Toyota Camry 2009 2.5 engine 2AR-FE
Engine reliability and common problems:
The 2.5-liter 2AR-FE engine replaced the earlier 2.4-liter AZ series and is widely regarded as a highly reliable, long-lasting engine, often referred to as a "million-kms" motor. However, it requires consistent maintenance and high-quality oil to ensure its longevity.A common issue reported by owners is a ticking noise from the VVT-i couplings during cold starts. This characteristic, typical of many Toyota engines, is caused by the lack of a locking mechanism in the coupling's rotor when the engine is turned off. While the sound may be concerning, it does not impact the engine’s performance or lifespan.
Another frequent issue is water pump leaks around the gasket, which often occur after approximately 200,000 km. The timing chain, known for its limited durability, tends to stretch after 150,000 km and may require replacement. Additionally, at higher mileage, some engines experience reduced compression in the cylinders, though this is relatively uncommon.
Overall, this engine can last around 270,000 to 450,000 km if properly maintained, using the correct quality oil and fuel, and carrying out regular checks and maintenance.
The engine has hydraulic valve tappets (lifters), which provide quieter operation and do not require periodic adjustment, but are more complex in design and can cause serious engine damage in the event of failure.

| Camshaft drive | Timing chain Chain motors are considered more reliable, chain replacement usually is required less often than a timing belt, but they are often louder and vibrate more. More service info |
| Timing chain change interval | 150,000 km (recommended) Sometimes manufacturers do not specify timing chain replacement intervals and design chains for engine life. However, once the recommended change interval has been reached, it is recommended to periodically check the condition of the chain and to change the chain if excessive stretching is detected or if unusual noises from the engine or other symptoms occur. |
