Have an extra litre or to be safe a whole gallon and check your oil level every morning! or worst case every 1,000 miles!!

Some of the stories on this issue are quite touching, matter of fact, for most of them by the time they notice the oil is too low it is too late since oil is to the engine what blood is to human life!

IdaraCHODB:
For the last 90 days on carcomplaints website 2007 Toyota Camry owners bitterly complained of the vehicle burning oil has been trending.

I have also been able to establish from the same website that the 2007 - 2008 Toyota Solara suffers from the same problem.

Indeed the description of the problem seems to fit the pattern described by the owner of a 2006 Toyota Solara as above, which leads me to the unsubstantiated but most likely true conclusion that he might have been mistaken in blaming the engine oil instead of the engine and by extension the manufacturer for his woes

Symptoms of excessive oil consumption include:

1. Having your "oil pressure" light come on halfway through your maintenance schedule

2. Having your engine burn through as much as 1 quart of oil in 1,200 miles

3. Being told that your engine burning through oil is "normal" and "nothing to be alarmed of"

4. Having t come back with a damaged, oil-deprived engine only to be denied warranty coverage.

You can confirm the above by running a search against the toyotaproblems website from which most of the above was sourced.

Arsène Wenger hit out at the referee, Martin Atkinson, after a 6-3 defeat that he claimed flattered Manchester City, arguing that a penalty decision and a couple of offsides that went against Arsenal affected the result in consigning them to their third league defeat of the season

Two goals from Spurs striker Harry Kane saw Arsenal collapse at White Hart Lane after going ahead through Mesut Ozil.

But while Wenger hit out at his team for their poor performance he also blamed the referee.

Ref Martin Atkinson booked five Arsenal players and Wenger appeared incensed at a tackle from Danny Rose on Danny Welbeck that went unpunished.

When two elephants fight….the grass bears the brunt. Such was the case between two top EPL contenders last night, in a game that ended goalless. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has come out to denounce the input of the referee indicating that Monday night’s opponents Liverpool have hugely benefited from officiating decisions in the last week.

Arsène Wenger accused Massimo Busacca, the Swiss referee, of killing Arsenal’s Champions League tie against Barcelona last night after his side were knocked out of the competition in controversial fashion at the Nou Camp.

Update:
After almost two weeks of battling with my oil leak, I think I finally fixed the damn thing.
Initially, we thought it was my bottom pan but after remounting it twice and finally replacing it with a new one, we kept seeing oil down there and my oil level kept going down. We then had to think out of the box. My mech opened the plastic covering the timing belt and lo and behold, the whole place was messed up with oil. It was leaking obviously from the crankshaft oil seal and oil pump oil seal. It drains down to mess up the pan making us think the pan is the culprit. We changed both oil seals. I'll still watch to make sure it has completely stopped.
So, to all those facing oil shortages after going back to 5w-20, just go under there, find where it's dropping from and plug it up. Nothing to worry about. Check the pan and all the oil seals on the block.
The oil starts leaking because it's much lighter than the 20w-50 which you have been using and therefore penetrates worn cleavages that 20w-50 would not penetrate.
I think the ppl that got knocked engine were not observant enough to notice the leakage and eventually they had an empty engine that knocked. Common sense should tell us that an engine with the recommended oil IN IT should not knock unless the oil is no longer in it.
So my own advice, change to the recommended oil, your engine won't knock. Mine didn't. Just watch out for leaks over a week or two of active driving. If any leaks, fix it ASAP and your engine will be happy. If you don't watch out for leaks by checking your oil regularly, ur oil might drain completely and ur engine will pack.

6years! Don't know the oil change intervals but I can guess, sludge is presently protecting the engine from failure, once you introduce "the original" but a thiner oil that takes car of the sludge problem, then you start having the oil shortages, then the rattling then finally the knock. Iv seen it happen twice.

I only pity amaechi, he lost both the war and the battle.

debosky:
^^ I don't think this is a January issue. Alexis hit the post twice against Stoke alone. . . .that will not keep happening as he regains sharpness.

Ditto for Theo - yes he missed quite a few chances but I'm confident getting one will increase his confidence.

bravesoul2:
Please gurus in the house what type of engine oil and transmission oil would you recommend for Toyota Rav4 1998 model?

Pataki:
Of course you are right. But my point is that even the best strikers in the world can be found missing in a game attimes.

Pataki:
And yet their last game against Malaga, their MSN could not find the net for 90 minutes. It took a Verminator (a defender) who had been rotting on the bench to score their only winning goal.
