Apart from the Infiniti G37, I don't think your budget can buy any of those cars on this list.
Unless you are buying Nigerian used.

Hello mentors

Please i got a budget of 2m - 2.5, can I get a rplug toks camry for that range... Year preferably 2010..le version?

Story.

I have removed it in one of my vehicles. Fuel economy has improved, gained 1mpg. Engine is not overheating and the vehicle is not experiencing any loss of power. The only thing I agree with is a louder exhaust note but who cares?

I even prefer the new exhaust note especially on startup

the catalyst main job is to improve the quality of air coming out of the exhaust, don't mind that guy
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by richforever123: 12:31am On Mar 03, 2021
Good evening

My Toyota Camry 2007 popped the following code

Code: P2017

Mt symptoms were

Poor Acceleration
Stalling
Engine Vibration while idle
Diminished engine performance

On further investigation, I realized that the problem is from the Intake Manifold Runner Valve Controller
I learnt that the Intake Manifold Valve Controller controls the opening and closing of the valves, however, the position sensor which detects if the valves are open or closed seems to have a short circuit so it cannot perform its functions properly, therefore the valves are perpetually open

I have watched videos were the Intake Manifold Runner Valve Controller was replaced on a Dodge on youtube, however, I have not seen one done for a Toyota Camry hence my question, can I replace the Intake Manifold Runner Valve Controller on a Toyota or I have to replace the whole Intake Manifold Runner Valve Assemble

I have attached pictures for a clearer view

Your reply is highly anticipated

Forget 2010. You can get 07-08 with about 2.5m. 2m can get you a severely accidented one or a rust bucket. You don't want that.

Go to any car stand around your area. Shine your eyes. Do vin checks on any car you want to buy. If you are in Abuja, you can contact mikereign for prepurchase inspection.
If in lagos, contact Gazzuzz.
If you want to do preorder, I can arrange that for you.

You are welcome. Stick to the maintenance routine specified by your car manufacturer and the fluids specified. Don't use that Mobil oil in your transmission. It will end in tears.
