Camry 2007 Engine Broke Down Due To No/low Oil - Need Help And by Munachimsoaga: 10:18pm On Oct 01, 2021
Hello guys. My car engine broke down due to no oil (Perhaps my ignorance as I'm a total novice and Don't even know oil gauge)

Mechanic said the metal is broken and it affected the Crankshaft. I'm thinking of buying engine half and top or just buy new Crankshaft and Original metal. Your recommendations would be highly appreciated

If am to take a guess . your 2007 camry is 4plugs! From 2007 to 2009 4plugs are factory defect that shorts oil ... The v6 does not have that problem.......

So my advice is for you to get a complete tokunbo engine. Hopefully u can find one .. You are looking to spend at least 300k ........ And once u are able to get a tokunbo engine always make sure to check the oil level .. You might have to use a thicker oil 5w40 will be advisable... Good luck

the major reason why Camry of those year range is a no no for me,won't even advice a novice or first timer to go for that Camry.

anything Camry and corolla will always sell in Nigeria no matter the defects,that can't be said about other competitive brands,trust me if its accord or civic that came with such factory defects they would have termed the car the worst thing after lucifer,now if you compare the k-leg issue common with accord and this oil burning and dash melting that is prone to the Camry, which is more serious? But you see the way the made the k-leg looks like a terrible issue, mean while the one that came with the Camry is even worst capable of knocking the engine and will cost a fortune to fix when compare to the minor leg issues of accord,its the bias world we live in today. cheesy

Better to buy a complete tokunbo engine. If you buy that "half" you will still eventually buy the complete engine sooner than later.

Sadly, a tokunbo engine will not cost anything less than 500k now.

Merry Xmas to OP, because this problem won't be solved soon without someone having a very merry Xmas.

Toyota or car ownership is bankrupting a lot of our people now and it has gotten extremely expensive.
