Which Toyota Tacoma generation do you have?

Specifications change at generation boundaries, not every model year. Two cars four years apart often take the identical oil, filter, and battery. These are the generations we hold data for.

About the Toyota Tacoma

The Toyota Tacoma has been America's best-selling midsize pickup for two decades, and the 2012–2025 span covers three mechanically distinct trucks. 0L 1GR-FE V6 with old-school 4- and 5-speed automatics and a 5,000-mile oil interval. 4B settlement.

5L 2GR-FKS with an Atkinson-capable direct+port injection system, a 6-speed automatic that generated years of shift-quality complaints and TSB reflashes, 0W-20 oil on a 10,000-mile interval, and two early recalls (rear differential leak, crank sensor stalling). 4L i-FORCE turbo four, alone or as the 326-hp i-FORCE MAX hybrid, through an 8-speed automatic whose early failures triggered a warranty TSB and a class action. 2 gal on the 4th gen), a body-on-frame chassis that owners keep well past 200k miles, and heavy owner traffic around oil capacity (it changed every generation), tire sizes that differ by trim, and recall lookups.
