Yaris burning oil

[tmontague]

If you Yaris is burning a Liter every 1k and you have just over 100k km on it then you need to check your PCV valve. A healthy Toyota engine does not and should not burn through oil at that mileage.

If you had well over 300k km and it had a hard life (traffic, tough climate) then burning that oil would be considered expected.

When my engine gets to that point i'll be tossing in a 2zr but I have 155k km on my engine and zero oil consumption. That is with an engine driven hard but meticulously cared for and 13k km oil change intervals on 0w30 synthetic (as per a used oil analysis).

I don't expect to be seeing any oil consumption until. Well above 250k km.

Remove the PCV valve every oil change and spray it clean with some brake or throttle body cleaner so that it rattles freely when shaken.
