Frequently Asked Questions

Why is an oil change important for a 2007 Toyota Highlander Hybrid?

• Preserves engine lubrication: fresh oil reduces friction between moving parts of the 3.3L V6 and helps prevent premature wear.
• Maintains fuel efficiency: clean oil keeps the engine running efficiently, which helps the Hybrid system deliver its expected city/highway MPG.
• Protects hybrid components: our technicians include hybrid-specific safety checks to protect the combustion engine and related systems during service.
