2GR-FE Blade Master servicing

[molex]

Hey all

Looking to get some guidance as to service intervals, recommended oil and what's actually checked by the dealership and when.

There's a lot of conflicting information out there around 2GR-FE powered vehicles and I have no concrete source for answers that's actually in english!

Mine's a 2008 Blade Master, just ticked over 37,000KM. Last oil change was done by the dealer when it was brought in at 32KM's just over 8 months ago. I have zero idea what oil/filter etc was used and I could do with the peace of mind knowing it's been done correctly.

Anybody know of or have a good source for advice on these? Obvious answer is to go visit Toyota themselves and I probably will do that, I just wanted to do some research first. Proving surprisingly hard!

this is a translated version of the owners manual, don't know if that will help you at all. Maybe flick them an email to ask if the info your after is in it.

If its like the Aurion the service interval is 15,000k o_O. Will check grade later today. From memory they hold a lot of oil, >6 litres

Thanks mate, that is hugely helpful. Where did you manage to hunt those down?

Will probably purchase the manuals too, cheers for the link.

Some high quality 5-30w and a genuine filter will be on its way soon
