Dude massive respect for you making these videos. I have a 2020 pearl white XSE 4cyl that I’ve done some basic modding to (cool air intake, muffler deletes, strut bar, etc) and I too put a ridiculous amount on mine. So these videos have brought me a little peace of mind to the longevity. Keep em coming boss and I look forward to 400k on up to a milli!

[@stevenfedorov]

Appreciate the feedback!

[@glOckcOma]

Those mods will only shorten the life of your engine. The Camry 4cyl is not a race car, it's a get around town, grocery getter. For people thinking of modifying their 4cyl Camry, don't do it. These engines are made for longevity, not to race. Any racing mods will just put strain on it. Oh and change your oil every 5k, regardless of what the dealer tells you.

[@sporty05]

Amazing how the seats have held up! Looks like the plastic is just oxidating with age. Thanks for the video, I am thinking about buying one of these with the 2.5. Totally impressed with yours at 300k. Just found your other video about the transmisson...

[@Wavetheory85]

Congratulations on 300k. I was wondering about how expensive the lyft accident was. Did you have to pay $2,500 deductible and much down time no driving or did you rent to drive? I just got a 2024 LE and uber on weekends will do ~33k miles per year. I worried about the softex leather and more expensive tires on the SE. I also heard that thise tires/wheels are more easily damaged. I just have black fabric interior so im trying out a seat cover when i drive saturday nights. I was really torn between SE & LE. I also never drove SE and wondered if it felt nearly as smooth a ride as LE. If i ever get another camry ill probably get an SE now that I see how well your interior has held up.

[@stevenfedorov]

Well, my accident happened in a way that Lyft didn’t know. I didn’t report anything so I payed for it out of pocket. My insurance wouldn’t cover the transmission accident. I didn’t drive when the car was in the shop for a week. I have tried the LE before when I got T boned the first year of ownership and I would say that the LE is way more comfortable with the cloth seats and softer suspension. That accident was the other guys fault and his insurance covered the incident and I got a rental which was the LE Camry.

[@richscott2483]

The exterior appears to be well-kept compared to the interior. Then again, with all those customers - people - and family members in and out you can expect a lot of wear and tear to the interior. Yeah! CVT replaced after 200K miles ... acceptable but costly. [$3,000 +] Just 1 wheel bearing ..should replace both sides at the same time. [$600 for both] Probably on the 6th set of above-average quality tires [$5,400]. Alternator + Belt [$600], Brakes [$2,500] Oil Changes x 32, Trans Flush x 2, Coolant Flush x2, and Air Filters x 16, [$2,500]. That is like $15K to keep the Camry up and running. I would worry about the 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine, catalytic converters, emission, and exhaust system ... time for a new car. Last! CONGRATULATIONS Steven on being a safe driver and still having a functional Camry.

[@stevenfedorov]

Thanks! The exterior has rock chips on the front. You can’t see it in the video but it’s there. Also a used alternator is only $142 minus $35 core charge. Brand new one cost $400. Tires would cost about $200+ at discount tire but you can buy tires on Amazon/eBay for cheaper and just as good quality. Also, a good local shop will install it for you for only $20/tire. Not too expensive if you know the right people and places to shop at. I have a KnN engine filter that I don’t have to replace and I only replaced the cabin air filter like 2x in its life 😂 Also, this is a regular automatic transmission, not CVT. This is not a Hybrid. As far as wheel bearing, yes I agree. I should have replaced both and probably should have got OEM ones. I’m trying to keep cost down because everything is expensive. Life is expensive lol. I did make it a goal to hit 1 million miles, with God’s help, I will stick to it. Considering getting a spare car along the way just in case this one fails on me.

@@unlearningcommunism4742 ??? I think your math is off. I spend between $600-$800 per month on gas. That’s about $10,000 per year for 77,000 miles. In other words, newer Camry has better gas mileage than old one. Also, the price of new Camry for similar model went from $27k to $37k. I don’t think you will save that much in gas as much as a new Camry. Just my thoughts

[@unlearningcommunism4742]

@@stevenfedorov It was just a bulk number. It all depends in what city, when, what's the price of gas... In Houston, I have some colleagues with irrational cars, makin 15 mpg, while my Fusion can achieve 23 mpg. This spring, I rented a Camry, and that thig could do 35.

[@MrTacoJay]

Just curious if you ever changed the tranny fluid before the tranny went? And if so. How often? Sweet car

[@wjm3018]

I wonder how long a auto transmission will last without changing the fluid without any leaks etc? I would love to see real life review.

[@stevenfedorov]

I’m sure some people have done that before; I wouldn’t want to risk it tho

[@aland_24]

when 400k ??? we are waiting !

[@averagejoe2982]

Did u replace transmission fluid or transmission?

[@stevenfedorov]

Both

[@ahmadalawadhi538]

Camry one or maby top one car in the world in every contry not doubt about that

[@stevenfedorov]

Yup, that and Corolla probably

[@tigerkenshi]

I have 2019 Camry SE with 65k miles. The car is paid off. Should I keep the car or traded in or sell it while it holds some value?

[@stevenfedorov]

I’m a personal believer of not buying a car with a loan. I just don’t like paying for a car that I bought 4 years ago. Trade in values are not that much. Dealerships will low ball like crazy. If you sell the car, what are you planning to get next? Either something older or something new that will lose its value in the first 5 years. Personally, I would just keep it as a daily (Not financial advice) :)

[@tigerkenshi]

@@stevenfedorov I want Tesla but I know that is not smart idea financially. For now, I will keep the Camry.

[@averagejoe2982]

How many times did u change transmission oil?

[@stevenfedorov]

3

[@PLATINUM2U]

Let me tell you. If an old Nissan Altima with 501k miles and a 4 speed traditional auto can last I’m pretty sure a Camry can as well. I’m trying to get to a million with my car but I don’t drive it enough. It’s a challenge but definitely doable Good Luck! 🍀

[@stevenfedorov]

Thanks man, keep up with the services and you’ll be able to hit your goal 😉

[@ibiro868]

i know another camry rideshare driver who's transmission went out at 160k. they call it lifetime fluid so it can break and they can sell you another

[@wjm3018]

He changed his at 1st atf change at 155k miles based on his other video when his transmission broke. He got 123k miles more since it broke at 278 miles. I wonder if he followed the 60k miles interval if his transmission would still be running fine?

[@stevenfedorov]

Yup that’s the sad reality. They probably call it lifetime fluid because no one drives more than that many miles, but if they do; they will sell you their extended warranty 😂🤦‍♂️

[@badsherlockian2062]

What happened to the transmission that you had to replace it? That seems unusual to me, especially for a Toyota... What's the back story?

[@mikealicious3848]

Probably lack of transmission fluid changes or it never had any transmission fluid changes. The transmission fluid needs to be changed every 60k miles. Drain and fill, not a flush.

[@stevenfedorov]

I have a video on my channel that explains the transmission issue.

[@mikealicious3848]

@@stevenfedorov I just watched it. I’m not a Toyota owner, but something similar happened to me with my Volkswagen. My transmission was never serviced until 120k miles, which was around the mileage when it started to shift rough. Six months later after I do a drain and fill, it started slipping anyway. my trans replacement is out of a ‘09 Jetta 2.5l. Trans has less than 30k miles. I’ll be doing a drain and fill every 37500 miles/ 60k km like the manual says.

[@stevenfedorov]

@@mikealicious3848 the car care nut channel is what everybody recommended me to listen so I did. He is a certified Toyota/Lexus technician. I watched his videos and he says to drain and fill every 30k-60k miles. Also he says not to do it too often because at that point the transmission can slip. Not sure if it works on other cars but it should for Toyota.

[@mikealicious3848]

@@stevenfedorov His channel has helped me as well. I do follow his maintenance tips that applies to all cars, not just Toyota. His channel has given me direction of what I want for a first Toyota. Hope your Camry reaches 400k miles.

Do you change the transmission fluid?

Yes, 3x on old transmission before it gave up

[@Tomasthe1st]

How much money did you make driving 300k miles?

[@AwWwWwWwWyA]

approx how many miles did you change the tires on average?

[@stevenfedorov]

About once or twice a year. Depending if I get screws in my tires that I can’t repair

[@stevenfedorov]

Miles wise I put about 70k miles per year so around that time

[@ernestovasquez2102]

Any updates?

If you know those floor mats are slippery then change them before someone slips back and hits their head on the pavement and sues you out of all you’ve worked hard for. How much could a new set of floor mats cost? $50?

[@stevenfedorov]

First off, thank you for your comment. It helps out my channel. Secondly, I’ve been doing this for 4.5 years and took over 10,000 people so far and no one complained about it. Also, the Mats are not that slippery; only when people are in a rush to get in/out. Even if I put new mats in, those new mats will wear out just as quick as the old ones.

[@CheckIToutRealFast]

Hey how much did u fix the trans? And who fixed it?

[@stevenfedorov]

$4200 all in, cottman transmission shop

[@CheckIToutRealFast]

@@stevenfedorov thank you

[@mwhy244]

You should be changing your transmission oil every 40 - 50k miles.

[@chrisragone8785]

What happened with your windshield?

[@stevenfedorov]

It started with a small crack. Wasn’t exactly sure how it started weather a rock hit it or it’s from the sun. I believe it was from the sun. It started small then grew quickly from the top of drivers side to half way down the glass. It was too late to repair it at this point so I had to replace the windshield

[@ahmedsi]

how much did you save on the junk yard alternator?

[@stevenfedorov]

It was $142 with 2k miles munus the $35 core charge So…about $107 total

[@stevenfedorov]

Compare that with $400 new alternator

[@user-tb7rn1il3q]

That’s smart putting in a low mileage junkyard alternator.

[@migi604]

why do transmission shift weird on all these models is that normal

[@stevenfedorov]

What year and model are you looking at? I believe it’s normal but the first few models may have some issues, I have a 2020 model transmission in mine and it works fine. Maybe I’m just used to it shifting like that 🤷🏻‍♂️
