I think you can???? Because they recommend for you to start the oil when your car is fully functioning. They stated cars with leakage and use large amounts shouldn't change to Amsoil. There are shops that will do Amsoil but I couldn't tell you how much it is. Might be more since they say you can drive 7,500 miles on a oil change with Amsoil. Remember tCs are okay to drive in snow. I just don't recommend to buy one during a snow storm. LOL You'll have to learn how to drive it first before taking on snow. I have tricks to drive in the snow with my car and get by. My hidden trick with all season tires to keep traction on the snow is....rotating tires every month during the winter. |

Trust me do what he said.... If you look closer at my wheels, you'll see wheel damage caused by driving on this everyday!  Stupid city has to plow my neighborhood LAST in the whole city!   That's okay, cause I get paid three times during October. So I'm taking that money and going to a tire shop and buying myself some 17 inch winter tires for my OEMs. Then next Spring, I will go back and buy myself 18 inch all seasons with sport wheels. Maybe if I get bored with them, I'll go with 18 inch chrome wheels with Summer tires then when I want to go to the drag strip... I'll switch them out with the sport wheels. Trust me if I do have three sets of wheels.... I'll use all sets during the year. Since I'll be saving tread throughout the whole year. |

Replying to: heybroder (Aug 25, 2008 6:43 am) link title Here's another wheel, 18in. link title You can get a wheel and tire package for less than a wheel package will cost you at the dealership. Plus they are ready to mount when you get them or you can have them drop shipped at a recommended installer and have them installed for a nominal charge. I've been doing business with them for over 10 years. They are the best.!

I've been doing alot of research within the past twenty minutes. I've noticed how many p*ssed off Toyota owners are there in the World. I think I might "spy" at my valves and see if they are "oil clean" or they are "sludge clean" then go from there. If my valves are clean then I'm very lucky to find it this soon and stop by the dealer's service shop see what they recommend. I'm praying its something minor like me changing the oil twice prior to 5k like 4,5-4,6k. I didn't do it this time? Or next time I wait to competely drain out the oil and wait for an hour not fifteen minutes. Some people on Scionlife are telling me to change grade of 5-30?

I'll still probably buy another tC or a Toyota. Hey Mack! What about these? http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdID=14795 or these http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=15177 or... http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/MiniWheelSearchServlet?nonWinter=true&partNum=BA7- - 5835B33BMF&autoMake=Scion&autoModel=tC&autoYear=2007&autoModClar=&wIndex=122&gri- - d=true&sw=1024 http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/MiniWheelSearchServlet?nonWinter=true&partNum=W01- - 71020122MGS&autoMake=Scion&autoModel=tC&autoYear=2007&autoModClar=&wIndex=121&gr- - id=true&sw=1024 Plus, I know independent tire shop that sells at wholesale prices and they can order any wheel cheaper than anywhere else.
