Description of the problem	Re: 2005 toyota avalon. Lubrication oil leak from the vvti oil line. Toyota is aware there is a defect in this part but only will fix it if they see immediate leaking and the vehicle is under 60,000 miles. I have an appointment to bring my car in on october 1, 2010. But have been advised if they do not see oil spurting from the line there will be a 95. 00 charge for inspection and they will not fix the defect. In the past 3 weeks i have added 2 quarts ofoil to the engine. The vehicle has approx. 42,00 miles on it. My mechanic has told me this problem is with the 2005 models only. The angle of the oil line is too severe causing the tube to fail and leak oil.
