recently very much news about the increase Camry engine oil on the network, it is not only the Camry, including FAW Toyota Avalon and imported Lexus and other very large number of Toyota Series models are showing an increase in oil and oil emulsification phenomenon .
In fact, the increase of oil in 2019 after another appeared, but was not so much consumer feedback, until the end of 2019 beginning of 2020, when more car owners have found similar problems in forums and Automotive publish on the site, this attracted enough attention.
We all know that the oil has a very important role in the automotive among its main role is played lubrication, cooling, sealing, cleaning and prevention corrosion effect, so once the situation there has been an increase in the oil, it will in fact lead to deterioration of the oil, thus affecting engine performance and service life. So consumers must be taken seriously enough to.
Toyota in China, there are three after-sales channels, they are FAW Toyota, Guangzhou Toyota and Lexus import aftermarket. For all three companies, their problem-solving method is not the same.
we start with Lexus, since Lexus is all imported models, and also provides a six-year 150,000 km free maintenance for hybrid models, the Lexus to the vehicle if the emergence of oil increased, or that there has been emulsified a phenomenon directly change the oil. The FAW Toyota and Lexus similar strategy, such as Toyota’s Avalon model is 4 years 100,000 km basic maintenance free. So for FAW Toyota and Lexus, at least you do not have to worry about the cost, free replacement of new oil on it.
and Guangzhou Toyota is different, Guangzhou Toyota’s Toyota car sales in China’s largest mid-size Camry. Although the official a three-year or 100,000 km warranty service, if there is a problem within the scope of services, repairs are free.
The problem is that Toyota has not yet explained the current increase in oil are “problem”, but did not recall measures, and therefore change the oil of such services is still to be consumedWho spend money. And Toyota Camry for increased oil problem, treatment is simple and crude, out come would be finished.
In fact, there are some media also call the Toyota Camry official 400 phone, Guangzhou Toyota official answer is that currently do not know why there will be an increase in oil and emulsified phenomenon of the vehicle, if you find a problem, go to 4S shop near the check, but common practice is to draw out the excess oil on it, rather than replaced with new oil.
also the owner went to the 4S shop to solve the problem, the Internet drying out their sale list above we also see approach Guangzhou Toyota, that is, the higher the standard line of oil extraction, recommended that owners of 3000 to 4000 km check once again.
In addition, in the forum which, in fact, we found that the increase in oil Camry in early 2019 there will be a problem. There is one owner to mention a 2018 hybrid models of the Camry, in early 2019 production, to mention cars in March 2019, the first National Day in 2019 to replace Paul oil, the oil at the time that there has been an increase in the phenomenon. After
After the first maintenance, and traveled more than 6000 km, the total mileage of 14,000 kilometers, to the 4S shop to reflect the situation, 4S shop extracted therefrom to the 1.5 liters extra oil, Toyota Camry and not to the new owners to replace oil, but only the excess oil to come out of this solution to the problem is undoubtedly self-deceiving.
We know that an increase in oil, the oil is not true increases, but fuel oil got into them. Gasoline and oil functionality is completely different, so we have reason to believe that an increase in the oil, which has led to the original original engine oil deterioration occurred, so in lubrication, cooling, sealing and cleaning effect can not fully guarantee . Increased oil will damage the engine and reduce engine life. So from this perspective, the extra oil extraction is not able to solve the problem.
