5th & 6th Generation (2002-2006 & 2007-2011)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 2002-2006 & 2007-2011
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
How would you rate your Camry for reliability from a scale of 1-10. 10 being the most reliable.
Also state:
1. Year
2. Engine type (V6 or 4 Cylinder)
3. Mileage
4. Problems/repairs
I would give my Camry a 8.5 out of ten for reliability.
It's a 2002 V6 with 164,000 KM
I was not the original owner and bought the car about 4 years ago, with 96,000 KM. One oxygen sensor went shortly after I bought it but maybe the previous owner used cheap gas or drove short distances. Also at about 140,000 Km, the air con compressor went. Either than that, the car has been quite reliable.
i just encounter a problem the other day when i went in for a smog check, there seem to a mlf on my speed sensor which cause the smog to fail but i got speed sensor to reprogram and pass the smog today but the smog tech say it is still there.
otherwise car have been great, i just got a 90k service for it, new waterpump, cam seal, ps/ac belt basicly everything the 100k needed. It run strong and smooth now, i rate it a 9.0.

My apologies if this has been posted. However, what i do want to say is, searching for a topic such a "reliability" or variation of, you can get many hits. At the end I was not able to find the post for something similar to this.
In reality, there are only so many topics to discuss and sooner or later, similar topics will resurface, which is fine, if you ask me, as new members join, new ideas come about, etc.
