How often should I change the oil on a 2022–2026 Toyota Tundra?

Toyota recommends every 10,000 miles or 12 months under normal conditions using 0W-20 full synthetic oil. Under severe conditions — frequent towing, short trips under 5 miles, extreme temperatures, or dusty environments — shorten the interval to 5,000 miles or 6 months. Both the standard 3.5L i-Force twin-turbo and the i-Force Max hybrid use the same oil spec and interval.

What is the OEM oil filter part number for the 2022–2026 Toyota Tundra?

The OEM oil filter for all 2022–2025 Toyota Tundra models (both i-Force and i-Force Max) is Toyota part number 90915-YZZN3. This has been superseded on later production runs by 90915-10010 — both are the same Denso-manufactured filter and either is correct for your truck.

How many spark plugs does the 2022–2026 Toyota Tundra need?

The 3rd gen Tundra needs 6 spark plugs — not 4 or 8. The 3.5L V35A-FTS is a twin-turbocharged V6 engine with 6 cylinders, one plug per cylinder. Many owners and even some parts stores mistakenly assume 4 plugs (4-cylinder assumption) or 8 plugs (V8 assumption). Always order 6. Toyota recommends replacing every 40,000 miles on the 3rd gen Tundra.

What are the OEM air filter and cabin filter part numbers for the 3rd gen Tundra?

Engine air filter for all 2022–2026 Tundra models: 17801-F4010. Cabin air filter: 87139-0C010. Both fit the standard i-Force and i-Force Max hybrid. Replace the engine air filter every 30,000 miles and the cabin filter every 15,000 miles or annually.

Does the Toyota Tundra i-Force Max hybrid have a different maintenance schedule?

The i-Force Max shares all core maintenance intervals with the standard i-Force but adds hybrid-specific items: 12V auxiliary battery inspection annually, hybrid battery system inspection at each major service, inverter coolant inspection at 60,000 miles (replacement at 100,000), and brake fluid every 2 years due to regen braking. Brake pads also last significantly longer due to regenerative braking handling most light deceleration.

Is the 3rd gen Tundra twin-turbo V6 as reliable as the old 5.7L V8?

Early reliability concerns centered around the twin-turbocharged 3.5L V35A-FTS replacing the naturally aspirated 5.7L 3UR-FE that earned a legendary reputation. The V35A-FTS is now well into its second generation of ownership cycles and the available data suggests strong reliability when properly maintained — particularly following the recommended 10,000-mile oil change interval and using 0W-20 full synthetic. The turbos do add complexity versus the old V8, making consistent oil changes and air filter maintenance more critical.

Is there an app to track Toyota Tundra maintenance?

Yes — CarMaintenance.App is a free iOS app that tracks all service intervals for your Tundra, sends push reminders before each one hits, and supports both the i-Force and i-Force Max hybrid powertrains. No subscription required.
