What engine oil and oil filter? Oil change intervals?

Purolator response: There is no Purolator Boss version of the PL11411 as you are already aware.

Tech seems a little testy with our questions lol
I recently received similar response without explanation on why Boss works in 2018 Camry but not Tacoma.

I wrote - 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Offroad gas L4 2.4l Turbo.
It's factory filter is 90915-YZZN1 (NA) or 90915-10009 (Japan made and installed from factory)
Cross reference that puts me into your One 11411 and no Boss option.
Here's the curious part however, the 2018 Toyota Camry also uses the 90915-YZZN1 and cross reference puts it into One 11411, Purolator Boss 14476, or One 14476.
Does the Boss 14476 also then correlate to the new Tacoma?

"Mike,

Toyota 90915-YZZN1 crosses to Purolator PL11411, we have not made a decision to offer this in a Boss version."

If you can see them at a store ( One 11411, Purolator Boss 14476, or One 14476) you should be able to tell holding them next to each other whether they would work.

At the risk of starting an oil debate, here is something I found on another site:


I I wasn't sure if this was going to be an issue but actually ow-20 far out performs ow-30 oil which is why it's more expensive, here is a really good write up of the differences. Essentially 0w-30 does not protect your engine nearly as well as 0w-20 but is ideal for more extreme temperatures (temperatures of over 400°F).

While the 0w30 motor oil promises to protect your engine from tear, the 0w20 motor oil does this in a more outstanding and dramatic way. According to a study that was carried out with the 0w20 motor oil, it was revealed that this motor oil leaves your motor parts about four times (4×) smoother.

The 0w20 motor oil offers you a much more superior wear and tear protection on some of the essential or vital parts of the engine. The 0w30 motor oil, on the other hand, does not offer you the same assurance. When it comes to viscosity breakdown, the 0w20 motor oil happens to offer you a higher and unsurpassed level of protection that the 0w30 motor oil cannot offer.

id rather believe my cousin whos a tribologist for 7 yrs and work for valvoline and spits out 110% facts rather than some dude that speculates.. EPA regulates this lightweight oils for the USA bec of smog and fuel efficiency. its ok to go 1 weight above whats recommended but you will loose a very tiny fraction of mpg (0.5mpg) i wouldnt go to much details but this is what he has to say.

Is the standard 0w-20 Toyota genuine synthetic motor oil all we need for our trucks or did Toyota update their genuine oil to be specific for the 2024 tacomas?

The oil is not unique to the Tacoma. Any 0W-20 spec engine can run it.

I use Costco 0W-20. Same stuff as Walmart Super Tech and Amazon Basics. Comparable to Mobil 1 in tests.

X2 I run Kirkland Synthetic. Price is approx. $3.50/qt buying in bulk online. 12 qts at a time.

Cheap enough to change it whenever you desire.

Manual says oil needs to be ILSAC GF-6A. I think anything meeting Dexos1 Gen3 would be optimal. Its a tighter spec with particular attention to turbo longevity and LSPI prevention.

All Dexos1 Gen3 is ILSAC GF-6A, but not all ILSAC is Dexos. You know, like how all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares.

You've got hundreds of choices.
