if u'r comparing the avalon to the v6 gen4 camry then i don't see a big difference... they both share the same engine (1MZFE) and they're both FWD and i 'think' they share the same chassis... but other than cosmetic differences then i'd have to say they're the same... but the camry does look better :D

      Help - Blowing white smoke

      I have previously cleaned the PCV valve a number of times and eventually I ended up replacing it. Something else to do is to clean the vacuum hose between the PCV valve and the intake.

      Help - Blowing white smoke

      KLuger and the Aurion both are fitted with the 2GR-FE engine. Specific engines have specific issues. White smoke particularly on start up for the 2GR-FE engine is commonly due to oil vapour being sucked into the intake via the Positive Crankcase Ventilation [PCV] valve. The PCV valve needs to be checked and cleaned or replaced, as required. The 2GR-FE engine is also highly susceptible to oil sludge build up especially in the valve covers when not properly maintained with regular oil changes using quality engine oil. The known solution is to remove the front valve cover and give it a thorough clean to remove the oil sludge build up particularly the area relating to PCV. This enables the oil to drain away more efficiently and effectively to reduce being drawn into the PCV valve.

      Help - Blowing white smoke

      Hi, Not a Kluger guru, but white smoke has always meant water / coolant getting into the combustion chambers, it's steam. Oil burns with a bluish smoke. If the sludge in the valve cover was a whiteish colour then that is also a sign of water, in the oil. Herb

      Help - Blowing white smoke

      Ok so you were right there was a fair bit of oil sludge build up in the valve cover. The cover was removed thoroughly cleaned, the oil changed then a desludging additive put through and then the oil changed again. The oil looked allot cleaner at the end. Unfortunately I am still getting white smoke on start up. Do i need to leave it a while and will the smoke eventually go away or is it time to replace the PCV valve now or would anyone know if there is something else I need to do now? Any help would be appreciated.

      2014 Towbar - anyone have one and installation...

      Hi, Does anyone have a Towbar (including bill and ball) for a 2014 Corolla Hatch that is anywhere near Sydney? Also, is anything required to be done to the ECU? I thought that it was just a matter of tieing into the lights at the rear. Email address is tmoc77@gmail.com. Thanks everyone.

      Body kits for 2002 Toyota Avalon

      Hey man im in a similar spot 🙂 I bought my grandads ‘02 for cheap and fixed it up to sell but actually just enjoy droving it for myself… from what i can see they have the same frame as a Camry so you could try swap the front body panels of a Camry Gracias on there for a sporty look. Or go searching the Japanese shops for parts that fit a Pronard. Thats what the JDM Avalon’s were called. Good luck! I hope to see a neat Avalon around sometime :)

      2019 Kluger 2WD Transmission whine

      I believe that they want to check that you have not been hooning in the vehicle or thrashing it before accepting a warranty claim.
