Blown Engine

I have had my IS300 for 9 months now, and the engine is blown up!!! I havent driven it hard at all. Has anyone else had this problem?

Also, where is the best place to get a new engine??? Has anyone had good luck with having it rebuilt???

Re: Blown Engine

Welcome to AF!

Sorry to hear about your engine. Do you let anyone else drive it? Do you keep the oil level up to specs? Do you change the oil often enough? You better find out why it died before you spend money on a new one.
