I agree, I don't think I have too much oil in to be causing the bubbling. - Perhaps it's normal and I just need to let it sit a few minutes before checking. If a seal was loose like you suggested, would there be any other problems i should look at? I'm wondering if I need to have it replaced...

It's a 2006 v6 limited with 84k miles. I just got it a couple months ago! the dipstick is the worst ive seen in regards to a clear level, it smears all over everytime i check. but the majority of the oil is just below the top of the high dot. I changed it myself and put 5 1/3 quarts in after...

do you know when the head gasket issues were resolved in the 4th gen 4runners? was 2005 the last year that had those cylinder 6 problems leading to head gasket replacement? I'm concerned that the oil is an indication that my head gasket is going out..

it was on the on the threads, - it had not appeared to foul the electrode. I don't think it's the head gasket, due to no additional signs or problems. the spark plug tube/well gaskets seem to be the likely problem - i've heard that if it was the valve cover gasket there would be oil on the...

I just changed my spark plugs with the OEM Denso's on my '06 2wd v6 - they work great. I noticed that on plug 6 there was a little bit of oil on it. do any of you know what could cause that? everything else is working fine. I really don't want to take it into the dealership for their opinion.
