Here's why:
* Year and Model: The recommended oil type varies based on the specific year of your Camry LE. Each year may have different engine specifications.
* Engine: You mentioned a "4-cylinder" engine, but there are different 4-cylinder engines used in Camry LE models.
* Climate: Where you live can influence the type of oil needed (e.g., thicker oil for colder climates).
How to Find the Right Oil:
1. Consult your Owner's Manual: The most accurate information will be found in the manual that came with your car. It will specify the exact oil type, viscosity (like 5W-30), and any special requirements.
2. Check the Oil Fill Cap: The oil cap on your engine might have a sticker or markings with the recommended oil type.
3. Contact a Toyota Dealership: Call your local Toyota dealership. They can provide information specific to your car's year and model.
4. Use a Reputable Online Resource: Websites like the American Petroleum Institute (API) or the manufacturer's website (Toyota) can provide general guidance on oil types.
Important Note: Using the wrong oil can damage your engine. Always check your car's owner's manual for the most accurate and up-to-date oil recommendations.
