Description of the problem | Bought 09 camry new. In 2015, @ 130,000 miles, the "low oil" warning light came on. Took it to the dealer to do the oil consumption test, (they overfilled the engine with oil). When came back in 1200 miles was told the car is burning oil but not enough for toyota to cover the repair (since they overfilled the engine with oil) the car continued to consume more oil. Now at 170,000 miles, the car burns around 2 qrts of oil every 1000. Very disappointing. |
