Our 97 Camry with the 4 cylinder 5SFE engine went over 250K today. I realize that this is small potatoes for many of you, but I was pleased. We bought the car with 78K miles and since we bought it, the regime has been exclusively synthetic oil (mostly M1 or M1HM) changed every 5K. As I posted several weeks ago, the mechanic at the Toyota dealer who changed the valve cover gasket described the top engine as absolutely spotless. Given the history of that engine, I am pretty pleased.
