@ChrisRand-gf7lz 2 года назад

I had an '09 Matrix XR with the 2.4L Oil Burner. When it was newer I did a full exhaust system for (equal length 4-1 headers, high flow cat, 2.5" tubing, flowmaster 80 series), it was great fun, and it started burning oil around 110,000km. Funny thing though was when I returned the exhaust to stock with OEM parts when I was getting ready to sell it, that seemed to solve it. I would put it through the same driving as normal and same situations that would cause it to spit out a big blue cloud with the custom exhaust, but no matter what I did I there would be no cloud coming out.

@randyjamesvernon 9 месяцев назад

Thanks Scotty. My '08 XB was up to burning about 2-3 quarts between oil changes. I ran Liqui Moly Engine Flush about a year ago, which freed up my piston rings (I’m sure there was some crystallized sludge that kept the rings from doing their job). I ran the product for 30 mins (a little longer than they recommended) then drained and added fresh oil. Doesn't burn anymore, I mean nothing, like brand new. These engines are for the most part bullet proof, just need a little TLC to keep them going. I'm at 204K and still going strong 😊 Thanks again for what you do!

Got a 07 Toyota Camry and it definitely burns oil. I just listen to Scotty & my mechanic and just keep the oil changes going. And it still runs good.

I put 306,000 miles on my '03 Camry before it died. And the only reason it died was because I had slacked off on the oil changes.

I have an 08 scion xb I bought new used oil from the start tried getting the pistons replaced but they said it passed inspection so I put a couple quarts in between oil changes and kept driving it it has 170000 miles still runs like a champ have no plans of getting rid of it.when it blows up in another couple hundred thousand miles then I will probably salvage it with no regrets!

I have a 2002 Camry with the 2AZ-FE engine. It does not use any oil, but only had 49,000 miles on it. I change the oil at 3,000 or 1 year and hope the pistons and rings last longer than I do. My oil filler only says use 5W-30 oil.

Darn. This makes sense. I have a RAV4 with this engine and since I've bought it, it has been burning oil every 1500-1700 miles or so. Smh. I took it Toyota and they said they would charge me to fix it. I couldn't afford it so I'm just living with it. I tried using Lucas oil. It pretty much worked. Then I tried a heavier weight oil, that also worked. I'm not sure what kind of damage I'm doing to my engine but it isn't burning oil lol. I will probably sell it in the future anyways.

I guess the thing about Scions is they were marketed towards a younger demographic, who wouldn't really be interested in a boring Toyota (although, I have to admit, the GR Corolla and Yaris don't look very boring to me). What I thought was interesting about Scions was how much you could customize it.

But it’s a lifted Scion xB, and we have a group of lifted xB enthusiasts that can be very more useful for weather conditions, and better ride. Now yes u are not a fan of lifting vehicles because it messes up the suspension’s geometry, but with a comparison to rav4 that shares the same platform and have some spacers to correct the geometry, they are still excellent vehicles and handles much better. I’d be glad to show u my built and show the rest of the people, of what these lifted xB can really do.

Young mechanics feel the need for pecking orders. I work alone too the best advice I can give people who are "still learning" is watch n learn. There is a reason you have two eyes,ears and one mouth. It's better than what I was told as a young mechanic " boy, I done forgotten more than you will ever know". I made a point to prove them wrong. Scotty does a great service by sharing his knowledge with those who are willing to listen.
