2011 LEXUS CT HYBRID Engine Problems

I EXPERIENCED LOUD ENGINE VIBRATION AT COLD STARTS FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, THEN I STARTED SEEING WHITE SMOKE FROM MY TAILPIPE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO LEXUS RIVER-CENTER, COVINGTON, KY, ON 14FEB19 TO COMPLETE TSB L-SB-0004-13 WHICH REPLACES THE INTAKE MANIFOLD WITH A NEW PART NUMBER.

THIS SEEMS TO BE POSSIBLY RELATED TO THE SAME ENGINEERING MISTAKE THAT LED TO THE TOYOTA TSB DESCRIBING NEARLY THE SAME ISSUES OF OIL BURNING/CONSUMPTION OF THE 2AZ-FE ENGINES.
