Overnight your car will be really cold, there is no sunlight beating down on it to keep it warm so to speak. During the day since the sun is out it warms up your car, warming up the temperature in the engine compartment, there by keeping the engine a bit warmer at start up. Don't you notice that it takes your car longer to warm up from sitting overnight than it does during the day?

i cannot believe i just lost 1 minute of my life, reading this horse pucky........
2010 camry LE 4 cyl seem to be noisy and a bit too much vibration when cold start like in the morning..
during the day when starting engine not as noisy or vibrate as much. anybody notice the same?
Probably because the dual VVT-i system isn't operating during cold starts. Takes a bit longer to build oil pressure when cold. The engine runs richer, etc. etc. It'll operate while driving since oil pressure is dependent on RPM.
It's normal.
That and Toyota uses universal pistons for each bore (as opposed to select fit pistons which are costlier), so you'll get a little piston slap until the piston expands to fit the bore properly. Toyota also considers this normal.

The Following User Says Thank You to Jason.MZW20 For This Useful Post:
10 years ago I bought a 2.2L 4 cyl camry solara, I wished everyday that I bought the V6 instead.
With the 2.5 L 4 cyl of my camry going 0-60 in the mid 8 seconds, I have not find myself wishing for a V6 in any situation, I'm perfectly content with the 4 cyl and its close to 30MPG on average with mixed driving.

I need to learn to talk like that when someone ask me a question at work and I don't really know the answer..
Sorry I'm not great with words like the rest of you pride yourselves on......I explained the best I could. Every car when starting up from overnight sounds like crap at first. Everything from my old Sunfire to my 2011 Camry to my mom's old 97 Eldorado did the same thing.

I have noticed this starting up brand new Camry's in the winter. Below 32 degrees the starter and flywheel grind loudly almost every time you start them
