- I love my Camry. But there’s a lot of little things that I definitely don’t love about it. In this video I go into a bit more depth about what those things are while still keeping it brief and simple. I hope you guys enjoy and let me know what you think in the comments.

Unfortunately the build quality issues are limited to non-Japanese built models like the ones in the US and China. My Japanese built Camry has the build quality of a mini-Lexus. Its flawless.
I should’ve checked before getting it haha but i appreciate the heads up for everyone else!
How do you get the Japanese built model?
@@humanresources2138 You will have to import one from Europe. But they get only the LE and XLE. The middle East like Dubai or Saudi is another option.
Features in a car are subjective based on what you come from. I went from a 2010 Camry to my 2023 XSE V6. The jump in tech was mind blowing. Also, build quality, it's a Camry. You want silence, buy Lexus. I've not had any of the issues you've had. So, not all issues will be universal. You've got to remember what you bought, a Camry. Not a Lexus. Also, you don't really sound like a true "car guy". Anyone who knows, knows you're not gonna get a deep growl from any V6. You've put too a high of expectations while at the same time acknowledging it's "just a Camry".
You’re right my friend it all depends on how you look at it! I appreciate the feedback and the honesty!
@@DLCarReviews you'll get where you wanna be, keep at it. I can tell you enjoy your work here.
Nice video. I have a 2021 Camry XSE V6 and your points are spot on. Overall, it’s a great daily car with good power.
Yeah exactly I love it so much there’s just those little quirks haha
Love these vids about your camry. Excited about the 2025 camry
Thank you so much! I’ll try to keep posting more about it! And if you could share it with your friends that would be amazing if you haven’t already
I have one and added a Boria exhaust the sound is amazing.The entertainment system is very hard to replace with a aftermarket system.But I love my Camry
I’ve considered doing that how much did it cost you to replace it? And yeah the entertainment system I’ll just deal with forever haha
The total cost with installation was 3100 and that’s here in Connecticut.Good luck
@@joecarpio9811 3100???? I paid 1850 after tax for my borla and then just had my mechanic friend install it for some chicken nuggets from mickey d's. How much was labor??? (not saying you're lying or anything, that's just so much)
All of the things you say are true but not bothering. The rattling you say, i only get affected by it when i turn on my a.c to defrost the windows. As of exhaust, i needed something that gave the vehicle more air flow, which motivated me to buy a Borla Cat-back exhaust. Every time i press the gas, the sound the vehicle makes is really satisfying to my ears. Not only do i have more power, but i also have a nice sounding vehicle.
This is an awesome comment! Yeah i think the rattling is different for everyone because of different builds in different places and sounds like your exhaust is dope! Thank you for your feedback and comment!
@@DLCarReviews I got a video Cold starting with the exhaust kit if you're interested in hearing how it sounds. I highly recommend it if you're looking into changing it out
Thanks bro I’ll check it out for sure!
I have this as a 2020. This V6 is the best V6 you’re ever gonna have, and it sucks they’re fading it out. I don’t think I’m ever gonna get rid of mine, and you also shouldn’t. That engine will outlast all of us, as long as you take care of it.
It sounds exactly like a V6 should sound. It’s not a V8 with exhaust.
You should consider keeping this car forever, because you’ll never get that engine again. This is the perfect sedan. Don’t get rid of it.
It is such an amazing car! And yeah it’s gonna last forever! Thank you so much for the comment and yeah I’m gonna keep this car forever!
I recently just bought a Camry xse hybrid. I was going to buy an Integra aspec tech pack but the Camry just made more sense for me!
I’m glad you went with the Camry! Those hybrids are amazing too! How has it been for you?
@@DLCarReviews it’s been great so far! I’ve had it for a month now and driving it has been a great experience for daily driving. I also have a 2021 Lexus ES 350 f-sport and the Camry almost drives same!
Got me a 2024 xse v6. Last of its kind. I agree on exhaust at least in sports mode it should be deeper
Yeah man it’s sad they’re getting rid of the V6! But yeah I’ve heard that the Borla exhaust is pretty good tho if you’re willing to invest in that!
@@DLCarReviews sweet mybe needs a little thug in it lol.
Yuup haha 😂
Great honest feedback. We have a 23 xse 4cyl awd..now I'm looking to trade my 21 accord 2 liter 10 speed in for a 24 v6 xse..how are the cooled seats? Also do you feel it has enough pep to get in and out on highway?
So unfortunately my camry doesn’t have cooled seats but our Lexus does and i figure they’re similar and the ones on the Lexus are pretty good! And yup it has more than plenty of pep to get you in and out of the highway it’s for sure one of my favorite parts about this car!
I got the 23' camry TRD and i love the sound of the exhaust.
That’s awesome man! I’m glad you love it!
Thank you! For the nice review on the Toyota Camry. Those are nice but I’m more of a Honda guy and I have the Honda hrv and it’s perfect for me.
Hondas are great cars! Thank you for the comment!
When I did my car shopping almost 2 years ago, I was actually looking at TRD Camry along with the Accord 2.0T. When I test drove the Camry, it had the same rattles and the small details you mentioned and I wasn't a fan of the center screen without wireless carplay which the Accord Sport 2.0T I was looking at did had. Went with the Accord because of interior and the dealer took off like 2k off MSRP for the Accord and the TRD Camry they added some stuff which added to almost 40k
(Some dealer accessory)
Honda definitely makes some really good cars I’m glad that you made the right decision for you!
I considered one. But ended up going with a used gs350 awd. I love it, better than the Camry in every way other than maybe 1 or 2 MPG lower and requiring premium gas. AWD is great for all the snow where I live and overall its just a great car
Oh yeah that’s a great choice! Thank you so much for sharing that!
I have a 2022 Camry XSE V6 with 18,000 miles. My car rattles as well. I put foam strips between the rear glass and rear deck to help with the JBL subwoofer rattle. I also had rattles and sticky adhesive sounds coming from the headliner around the panoramic sunroof. The dealership inserted foam and felt pieces between the headliner and roof and it has helped tremendously. My hood also visibly flutters while on the highway - I was told it was normal due to it being a lightweight aluminum hood. I love the looks of my Camry, especially the two tone appearance and blackout package, but I am disappointed with the build quality. I expected more from Toyota.
Thank you for this comment it’s actually super informative and helpful!
The Woobly Hood. Maybe since I removed the Hood Prop Stick and installed Lift Supports with air going under or along the side of the hood prevents that bouncy fluctuating or ripple like appearance. I also installed a Front Top Strut Brace by BracerOne Performance to cut down Body Roll but with new cars there should not be any body roll but could be preventing front frame stress making the front sturdier. There is a whole lot of thin cheap rubber stripping used on the Camry hood, trunk, and doors. Also, the Panoramic Roof is made cheap but I always keep it closed since I don't use it just like I never used any of the Sun/Moon Roofs in 3 previous vehicles, also the shade stays shut too.. I know the Camry TRD does not get a sunroof but the Camry TRD was made wrong and it sux to begin with.
Thank you for the comment once again! You always give very insightful and helpful comments which I highly appreciate!
I kinda wish there was at least one awful deal breaking feature so I could finally convince myself not to buy it 😭
Toyotas tend to do everything right haha can’t go wrong with them 😂
On build quality: I have the same gripes. Thought my car was substandard. Good to know it's consistently bad lol
Haha yup all of us camry owners are in this together 😂😂
Overall, it is not build quality on rattles. Toyota doesn't put enough insulation in the interior. Complain about it at the dealership.
The trd exhausts sounds amazing borla makes a cat back exhaust for the Camry that sounds really good check out TH-cam video on that.
Thank you so much for the advice brotha!
I have the XSE AWD. I had so many annoying interior panel and dash raddles that I started taking them apart to add sound deadening material. Different panels make noise depeding on how cold it is outside too. Also thinking about trying a wireless carplay adapter.
How long did it take you to take it all apart and how much did it cost? That’s also genius I’ll probably get on of those wireless carplay adapters
Maybe 10 min to take off all the door panels. It's faster with a trim removal tool and a power drill. About the same for part of the passenger side dash that was vibrating. Maybe $40. I used boom mat tape, foam tape, and felt
Me too lol. I have a 2020 Camry SE and there's a little rattle that I can never seem to pinpoint where it is coming from. It pisses me off every time I go on the highway lmao
@@TrentonTruongI have the same issue just got my new Camry 2 weeks ago and it makes the same noise and I can’t pin point exactly where it’s from lol still love the car rides smooth fast enough GREAT on gas and looks good!
Oh! That’s so frustrating to spend more than thirty Grand only to find numerous noises and rattles! I paid less than HALF of that on my preowned Lexus ES and it still has zero issues, noises, squeaks, rattles, or anything to repair (other than normal maintenance). None.
True, It’s not as exciting to look at, granted, but oh how I hate paying for repairs or issues. Something to consider?
what is your tint setup?
I know your pain, we have a 2022 RAV4 and the driver door trim makes all kinds of noise unless you're on completely smooth pavement. The entertainment system is super laggy.
Glad to know I’m not the only one! Thank you for sharing!
I have a 2024 XSE and right off the bat not even 1K miles everything rattles so bad on the interior, again it’s a Camry like you mentioned but I came from a 2023 Accord and not a single rattle after 20K miles! Highly Considering an IS 350
Yeah man idk what’s up with all the rattling it’s so annoying 😂 the IS350 is honestly not a bad option at all we have one of those too and you are for sure gonna get much better build quality!
I was totally gonna get a new Camry till I learned about the driver side 'handle thingy' being kind of hard to pull down and making noise and such. U N A C C E P T A B L E! 🤪
I’m not sure if that’s the case for every camry but unfortunately it’s the case with mine!
@@DLCarReviews My camry v6 is 21 years old and going strong.
@@guntherultraboltnovacrunch5248toyota was a much better company then. keep your camry for a sling as possible
hey guy dont let it tarnish your ownership esp loving your car aside a few things,that grab handle is most likely a quick-fix and im certain your warranty would cover it,just get it fixed@@DLCarReviews
What is your tint level?
I have one just like that.Only thing i hate about mine is the plastic stripes at the rear tail lights. My speakers sound great and no hood lift.
Yet!
I’m glad that yours doesn’t have some of the issues that i have to deal with! Hopefully it stays that way!
Haha yup! It should be fine though!
Hit the rev limiter when you revving it , makes it sound way better bro
Ayy i appreciate that bro!
@@DLCarReviews no problem bro
So stuck between wanting this car and a new civic, I know this car compares more to an accord but I dislike the look of the new accords. Thanks for the review this is something I’ll be looking out for while car hunting!
The new civics are absolutely amazing as well. It all depends on what’s most important to you. Thank you for the comment though and good luck car hunting!
If you’re not in a rush getting a new car, wait for the 2025 Camry (unfortunately only available in hybrid, though if I’m not mistaken)
@stephenhuang8016 only issue with new generation vehicles is that they are new and not everything that the vehicle has will be mastered. Think of it like a remaster to a video game. It's still great but when it's remastered, it's pretty much flawless.
@@999lone5 you are absolutely correct on this one. I totally forgot it’s gonna be the new gen of Camry 😕
@stephenhuang8016 Yeah, I had the choice of buying a new 24 or 23, but the dealer guy gave me the pros and cons of both. For one. 23 are gonna be the last time they make them V6, and after that, they'll be hybrids. I have no issue with hybrids, but I prefer my car to run on gas 100% of the time.
Enjoy it while you have the car. No more V6 on 2015 Camry. 😂
Yeah man crazy that they’re going turbocharged 4 cylinder from now on !
FACTSS! Yeah what this guy says it honestly true but it's not something I'd get bothered by. Only thing that would bother me is turning on my A.C to max and hearing a rattling sound inside the front panel where it defrost my mirror in the morning
A wobbly hood would definitely annoy me. Would it be possible for you to reinforce it somehow?
That’s a very good question I’ll have to look into it!
Dont listen to this crap. I have one. No wonbles at all
Crazy my 2023 Camry v6 xse is awesome the entertainment center isn’t the best but it’s good the build quality is amazing I’m at 93k and it’s just awesome I’ve had one code an it was for the gas cap. Overall the car sounds looks and feels amazing overall I would never buy the newer ones I like the look of the one I have and it feels good too the newer ones are cheap and built poorly
ive read and scrolled down to alot of the posts on here posted,and im STUNNED frankly about the top-tier camry having rattles during infancy miles,and between the staggering recalls from the supra(oh yeah that car) it seems appearantly clear to me that toyota is going downhill very fast oddly enough given its past reputation
Yeah it sucks but i trust that I’ll never have to deal with any major engine or transmission issues 🙏
does your Camry have the rattles and squeaking others have complained about?you are very right on the engine and tranny@@DLCarReviews
Ive heard that the xle version is a more softer ride is that true?
Yes, the LE and XLE have a softer ride than the SE and XSE because they tuned the suspension differently. I got my 2020 Camry in the SE trim, which is definitely stiffer than I would prefer. If I could go back in time, I would have purchased the LE or XLE instead
Yeah i believe they have a bit more focus on sport for the XSE and SE whereas they have more of a focus on luxury for the LE and XLE!
My TRD clinks in reverse on cold start
That’s so weird do you know what’s causing it? And how long have you had it?
I'm bringing it to the dealership 2/7 to get it looked at. I owned a 2017 Camry and it had the same exact problem. That time it was bad motor mounts. Hopefully the same this time. Only started happening during this winter which is its first. Hopefully they don't give me a hard time about tuning the car. That doesn't have anything to do with how the motor is mounted, especially with only 5k miles. @@DLCarReviews
I think it's dumb to put the volume control and channel controls on different side of the steering wheel. In my Honda, all the audio control buttons are in one place on the steering wheel. I can control them using one hand.
I’ve actually been thinking the same thing recently like it’s just kinda inconvenient
@@DLCarReviews Yeah, you have to put both hands on the steering wheel to use music.
Y O U KIDS AND YOUR LOUD CARS... its like the only reason I'm happy for the EV revolution.
Haha yeah i agree those electric cars are awesome!
Was this assembled in the US or Japan?
I believe this one was assembled in the US but i will double check
@@DLCarReviews
Ya usually you don't have worksmanship issues if it is asembled in Japan.
Most are assembled in Kentucky.
You missed only the two interior exhaust pipes are real. They could have tuned the V-6 but its a Camry. The IS350 is the better package for that and an extra $10K.
Very good point thank you for pointing that out!
What is the gas mileage you are getting on average?
I’m getting about 25 mpg total!
@@DLCarReviews you mean combined?
It’s a family car not a hotrod
Haha very true!
What is going on here? “I hate the exhaust on my 4 door family sedan”…. WTF?? You know there is a TRD version of this you can buy or actually just buy the exhaust. “Things I hate, that bug me a little bit.” That doesn’t make sense. It is funny to hear how people bitch about things that are not on their car but then also bitch about how things are getting too expensive.
Good point man crazy world we live in! I appreciate you taking your time to leave a comment and give your feedback!
Resonator deleted 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
@@DLCarReviews cheap mode but good outcome. Nice sound 😁😁
GR
Yuuup!
Why did you buy it? Yikes
Honestly just the reliability of a Toyota and the really cool look. I wanted this car for a really long time so i decided to just buy it! The V6 makes it so much more fun too
I hate that it lacks features its a 2024 it should have every tech and there is no distinction between the 2023 and 2024 models so dumb
V6 camry is silly
Yeah haha i love it
