5k even though it looks brand new at the end of the interval.

Manual states 10k but I just don’t trust that.

5K or less as well as air and cabin filters. I'm in a lot of dust.

10K with changes is too long in my opinion. Toyotas have historically had sludge issues with extended oil changes. The 6.6 QT capacity of the 4.0L V6 might help fight this issue though.

I do find it funny that Toyota says every 10K miles so as long as they're paying the bill with the first two free changes, but then wants you back every 5k miles once out of free maintenance.

Sludge hasn’t been an issue si ce they moved to 0W-20.

Every 10k - not even once a year.

2010 sr5, 100,00 miles

Original owner. I only drive mine about 10,000 miles a year mostly off roading in the forest. I change mine every 5,000 miles in spring and fall. I'm pretty sure it'll run strong for the rest of my life.

Not sure what you mean about the inconsistent service recommendation; the manual and our dealer have always been clear on 10k. I did the first early - at 5k - because I am OCD.

Sludging is an old issue. It isn’t going to happen today without serious neglect by the owner, and definitely not with 10k changes on modern synthetic oils. That being said I am sure someone can find someone or post a photo purporting serious sludging. My money is on the manufacturer’s R&D, not internet rumors.

When you say "lube chassis", are you talking about the driveline?

First oil change was at 1k, then again at 5k. Now at 7900 miles. We bought it in 2/2021. It’s the wife’s daily driver and sees about 5k/year. A few more months and it will be time to change the oil and rotate the tires/inspection.

Same with ours (1,000 mile oil change) and plan in general. Will bring it into the dealer at 10K for the complimentary inspection, oil change and tire rotation.

I start to think about it at 5k and it gets done before 7500. If I drove more like I was pre-covid I'd probably do 10k intervals. But at this rate I'm doing about one OC per year.
