My 1st 4 cylinder used Camry..
 

Just wondering how many miles u can get out of a 4 cylinder? Thanks, Lyn

Welcome to CF!

What year of Camry?

300K+ is possible.

Change oil, don't hot rod, run out of oil or coolant (don' run temp gauge in red or can blow head gasket).

Be sure to change the transmission and differential fluid (separate). Automatic trans fluid should be red or reddish, not dark and never black. Auto trans failure due to lack of fluid change is much more common then engine failure.

Thanks Joey...it's a 1994....in great shape, what is differential fluid? It was well cared for...always garage sheltered. Tranny fluid changed, new timing chain, new water pump, new radiator, front brakes...151,000 on it....rides very nice. What kind of tires are best? I need those for the front....thanx, Lyn

Welcome Sir!

Welcome to Camry Forums!
The differential controls which wheel gets power from the engine. Real layman's terms there. Basically, at low speeds if you did not have a differential than both front wheels would turn at the exact same RPM which would really stink when you would make a 90 degree turn as one wheel is traveling a greater distance than the other while in the turn and that tire would chirp away! You may have also noticed someone who was stuck in the snow and when they would give it gas, only one wheel would spin, and that is the differential at work. A lot of off road vehicles have locking differentials that can be engaged so both wheels turn at the same RPM for climbing/mudding purposes.
The point being, it is a pretty important part to the car to maintain.
Again, welcome to the forum.

Hi Batzan....I'm a "Miss" not a sir...a 52 year old "Miss"...sounds better than ma'am...lol

The "transmission" compartment is divided into to section, transmission and trans axle. Both have the own separate fluid reservoirs.

I use Michelin's but everyone has their own favorite. Tirerack.com has reviews on most tires. Then shop locally for best price.

Hi Miss! :)
