Lexus is the luxury model of Toyota. It’s better in all aspect except fuel economy because it comes in only 3.5L engine.

Alright. So based on your analogy, you’ll recommend a 2002 Lexus over a 2010 Camry? Since Lexus is the luxury version of Toyota.

Camry 2012 isnt more luxurious than a ES 2010. Interior build the Lexus wins, both utilities the same V6 engine. build quality the ES is well made too many plastic in the camry. Overall the ES is still a better vehicle to own

ES of what year? 2008, 2009? Reliability? The ES 2008-11 is susceptible to transmission failure. Fuel economy and cost of ownership? Resale value? Oga please luxury is not the only metric for assessing a cars quality.
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by bastien: 10:08am On Sep 10, 2021
Please what is this called and how much can I does it


Camry 09

That should be lower arm bushing. Cost I can't say, but it is always expensive than other bushing because the part would be loosened and taken to where the bushing would be inserted by a machine. It normally cost me x3 of other bushing then on my 2000 sienna

The person who asked for assistance has been given, you dont know what we are discussing b4 jumping into the topic reason you are asking for year been compared.

08-11 ES was fitted with U660E transmission I dont know what you are talking about in transmission problem because if you know how many Toyota and Lexus carry that transmission you will not be debating about its reliability.

To check if fuel tank cap is tightly fitted you'll need to inform your rewirer? And you wonder why he won't take you for a fool and dupe you at any given opportunity?

Hello All.

I just got a toyota corrola 2010.
Everything was fine and d engine was sounding well.
After purchase, since i intend to go long journey with it, i took it for servicing. Oil filter and engine oil was changed, since dt day, i started hearing a knocking sound like on my engine. Could oil cause such noise? I hve it recorded bt i dont how to send it here. The sounds is worrysome nd get worst everyday... The mechanic was saying after d oil circulates it will stop but here we are, every cold start, it start and continue. This tin started from my hand and dats why i want to see what i can do to clear it.

My car smokes black only when accelerating but stops afterwards.

It burns oil too. However, everything else is fine. It fires well.

Any remedy? Can anything be done?


Or should I just change the engine?
