The 2010 Toyota Corolla's 1.8 liter 4Cylinder engine requireS4.4 US quarts of 0W-20 with a filter. The 2.4 liter 4Cylinder useS4 US quarts of 5W-20 or 0W-20. Oil and filter changes should be scheduled every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if using fully synthetic lubricants, or every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months, if filling with conventional oil. The advantages of using synthetic vs conventional products include better lubrication among moving parts, a longer interval between service appointments and enhanced effectiveness under adverse weather conditions. A motor oil with a thinner viscosity moves more easily in colder temperatures, coating engine components efficiently and providing better protection against friction and corrosion. The cost for the Toyota Corolla's lube and filter change averages $100-$115 in materials and labor.
