Here is a report from a friends mom's Camry. She brings me the car when her engine maintenance light comes on, which seems to be exactly 5k miles. I just run a Purolator Classic filter in it as well as air filter. This see's country back road driving as well as some 1hr interstate runs.
Code:
No problems to report for this Camry, that's for sure. Universal averages are based on about 5,900 miles, and
the metals that showed up in these results show nothing abnormal going on in this 2.5L I-4 engine. Toyota engines
tend to wear well, and this is one is a great example. The oil was in good shape physically, containing no moisture,
fuel, or signs of coolant. The air and oil filters are working well too, as you can see with the low silicon and insolubles
levels, respectively. The TBN was good at 2.5. Looking good at 78,867 total miles!
