oic...so u hv ask how much cost 4 top overhaul?? i oso juz add oil n use like tat more than 7-8month liao....if use 20-50w oil will it better? wat oil u use??alex... you have the exact same symptoms as i have.....
it basicly eats when you rev up ur engine quite high (possibility when vvt on)
at that point some or your valve seals are abit old/worn off so on high rev the oil will pass through the valve seals.
Actually there is some black/blue smoke at ur exshaust IF YOU HIGH REV
So go for a TOP OVERHAUL....
ME? haven't overhauled mine... but i've been through many mechanics/foremen all said the same thing, but mahal for the hand work. so right now kumpul duit and meantime top up 1 lit every 2000KM~3000KM. still the engine would be fine...
wat grade engine oil suitable?...??Wtry to user thicker viscosity engine oil...
engine is old already...
tolerance changed a lot...got small gap for engine oil to slip through...
that day i've asked.... about ~RM2K (he bull lah.... part susah nak dapat all that BS)oic...so u hv ask how much cost 4 top overhaul?? i oso juz add oil n use like tat more than 7-8month liao....if use 20-50w oil will it better? wat oil u use??
wah....2k for top overhaul is damn kaw!!!...........how long edi u drive v makan minyk condition?15w40 u buy how much?....haiz....dono wana to overhaul or juz continue add oil like tat! how much ur petrol goes? mine rm70(250+km)..that day i've asked.... about ~RM2K (he bull lah.... part susah nak dapat all that BS)
then the foreman (using business method) why not full overhaul ~RM3K
then he said... "if u 1 to up 1.8 lit block, chop-chop ~RM4K"
but this is Jay Bee Price..... donno further north whats the price now.
I've tried varies of oils even 20W50, it'll still "makan" if high rev and even makan petrol too
now i stick with 10W40/15W40 (shell yellow bottle) cheap and easy to maintain....
I'm using 5W-40, 5W-50 (fully syn)& 10W-30 oil (semi syn) with no "oil eating" problem wor.:hmmmm:im using 20v st ....donno y car eat engine oil when after drive 1500km+?i check there no leaking around engine n oso no white smoke or wat coming out from ekzos??i using enoes semi 10-40 oil?
i'm using BT 6speed, RM50 for ~ 160KM (new price 2.45) damn kaw......wah....2k for top overhaul is damn kaw!!!...........how long edi u drive v makan minyk condition?15w40 u buy how much?....haiz....dono wana to overhaul or juz continue add oil like tat! how much ur petrol goes? mine rm70(250+km)..
Bro, SVT???I'm using 5W-40, 5W-50 (fully syn)& 10W-30 oil (semi syn) with no "oil eating" problem wor.:hmmmm:
Here's my scenario:
When I got my halfcut, the mileage on it was 55+k kms but the top gasket was leaking. So while transplanting the engine, I bought a top set gasket kit (cost me about RM 500 for the original Toyota) which consists of valve seals, top gasket, oil seals ....blah, blah..Got all those stuff in the kit changed before I took my car from the workshop.
So I suspect the culprit is your valve seals, that's all. Unless your engine has already clocked quite high mileage, than probably it's time you change your piston rings; they're probably worn, like what sifu chinozie said.
Mine's a BT, not SVT.Bro, SVT???
my mileage is about ~150K now
RM500 +workmanship???
Coz in Jay Bee... most of the foreman never opened 20V b4, then they charge 99 (RM2K)!
when i said too expensive.... then they BS "sure got balance la...."
wat diffrent between top overhaul n full overhaul?? like wat part to change n price between 2??Mine's a BT, not SVT.
RM 500+ is not including workmanship; just the top set gasket kit. I heard my friend bought Taiwan made ones for only RM 300+, not very sure what's the details coz when I bought mine, the spare parts shop also quoted me 2 prices for it. One is RM 500+ & the other RM 300+.
Workmanship can't remember la, coz I didn't keep the receipts.
if black smoke come isit means will lost power ??alex... you have the exact same symptoms as i have.....
it basicly eats when you rev up ur engine quite high (possibility when vvt on)
at that point some or your valve seals are abit old/worn off so on high rev the oil will pass through the valve seals.

So go for a TOP OVERHAUL....

top overhaul is just takes of the top cam covers, the head and service them,wat diffrent between top overhaul n full overhaul?? like wat part to change n price between 2??
if your engine "lain macam" sure got issue....if black smoke come isit means will lost power ??
bro white smoke??? even with a hot engine? this is damn serious liao leh.......my is SEL, 1500cc, imported version, running on 5AFE engine. Experinced the same scenario, but white smoke is less, and only seem during high rev (more than 3k RPM). It seem like "eating" is not serious but leaking is serious. I top up ~1liter for 1500km. Still not able to source the leaking point, and I am thinking to do top overhaul. How much does the topset cost for 5AFE? is it same like standard 4AFE?
Please advice.
