2007 Toyota Camry with 2.4L Engine Gets Huge Horsepower Gain with K&N Air Intake System

The 2007 Toyota Camry is the sixth generation Camry. The conservative style did not change in 2007, but the new design is fresher and younger. There are smaller windows and headlights that have gone horizontal.

K&N Engineering's 69-8610TTK

K&N Engineering has developed a textured black High-Flow Air Intake System (69-8610TTK) for the 2007 Toyota 2.4 liter Camry.

69-8610TTK installed

K&N dynamometer testing showed this small 2.4L engine gained 14.26 horsepower @ 5639 RPMs. K&N High-Flow Air Intake Systems provide a measured increase in horsepower while providing excellent air filtration. Our thoroughly engineered air intake systems provide huge increases in power that our customers can feel when they accelerate.

K&N Engineers protect the K&N High-Flow Air Filter (RU-4990) from engine heat by isolating it with a heat shield. The large K&N Air Filter provides increased surface area and dust capacity. Our air intake system has lower restriction than the factory air box system which results in additional power to the engine.

The 69-8610TTK is designed so the mass air sensor will work with the factory stock settings. This means there is no need for re-programming to run our air intake system.

Our High Flow Air Intake Systems are backed by the K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty and can be easily installed in 90 minutes or less with simple hand tools.

Noisy Car Brakes

A grinding noise coming from your brakes could be an indication that you may have brake trouble. Most disc brakes installed on vehicles have a wear sensor installed on them. When brake pads get low the sensor will hit the rotor, this warning system emits a growling or scrapping noise to remind you to have the brakes checked or replaced. In order to prevent any damage to the rotor surface or caliper you should have your brakes looked at by a mechanic immediately. Don't forget it's the most important system on your vehicle.

Bad Engine Ground

The poor engine ground connection could cause corrosion of the radiator or other metal coolant components. This process is called electrolysis. Electrolysis usually takes place when an engine ground becomes loose or corroded. You can check for this condition by using a Digital Volt Meter. To do so, attach the black end of the meter lead to a good ground (negative side of the battery), and then connect the red lead so it make contact with the coolant in the radiator. Next, crank the motor over, making sure that the test lead does not touch any part of the radiator or the results will be invalid. Care must be taken when dealing with hot engine coolant. Follow all safety precautions and NEVER OPEN THE RADIATOR WHEN HOT!!! If the meter reads more that 0.3 (300 millvolts) you have a problem.

Clean Carbon Build-up from Engine

This tip came as a submission from one of our customers. I felt it was very informative and right on. I wanted to share it with you, as I believe it may help many of you out there. Thanks John for the tip.

"The best way to clean carbon build-up out of your engine is NOT to take the car out and run it as hard as you can. This only results in meetings with local law enforcement personnel, and doesn't do much for cleaning out carbon. If you really want to clean the carbon out of your engine follow these simple steps. Fill an empty soda bottle with water. Remove your air cleaner. Start your engine. While using one hand to control the throttle, trickle the water into the carb or throttle body with the other while holding your thumb over the bottle opening. Keep the engine rpm's up so that the engine doesn't die. Make sure that you don't pour the water in too fast! Water doesn't compress and if you pour too much water in, severe engine damage can result! White smoke from the exhaust is normal. If you have a port fuel injected car, you obviously won't be able to use this method, but I have had success with connecting a vacuum hose to a port at the base of the throttle body and sticking the other end of the hose into the bottle of water. The vacuum of the engine will suck the water in, creating the same effect. This will clean out even the most stubborn carbon, by 'steam cleaning' your cylinders. "

Suzuki Drivability Problem

Many people contacted us about lack of power in their Suzuki Engine. They asked what Suzuki parts they need in order to fix this issue. This issue may not require you to replace any auto parts at all.

The 1.6-liter Suzuki engine can exhibit hesitation and a lack of power due to carbon buildup. The excessive carbon buildup causes the above drivability concerns along with NOx (oxides of nitrogen) emission failures. Always use the proper recommended fuel, which is 87-octane fuel. Use of higher-octane fuel can cause even more buildup. Have the engine intake and fuel injection systems professionally serviced. Your Suzuki dealer will be able to clearly tell you when and how ofter you need to have your fuel injection system serviced due to carbon buildup.

Transmission Problems & Your Chrysler LHS

Auto Transmission problems, weather you use a manual or automatic transmission, may be caused by a faulty thermostat in the Chrysler LHS 3.5L engine. Engine temperature is controlled by the thermostat, which is in turn monitored by the car or truck computer system. An incorrect signal can be sent by the cooling system, causing transmission commands to lock up. This can result in a bucking or surging problem. The thermostat should be checked for proper operation and the coolant should be kept at proper level. Always use caution when working around a hot engine.
