My 2001 Toyota Echo oil light came on so I checked the oil and it was full. I drove to the place where my oil was changed last and my engine light came on. The light stayed on until I turned off my engine and would reappear from time to time. When my car started making a loud clanking noise, I got concerned and was ready to take it to the dealer when it completely lost power and I had it towed to the dealer. There they tell me that because I did not maintain my vehicle properly, engine oil sludge occurred. I proved to them my vehicle was very well maintained for over 5 years so why the sludge. They informed me that because I bought my car used, the previous owner did not maintain the car properly. It was a leased car that I bought used in 2003. The dealer is telling me it will cost about $3000 to fix this problem.
