Sad for this to be my first post, but here’s what appears to have happened to my 2011 lc200 with only 80k miles:
* brought into dealership for routine checkup, oil change and tire rotation
* did a few errands before returning home; parked it in the barn
* it sat for three days (not a DD)
* upon start, blows cloud of smoke (white/gray) - never happened before
* I check the oil: dipstick is sort of stuck, and there is no oil - at all.
No sign of any leaks on the floor, on the engine or undercarriage.
WTF?
Called dealership, they are goi g to arrange a tow to check it out.
If indeed they forgot to add oil, how much damage to the engine? Drove probably 30 miles? Does that seem possible? No lights were going off that I can remember …
Any tips for dealing with the dealership?!
