Toyota Camry: 5 Tips To Keep Your Car Running For A Long Time by LadipoNG: 10:10am On Sep 05, 2017 |
There are a lot of Toyota Camrys out on our roads, and many of them are still being driven by their original owners. Here are five recommendations from enthusiasts of the top-selling car to keep the Camry running smoothly and to avoid costly replacement parts and service. Maintenance Tips: Tip #1 Replace Fluids When it comes to prolonging the life of your Camry, regular oil changes are important. So is changing the coolant every five years, ABS fluid at least once, and adding new power steering fluid if it’s dirty. If the power steering fluid is extremely dirty, check the drive shaft seal for leaking. Maintenance Tips: Tip #2 Avoid Transmission Failure If your Camry has more than 60,000 miles, it is time to change your transmission fluid. Check the transmission input shaft seal for leaking, and check the transmission flex plate for cracking. Maintenance Tips: Tip #3 Maintain Radiator Hoses Check all the coolant hoses carefully. These sometimes start as a slow leak and then become a burst. Maintenance Tips: Tip #4 Don’t Ignore the Check Engine Light Remove the EGR valve and check for carbon plugging in the valve opening, head, and tube. This is an emissions issue when the car is still driving normally, but the "check engine" light may come on when it’s time to replace the EGR valve. Maintenance Tips: Tip #5 Replace Various Parts Replace the cam and crank seal and the pump driveshaft seal when the mileage gets high, and inspect the idler bearings for roughness. Title Card: Scheduled Maintenance Toyota Motor Sales and Camry enthusiasts advise scheduling regular preventive maintenance appointments. In addition, keep in mind other parts replacement and service needed over long-term ownership: New tires New rear rotors and brakes New coolant hoses Fuel injection service And brake fluid flush When driving on rough roads and inclement weather: Inspect brake linings/drums and brake pads/discs Inspect engine air filter Inspect nuts and bolts on chassis and body Using these tips and adding them into your regular maintenance will prolong the life of your Camry. These recommendations from enthusiasts will help your Camry run smoothly and avoid many costly repairs. Source: Camryforums 3 Likes 2 Shares |

These cars come with good shock absorbers but unfortunately always end up getting damaged due to our bad roads. If you have the money it's strongly adviced that you replace any faulty or worn out parts as a stitch in time... You know the rest.

Look out for 3G engines, they last better than 2G. The gear issue is one big headache. |
