Celica 4-cyl

  • 190,000 miles
This vehicle has ( according to all sources available ) burned oil from the time it left the plant brand new, most 2000 to 2002 Toyota Celica GT's have this issue as the rings were bad. Toyota has never produced a recall for this issue and it has effected thousands of vehicles.Toyota did change the rings out for the 2003 models and newer, so they did know the problem existed.this has caused many Celica's to experience blown motors.
