#4926 of 4932 Re: 07 Camry - excessive oil consumption [210delray] by imidazol97 Oct 13, 2009 (6:46 pm)
Replying to: 210delray (Oct 13, 2009 4:26 pm) >I don't think there's a manufacturer of any car sold in the US that recommends using ANY oil additives,   I believe my car manual says no additives are needed for the oil. It says to use oil marked with the proper GM specification and that's all that's needed. Oils have improved greatly in the last several years.   Re engines using or not using oil: An engine has to use some oil coating the cylinder walls as the rings slide down and then up on them. No oil would mean friction. The upper part of the cylinder is going to have oil burning off the wall due to the combustion. But many cars use very little. The combustion products that end up in the oil must add enough volume they replace the oil that is, in my thinking away, being used by the car to recoat the cylinder walls. There are always stories about people who drive their car under city conditions and short drives that build up byproducts in the volume of their oil. Then they take a highway trip and all of a sudden the contaminants are purged due to contstant high temperatures and in the cylinders as part of the oil coating, and when they check their oil they find the level is down. So they blame the highway driving for using oil when the car has been using oil all along and just replacing the lost volume with combustion products.

I just purchased a pre-owned 2007 Camry. Is there a way to change the "Welcome To Camry" message that appears on the stereo face when first starting the car? Replies to this message: kiawah (Oct 26, 2009 10:59 am)

#4929 of 4932 Front end vibration by miketmo Nov 09, 2009 (12:31 pm)
I have a 2007 toyota camry 4C, when I come to a stop my front end starts to vibrate and when I start accellerating the vibration stops. I noticed that when I turn off the A/C the vibration stops and when I turn it back on the vibration starts again. Any suggestions? Replies to this message: chris789 (Nov 09, 2009 2:14 pm)

Replying to: miketmo (Nov 09, 2009 12:31 pm) This happened in my 96 Camry LE 4 Cylinder. I believe its the Air Compressor of the A/C thats causing the vibration and when you give the car more gas it increases the pressure and the vibration goes away. I usually only noticed when I first start the car with the a/c turned on.

Replying to: djm2 (Oct 02, 2009 12:59 pm) I just test drove the 2010 V-6 XLE. All the write-ups on the car talk about how quiet it is. The engine is loud, the road noise is loud and I could hear all exterior noises as though I had the windows wide open. Next I drove a BASE 2010 Highlander on the same roads and was shocked at how much more quiet it was compared to the Camry. I will spend the extra cash for the Lexus ES 350!

Replying to: lboogygypsy (May 19, 2008 10:46 pm) Had my 2007 Camry XLE in for the 30,000 mile service and developed a similar problem with the radio after I left. It plays but the display is blank and if I press ANY button the radio turns off. Car is 38 months old so warranty has expired but they are going to replace it under the "good will" warranty.
