2008 Highlander Burning Oil by Readonee35L(m): 10:26am On Oct 04, 2019
Hello Guys.
I have a 2008 Highlander.
179k original miles.
Oil Type mobil 1 usa spec
Vehicle was imported a year ago.
Engine type 2GR-FE

For a month now vehicle brings out blue smoke at cold startup for 10 seconds and disappears (does this after restinf for the whole night ). No matter how hard you drive it doesnt smoke.
Oil cooler lines are okay.
Performance is excellent.

Vehicle was serviced last month and has barely covered 500miles. But now it's short .

Still suspecting what might be wrong.
Will update thread again.
Ideas are also welcomed smiley smiley

your valve stem seals are shot (very likely)

Also get under the engine and inspect for leaks.
