What oil do you use?
I use whatever 5W-30 SAE brand the Toyota stealership uses. Have never had a problem with oil leaks.

I just got mine last week and will be changing the oil with Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W-30 and a Fram Ultra oil filter.

7 qts? Odd
I use Mobile 1 synthetic 5W30 or 10w30, whatever’s cheaper. If both the same then 10w30. Change it every 3000-3500.
