Took my avalon in for the last major service, and when I got it back it was blowing smoke when it started. I took it in, they couldn't find anything wrong, it eventually stopped smoking because it ran out of oil. I heard about some maintenance 'campaign' that may pay for some of the required engine re-build. Does anyone know about this?
