Hey all, I finally have my 1997 Camry oil leak free and it stays dry underneath. However, between my 3000-mile oil change intervals I am adding between 1.5 - 2 quarts of oil to ensure the oil level stays full (keep in mind that I believe with the filter the total oil capacity is about 3.8...

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a nice 2022. I have a 1991 Camry that is losing oil. The car has the 2.0L 3S-FE and the 5-speed manual trans. The odometer reads 163,500, and outside of this oil loss problem and a nonworking rear defroster, the car is in survivor condition...

I have a 2004 Camry with 180K miles. It burns about one quart every 400 miles. I changed PCV and used more viscus oil, but see no improvement. I heard of Mystery Oil, would that likely to help? I know it probably needs a ring job, but.....

'03 corolla LE, 160,000 miles, bought less than a year ago for $6k, started having this problem 3 months after I bought it. Only burns oil at high RPM (doesn't come out exhaust &no leaks) and has a mild knock, more prominent when cold and/or driving up hills, but can barely hear knock when at...
