Hello,

I recently purchased a 2008 Camry SE. Beautiful car, I love it. However in my excitement of purchase I didn't listen to the engine very well.

My question is this, are the injectors in the 3.5l rather loud? I got home and the thing sounds like the connecting rod or wrist pin is bad lol.

Thanks in advance.

P.S. The search engine didn't have any hits, google wasn't much help either

Toyota has a history of engines being noisy...my 98 2.4 Tacoma is pretty noisy, valve train noise...my 07 V6 Camry has some noise at idle, I think it is valve train, also injector noise. They both run great!!!

Is it a distinct ticking your hearing in your camry?

the ticking is just valvetrain noise
its how a toyota sounds...my 03 SE makes a ticking noise as well, but its simply the noise of the valves....its nothing to worry about, just the engine doing its job

Is it a problem if I hear that ticking while backing out and turning, or moving forward and turning at about 5mph?
