- My Toyota RAV4 2008 was burning 1 L engine oil per 1000 KM with terrible white smoke behind the tail. After the repair, the oil burning down to 1/4 L per 1000 km and no more white smoke.
The most important step of the repair was asked a friend to push the vehicle move several meters without start up the engine, so that all the Sea Foam in the spark plug holes to be removed. Before move the vehicle, need to shift the gear knob to Reverse position, and then push vehicle backward 3 meters. And then shift the gear knob to Drive position, and push forward 3 meters. After that, start the vehicle and drive for 20 to 30 minutes to burn off the Sea Foam.
We will see lots of white smoke coming out of the pipe tail for the first 10 minutes. That’s OK, because after that, the smoke being normal.
That’s how I fixed the oil burning problem for less than $100. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Creepy music but amazing video thank you lol. Quality of the video was excellent. I cleaned out my engine I’m going to try Lucas first next oil change I’ll consider your technique it looks great thank you again
Just a following up. It really works on my vehicle. The mileage on my Rav4 is 250k km now, and no more oil consumption recently. It's probably because I used the Mobil 1 high mileage 5W30 on every engine oil change. Please thumbs up so more people could get the ideas from this video to fix their vehicles. Thank you!
any update after 2 years?
Your stuck oil rings must be not too bad. Good job! Have you thought regularly do engine flush like twice every year to keep the sludge and gunk away?
Cannot thank you enough. My mom car has the same issue.
How is the car right now after these years passed?
Did this work in the long run and solved the problem?
I have a Scion tC 05 ,When I changed my spark plug I notice two of the spark plug were wet with oil, I removed my valve cover and realized my gasket is worn out. So I ended replacing the valve cover gaskets but I still have white smoke coming out of exhaust. I clean the oil out of the coil wells and I also clean the spark plug with the degreaser but the problem persists? And my check engine light is on 😑🙁…any suggestions?
I'm going to try the ATS Chemical 505 CRO oil system treatment that is poured in the crankcase.
Scotty Kilmer swears this product does help break up the carbon that builds on the rings causing Toyota's to burn oil such as in the 2AZ-FE.
Have you tried it yet?
no
Really such a shame they banged in those 2AZ-FE's in so many models...Should be a recall to swap with the 2.5L dual vtt-i...
Oil burns blue, not white !
He is an idiot lies on us
Im about to do that to my titan. I have replaced old sparkplugs valve covers pcv valves and hoses and still smokes bluish greyish smoke. I hope this is a fix for my truck.
Hey, have you tried the fix yet?
??????
How many miles when you did this? I have the same engine/problem with over 170k
It was 230k km on my Toyota Rav4.
It really works on my vehicle. The mileage on my Rav4 is 250k km now, and no more oil consumption recently. It's probably because I used the Mobil 1 high mileage 5W30 on every engine oil change.
@@benny-vlogdiyandsharing8149 Does your vehicle specify 5w-30? Mine says 0w-20 or 5w-20 for the same engine.
@@JazzyJonas The manual says to use 5W20, but since my Rav4 has 250k km high mileage, so I go with 5W30 with no problems.
@@benny-vlogdiyandsharing8149 so basically 155k miles, it’s safe to switch to a heavier oil???
My rav don’t have no smoke 💨
Runs fine
But damn it I keep putting a gallon of 5w-20 every 1300 miles 195k
Are you sure that is the correct grade of oil to use? Doesn't sound right.
its going into your catalytic converter @Alexis Tellez
I think the oil should be 5w30
A GALLON EVERY 1300!?!?!
my car has the same 2AZFE engine, it uses a litre oil every 1.3 thousand kms....but no white or Blue smoke and no visibile leaks...any idea what could have gone wrong?
the 2.4 liter 2AZ-FE is a known engine to burn oil unfortunately. They designed the piston rings wrong, you can even find this information on wikipedia
Replace your valve cover gasket , $40 fix and videos online
@@daryldombrowski1551 whats this to do with the oil burning?
@@jimshi8817 Absolutely nothing.......
Hello! Will the engine get cold after driving the car for 20mins before changing the oil?
My rav4 06 burning a gallon every 1300
I do maintenance
Tune up everything
Ima try this next time I do my oil change
195k
You need to replace the valve cover gasket. Somewhat easy job and there are videos on TH-cam
A GALLON EVERY 1300?!?!?
I can't push the car without starting it up, wth do I do?
Crank engine with spark plugs out, this will blow it all out.
Does it really work if u got oil on plugs
If you have oil on the plugs you need to change your valve cover gasket aswell as your plugs and wires. I just got a car and i guess oil is leaking into spark plugs causing it to smoke so im going to replace the valve cover gasket and hopefully it runs and idles better.
service campaign for new rings a piston tops
me personally believe sticky oil rings because of extended oil change mileage tore down many of these engines.
What is sea foam where i can buy ?
Hi there, 1. Sea Foam Motor Treatment is a multi-functional formula that can be used in gas, ethanol, diesel or bio-diesel, oil, injector and carbon cleaning machines. 2. You can buy it at Canadian Tire, Amazon.com or other hardware stores.
Don’t use sea foam. Sea foam is covering up a problem that you should just try and fix because seafoam is like putting a bandaid onto a stab wound.
ISN'T THAT A TOYOTA ENGINE???
Yes is toyota
😂 why the weird music.
spark plugs and white smoke doesn't relate.
isnt that caused by a blown head gasket?
This guy don’t know what’s he’s talking about btw
This is a engine mechanical failure from inside
So u can do what ever u want still gonna burn oil
Not so fast Tellez.... there's lots of reading to be done. Dried, caked oil sludge around the rings can make them stick tight around the piston, then oil is not wiped down as it should be, and loss of compression from the upper rings sticking, also blow-by. Clean the rings, and if you're lucky, you can get it to be better than before.
@@imgonnagogetthepapersgetth8347 no no it’s an engine design failure lol nothing will fix it
