Used Toyota Camry engine in Los Angeles. Matched to your car and to California rules.
Looking for a used Toyota Camry engine in Los Angeles for a 2012 car? In California, the replacement has to match your original engine to avoid a BAR Referee inspection. Tell us your engine and delivery ZIP code. We source a matching unit and confirm price and delivery.
2012 Camry engines, and why matching matters in LA
California’s Bureau of Automotive Repair treats a matching used engine as a replacement. A different engine is an “engine change” and must first pass an inspection at a BAR Referee Center. Start by identifying your original engine.
Factory engine options for the 2012 US Toyota Camry. Match your original engine.

Fuel and transmission
Before you request a replacement
2.5L 2AR-FE 4-cylinder
Gas · 6-speed automatic
The engine in most 2012 Camry sedans. Match the VIN engine code and ask what is included.
3.5L 2GR-FE V6
Gas · 6-speed automatic
Fitted to V6 models. A 4-cylinder car needs a 4-cylinder replacement, and the reverse.
2.5L 2AR-FXE hybrid
Hybrid · electronic CVT
Camry Hybrid only. It is a different engine from the 2AR-FE. Call to discuss hybrid sourcing.
BAR counts a used engine of the same make, number of cylinders and engine family as a replacement, as long as the original emission controls go back on. Replacements do not need a Referee inspection; engine changes do.
Los Angeles County is huge. Give us the delivery ZIP code, the shop’s address and receiving hours, or tell us it is a home delivery, so freight and timing are quoted for where the engine is actually going.
ADS Auto Part helps Los Angeles customers source used 2012 Toyota Camry engines from owned inventory and suppliers. Match the original engine (2.5L 2AR-FE, 3.5L 2GR-FE or the hybrid 2AR-FXE), keep the emission controls in place, and confirm availability, the delivered quote and freight to your LA ZIP code before ordering.
Before you buy a used Toyota Camry engine, ask your installer to reuse or replace the emission control parts the car came with, and keep the paperwork. Your smog technician may ask what was installed.

Does a used engine need a BAR Referee inspection in California?
According to BAR, a used engine of the same make, number of cylinders and engine family as the original, with the original emission controls reinstalled, is a replacement and does not need a Referee inspection. A different engine is an engine change and does. Check the current rules with BAR.
Which engine is in my 2012 Camry?
Most have the 2.5L 2AR-FE four-cylinder. V6 models have the 3.5L 2GR-FE, and the Camry Hybrid uses the 2AR-FXE. Your VIN confirms it.
What is the delivered price and timing to Los Angeles?
It depends on the engine, where it ships from, what is included and your delivery requirements. Ask for a written quote with shipping eligibility, any charges, and dispatch and transit estimates. Warranty options up to three years are offered; confirm the coverage for your engine.
