Sorry about your situation bro... if you read my post very well again.. I stated that you more than likely bought a naija used camry .. Most naija used cars are grossly abused.. The previous owners or owner must have known that the engine was going bad and decided to get rid of it before it becomes obvious......

Your options are very limited , you have few options here.

1. You can get a second opinion to verify that truly the engine is gone . And that replacement of engine or ringing is the only way forward..... But only risk here is that naija mechanics ringing will only last up to 6 months before the engine finally gives up the ghost... so you can try and risk it .. Ring the engine and hustle to save money with tokunbo engine before that 6 months expire... the cost of tokunbo of that engine can cost up to 350k naira,don't quote me on that ,call engine seller to verify actual cost...


2. One funny guy stated that you should continue topping the oil etc .. And those camry are known to burn oil like etc .. And you stated that your camry is 05 .. Have been selling cars for years, 05 camry are not known to short oil.. Whoever tells you that are unfortunately very and very incompetent... 2007 to 2009 camry are known to short oil .. It was a factory defects, all the camry 03 to 06 that I sold in the past had excellent engine. Those engine were almost bullet proof and they can handle abusive owners.. But my very first 07 camry that I sold, it was obvious that it short oil. ........good luck bro ,think am before you make a final decision. Best of luck

Gosh
I got the car this year may(toks)
Total 5w30 is around 17k while the 20w50 is 6400
Please what can I do as i don’t have money for new engine at the moment?

My people...I greet all of una
. I humbly need y’all help
I bought my car camry 2005 4plugs around May this year but I noticed the engine oil get dry up over time( I’m forced to service the car every 6weeks rather than toping the oil)..the recommended oil is 5w30 but it’s quite expensive so I go for Total 20w50

My mechanic said I’ll have to ring the engine if the problem persist(That will cost me over 60k according to him)
Please what might be the cause? And please what is the possible solution??
Your suggestions / Advice will be highly appreciated

LeJeun3:


I totally agree with you about the possibility, however like you clearly noted in the bolded, there would be proof. Which I asked OP for...

Then again OP said he hardly drove the vehicle, so loosing 4quarts would have been within range if normal oil burn was 1quart to 2000miles, however for a vehicle that was barely used and hadn't covered 2000miles to have gulped almost 20quarts , well maybe I just don't know enough....

Thanks

Everything was changed to manaul cos they said using Yaris parts would be automatic so it was changed to corolla, all manual including thermostat as well

LeJeun3:


Oga it's not possible.....
- engine not smoking
- engine not leaking

And 20Liters of oil loss??

martyns200:
Good morning, have an ac issue on my Yaris 2008, everything about the AC has been changed including the thermostat which has been changed to manual. Radiator has been flushed already. There are no more leakages. It's jus that when the compressor is hot it won't pick, it would wanna pick but it wld cut cos engine is very hot.. But when it's cool down small it would pick, but driving on the express way it would work all through cos breeze is blowing the engine but once one enters traffic where there would be heat that's when the compressor wld start the problem again.. what can be done to rectify this pls?

northbird:
Probably, your car inspection report has expired..

I experienced it too this morning.

Sorry to ask, were you a tomboy growing up or perhaps grew up among many guys?
Your vibes here among men suggest so. Seem you feel homely & comfortable with men.

I may be wrong though.
