Just a heads up as i got a letter today, apparently the 1997-1999 celica has a problem with oil gel and toyota will pay for any repairs (old or new) relating to it. you can check out www.oilgelsettlement.com for more info about it. sorry if this is a repost i didn't see anything when i did a search.

oil sludge problem, it's common in some 5sfe's, especially if you don't change the oil. this is why you should be religious about changing the oil on our cars.
my buddy's MR-2 had a simliar problem, but it isn't a later year 5s like this lawsuit claims. it was a 91 and still had the 'gel' issue. glad to see this is getting fixed. |
