Oil Consumption Issue

If you own a Scion tC made between 2004 and 2016, you may have noticed increased oil consumption in this model. Early models, particularly around 2007, were known for excessive oil consumption. If you notice this issue, please contact us so we can ensure you are using the correct grade of oil and following the recommended oil change intervals.

Engine Issue Repair

If you own a Scion FR-S (2012-2016), a commonly reported issue is engine ticking or knocking noises, mainly related to the valve train. Another common issue in early models is fuel pump chirping, which is caused by a high-pressure fuel pump and results in a distinctive chirping noise.
