    135k miles. Coolant looks fine both color and level.


    Well I'm 95% sure the front seal is leaking. Drove it further and it's running down from behind the crank pully.

    If the rear is leaking it's very small, still might drive it further and see if i can confirm a leak or not. Having a trusted family friend/mechanic look at it today.

    I had to have the front timing cover gaskets replaced on my 2006 at about 125,000. Luckily it was still under the used vehicle warranty from the Toyota Dealer, so it only cost me about $100 for the deductible, rather then over $1000! According to the repair order they did several other seals and gaskets at the same time while in there, so I hope I'm good for a while longer.

    try cleaning it best you really can,, and start it and rev it up real good a few times for a few minutes.. May help with the wind scatterin the oil and non being able to pin point the leak. This worked better for me finding mine,
