105,000 on my 2008 and so far, had the TSB done on the moonroof, replaced the tires once (due another set now) and replaced the front struts. Other than that, just regular maintainence with oil, filter, tranny fluid changes as needed. The only person that has ever done anything to the car (other than myself) was the tech that did the TSB on the moonroof.

Will replace the water pump soon and while I'm under the hood, will replace the coolant in the hybrid system as well. These are pretty bullet proof cars....

178,000 on my 2007. Replaced 1 set of tires, getting ready to buy new set soon. Replaced brake pads on rear. Regular oil changes and rotations. Best car I have ever owned by far. Other than the center console squeak, I can't complain about anything on this car. Next to no maintenance. Getting ready to hand this one off to the wife who drives fewer miles and thinking about purchacing another one.

Wow, what type of tires are you using to put so many miles on them before replacing?

I have 95,000 miles on my 2007 TCH (yes you can put that many miles on a car in Hawaii). I have always done the 5000 mile oil changes, just had to put new tires on for the second time, replaced the brakes once, replaced the driver's side sun visor, and that's about it, other than the recall they had made for the brake pedal. No problems, it is such a great car. I was just thinking though, since I got the car 6 years ago, shouldn't I have to replace the regular battery (not the hybrid battery) soon, before it wears out?

oI have almost 98,000 on mine. Just replaced the original Michelins with Yokohama Avid Ascends. Had around 72,000 on the original Michelins. The Yoko's are much better than the Michelins I think, especially in the rain. I have done oil changes at 5000 miles and tranny fluid changes at each 45,000 miles myself. I know they say the tranny fluid is lifetime, but I want my own peace of mind, I don't see how any driveline fluid can be lifetime. It is very simple to change anyway, and not that expensive. Also changed the serpentine belt myself. The only other service that has been needed was the coolant change. I had it done at the dealer and had them check the suspension for any problems. No suspension problems. Great car so far.

Ok, I have recently purchased an ex taxi 2010 Camry Hybrid for A$6500. It has 600000 klms showing. Original engine and gearbox was working fine, heavy smoke on hard accelration and using 1 litre of oil per 1000klms. 5.59l/100klm fuel consumption hwy on cruise control. Around 10l/100km urban, but towing a 500 kg dogwash trailer. Just won a complete motor/transmission assy on ebay,150000klms old, and have fitted that today. will post economy results as they become available. Hybrid battery was replaced at 400000klms, so hopefully another 200000 left in it. Interior trim was a bit tired, but managed to get a 45000klm old set out of an 08 model for $350, so a couple of hours work had the inside like new.

Just hit the 150,000 mile mark on our Camry. Still going strong without any major issues other than the water pump that I replaced. Regular maintenance has been simple and although my daughter is driving it now, I still keep everything up to date when she comes home to visit.

Did you replace your original 12v battery? That would be amazing if you are still using the original.

Ours is a 2008 with 197,000 miles and is still on the original batteries. I guess 6+ years for any 12v battery is pretty good? We do drive it pretty much every day though.

Mine is still on the original 12v battery. When it starts going down, it will be replaced.
