#312 of 314 What about the RED COOLANT??? by webguyster Oct 25, 2001 (8:26 am)
I just did 30,0000 mile service on me 2000 Camry Solara, SE V6, and declined the coolant change, as it has the Toyota Long Life Coolant. The bottle doesn't say anything about how long the longlife is. It is chemical the same as Dex-Cool, I believe, which can go 100,000 miles before chage. Any comments???
#313 of 314 What does the manual say as to change interval? by armtdm Oct 25, 2001 (9:15 am)
Another example of dealer needing to keep the service dept. viable. No manufacturer today has a 30,000 miles coolant change recommendation.Minimum I have seen is 45,000 and that is not even with the Dex cool stuff   Bet the dealer said you needed it because of the climate you live in
#314 of 314 Am I gonna need a valve job? by carforhaley Oct 25, 2001 (1:39 pm)
I'm considering buying a '95 Camry LE. 119,000 miles. A local Toyota mechanic checked it out for me and found that it has a probable "oil blow by" in one of the valves. Exhaust is sometimes kinda smoky when started up but soon clears. He thought that a gas additive might clear that up. (in lieu of a $1000 valve job that is!) Compression was 155 in three cylinders. 135 in the other on first test...however, subsequent tests found this cylinder to be back up to the level of the others. It's all Chinese to me. Should I be as worried and hesitant about this car as I am? Any advice or info. on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
