I did what I told myself I wouldn't do and replaced the spark plugs. To my horror, there's some oil on the thread of the spark plug on cylinder 1 (it's not that bad) and the ignition coil boot looks perfectly fine. I took a rag and tried to clean up any oil in cylinder 1 but it was clean. Cylinder 2 spark plug is mostly white at the electrode, so something's up. Spark plugs from cylinder 3 and 4 look ok. Car has 146,500KM.
Toyota are reliable and well-built? This is a lie! Today felt like working on a BMW! I need a new car!
