My celica is burning a little oil and it only does it when I first start my car off (a little poof) and when I down shift or when I shift at High RPMs. I've been driving my car like an old lady latly to prevent it from getting worse so I need to know. Did I crack one of my piston rings? if so how can I get it checked and how much money would it cost?
Thanks, -Brandon -------------------- ![]() |

I dont think it would be cracked. Norm when the are cracked u loose the piston. My guess is there just warn. I have the same problem, i burn small amounts of oil over time. Try getting rislone, its a thickner agent, that should help.
