Sepentine belt change first time ?

@@sulin422 no not first time

Appreciate the feedback!

Yes. This change transmission fuild is important

Thanks. I started changing transmission fluid every 30k miles now

Did you say you replaced the 8 speed automatic transmission? My Camry is a 2010 with over 221k no issues on the 6 speed automatic transmission. I have changed my transmission fluid with the world standard fluid 3 times. What happened with the transmission?

Happy to help!

Thanks a lot!

Yea me too!

Thank you!

Did you change transmission fluid every 30k-50k miles? If not, then there could be a chance the transmission will have problems. Try to do a drain and fill on the transmission and it will last a while 👍

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.

Right on

Thanks!

Yes I did once for sure around 100k or 200k don’t remember tbh; I know I need to replace it soon

Thanks for the info!

Change at 5k. Full synthetic. 10k is too long, doesn't matter how you drive.

Besides transmission, wheel bearings, alternator, serpentine belt, side skirt ripping off, everything else works fine. If you want more information on maintenance, check out the Car Care Nut channel. Everyone in the comments section recommends him for all that stuff. I’m here for ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSE ONLY! I’m NOT a certified Toyota mechanic like that guy, I just share my car journey

Yea man, go for it! 😁

Well, if I changed transmission fluid between 30k-60k miles my transmission could have lasted longer

Yea man, glad you like the video

How's the Toyota Camry driving now. I am getting one as well with 140k miles. Only paid,11k. Can't wait.

@@truegrizzlesfan2292 mine is doing pretty well, still driving it. It has about 338k miles now

Up to 136k on mine with 5k on payments

That’s great to hear because I also have the 2017 3.5 but with 73k. Do you keep up with your transmission flushes? That’s the only thing I’m worried about

That’s awesome! 👏👍

Awesome! If I had the extra cash, I would have gotten the trd version but the car and gas is kinda expensive for me lol

I’ll consider that. If only the camera picked up on how much rock chips are on the front bumper. This car can use some touch up paint.

Yes I did, I didn’t change transmission fluid at the right intervals. I was supposed to drain and fill every 30k-50k miles but I didn’t know better. Learned the hard way

@@stevenfedorovthanks for your honesty I was wondering the same thing if trans failed early due to service intervals

Thank you!

No I didn’t clean the MAF sensor but I did have my fuel pump replaced at dealership because of low voltage fuel pump recall

That’s the way to do it! 👍

Thank you for watching! I’m glad my videos help people. The fluid I use is WS transmission fluid from the dealership. I started to drain and fill my transmission fluid every 30k miles. Will see how long I can make this one last.

@@stevenfedorov saw on car nut Toyota that the transmission fluid of these Camrys must be replaced at 60k, is that correct? Who told you that it has to be changed after 30k? My Camry xse has 41k and I'm waiting to get to 45k and do it an exchange at the Toyota dealer, what do you say?

@@augustojunior5906 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oLCiZpOjm7i2l6s.htmlsi=35k0GAyjo7RxJr-m Watch his video to the end particularly the “final thoughts and recommendations” section. The video is called what NOT to do in a Toyota and Lexus. Basically what he says is WS fluid needs to be changed every 60k or 6 years. Also he says the EARLIEST you should change WS fluid is 30k miles. That’s where I got the interval 30k-60k miles.

Once a month

@@stevenfedorov how many miles is that?

@@MisterMathematics 5k miles

Driving like a grandma all the time is bad

@@niggawhat7747 this engine is multi port injection. Driving slow is not a problem.

Glad to hear it! 👍

Actually I bought a transmission from LKQ junk yard with 30k miles on it for $2800. Then I took the car and transmission to a transmission shop and they did it for $1500 (labor cost) All in I was $4400

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.

I have a 2020 Camry hybrid with 64k miles and I’m thinking about taking it to a custom interior shop and getting a nice tan interior. I’m planning on doing it at 130k miles or when I have to replace the battery.

Yea, this car can handle well.

I don't, the car care nut channel can answer that question

Wow that’s impressive! All together it cost me $4200 to replace the transmission. That’s with a tranny from the junk yard and finding a local transmission shop that would take the job with a transmission from LKQ. I was impressed that shops do that

Listen. Camrys are good cars, but do NOT listen to their recommended oil changes please. I just got rid of mine it had 120k miles and burn oil like crazy. Because I only changed the oil every 10k miles like they said. Change it as well as the oil filter every 5k miles.

@@357trent I know, I do that now

No I didn’t unfortunately, first service was done at 120k miles at dealership

I’ll 2nd this, I’d change the transmission fluid every 40k miles to make sure transmission stays perfect

I didn’t ask the technicians when they changed the fluid but I’m sure it’s the only fluid that works for the car

No they weren’t, I have a video on my channel that answers your question

First transmission fluid was done at 120k miles but factory manufacturer will tell you every 30k-60k miles. Break pads, well, I change mine whenever it starts to squeal

Yup lol

Both

The transmission is trying to learn your driving style. Just give it time and it should adjust accordingly

$4200 total cost to buy and replace transmission; it went out at 278k miles

That’s at a transmission shop, not dealership. Dealership will quote $8k for tranny replacement

Did you do the recommended maintenances? Specifically the transaxle?

@@ChandlerBlala no, haven’t touched on that yet

Did you replace transmission fluid every 60k miles?

No, I didn’t know better. Manufacturer states tranny fluid needs to be replaced every 30k-60k miles Dealership recommended me to change it after 100k miles. Overall I changed transmission fluid 3x If you want more info check out my video “my 2019 Camry transmission went out”

@@stevenfedorov I actually came across your transmission went out video right after posting that question, lol. To make it to 278k was still pretty good. It would be interesting to see how a transmission would hold up if a person did the service every 30k. I wonder if it would make a difference.

@@MrGunner945 that’s what I plan to do, I’m about to change my own transmission fluid coming up in a couple thousand miles will be 30k miles on the new tranny

Where did you drive thru the last five years

@@osvaldoaguilar7623 everywhere under the sun ☀️😁

I’m getting 28 city 40 highway and I’m looking into getting a hybrid Venza lol

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

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

Compare that with $400 new alternator

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

Alright thanks for the info, I change mine every 5k miles

@@stevenfedorov no problem. Can't wait for the next update!

0W-16

Nice, cars last a long time if they are maintained well

My transmission started shuttering at 250k; then it started slipping around 260k. It gave up at 278k miles. If you decide to get one with that many miles, I highly recommend that you check that the transmission fluid was serviced every 30k-50k miles (Transmission fluid change drain and fill)

I just drive locally lol sometimes out of state

You don’t need to do that since you just bought the vehicle. Just remember to change your oil every 5k miles and DO NOT listen to the technicians that say every 10k miles. Oil changes are cheap. And when it comes to the transmission, change the fluid at 60k miles.

30k-50k miles transmission fluid drain and fill

0w-16 ; oil change every 5k miles

Mine is 4 cylinder and requires only 0w-16 oil

Mine is 4 cylinder also and requires 0w16 whith is basically water, I think wd40 can probably do a better job, toyota just trying to squeeze as much as possible for gas saving costing you a engine failure. I will never use 0w16 ever, plus this cars with same engine in Mexico toyota recommend 5w30 so becareful trusting what they recommend, after the warranty is gone they really don't care anymore

@@robsonrissotrainer I would not use any other oil than 0-16 if I was you, otherwise you’ll say bye- bye to your engine in a couple of years… This guy just said I’ve been using 0-16 oil every 5k miles for 300k miles and his engine just fine, his warranty long gone, so idk what r u talking about…

@@georgiiarakelov6560 I use 0w30 for years and it's much better, only reason toyota Recommend and NOT require 0w16 is only for gas saving so I rather save my engine from failure than saving gas. I've driving 400k miles on my last camry using 0w30 and it was 0w20 Recommend. Seriously using 0w16 I rather just spray wd40 instead it will do a better job lol no way I will ever use 0w16, plus the same car in Mexico toyota recommends 5w30 so go ahead with 0w16 and good luck

According to video he replaced one from junk yard and had it installed. Question, did you change your transmission fluid every 60k miles prior to incident

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

No I didn’t

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) :)

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

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.

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

@@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.

@@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.

@@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.

Yes, 3x on old transmission before it gave up

I have a video on my channel that can answer your questions

Will do my best 😉

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 🤷🏻‍♂️

I try to keep it clean but it will look worser every year with rock chips and basic wear and tear

I have video on my channel that explains the cost

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?

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 😂🤦‍♂️

I change oil once a month, usually around 5k miles

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

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

I think that’s more of a personal preference. The Corolla is smaller and has less room but the XLE has more features. The question is, is it worth an extra $2k for a smaller car with more features? The Corolla has a cvt and slightly worser gas mileage on highway than the Camry, but the Corolla has better mpg in the city. Personally, I would go for Camry

@@stevenfedorov too late the Camry got sold. So I went with 2016 accord exl v6 60k for $19.9k

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.

$4200 all in, cottman transmission shop

@@stevenfedorov thank you

Used $2800 + $1500 labor

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

Right on!

I don't think Americans really understand how expensive gasoline can be. Let's say you make 10.000 miles per year. A good car will consume 300 Galons, average one 400 and oversized car will consume 600. 300 Gallons in Texas = 1.000 dollars, every year. Or... in this case, 200.000 miles = 20.000 Dollars difference?! Old Camry saves you a New Camry every 300.000 miles X)

@@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

@@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.

@@unlearningcommunism4742 nice

Yup, that and Corolla probably

Around $10k-$12k trade in value (KBB)

No, 0W-16

Don’t really have the time 🤷🏻‍♂️

I mean you either love it or you hate it 🤷🏻‍♂️ but if all of them shift the same then it’s just the 8 speed transmission. That’s just how it works.

thank u hope i get 300 k plus miles on mine just got it thank u

That’s easily done man. I put 250-400 miles on my truck daily

Yea I’ve been driving 200+ miles per day

The odometer doesn’t lie ….

Some people drive less, some drives extra ordinary. My 2018 camry has 184k miles and not a single issue. I change oil at 10k plus miles but now planning to do at every 5k miles.

$2800 part $1500 labor

I didn’t change the transmission fluid at the right intervals, lesson learned

What’s the mileage interval on that??

I would have changed it out along with the alternator. They generally last about the same time. The alternator has to be removed to replace the water pump. Replace the water pump, belt, and alternator at the same time. Verify the idler pulleys and tensioner are good, they might need replacement as well.
