[MR2] MK III

[bob-schultz at comcast.net]

I haven't heard any engine problem directly with MR2's but I am at work and can't  see the TSB's here

The Camry had a problem in 2003 or 2004 and they installed a bunch of new lower ends for some reason and Toyota got in trouble with suggesting  with the recommended maintenance running oil for something like 7500 miles and having a sludge problem.

Neither would deter me from buying any newer Toyota
