Please Help by IamAlexander: 9:18am On Feb 06, 2017 |
Hello Experts in the house, I drive a 2009 toyota camry with a mileage less than 120,000km. From the start, i service it every 3months. However, I notice that before the mileage got to this, somewhere below 100,000KM when i do the service, i don't have to add engine oil again until next service but this is not the case anymore. Ever since the mileage is above 100,000KM, this has changed. I have to buy 2litre oil before its due for next service to top it as i get ''Low Oil Pressure'' notification on the dash board. Mind you, I was thinking probably it could be the engine wearing-out but it doesn't smoke. Please what is the problem. Why is my engine shorting oil? And what is the solution. |

What type of engine oil do you use? |

I changed to Mobil xhp when the problem started. |

IamAlexander: Overhaul engine. Valve stem seals and piston rings replacement. That's the cheaper option. |

in addition, use original Oem parts, measure bores and decide on the best decision when installing piston rings. If the bores are worn you will not get good results. |
