#4637 of 4941 Remoter start for '09 Camry XLE with Smart Key Entry System? by cmor1701d Oct 25, 2008 (8:20 am)
I just got a 2009 Camry XLE with the Smart Key Entry System. I wnet to BestBuy to have a remote starter installed. At the end of the day they told me that the bypass units they had would not work. They told me my only option was to buy the remote starter from Toyota and they would install it for me.   Has anyone had success with a 3rd party remote start for this vehicle?

Replying to: cmor1701d (Oct 25, 2008 8:20 am) I have had a number of new vehicles in the past few years with after market remote starters from the $99 specials to the $400 high end with alarm and none of them, I repeat none of them have even come close to the quality and relieability of the factory ones. I have no idea how the Toyota remotes work but I'm betting even if just average they will still be better than the aftermarket stuff out there. Spend all that money on a new vehicle so don't go cheap now.

Replying to: amy22 (Jun 25, 2008 3:30 pm) Hi, I think I have the same problem the actuator noise sounds every time when I start to drive the car after 10 feet, all the people sitting in the car can hear the noise. I went to dealer and they told me "the sound only happened to Camry!" But why other type car does not sound that way? I just wondering why Toyota does not do anything try to fix it. That is really bad impression to Toyota's name!!! Who can tell me how they can fix the actuator noise?   Thank you!

Replying to: pingsterl (Oct 30, 2008 11:11 pm) If you are talking about the ABS test, all my cars with ABS do this after starting the engine and moving the car about 20-50 ft. Then, you never hear it again. My '07 CE does it, so does my old Corolla.

Replying to: pingsterl (Oct 30, 2008 11:11 pm) When I first took my camry to the service for this noise, they did not even know ABS actuator could make noise. They drove the car back and forth, stopped and started it. They could not figure it out and checked it on another Camry. When they heard that the other camry was doing the same noise, then they said it was normal.   Does your Camry burn oil? Mine does.

Replying to: vizyo (Oct 31, 2008 5:02 pm) Good Morning vizyo:        My 2007 XLE V6 Camry does not burn any oil! I have about 37,000 miles on it, and I change the oil and filter every 2,500 miles. (My choice)! ------ I also use BG / MOA oil additive. The dealer recommends this at major service intervals. (I use it at every oil and filter change.) --------- Remember, in the past, Toyota Engines were "sludge" producers! ----- Go to the dealer for all your oil and filter services, and KEEP ALL YOU SERVICE RECEIPTS! ---- When the $#& hits the fan, you will be in the driver's seat! -------- Consider putting an extended warrnty on this vehicle. (My vehicle is covered for 6 years / 100,000 miles by a Toyota Extended Warranty.)       Best regards. --------------- Dwayne

Replying to: vizyo (Oct 31, 2008 5:02 pm) The ABS actuator makes a noise during its self-test once the car gets up to about 3 mph or so after first being started. This is mentioned in the owner's manual and is common to most cars with ABS. (My 1990 Mercury Sable, one of the earlier cars with optional ABS, made this noise.)   Regarding oil "burning," how much are you losing? Most cars use a little oil in my 30+ years of experience owning cars. Only my most recent cars (3 Camrys and a Nissan Frontier) don't seem to use any.   You don't need any oil additives -- those are dealer moneymakers and are not recommended by Toyota itself. Again, check your owner's manual.
#4644 of 4941 Chasis Winter Protection by mncamry Nov 05, 2008 (8:43 am)
I bought my 2007 Camry LE in Maryland and have recently moved to Minnesota. I was told by the Toyoya dealer in Marlyland that car comes standard with under body(chasis) protection against salt/sand spray for winter driving conditions.   Does anyone konw if this is true or if I was hosed by the dealer? Do any Camry owners living in states like MN get after-market chasis protection?   Thanks Replies to this message: 210delray (Nov 05, 2008 9:35 am) dmathews3 (Nov 05, 2008 11:11 am) notmybmw (Nov 07, 2008 6:45 pm) dmathews3 (Nov 08, 2008 7:38 am) 210delray (Nov 08, 2008 4:44 pm) and 2 more... mncamry (Nov 10, 2008 6:43 am)

Replying to: mncamry (Nov 05, 2008 8:43 am) All cars today have good rust protection from the factory. Just wash your car often in the winter if it gets salted up (at car washes obviously if it's below freezing outside) and be sure to generously hose off the underbody come spring (some car washes include this).
