| Answer to: Honda Civic 2018 coupe 1.5 turbo | 14Relevance | 3 years ago | Whatchamacallit | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I traded in my 2017 Toyota camry with 123000. I did not realize the oil dilution issues with the Honda civic 2018 1.5 turbo. Why did you do that? Assuming you had no issues with the Toyota camry, that was a downgrade. You should have researched the civic and its oil dilution issues before you bought it. I would be concerned with that 1.5L turbo engine and its durability. . here’s some tips to mitigate the oil dilution issue: Scotty also recommends using the GF-6 oil. | |||||

| Answer to: Sell 2015 Camry for 2003 530i? | 14Relevance | 4 years ago | FJCruiser2014 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| If you want something that would last you 20 years without trouble and too much expenses and repairs then I would say keep the camry and pass on the BMW. With the BMW parts and repairs are expensive and they have more things to break. Depending on how much you want to spend on excitement and the type of excitement you want you might consider looking at the new civic Si or if money isn't an issue at all then the upcoming civic type R. These give excitement in my opinion but are also good reliable cars. | |||||
| End of Camry V6??? | 13Relevance | 5 years ago | Elliott | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Scotty, Your show is terrific! Two weeks ago, I went to look at a 2021 Toyota camry XLE V6. The dealer had none on the lot and said that Toyota was ending production of the camry V6 in favor of turbo 4s. I have not been able to find any camry XLE V6s. If you look at autotrader or cars.com, only a 2021 camry XLE V6s few show up. Have you heard anything about this. Thanks. | |||||
| New Camry tranny problems | 13Relevance | 5 years ago | allserene | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hi Scotty.. You and I learned of the 2018 camry tranny problems about the same time.. I sold the car at 1 year old as I couldn't stand the rolling stop hesitancy. Yes I had it flashed.. a bit better but not much. I bought the 2017 SE 6 speed which you later endorsed. Yes I bought a camry new, then sold it to get an older one ! Wife has a 2008 camry from new which is great, but she wants a new car and favors the camry even though she knows about the tranny. Have you any up to date info on whether the tranny was fixed so it is smooth nowadays ? They say a new model is out 2024 but who knows about a fix.... | |||||

| 1999 V6 Camry vs 2007 Camry I4 | 13Relevance | 5 years ago | Samotoda | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hi, I'm trying to make a decision of which car I should get rid of, going to be moving and I don't want to take all of them. My final 2 have come down to these: 1999 camry V6 Manual, 195k miles, no problems. 2007 camry I4 Manual, 169k miles, burns 1 quart of oil every 1k miles. I know the V6 camry is older, but it doesn't burn oil. It's a tradeoff I'm not sure what to make the decision of. Any advice? | |||||
| Answer to: Best Car Brand To Buy, Used or new? | 12Relevance | 4 years ago | FJCruiser2014 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| For new definitely Honda or Toyota. While Honda is best option when it comes to turbocharged but if you plan on keeping the car for a long time I would suggest you don't buy turbocharged. The new civic both hatchback and Sedan comes with naturally aspired options too. If you can and want to drive manual then without a doubt get a civic Si; they're really nice cars. As far as styling I have found Honda to be better than Toyota. For example I test drove both a 2022 Corolla and a 2022 civic and the civic interior is much nicer and roomy compared to the Corolla. | |||||

| Answer to: Camry CVT opinions | 14Relevance | 5 years ago | Kerem | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| ... like 200.000 miles for the Accord/Civic CVTs and the Prius CVTs are at 200k 300k miles so Toyota+Honda are the better makers of CVTs. I would just change the transmission fluid every 30.000-40.000 miles and not drive it hard. TBH, the CVT in the camry would be more reliable than the 8 speed which has questionable reliability expectations. Time will tell if the new set ups last or not. Both had their kinks that needed to be worked out. That would be with the 2019 Corolla Hatchback for Toyota when they introduced the launch gear, and the 2014 Honda civic whe ... | |||||
| Should I get a 2007 Civic LX (1.8L I4 5M) with 75k miles or a 1994 Camry LE (2.2L I4 4A) with 69k miles? | 14Relevance | 5 years ago | Rae | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| ... about that 94 that I like. Plus, it doesnt need inspections in nj, low insurance, and I wont get as bothered when my 3 year old spills drinks or puts her feet up etc. I also saw an 07 civic with 75k miles. Also well maintained. Better mpg and manual but it's smaller. I like both but is one a better purchase than the other? | |||||

| I would definitely not buy a Lexus hybrid for 12K... But here's some advice for the Toyotas: Avoid the 07-11 camry, 09 Corolla, 07-09 Scion tC, and the 09 Matrix due to their excessive oil burning with the standard 2AZ-FE 4 bangers. If 12K is your ceiling I would shop for a newer civic, tC, or camry, depending on what size vehicle you want. I really would recomend the Scion as it is a zippy little car that hasn't had the problems like the civics in the 2015-17 era that you would likely be shopping in. | |||||
