Hi, my 98' Maxima has about 126,000 miles; it runs great; burns about one quart of oil every 2,200 miles; and all other fluid levels are perfect and so far require no topping off.
Problem: If I've driven it hard the night before, it tends to smoke from the tailpipe upon starting (blue smoke). The cloud could be big, but after a second or less, nothing comes out from the tailpipe.
Assuming I'm looking at a valve guide seal job, anyone know what would be a fair price? Is it worth the hassle? I'm looking to keep it for a few more years.
Thanks.
