Auto-X is light abuse as you are not wot for a 30 minute session and therefore cant generate enough heat to melt the seal. I think this issue will develop on auto-x and spirited drive cars later than on full track cars. My car had 4000 track miles when the injector failed and caused a hole in my piston. Im thinking its a simple fix but it all begins with toyobaru admitting something is wrong and offering a flash fix or DI replacement.
