I am a Toyota Master mechanic , 2.5 Litre engine specialized , Never use any type of oil other than 0-16W, that is your ticket to trouble free engine performance. The transmission bus are fixed through software updates, the 8 speed is extremely reliable. The Camry I would say, without any hesitation, The most reliable 4 door mid size car in the planet.

What about the V6 motor? Same viscosity?

[@provokedthoughtz2602]

what year se would you buy between 2018, 2019,2020.

[@abdullahal-turaifi2692]

In saudi the dealership recommend 0w20 or 5w30, also the owner guide say 0w20, 5w30, or even 10w30! The 0w16 it’s not even available or sold anywhere in the kingdom because as they say it’s regulatory thing to reduce carbon emissions -blah blah blah- so don’t worry😅 What is your opinion about that? And I want to ask about M20A 2.0L engine in Rav4 do you it will be underpowered or perfectly fine? Because the base model engine is the most affordable, the 2.5L engine is only available in full option rav4 and it’s EXPENSIVE! Toyota here -saudi- have exclusive distributor who prioritizes profit over good practices! Monopoly. If you want to laugh watch the feature they put compare to united state model it’s a SHAME 😅😂!

[@chiragsomaraj5121]

[@WeencieRants]

I had to rent a 2020 Yota Camry last year during the peak of COVID. Long story short, was on a business trip during the start of the lockdown and had to rent a car to drive back home. Was in Arizona and drove back to Alabama. When I got to the rental company my first question was “ do y’all have any Honda’s or Toyota’s available”. They said they had Toyota Camry blah blah blah. I drove that baby over 3k miles and it was one of the best driving experiences I’ve ever had. I’ve been a loyal customer of Honda for most of my life and that was the first time I questioned my loyalty and I still highly consider and recommend buying a Toyota. Their legacy is better or equal to Honda, but man they do something’s much better and make the driving experience second to none in a lot of ways.

Thank you! Great information and I took a lot of notes. I just purchased a 2018 Toyota Camry LE and I'm VERY satisfied with my purchase. This is my second Camry in my lifetime. God bless you!

[@Vekurus]

2018 XSE 2.5L status report: I bought the car in 2022 with 54,000 miles on it. Very solid maintenance records in Carfax, no accidents. I had no issues whatsoever for the first 3000 miles and no real complaints. Being it was a new car for me, I felt I just needed to learn the quirks with the transmission. It never really bothered me, but took a bit to adjust to the abrupt downshifts if I was nearing a stop, but just needed to coast as say, the light was turning. BAM! Downshift. OK, learned that one. On a 1000 mile trip, I had crazy issues: 12v accessory in the console stopped working, then the USB port stopped working. From there, the car began shouting errors and malfunctions at me left and right. I had to turn off all of the safety features for the alerts to go away.. 800 miles later, the errors came back and made the car nearly unable to drive - power steering issues, and the alerts wouldn't go away. Everything from power steering failure, parking brake failure, etc etc to seat belt alerts. Took it to a shop, they thought it might havee been a strange short from the battery. They replaced the battery terminals (had just replaced the battery at a different shop prior to the trip) and it seemed to fix it. BUT. 350 miles later, it all started up again, but the entire dash failed - everything except for the tach! Transmission seemed to start shifting completely different, steering seemed to nearly die, EVERYTHING failed. Had to have it towed to a dealer. 10hrs of diagnosis later, - Bad PIN fitment. The computers and modules are in a BUS network. So one failed, they all began cascading into a failed state. It's been 7000 miles since, absolutely no issues. Computers. Just learned about the wipers! I was one of those people, felt the design was SO STUPID. I love this car. Had 3 Corollas prior, was so reluctant to give up my 07 Corolla S. But I have no regrets. Love this thing.

[@Vekurus]

@Thomas B They do. When the computer was basically dead, the trans sat in park, felt like any old car. Kinda rocked a bit against the trans. When the electronic one is working, it's like a rock. Just solid.

[@yeahboiii6640]

Also - This only goes for the 2018 transmissions on the regular cars. The Hybrids transmissions were based on the Prius which didn't have issues because the Prius had plenty of time on them to work out any bugs. What I heard anyway.

Fun fact 0W16 is actually 0W15. They didn't want to confuse consumers with using the number 15 thinking it would use 15W oils. This weight oil has been used in Japan years before it came to the U.S. mostly for hybrid applications.

I bought a used 2018 Camry XSE I4 with 30,000 miles exactly in the beginning of 2020. Rolling up on 39,000 miles. The only issue I have come across early on is once when closing the panoramic roof, only one side closed and the glass appeared to twist, but after opening and closing it again, it closed normally. Haven't had that problem since. Engine and transmission are super smooth. I did have the dealership update the software before purchasing. My first car was a 2007 Camry XSE that I bought with high miles (145,000+). I sold it around 163,000 miles. Replaced the transmission at 154,000 miles, ignition coils, and radiator around 160k miles. My dad has a 2014 camry with around 70k miles. No major issues aside from an occasional popping sound from the roof flexing when going over very steep curbs (our driveway for example).

Will take to dealership and have them install the software update and reset the adaptive memory.... Now subscribed to your channel ,thank you for all your info.... Found it is very hard to change your own oil due to the lowness of the ground you cannot drive it up on car ramps so I take it to a local oil change shop here in my town where he uses amsoil 0w-16 and is more reasonable for that and a tire rotation than my local dealership.....

[@marygunnari]

@@NorCalNiner707 I bought a used 2018 SE with 37K miles, it’s at about 45K now and I’ve had it for about a year. I haven’t experienced any issues with it, it’s just an all-around great car. Only maintenance I’ve had done was a tire replacement (because I drove around on a flat tire like a dummy) and regular fluid changes which I get free from the dealership. I was also given a 7 year/100,000 mile warranty from the dealership. Would highly recommend this car.

[@christopherm7702]

I wish I could give you more thumbs up. I have almost purchased this car several times but had reservations until hearing you explain the issues in detail. I bought a new f150 that I love but it has been at the dealer for so many cosmetic issues I am a thing of trading for XSE V6 or the Lexus ES 350. You have gained another sub. Thank you so much and God Bless!

Hi, I just subscribed to your channel and looks like your channel is a gem of knowledge and this one is an excellent video as well. I got a 2020 RAV4 adventure 6 months ago and can relate the panaromic sunroof rattling noise. I have driven the car around 7000kms but sometimes the transmission still gives jerks at slow speeds. Most of the time I drive in Eco mode. Will be waiting for your video on current gen RAV.

[@akesq01]

I have a 2018 and I have not yet needed a wiper change. I did notice that the wiper positioning would make it hard to change and I always wondered why it was designed that way. Thank you for the tip On how to get them into the change position! Did not know that at all!!!

[@leepower2717]

Toyota have just copied a Peugeot / Citroen idea - they have had the front wiper park position activated in the same way for the last 20+ years across all there multiplexed models.

[@dawkrb]

My wife rented one of these. It was an SE but she fell in love with it....I'll be keeping my eye on the 19s and 20s when the market cools down. Highway mileage is almost hybrid territory and plenty of punch from the Dynamic Force 2.5. kudos, Toyota!

[@jublywubly]

I had a 2017 Camry for two years. It recently got written off. (Rear-ended; not my fault.) My insurance paid out about AU$4,000 more than I paid for the car, due to the increase in market value. I've been checking out newer models to buy, but they nearly cost as much to buy now as when they were new.

[@truegrizzlesfan2292]

Go for it. I bought a used 2020 Camry for 10k with 90 k miles. Only issue was a dent in fender. Fix that and the car like Brand new. Can't beat the price and paying cash for car.

[@invisiblestring7]

You have helped me tremendously with my 2018 Camry SXE! I have had some of these issues and am now aware of what to do & watch out for! The 19” wheels are beautiful and sporty, yet carry a huge expense for sure…Marriage! I had to marry an alignment tech/tire store supervisor just to be able to keep up with the maintenance these beasts quickly and constantly incur! Also replaced ball bearing at 20k miles and the tires wear down quickly on the inside despite regular rotations and alignments. This abnormal tread wear is consistent on Camrys yet Toyota says there is no issue with this. Anyone else experience issues with the uneven tire tread or bubbles not pothole related?

[@jeffcharlton9660]

You're absolutely correct about the adaptive transmission. I bought a 2019 Camry XSE new and didn't like how it shifted at all but I stuck it out and now almost 30k miles it's smoothed out greatly. Enjoy your channel. Keep up the good work.

@@Catelyn7744 I have a 2018 Camry XSE with the V-6, I have had it for about two and a half years. When was researching the car, I wanted the Pearl white, panoramic moon roof, and all the bells and whistles, I also wanted the red interior. I looked at my local dealership website, and they had one that met all of my other requirements except fir the red interior, this one had black interior; I wasn't too thrilled with the black interior, but, it had everything thing else that I wanted, so I bought it. About two months after I bought it, I was walking through a parking lot, and I walked past one that had the red interior, and at least for me, seeing the red interior in person was little too much; I am glad that mine has the black interior.

I have the 2018 Camry LE Hybrid and it has been flawless - super high mileage, great handling and quiet ride. The LE has a Li-ion battery unlike the higher trim hybrids. It replaced our second Prius and it is an improvement in every way and has essentially the same mileage

[@truckerbrandonsmith]

Is the li-ion battery better than the ones in the other trims I’ve been looking at buying a Camry hybrid how many miles is on yours and have you had to do any repairs or maintenance yet? How many mpg are you getting in city vs highway

[@patrickrk44]

Not true, the li-ion Battery is used in other trims too.

[@steveolive9991]

You did a good job researching and presenting! I have more than 40k miles on my 2018 Camry (bought it new in the fall of 2018) and no problems with the transmission. My only complaint with the 2018 Camry is that there is no trunk "lock out" that allows you to lock the trunk so that the valet cannot open the trunk. In the earlier Camrys, you could turn the trunk lock counterclockwise to prevent the valet from opening the trunk.

[@harrisk5488]

You can from the Dash settings AFAIK

[@ajd960]

@@harrisk5488 how? I’ve been trying to find out how to disable the trunk button

[@invisiblestring7]

OWNERS TIP: Whatever you do, avoid accidentally locking your only key fob in the trunk! We had to use 2 lockout kits (broke both hooks due to angle of door handle) which activated anti theft system once pump was inflated in door jam. ATS activation caused the auto door lock button to constantly relock preventing outside handle from working, then it deactivated the trunk release button on dash and set off audible alarm. Once we finally got a good enough grasp on interior door handle to get door open, we see there is no way to open trunk manually, and were forced to pry the back seat back with crowbar enough to use a long hook to retrieve key by blindly fishing in trunk through a small seat gap held open by a man using entire body weight. Fun fact: There is no back seat release latch to fold down either seat from the interior, yet is only accessible from a latch located in the trunk not accessible from said gap. Never again will I load groceries in trunk without key fob visible, wrapped around my wrist with a spare readily available at home. This was my experience after a locksmith and two mechanics didn’t know of better solution. (Don’t judge…I’m a hot mess express). But… THE PROS: ain’t nobody gonna steal the 2018 Camry SXE successfully thanks to Toyota’s fail-proof, factory, anti-theft system! This car should come with hella auto ins discount from this experience alone! Seats are also very sturdy and practically unbendable by man.

I have a 2010 Yaris Sedan. Oil/Filter change every 5,000. A battery. Some sets of Tires. A transmission fluid change. And by 108,000 highway miles the only mechanical problem needing replacement was a squeaky fan belt. Great Cars! :)

Used to own a 2009 Yaris Sedan with 180,000 miles. Last 11 years only thing that was replaced was the alternator and battery. Everything else was original, didn't even have rust either. Recently traded it in for a 2018 Toyota Camry XSE though. I really do miss the Yaris, it's a super reliable car. Might buy it back one of these days from who ever owns it.
