    Toyota Camry 2001: Losing power and blowing smoke

    Toyota Toyota Advice Toyota Camry Toyota Camry Advice Toyota Camry 2001

    The engine in my 2001 Toyota Camry was rebuilt by Toyota under warranty at 90,000 km, but has since had two oil leaks, which were fixed by Toyota, and is now blowing smoke and loosing power. The car has now done 250,000 km.

    The oil leaks are fairly common on all engines, so they’re really not an issue and Toyota has fixed them anyway. To get to the bottom of the smoke and power loss issues you need to have a mechanic check the engine over to determine its inner health. It’s done 160,000 km, so you would expect some wear and that’s possibly the cause of your problems.
