About 115k miles on it. She claims her gas mileage has gone down and temp gauge does not go up to halfway anymore (runs cold). She says car seems to run a little rough. Her boyfriend thinks it’s may be the thermostat. Questions: 1. Is this likely in opinion of those who know about these things? 2. How hard is it to swap out the thermostat? Her BF says he’s done it on his car (older BMW) before. 3. any brand recommendations for replacement? I will probably get one online if that’s what is needed. Thanks Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Sep 10, 2013, 12:03 PM Post #2 of 3 (1485 views) Re: 2006 Camry thermostat questions Sign In A colder engine will cause a richer mixture but you need to find out if the engine is actually cooler or if the sensor is acting up. Use a laser thermometer at the outlet housing to find out. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. captjackny New User Sep 10, 2013, 12:22 PM Post #3 of 3 (1477 views) Re: 2006 Camry thermostat questions Sign In Thanks. sounds like I should have her take it to a shop to have someone check it out.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
