Morning ran a country trip on the weekend about 400kms round trip. The car run fine smooth and tight on the road. Start up last couple of mornings no smoke 🙂. I will check oil regularly and we will change and flush at 3000km and may remove sump than, thanks lew

Afternoon all my mechanic sent me some pics. There was a lot of sludge and took 6 goes of degreaser and kero and pressure wash to clear out all the sludge, the other pics are the sensers before and after. I don't have the car back yet, looking forward to a drive and see how it is.

Hi all just brought a 2015 GX with 1000005kms and on all start ups blowing heaps of smoke. I have read forums and believe the motor is sludged up. Had my mechanic do a flush full service and new plugs, compression is very good. But still tons of smoke. I will do more regular service 3000 to 5000km. Has any one added a oil catch can to help remove oil vapours
