Budget Option (Salvage Yard): $1,500-$2,500
This option involves purchasing a used engine from a salvage yard and rebuilding it yourself or having a mechanic do it. The cost includes the price of the used engine and the parts and labor required for rebuilding.
Rebuilt Engine (Aftermarket): $2,500-$3,500
This option involves purchasing a rebuilt engine from an aftermarket supplier. These engines are typically rebuilt to standard specifications and come with a limited warranty.
Rebuilt Engine (OEM): $3,500-$4,500
This option involves purchasing a rebuilt engine directly from Toyota or an authorized dealer. OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) rebuilt engines are built using genuine Toyota parts and are typically backed by a more comprehensive warranty than aftermarket engines.
Remanufactured Engine (Toyota Certified): $4,500-$6,000
This option involves purchasing a remanufactured engine directly from Toyota. These engines are rebuilt to exacting standards and are often more reliable and efficient than rebuilt engines. They come with a comprehensive warranty and are considered the highest-quality option.
It's important to note that these prices are just estimates, and the actual cost may vary depending on your specific location and the specific year, model, and engine type of your Toyota Camry. It's always best to consult with reputable auto repair shops or dealerships for accurate pricing and options for your particular vehicle.
