Who Makes?

[Silber Igel]

Who is making the TOYOTA brand 0W20 these days...??

 

[ARCOgraphite]

The packaging at my Toyota Service Center Parts Dept looked liked Mobil's - inconclusive, for sure.

Doubt is Mobil 1....Mobil one supplying factory fill for some german manufactures but I have heard no evidence that they are producing oil for Toyota....

Anyone else know about Toyota oil? I hear it is good stuff

Mobil does not always = mobil one.

Toyota, if in the wide mouth bottles, is probably close to clean 5000/superflo. Then again the 0w20 could be radically different from the 5w20.

Makes sense it would be Mobil, since Mobil makes Toyota T-IV transaxle fluid.

Now there is a definitive source for correct information

You have to ask which grade, as the OEM may vary by grade. The 0w-20 is special with ~ 800PPM moly. There was a long thread on ths oil a couple months ago.

interesting.

originally Idemitsu or Nippon oil OEM for Honda or Toyota 0w: Wiki answers are prefered over BITOG experts? I guess BITOG is toast then.
