> Well where to begin with that one… That motor is known for oil sludge so make sure you pull the dip stick and check for gunk and pull the oil cap and check for gunk buildup. Pull the tranny dipstick if the fluid is black walk away because those trannies shit the bed, I see about 2-3 a week from those/camry’s with that mileage. valve cover gasket leaks, tranny pan leaks, oil pan gasket leaks, front engine seal leaks. Ask when the last timing belt/seals were done. They’re great cars, just known for massive oil leaks. Get me a VIN and i’ll run it in the toyota database @ work and see if its been maintained at a Toyota/Lexus dealer and whats been done to it.

I will get that to ya tomorrow … thank you

as for knowing when shit was done … Im SOL on that one … the car was a trade in at Ray Laks
