Must read if you have oil probs

i had a previous thread before about loss of oil and i went to toyota and they started a record on how much oil i was losing per 1000km and it was 1l the first time and 1.3l the second time so under warranty they are swapping out the short block,
the 1zz block are supposedly know for this oil problem, but at higher mileage mine is only at 77000km

i suggest looking into it if you are losing oil

well they will replace under warranty, you would htink by now they would realize the 1zz has problems and not act so surprised when people tell them about it
