| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Have noticed for the past couple of months that a lot of blue-black smoke coming from the exhuaust upon startup. i have found out that a lot of toyotas have had engine failure caused by oil sludge build-up. now i'm concerned that the engine may fail soon. i have had regular oil changes (some done by toyota dealership and some by myself). the toyota dealer in coos bay assured me that this was not a problem and only happens once in about 25,000 cars. the facts seem to be quite different. |
