Eliminate chronic piston ring blow-by and oil burning issues with this Toyota Camry 2AR-FE Remanufactured Engine. Each 2.5L 4-Cylinder 16-Valve DOHC power plant features plateau-honed cylinder liners and ultrasonic-cleaned Dual VVT-i phasers. Technicians must perform an oil pump pressure prime before startup and complete an exact 500-mile break-in oil drain to ensure camshaft journal protection.

Constructed with aluminum block casting 2ARFE, this open-deck design features centrifugal cast iron cylinder sleeves align-honed for crankshaft saddle roundness. The rotating group features a micro-polished forged steel crankshaft, forged steel connecting rods, and updated low-friction hypereutectic pistons with optimized oil drain ports. Cylinder head casting 1/2AR-FE receives precision diamond deck milling. Net weight totals 230 lbs inside crated dimensions of 36in length by 36in width by 36in height. Oil capacity measures 4.6 quarts.

Key Features of Toyota 2AR-FE

Fleet maintenance managers buy Toyota 2AR-FE remanufactured engine assemblies to restore original compression and factory fuel economy ratings. This long block replacement provides drop-in fitment for front-wheel-drive sedans and compact sport utility platforms.

- Updated hypereutectic pistons feature upgraded oil return holes to prevent oil ring carbon accumulation.
- Cylinder head casting 1/2AR-FE undergoes CNC valve seat cutting to maintain 0.001in seat runout.
- Diamond plateau honed cylinder walls establish an Ra 14 micro-inch finish for rapid ring seating.
- Micro-polished crankshaft journals eliminate journal taper to ensure hydrodynamic bearing oil film separation.
- Dual VVT-i variable cam sprockets undergo pressure bench testing to ensure proper advance response.
- Multi-layer steel head gaskets prevent combustion leak paths across diamond-milled block deck surfaces.
- Align-honed main bearing tunnels preserve bearing crush and circularity under elevated engine speeds.

Dyno Performance Engine Clearance Tolerances

Dyno cell testing verifies proper mechanical oil gallery pressurization and horsepower output before crate packaging. The 2.5L 2494cc DOHC engine produces 178 HP at 6,000 RPM and 170 ft-lbs of shaft torque at 4,100 RPM. Crankshaft main bearing oil clearances measure 0.0010in to 0.0014in, while connecting rod clearance holds at 0.0012in. Individual cylinder compression gauges show 190 PSI across all 4 cylinders. Hot oil pressure maintains 55 PSI at 3,000 RPM with coolant operating temperature regulated at 190°F.

Vehicle Fitment Drivetrain Guide

This remanufactured long block fits 2010 to 2017 Toyota Camry, 2009 to 2018 Toyota RAV4, and 2011 to 2016 Scion tC models equipped with the 2.5L 2494cc DOHC 2AR-FE engine. Applicable drivetrains include front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive backed by 6-Speed automatic transmissions. This assembly does not fit 2.7L 1AR-FE Highlander chassis, older 2.4L 2AZ-FE Camry models, or 2.5L Atkinson-cycle hybrid variants due to higher static compression ratios and distinct camshaft timing profiles.

Installation Protocol Service Requirements

Technicians must clean electronic throttle body assemblies, check intake runner gaskets, and inspect variable valve timing actuator screens during engine installation. Operational warnings restrict use in custom turbo installations exceeding 7 PSI boost on stock pistons or road racing applications lacking auxiliary oil coolers.

- Pre-fill the oil filter housing and prime oil passages with 0W-20 motor oil prior to first starting.
- Drain initial break-in oil and install a fresh oil filter element after the initial 500 miles.
- Inspect variable valve timing solenoid harnesses and cooling system hose clamps at 1,500 miles.
