    Inconsistent oil level - 2011 Lexus LX570

    Hi all, Hoping you folks can help shed some light on this weird anomaly I am encountering. I own a 2011 LX570 with 173k miles. I am currently running 0w-20 TGMO oil and have about 3500 miles on the oil. Recently I did a 600 mile road trip and about 200 miles in, I stop to get gas and I...

    What oil should I run in my 2011 LX570 - Switching from 0w20-5w30

    Thanks for your help everyone, sounds like I was asking for an advice on something that is not an issue. Regarding maintenance history, Lexus service records show oil changed every 5-7k miles since first owner. I am the 2nd.

    What oil should I run in my 2011 LX570 - Switching from 0w20-5w30

    You are correct, I have no solid data other than losing half a qt at 3,500 miles. Is it safe to assume a heavier oil would not evap/burn off?

    I roadtrip often to the Sierras and colder climates (nothing THAT cold right now) but during the winter I would see temps in the low 20s

    For my use would a 5w-30 or a 0w-30 be better?

    Keeping the viscosity at the OEM rec for cold starting to ensure fluid makes it way quick enough to lubricate components and bumping the 20-30 to ensure things stay lubricated and cool at higher temps and RPM At least thats how I understand it

    What oil should I run in my 2011 LX570 - Switching from 0w20-5w30

    I have been reading up on using the 5w-30 weight on ih8mud, Overseas Toyota calls for 5w30 and a wide range of weights for the 5.7. In the states it calls for 0w-20 and people are assuming its for CAFE standards. My truck is often loaded up with gear and either bashing through dunes or climbing...

    What oil should I run in my 2011 LX570 - Switching from 0w20-5w30

    I am probably way overthinking this. I have a 2011 Lexus LX570 (3UR-FE) (173kmiles) and am currently running TGMO in 0w-20. Recently I did a long road trip and hit the dunes and noticed when I got back I was half a quart low. (Last oil change was 3500k miles ago) No oil leaks. So I believe my...
