Toyota Corolla 2000 Short Oil, Help by jendoslim(m): 1:58pm On May 14, 2021
Good day Gurus,

I have a corolla 2000 (Okerejuowo) that shorts oil, every 2 weeks I must top the oil in the vehicle,
My distance for a month doesn't exceed from Mainland to Island, Mon-Fri
Also, whenever I depressed the accelerator, I noticed smokes from the tail pipe

Kindly help with solution as no money to purchase another vehicle now.

Lol, thanks Oga mi,
I dont see oil on ground where I packed it overnight,
So, I will inform the mechanic to look for worn out pistons and rings

I am not in Lagos, I know this will be sorted out once

Don't waste your time n money in changing piston rings n valve seals cos it won't last more than a year at most. Just replace the engine with another one.

thank God u mentioned original rings in your comment. Most times out kazeems will charge u for an original rings and then shortchange u by buying a cheap one which will hardly last upto 6months. Oyibos use very good original expensive rings make the guy just top up n buy a new engine n have peace of mind.
