Camry :: Advantage Of Rotating Tires

Is there some advantage to rotating tires every 5,000 miles other than evening out tire wear? Why rotation is recommended?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Methods For Rotating Tires

I understand the methods for rotating tires but I'm about to deviate from the norm and only switch two of my tires with one another. Just bought an 08' gx and using my tire tread gauge all tires are wearing evenly across their tread. My front tires are at 7/32(+) and 6/32(+), my rear tires are at 7/32 and 7/32(-).

I'm planning to only rotate my 6/32(+) front tire with my 7/32(-) tire and check again in a few thousand miles. Is rotating based on tread depth smart or is there a reason that the standard rotational patterns are all I can find on google? (+) and (-) indicate slight variations off of a reading, the gauge is not accurate beyond 32nds of an inch.

Sonata I45 (LF 2015+) :: Need To Reset TPMS Sensors When Rotating Tires?

My understanding, and it seems logical to me, that if you rotate the tires and do not reset the TPMS, the pressure and alarm would come from the wrong location. I have been told that the TPMS sensors are, serial number unique and the car needs to know what serial number is at what location.

Anyway, for a do-it-yourself guy to rotate the tires and have the alarms come from the correct location??

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Benefit Of Rotating Passenger Tires With Spare Tire

According to the manual the driver's side tires get rotated with each other so the two tires always stay on that side. The passenger tires get rotated with the spare tire. So those 3 get rotated with each other. I fail to see the benefit of this other than making the tires on the passenger side last longer.

But I would always replace all the tires at the same time so don't see any benefit. When the driver's side needs tires I would replace the passenger side also. And the drawback is I will need to buy 5 tires instead of 4 when it is time to replace them. I am thinking don't allow the spare to be in the rotation tire service.

Prius (Gen 2) :: Schedule For Changing Of Cabin And Engine Filters - Rotating Tires

I own a 2008 Prius and I have been taking it to the dealer for service because it seems like non-Toyota shops don't know how to economically service the Prius.I'm seeing that the dealer I go to also seems to want to change the filters and rotate the tires at every service and this really increases the cost well above a normal oil change price.

How often have people really been changing the engine filter; cabin filter; and rotating tires? How often is this really necessary? I'm at 108000 miles now.

Lexus ES 2007-12 :: Vibration During Driving Even With Balanced Tires

I just can't get my 2007 to drive like a Lexus. At 75-85 I get a vibration. I've had one rim worked on. They said it was bent. So they fixed that and I STILL get a vibration in the steering and in the seat.

I've had the tires balanced by a Lexus dealer. That worked quite a bit, but it still vibrates. Where to take this car?

Camry 2012+ :: Wheel Fitment / Rear Tires Are Choppy Causing Noisy Driving

I might be buying a 14 Camry tomorrow. I test drove it the other day and had it looked at by belle tire. They said the rear tires are choppy causing noisy driving. On the highway it sounds really noisy in the front of the vehicle. Everything else checked ok on the inspection but I was trying to find some wheels that will fit the Camry. 5x114 which my parents have a 95 lexus es300 that has 5x114 wheels. Although the tires are 205 65 15. Do I could put those on and will they clear everything to be able to fit?

Camry :: 2011 - Rotating Noise From Front Wheel

I have a 2011 Camry and I have noticed that there is always a rotating sound coming from the front wheels. The frequency increase as I speed up and decreases as I speed down. I don't think it is the bearing since it always comes, not while turning or changing lanes.

I have attached a video. You can listen to it. The noise starts at 00:27 mark. It is very noticeable around the 1:10 mark. Sounds like something is rubbing against the wheel. Not sure what can cause this sound.

Camry 2012+ :: Engine Vibration At 1150 RPM When Driving

I have a 2012 LE Camry 4 cylinder, and almost ready for the first service. I have an annoying vibration at 1150 RPM when driving. It does not matter if the AC is on or off. I have not discussed it with the dealer yet.

It is not a tire balance problem, it is engine related, and only there at a little less than 1200 RPM.

Camry 2012+ :: Vibration Only While Accelerating When Driving Between 30 And 50mph

I just bought a 2012 camry about two months ago, and now I'm starting to feel some vibration while I'm driving. It seems to only happen when I'm driving between 30 and 50mph, and I am accelerating. For example, I can be cruising at 40mph and go to accelerate and I'd start feeling the vibration. It doesn't happen every time, but enough to know its something wrong. Also I can gas it 0 to 50 and feel no vibration at all. Or I could be cruising between 30 and 50mph, and gas it, I still wont feel it. Like I said it happens the most when I'm cruising between 30 and 50mph, and only when I slightly go to accelerate.

Camry :: Rumbling Noise With The Vibration Continues With Driving

2006 camry LE - 4cyl - 140k miles

[URL]....................

The car idles pretty rough & loud but ive noticed its only when im in 'drive' with my foot on the brake, at stop signs/lights. Its also much worse when the engine is cold. It settles right down if I come to the stop and shift into 'park'. So as I roll to a stop and hold the car in place with the brake the engine starts vibrating.

I dont know much about these things but it almost feels like i'm restricting it by having my foot on the brake and the engine wants more gas or air or something (could be way off base, but thats how i perceive it)

The RPMs sit around 1,000 and as the engine idles/rumbles it gets up to maybe 1,200-1,400 RPMs which i didn't think was significant but im pretty new to this.

Forgot to mention the most important thing- there is a rumbling noise that goes along with the vibrating, again only while stopped, goes away immediately when i pull off the brake and hit the gas.

Camry :: 2010 LE - Vibration While Driving At A Lower Speed

I have a 2010 Camry LE, 2.5L auto, with approx 35k miles. While driving between 65-75 mph (I don't drive above that, so I can't tell you if it keeps going), I get a slight vibration in the seat, floorboard, and steering wheel. If no one is in the passenger front seat you can look over and see the headrest and seat vibrating like a massage chair.

I had the wheels checked and three were bent (I bought it used, so I don't know how the wheels got bent). I had new aftermarket wheels installed, same 16 inch size as the OEM. That didn't fix it. I had the wheels/tires hunter road force balanced, found out the two in the back were out of spec. So I had brand new Michelin MXV4's installed all around and hunter road force balance. That didn't fix it (though it is a lot better -- clearly the bad tires and bad wheels were causing part of the problem).

I had the car aligned to perfection. That didn't fix it.

I had a rear brake that was rubbing so I replaced the discs and pads in the back, but that didn't fix it.

I've checked all the wheel bearings for any signs of being loose, but they don't shake at all when the car is jacked up.

I've checked the struts, both by bumping the car at the corners and a visual inspection, but see nothing wrong with them.

I've checked the CV shafts -- the boots are fine, there's no play in them, nothing.

I've taken the dogbone mount off and checked it -- no cracks.

I've taken apart the front brakes to check them. No problems there (they even have new discs).

I've checked the ball joints -- no play. I've checked the steering linkage -- no play.

There's no pulsation in the brake pedal.

If the car is vibrating at a lower speed, it's not noticeable. But once you hit about 65-70, it becomes obvious to the driver. I've had passengers in the car who didn't notice, but they aren't holding onto the steering wheel and pushing the gas pedal. Both give a massaging-like pulsation.

Toyota - Camry - Vibration - Corolla :: Shaking When Driving Especially Around 35 - 45 Mph On Accelerating

Two cars, a Toyota Camry and a Corolla, are shaking when driving them, esp. around 35-45 mph when accelerating. This started right after a historic snow storm in Virginia that brought 24" of snow and temperatures in the teens and a bit lower. Nothing appears to be wrong with any of the tires. The shaking feels like the car as a whole; it does not really come through the steering wheel. We`ve only driven each car once since the storm.

I`m thinking this may be from all the moisture and cold. Does this sound reasonable? Do you think it might work its way out, or do we have serious problems with two different cars on our hands?

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Vibration In The Front End When Reaching 60 - 70 Mph Range

Last couple months, I've started to have some major vibration in the front end when reaching the 60-70 mph range. Some minor vibration in the 55-60 and 70-75 ranges, but primarily (and worse) in the 60-70 range. It only happens when I'm pressing the gas for more acceleration (particularly when I gun it), not when I'm coasting in that range. I had the tires balanced a month or so ago, so I know it's not that.

Camry :: 2003 - Vibration In Brake Pedal When Driving On Highway And Coming Off

So I changed out my front brakes and rotors on my 03 camry le, and I noticed the driver side pads are more worn out than the passenger side. Also when im driving highway and coming off I notice some vibration in the brake pedal, its not all the time though. Do you think my caliper is partially sticking? I can manually push the piston on the caliper piston using a clamp.

Lexus ES 2007-12 :: Slight Vibration Between 110-130kph After New Tires

I recently purchased a 2009 es in good condition, the tires were quite old and loud and the car pulled to one side. I purchased some primacy's and they are great, however the pulling/poor alignment was still there, I then took it back to the dealership and they rotated the tires which actually worked with the pulling but then there was a slight vibration from about 100-130, by 140 it's gone, but i seldom drive that fast.... I then had the tires re-balanced and the alignment done again, the vibration perhaps lessened but i can still feel it...
