Engine Mechanical problem
2003 Toyota Camry 4 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic

I know I needed an oil change (oil was getting pretty dirty). Kept driving and car started smoking and stopped. Will an oil change fix this problem?

Hi there,

Does the engine still turn over?

Well, it turned over one time, but after that it just made that sound of wanting to start. I think it is practically out of oil.

Hi there,

change the oil & filter, do all the tune items, make sure that the battery is fully charged and see if it will start, make sure you can hear the fuel pump cycle over with the ignition on as well.
