Toyota Camry 2006 Black

Review of the car owner Toyota Camry 2006 95th: summer 12-13, winter 15-16, track 7-8 l / 100 km So, a review of the very popular Toyota Camry ACV40. A lot has already been written and said about him, I will bring my own 5 kopecks. I have always read reviews and never wrote, like many of you, but something went wrong with the Camry, the opinions about it are painfully contradictory. Traveled on many cars, it makes no sense to list, each car is individual in its own way. There were representatives of the Japanese and European car industry, there were both bright and memorable cars, and simple carts. Having sold another car and having about 600,000 rubles to buy a car, the choice actually stood between two cars Subaru Forester SG Restayl and Toyota Camry ACV40. Yes, these are two opposites, but this is how he was. Camry came to me by chance. Dealer, 1 owner, mileage 96,000, perfect condition, grade R2, automatic transmission, 2.4 liter engine. The car was bought from a friend with a completely transparent history (mileage, documents, co Toyota Camry 2006 Black ndition). He knew the whole history of car maintenance, road accidents, and so on. At the end of the year of operation, it should be noted that the Camry is not a business class car, which many consider it to be, not a matter of pride and adoration, it is an ordinary car for everyday use. Not very convenient for the city because of its size and at the same time quite comfortable for a family because of the large amount of space in the cabin and a large trunk. This car is absolutely sterile, you will not get any WRX STI drive or S-class comfort feeling in it, you will drive, drive and drive again, just moving from point A to point B. No emotions of wild joy or disgust in me personally for the car is not, I describe it objectively, based on my own experience and the history of vehicle operation. I will compare mainly with the cars of the Japanese market, because it is not correct to compare with Europe, between the cars of Europe and Japan there is an abyss and completely different ideology. 2. Operation and maintenance Operation Toyota is very boring and monotonous (if it is alive) and comes down to only routine oil changes. Boring, especially after BMW or Subaru. So it was with me. Having traveled 30,000 km in a year of operation, the following works were carried out: 1. Changing the oil, oil filter, air and cabin filter - 4 times, it is pointless to describe the cost of filters, there are a lot of them, there are many companies, choose for every taste and budget. For myself, I stopped at the original oil filter, a double air filter of the Sacura type and a carbon cabin filter, because I don't really like standing in traffic jams and smelling the smells around. I change the oil every 8,000 km. 2. Seasonal replacement of wiper blades - 1 time. Original Denso. A year has passed, they are doing their job perfectly well. 3. Replacing the front stabilizer bushings - 1 time. The original is worth a penny. 4. Replacing the steering loop. The original, the price with discounts came out in the region of 3 600 rubles. Trail disease Camry, Lexus RX and a number of other similar cars. This is manifested by the fact that at one point the climate control or audio control on the steering wheel stops working. In my case, the climate control did not work. It is not necessary at all, but the very feeling that something is not working, I do not like. 5. Battery replacement - 1 time. By the way, the car was also equipped with a native Panasonic battery, which began to malfunction in the winter. Replaced with a Korean Solite of a larger capacity. The problem with the launch in winter is gone. The price of the issue is around 4,500 rubles. 6. Another problem Camry - oxidation of contacts in the engine compartment fuse box. This is expressed by the fact that at one point the car stops starting. Everything speaks of the death of the fuel pump, but the fuel pump is alive, the contact in the safety box disappears. Disassembled, cleaned, assembled, traveled for 3 months and again, disassembled again, made an external fuse and the problem went away. That's all. Boring. https://cars45.com.gh/jSM90yiHJY7lijhdxigEJ8tO
