Toyota Camry Engine Oil Coolers

An engine oil cooler is a specific type of automotive equipment that now can be found only under the hoods of racing cars and high-performance road vehicles. That’s because the automotive industry has switched to dedicated engine cooling systems using large radiators and coolant for heat exchange. Because of the high efficiency of such systems, the oil cooling (say extra engine cooling) is simply unnecessary for the vast majority of automobiles. In the past though, manufacturers were venturing with different types of heat exchange equipment, and oil cooling, as well as air cooling systems, were more common.

The current Toyota Camry doesn’t offer an engine oil cooler as standard equipment. In the older days though, it did. One of the reasons why oil coolers are not spread today is because they can become a weak link of the system and thus increase the probability of the failure, which, in terms of engine lubrication, may cause severe damage resulting in the complete engine rebuild. Therefore, if your Toyota’s oil cooler has a leak or is impaired in any other way, you should take urgent measures and replace impaired Toyota Camry oil coolers & components without hesitation.
