The service dept manager of the local Toyota dealer suggested to this business owner (in their email) that they should bring their vehicle in for servicing a bit more regularly than once every 100,000 kms... The quote for repairs (new engine) was $7000 plus labour on a vehicle that was probably worth much less... Some people just don't get it eh!
Surprisingly, I saw this Camry back on the road a month later... go figure!

Maybe this is why BMW changed the oil change interval from 15,000 miles.
