- In this video a former master mechanic and Engineer gives you his pick for the most reliable used car on the road in 2022. If you need a dependable used car for under 6500$ This video is for you !
2004 Toyota Camry LE owner, 4 cyl 2.4 L with 166k miles, but the previous owner (s) were a disgrace when it came to taking care of it. Im just happy i bought it super cheap so i can use the money to repair it and upgrade it
Nice - New cars get more expensive every day… keep it as long as possible 👍
I bought a used 2003 Camry 8 years ago with 130,000 miles on it for 3500 bucks. I also will NEVER sell it! Runs like a dream and besides changing the brakes / battery and oil...I have only had to change 1 ignition coil and very recently the starter. This car is now reaching 200k miles and again...I will never sell it. Best 3500 dollars I have ever spent.
Camry owner for LIFE😎 👍💯
Facts mine has 353,000 miles on it!
Nice ! Is it the 4 cylinder or 6 ?
I own a 2005 Camry and its a tank of a car. Bought used and now well over 350,000 kms. Toronto Canada
Absolute TANK ! FACT 👍💯
Yeah well i'm a car guy and have owned over 100 different makes and models. My dad bought a 04 Camry brand new and gave it to a family member after 10 years, but 3 years later the 4cyl through a rod and the engine is toast at 190k.. i couldn't believe it when i heard the news. i might get the car and replace the 4 banger
@@loumason6120 Sounds like a good plan 👍
I do know that generation with thr 2.4L had striped head bolt issues. I bought a 2006 dirt cheap back in 2020 but needed a new head gasket. I don't think a recall was ever made for for just a service bulletin. They also burn quite a bit of oil. But other than that, these cars are bullet proof reliable. Valve cover leaks and ignition coils are common maintenance items that go bad over time. Just keep up with the maintenance they can last almost forever. I have about 213k miles on mine as I bought it already with 187k miles on it.
Cool - you got about another 800,000 miles of life left 😎
Cool I have a 91 2.0 dohc and speedometer stop working 3 years before I junked 465, plus
Nice - My mom had a 92 Camry, it was a great car 👍
The 2002 to 2006 gen has the 2AZ-FE engine that burns oil but starting 2012 they replaced the engine with the 2AR-FE which had no problems. So I would highly appreciate your advice on which generation i should get because I am quite confused after watching your video.
Thanks in advance
@@amrtarek-c7w Not every year of the 2.4 liter engine is known for oil burning. Just the ones with low compression piston rings. My understanding is that- there was a TSB and extended warranty beginning in 2007 6th generation Camry for the oil burning issue.
That being said - a fifth generation Camry May burn oil at this point because it’s a car that’s about 20 years oil. Any car this old May burn more oil than a new car. Valve seals dont seal perfectly forever 🤷♂️ Mine burns a little oil but I just make sure to change the oil every 5 k with Mobile 1 high mileage full synthetic. 275k now… I’ve seen them with over 350,000 miles and still going. 🚗

That being said - If you have enough money to buy a 2012 or newer Camry with the 2.5 liter engine …. And you can find one in good condition… then yeah get that one. It’s about 10 years newer lol. I have a 2004 Camry with a 2.4l and a 2017 Camry with the 2.5 and they are both doing fine. I gotta replace the radiator on the 04 though.. It’s over 20 years old now 🤷♂️lol

I just bought a 2005 Camry 4cyl 122k miles. Absolutely happy with it but what should I do about the trans fluid? There was no history of it being changed but it's still bright red and shifts fine? Advise?
If it’s bright red, smells ok and shifts fine, the fluid has been changed at some point. There’s no way 20 year old fluid would still be red and smell ok. The problem is YOU don’t know when the fluid was changed last.
If I were you, I’d (gently) drive it around a month or two…. Then go ahead and do a transmission drain and fill using the OEM fluid. You won’t get out all the fluid… but that’s ok. That’s good in fact. On older cars, I think flushes can do more harm than good sometimes.
I’ve never flushed my trans fluid on my 04 Camry. I just drive it real gently and do drain and fills approx every 50k.
You can go ahead and change your other fluids at that time if you want. Brake fluid, coolant and power steering fluid. Keeping your fluids changed, with the factory fluid… and driving the car nice and easy… will extend the life of the vehicle as much as possible 👍
Don't get it flushed when you change it in the near future and leave about a quart of the old fluid in it.
When buying a used car what is the max mileage I should buy or not buy because so many people are selling their cars for a lot of money but the year and mileage is a lot. Would a 2004 Camry go cross country on long road trip?
It depends on the 2004 Camry lol
And for max miles… it depends on the car and what kind of shape it’s in.
It’s actually harder to drive around a city for two weeks than it is to drive on the highway across the country. Highway miles are much easier on a car than city miles.
If it were my Camry… that now has 274,000 miles… I might replace my fuel pump first because it’s the original fuel pump and fuel pumps in Japanese cars I’ve noticed tend to go out before 300k(which is ALOT of miles BTW)
Other than that I’d just inspect it and make sure there was anything it needs.
For your potential cross country road trip car… How much do you have to spend ?
Let me know when you do american car video! I agree with you on cars.
Thanks 👍 Ive got a few now in my - what is the best year play list. Including: Ford Edge, Ford Fusion, Dodge Charger and Buick Lucern. I’ve got some more American cars coming up. It takes a while to make them but I enjoy making used car review videos 💯
My 2005 2.4l 4-cylinder Camry has just over 90K miles but it definitely burns oil (I bought it brand new). It’s not a fun car to drive, but extremely reliable. When it was new, I would get 27 mpg. But now it’s only 20 mpg. Does anyone know if the lower mpg is a result of the oil burning?
@@sanjivpatel4016 That can cause a lower mpg.. but it could also be a lot of other things causing lower mpg. Ex fuel injectors, spark plugs, engine performance issues etc.
If you have to choose between a 2005-2006 Camry or or Corolla which would be more reliable? I know they both are reliable but which is more reliable the 2.4? Or the 1.8?
Ehhhh … IDK that’s a close one. I’d take the Camry because it’s bigger and would be better in a crash. Also, it has more room inside. If you’re not worried about size….
I’d take the one that’s in better condition… and if you have access to the maintenance records- the one that has the better previous owner. You don’t just shop a cars year and engine by themselves…. With used cars … especially ones this old… Closely inspect the individual car and Try and screen the previous owner as much as you can. I made a video on how to screen the previous owner here:
Master Mechanic shares 3 NEW secrets for picking a GREAT used car !
czcams.com/video/uADJ-f39pvE/video.html
My 2006 Camry was bought new and uses synthetic Mobil 1 with only 100k. Repairs have been front brakes, alternator,water pump,fan belt,change radiator fluid,battery. Front struts are pending. I use it for most local travel, stop and go.
Looking 2004 camery le 2.4 tomorrow with 63k miles for $4500. They undercoated the car with grease. Is that sketchy? It was a vermont car. Anything else i should look for? Im bringing bluedriver code reader. Thank you!
Undercoating a car with grease is a known way that people try to prevent rust. So it’s not sketchy in an of itself. I’m just hoping they didn’t apply it to the vehicle in hopes of covering up an already super rusty situation.
For cars - some surface rust is not a big deal… rust becomes a safety problem when it gets deep and parts / frame begins to flake of and crumble. If I were you I’d pay a mechanic or mobile mechanic to go with you to look at the vehicle.
You can find one in your area on Craigslist most likely. They can bring those little plastic ramps to drive the car up onto to get a good look underneath and make sure your not buying a rusted out, unfixable disaster.
Remember you’re NOT looking for perfection here: just looking to a avoid wasting several thousand dollars. If the mechanic finds a-few small things wrong ie tie rods, small leaks from the valve cover gasket or power steering rack… I would still get the car, (you can fix them at your discretion) use those things as an excuse to lower the offer 2 or 300$… Then that will offset the cost you had to pay the mechanic. If they find it’s really in terrible shape. You’ll lose 100/150$ inspection fee…. But you won’t lose your whole 4500$ 💯👍

I have a 03 Camry same color as yours. I got off a butty of mine for 1,000 2 years ago. It now has over 300,000 on it and runs grate I did nave to put a starter and alternate in it about a year after I got it and I burns a little oil. Had forged over lights I got new ones with a black backing I put a black billet grill in it just to darkin it up. A cool air intake red valve cover.

Do you have any thoughts on the Chevy Impalas the later ones with a 3.9 or 3.5 motors? you see them for sale sometimes - would they be OK if you can't afford a good used Camry or Honda Accord? Outside of the Ford Fusion, are they any other American Cars what would be OK as a daily driver for a while? thx Any thoughts on older Hyundai or Dodge/Chryslers? I know those aren't the best but are any OK? thx.
Ehh.. I’m not a big fan of Impalas or old Hyundai/Kia.. I know for Dodge.. if you get something with the 3.6l engine try to make sure it’s not one of the first series, they had a problem with valves but they got it fixed eventually. Also if you can get one with the zf 8 speed transmission, that’s the better pick. ZF is a different company that Dodge buys their transmissions from and they are pretty good.
But with any car have a mechanic check it out before you buy it. Also try to look at the car fax - some dealers have it online when you’re shopping on their website- sometimes they show maintenance records. If you can find a car with one owner (two at most) who did all their maintenance religiously then grab that car. That’s how I picked my second Camry. I saw the carfax online- it had one owner- oil change ever 5000 miles - coolant and trans flush done etc.. When your shopping for a used car- you don’t just shop for a good car- you shop for a good previous owner lol
Have seen many impala's last over 300k miles still run very comfortable to especially the v6
Thanks for not mincing words about the current administration being the root cause of so many peoples financial troubles. Subscribed.
Haha thanks.. I made this video almost two years ago, not much has changed 😆
Been watching a couple videos and notice you tend to shy away from the V6’s. If u were to choose one with a V6 or an engine with similar pep. What would u go towards? Budget is 9k. Been looking a lot at 09/10 elantras, 12-15 Taurus’s, Camrys, and Pontiac’s/Buicks with there 3800 engine. If I were going to choose one for most general reliability with the 9k,v6 or simular engine what would u choose?
My last car was 1995 Toyota Avalon and loved it. Was reliable and had a bit of pep.
You could get another Avalon… a Buick Lucern with the 3800 (I made a video on that car) or a Lexus es350 or es330… it’s basically the same platform as the Avalon anyways.
What ever you do make sure to screen the previous owner… That’s the key. I made a video on that.

I'm looking for a 2009-2011!
Yo Mj I have a 2019 ford eco sport 54k miles but am waiting on the recall fix for months. Thinking about cashing it in and picking up an older Corolla or Camry. What do you think? I just don’t think fords are made that well anymore obviously plus the car is slow and not known to last the mileage that Toyotas do. At least I don’t think so
Interesting, in most cases… I try not to be overly general in critiquing specific brands. But rather specific vehicles.
So for your eco sport…. What’s the recall you’re waiting for ? Do you have an estimate as to when the parts will be in?
If your not happy with it cause it’s too slow, that’s ok..
What are the 3 most important things you want your next vehicle to have?
How much are you willing to spend on it ?
From these answers I can recommend your next vehicle 🚗
@@MJ100k The recall is for the oil drive belt tensioner arm. Many eco sports have blown up engines because of this. They say the will have the new part before July 1st but who really knows as they are waiting for a 3rd party to design the new piece. It was recalled in February and I refuse to drive it because it could cause a wreck (loss of oil pressure)
I don’t mind slower cars, I had a 2000 Corolla last time and it was slower but It was more or less reliable. But this thing is very slow. It’s a 3 cylinder 1 liter engine. It can’t get out of its own way. I think my 2000 Corolla had more pep. That’s also why I don’t think it will last long. Overworked tiny engine.
The main thing I am looking for in a car is reliability period. I don’t need any crazy tech. And I like cars with reputations that last forever like the Toyotas and maybe Hondas.
I could drop 10-12k maybe 13k max.
@@benschmidt1353 Ok cool. I’ll give you a couple picks later on this evening. I gotta go to work right now lol 👍
@@MJ100k fasho thank you Mj
Any used car can have problems. Even Toyotas and Hondas. I try to get cars with a low chance of expensive problems. So when I look at used cars I try to focus on the engine and transmission.
Any of the cars on my what is the best year playlist are potential good used vehicles. I also have videos on how to shop for used cars using the carfax and trying to screen the previous owner. That topic has a playlist too. I’d watch how to shop for the best Honda Crv - so you can see how it’s done.
A vehicle I haven’t done a video on yet is the 3 rd gen Ford Escape years 2017-2019. I haven’t done all the research on the car yet but it does look promising. There are several at over 200k for sale right now, which is a good sign. For this car get the 2.5 liter duratec engine. If I’m getting a used Ford… I’d get one with a duratec series engine and not a turbo eco boost engine. Those eco boost can be problematic.
Here’s an example of one I would get if the car fax and pre sale inspection checked out:

What’s the most amount of miles an older car (2004-2008) should have considering the previous owner kept up with maintenance and I hire a mechanic to thoroughly inspect it? I’m currently looking at 2004-2008 Toyota Camrys, corollas and avalons. I want to be able to keep the car for at least 10 years without any major problems. I’m just not sure how much mileage matters if the cars been taken care of and doesn’t have any problems. I’m still reading more about it online.
@@jasminecontreras7341 If it were me, I’d try to get one with under 160,000 miles and try to put 100,000 on it. I’d stick with the 4 cylinder engines. The Avalon only comes with a 6 cylinder engine. It’s a good engine too but cost a little more to work on. Even if you get a good car there is no guarantee there won’t be any major problems. It’s just much less likely. If something big goes like an engine or transmission it’s easier and less costly to replace in a four cylinder. Also, when I get a used car I try and shop the car AND the previous owners. A good previous owner is a huge part of the equation. A bad previous owner can turn any great car into a terrible car. I’ll talk about this further in a video coming up in a week or two. 👍

@@MJ100k Super helpful video. I actually just got a call from the body shop saying that my 2016 Chevy Cruze was deemed a total loss after a collision that I got into last week. I really want to down grade to something modest and reliable that I could possibly use all of my insurance settlement to buy in cash. If I don’t have a lot of good options with the settlement amount I get then I’d consider getting a good car for 10k or less from a dealership to finance and hopefully get a monthly payment that’s lower than 200. The car I had before the Chevy Cruze was a 2008 Prius and I thought it was a good car, I got it for 10k with 50k miles on it. It ended up giving me a lot of problems like a transmission problem that was around 3k to fix. Also, in your recent video you mentioned some things that drain the car battery. Does getting a back up camera/apple car play system installed into an older car mess with the car battery?
Will a 2001 have the same engine and transmission of that generation you mentioned?
No - the 2001 Camry has a 2.2 liter engine. It’s still pretty good though. It has a timing belt that needs to be changed every so often… But, it’s a non interference engine… so if it breaks you most likely won’t damage internal engine parts.
As for transmission, the 2001 also has a 4 speed automatic transmission but it’s different internally.
is the 2004 the best gen 5 Camry ?
They’re all good from the 5th generation. In 2005 abs becomes standard equipment in all trim levels. Before that, it was only on the higher trim.

At this point all these generation Camry are extremely old… So I would just focus on screening the previous owners maintenance as much as you can …. And inspect the individual car in front of you. So get any used car inspected by a mechanic first. You’re not looking for perfection. So don’t get too picky… but you want to avoid disaster ie rusted out frame - unsafe hacked up repairs- flood damage… things like that.
Two cars can be from the same year …. And one of them is in terrible shape and one is in great shape.

What changed on the Camry in 2007 that made you put the cut off after 2006?
It’s the next generation Camry after mine. In North America they stopped offering the 4 speed transmission as an option. The 2007 and up .. that generation only offers the 5 and 6 speed automatic transmissions.. which were known for having some issues. Also some of those years had oil consumption issues as well. If you wanna get a 2008 around the same price I would get a 4 cylinder Honda Accord. I have a video about it on my Channel. czcams.com/video/aiew6UXUNVY/video.html
I mean it’s not a terrible Car .. the 2007 Camry.. but i think the 4cylinder Accord (not the 6 cylinder) is a better car for 2008-2012.. Also make sure to try and screen the maintenance records of any used car and have a mechanic check it out before you buy it👍
@@MJ100k SO long story short the tranny changed in 07 to less dependable one, but 4-cylinder engine stayed the same?

What do u think about the toyota avalon?
Avalon = very nice 👍 But like every used car… make sure to screen the previous owner and have a mechanic check it out before you buy it. I made a video about how to screen the previous owner if you wanna check it out. 👇

Bro doesn't this 2.4 litre engine has oil burning issues???
Not every year of the 2.4 liter engine is known for oil burning. Just the ones with low compression piston rings. My understanding is that- there was a TSB and extended warranty beginning in 2007 6th generation Camry for the oil burning issue.
That being said - a fifth generation Camry May burn oil at this point because it’s a car that’s about 20 years oil. Any car this old May burn more oil than a new car. Valve seals dont seal perfectly forever 🤷♂️ Mine burns a little oil but I just make sure to change the oil every 5 k with Mobile 1 high mileage full synthetic. 275k now… I’ve seen them with over 350,000 miles and still going. 🚗
@@MJ100k thank u for the information man😊
@@mohammedrashed2254 Here’s the TSB 👇

I don’t think the problem is inflation. I think it’s greed.
So people just recently became extremely greedy ? 🤔🤣
@@MJ100k although greed, been an existence for many years it really picked up when the last president was on his way out of the door. Interest rates came down job numbers went up and a whole bunch of other things have turned positive in this country. The problem is greed. Everywhere even when you go buy something to eat you get less but they charge you the same amount of money or more. While some may consider business.
I have a 2005 with 33 ooo miles lol
Wow that’s low miles. 👍 Drive it ! Lol
It had 11,000 when I bought it from an old woman
Last year
@@3vstang Nice ! 🚗

I can't wait till we get to a place where we can watch videos without bringing politics in it. The president doesn't have anything to do with what you're talking about not only that, it's not like prices haven't been high before he took office or before the him took office or the one before him and so on🙄
He has everything to do with inflation. Prices were not as high before he took office.
Somebody got butthurt and figured to comment instead of just, IDK, NOT WATCHING THE VIDEO🤣
I like when he brings politics into it because they are my politics too. Gas was made unaffordable by the Biden admin's policies. It's our biggest expense now. Regular people pay for all the bad decisions those clowns in DC make.
You dont look trustworthy
@@MrSrtman18 I only give good advice.. You should definitely buy a second generation Honda Odyssey. Make sure the transmission fluid has never been changed for best results 😉
@@MJ100k right on! Haha! Told u. Are accords any good. 2013?
@@MrSrtman18 Get a 2008-2012 Accord with the 2.4l instead
