| Description of the problem | The engine oil consumption is excessive in my rav4. It is using about a quart or more per 1,000 miles. The toyota dealer says this is normal oil consumption for this engine. I see many other reports of this same problem being reported on this web site and other owners receiving the same response from their toyota dealers nationwide. This is not routine and will cause unexpected engine failure and/or engine seizing. *js |
