camry 2002

[elmasduro]

i have a camry 2002 which i bought used. i have read in many place that it is a good idea to flush the radiator every 60,000 mile or so. i bought this used so i dont know when was the last time it was flush. any suggesstion? should i flush it? it has the pink antifreeze.

also for oil change, do i need to change it every 3000 miles? i always check after 3000 miles and it is still full and clear color.

how about the spark plugs? should i change them since i bought the car used and i dont know when was the last time it was change

the car has 141, 000miles

check with the dealer, but it might not hurt.

i beleive the interval for the iridium oem plugs is 100k....check the plug condition and check your owners manual
i change my oil every 3k with oem toyota filter and mobil 1 5w-30
i change my coolant with a mix of 50% oem toyota RED coolnt and 50% distilled water every 30K...your car should come equipped with red (pink coolant started in 2004 camrys) , so i reccomend the same interval...cars equipped with PINK are good to 100k on factory coolant, but it should be changed at 100k and every 50k after that

Iridium plugs have a 120,000 mile change interval.

Oil and filter changes are good for 5,000 miles when using the proper oil.

Change the coolant and install the correct red Long Life coolant.

"Camry 2002", isn't the greatest title for this thread...
