Checking the engine oil
With the engine at operating temperature and turned off, check the oil level on the dipstick.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground. After warming up the engine and turning it off, wait about 5 minutes for the oil to drain back into the bottom of the engine.
2. Holding a rag under the end, pull the dipstick out.
3. Wipe the dipstick clean.
4. Reinsert the dipstick fully.
5. Holding a rag under the end, pull the dipstick out and check whether the oil level is above low level mark.
- Low level mark
The shape of the dipstick may differ depending on the type of vehicle or engine.
6. Wipe the dipstick and reinsert it fully.
NOTICE
■To prevent serious engine damage
Check the oil level on a regular basis.
■Engine oil consumption
certain amount of engine oil will be consumed while driving. In the following situations, oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be refilled in between oil maintenance intervals.
- When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle or after replacing the engine
- If low quality oil or oil of an inappropriate viscosity is used
- When driving at high engine speeds or with a heavy load, or when driving while accelerating or decelerating frequently
- When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently through heavy traffic
■Engine oil level rise
If the vehicle is repeatedly driven without the engine warmed up, moisture caused by dew condensation inside the engine or fuel which did not burn mixes into the engine oil, resulting in a rise in engine oil level. However, this is not a malfunction.
For example, the engine become difficult to be warmed up in the following situations.
- When driving a short distance
- When driving at a low speed
- When the outside temperature is low
When checking the engine oil, make sure that the engine is warmed up. If the engine oil level exceeds the refill upper limit mark, contact your Toyota dealer.

Circuit description
When the idle switch is turned on, a signal is sent to the cruise control ecu
assy. The cruise control ecu
assy uses this signal to correct the discrepancy between the throttle valve
position and the actuator position
sensor values to enable accurate cruise control at the set speed. If the idl ...
Monitor description
The battery supplies electricity to the ecm even when the ignition switch is
off. This electricity allows the
ecm store data such as dtc history, freeze frame data, fuel trim values, and
other data. If the battery voltage
falls below a minimum level, the ecm will conclude that there is a fault ...
