I made the conscious decision to purchase a 4cyl specifically for this reason. Drove it until and it had , miles with zero problems. Currently have 4cyl with VVTI and chain. Zero problems. Toyota dealer said it was the VVTI engines. HeidiDog answered 5 years ago. Camry All Camrys from to and V6s from to have belts which should be replaced every 60k miles.
GuruHYVF answered 4 years ago. They have trimming chains for sure in Just had mine replaced after , miles just to keep it another three years at least. Gatrazz answered 3 years ago. Boring but gets me anywhere I need to go.
I have a , Camry manual, its making a gurgling sound on the right side , if I replace the water pump will it stop that? Was else needs to be done , the Car runs well and is in good cosmetic condition , it will break my heart to see it in the junk yard GuruT25TM answered 3 years ago. Got her in the shop now to fix her back up. Depending on the make, model and year of your car, you may not have a timing belt. Because of their material and simple construction, timing belts are much cheaper to replace than timing chains.
Like a timing chain, if a timing belt breaks, catastrophic engine damage can occur. Auto manufacturers started using timing belts because they are much less expensive to manufacture and they run more quietly. The good news is that belts are much easier to replace than a timing chain. There are a number of drivers of a variety of different vehicles that have experienced timing belts that have lasted , miles and there are even rumours of truly astounding feats like timing belts that managed to get to , miles.
A broken timing chain will cause an engine to not start or fail while driving. If it breaks or jumps while driving, the pistons will be damaged from contact with the valves. The valves themselves will bend and potentially ruin the engine.
The timing chain normally needs to be replaced between 40, and , miles unless there is a problem. Skip to content Does Toyota Camry have a timing belt or chain? Do Toyotas have timing chains?

The difference between the two is what they're made of and how long they last. Timing belts are made of rubber and as such are subject to a little more when they are then a timing chain which is made from metal. When vehicles were first manufactured with timing chains, they were all made of metal.
It was around the s when manufacturers started putting into place cost-cutting measures to lower the price of vehicles overall. Remember, this was the time of the oil crisis, and consumers looking for better deals on many products while manufacturers were looking at ways to maximize profits by cutting down on materials and using cheaper alternatives.
Auto manufacturers replaced the costlier timing chain with a much simpler timing belt. Made of rubber, these are designed to handle the high heat of your engine and they do last for upwards of , miles under ideal conditions. These days, many manufacturers are getting back into using timing chains rather than timing belts.
They are much more resilient and should be able to last the life of your vehicle provided nothing goes too terribly wrong. They do cost a little bit more but compared to how often you would need to replace one the cost can even out. If you check out that link, we provided you'll see that Toyota has a wide range of chains and belts across all of their models, depending on the year. Some models went from chains to belts to chains again over the course of several model years.
At the end of the day, a timing chain or timing belt both accomplish the same task, and both are extremely integral to the way your Toyota engine operates. Starting at around or so, most Toyota models switched from timing belts to timing chains. It's not a hard-and-fast rule of thumb, but it does cover most vehicles. You'll have to check your owner's manual to be sure if you're not one hundred percent right now, and with some older models there is a bit of variation.
Toyota 4Runner: If you have a Toyota 4Runner made between and that use the timing chain if it was a 4-cylinder, but a timing belt if it was a V6. Toyota 86 : The to models of the Toyota 86 all have timing chains in the four-cylinder engine. Toyota Avalon : Toyota Avalons made until used timing belts, and then afterwards they switched to timing chains.
Toyota Camry: Toyota Camrys made from to all used timing belts. Between and the four cylinders switched to timing chains while the 6-cylinder stayed at a timing belt. And then from on where they went back to timing chains again. Toyota Corolla : Corolla switched over to timing chains a little bit sooner than some other models did. From till they were using the timing belt. After all Toyota Corolla models regardless of engine type switched to using timing chains.
That said, a Toyota Corolla IM used a timing belt. Toyota Highlander : From to the four-cylinder Highlander engine used the timing chain, while the V6 used the timing belt. Starting in the model year these all switch over to the timing chain as well.
This was almost the same for the hybrid version except hybrids switched to chains in That was from till
