Installation is a bit difficult but still manageable. Maybe I'm a weakling bah. Haven't drive the car yet after install. Tonight will let you know.

Nope. If u install correct, it will fill the gap nicely without causing friction when opening or closing the door.

Guys, I have an important question, kinda searched around the forums but no one seemed to take note. Will be posting it in the two camry hybrid threads for max effect.

How do you guys warm-up the petrol engine since the car usually starts in EV mode? Especially cold starts when all the oil is down at the sump and not at the cylinders/pistons.

Isn't it damaging to the petrol engine when it starts abruptly just to take the load without even warming up the lubricating oil and spreading the lubricant in the engine?

Is there a way to force the petrol engine to turn on when you start the car? Or has toyota have a hidden solution that we're not aware of to that issue?

No one seemed to take note ? LOL ! There is no reason/importance to take note of such thing if you own a Hybrid car.

You should have not even bought a Hybrid car if this is what you have in mind.

Warming up is NOT needed anymore in modern vehicle (vehicles that uses Fuel Injection) what's more a Hybrid vehicles that uses HSD (Hybrid Synergy Drive)

Are you even aware that the Camry Hybrid uses a 0-20W Engine Oil ? There is a reason why the Engine Oil used in Hybrid cars has a viscosity that is very "thin" compared to non Hybrid cars.

Good Luck in finding a way to force start the ICE (Internal Combustion Engine).

Betul meh? Since fuel injection? BMW dulu semua ada dynamic rev-o-meter that showed the limit of revving/driving allowed when engine is cold, how about that?

There is a unwritten rule that no matter what engine or lubricant, you still need 30 secs minimum to let the oil spread around the engine before giving it load...

Tanya saja bang, I n00b in hybrid, I just know my straight 6 engines. Sorry kalao offended you in anyway..

you already mentioned "rev limit"...
so usually once you go into driver seat, you "pedal to the max" to and rev over 6,000rpm?
in tropical country like Malaysia, there's no even worry on warming-up car if you drive within 3,000rpm after initial starts. 24-27'c in the morning still need warming up engine ah?

and also if daily "pedal to the max" spirited drive is your driving style, why would you select "uncle" camry "environment green" hybrid btw?

My observation is, once you start the car in the morning, the petrol engine will auto run for around 20-30 seconds and then will auto turn off. This is provided that the car is not driven for more than 5 hours.
EV and Eco mode is turn off as I'm not really particular about fc but this car really save fuel no matter how heavy your foot is. Hope this helps.

Folks, just wondering how did you finance your Camry H purchase? Was it via the normal HP method or via Toyota Drive leasing?

How much was it priced when it was launched? And was there some kind of promotion recently? I was told by SA price will increase greatly next year as EEV will be removed.

Test drove the Camry H last week, nice quiet drive.
