Congratulations,
Wow 60k mileage, that’s nice.

Check engine: you need a scanning tools to determine what is wrong

Wiper: That is not the wiper itself, that is the windshield fluid. Wiper water in short. You need to locate the reservoir and top it up, the light will go off. ( it is always under the hood by front passenger side )

Maintain required: the car might be due for servicing, or if you have service it already you need to watch videos how to turn off the light.

I will be worried about the check engine light

Use a scan tool to check pull out error codes, the fourth light from the left is the tire pressure sensor, gauge all tires to the right psi and that light should disappear, if it doesn't then one or two of the sensors may not be detected by the ecu hence you may need to replace and reprogramme with a scan tool

use the appropriate oil types for your engine and transmission servicing, check your car manual for this, very important. Go online and download it, if your car manual isn't in the glove box of the car.
Don't use 20w50 oil weight to service your engine, stick with manufacturers recommendation, you can see the oil weight written on the oil cap when you open the bonnet of your car. No let kazeem(local mechanic) kazeem your car because you lack the requisite information

Congratulations bro

Run a scan on it

Your tyres are not gauge

Am guessing you were sold lies .. 60k miles ? 2012 car ? You don’t sound so knowledgeable about cars

That car would have done at least 180k miles, only way it would be 60k miles is if it’s was involved in a serious crash before being refurbished in Nigeria

Get your car scanned by a pro and do the needful then follow the other advices given especially the engine oil and transmission

You guys just be assuming nonsense. I got my 07' Camry at 93k miles, actual mileage. So what makes you think that OP's 2012 Camry can't come with 60k miles. Bros such toks vehicles dey, only thing is that they are more expensive, you should know that.

If you believe that’s the actual mileage of your car then I have a castle in the sky to sell to you , there’s no way a car of over 10yrs , will have 93k miles

Bro you dey do like sey you no know Car Talk? They're looking for an easy prey to pounce and shine on. You will never see them shouting "rolled back Odometer" in places like the thread below where Gazzuzz is currently advertising a 2009 Sienna with 93k cos they know he, his fellow BDCs as well as demeanours will return fire for fire

Well..it is, unless they've started lying at vehicle history reports. Anyway, i pre-ordered from the US, car was serviced there, next service tag of 98k miles is still on the windshield. I've had a bad experience one time with one toks I bought here, the mileage was massively rolled back, before I found out, it was late. So this time, I was careful. I was just trying to make a point to the person I quoted, you are not obligated to believe.

You can make your point without the insults ….

You didn’t state the year you got it, besides that’s 7k miles to 100k that was a rare good deal an outlier


Modified: oh I almost forgot odometers are also rolled back abroad just so you know it’s not being shipped from heaven

It seems your brain has been rolled back to toddler specs . .

Why ignore the issues op is seeking help on and choosing instead to rain or his parade?


Is it your car

Is it your money he used to buy it

Are you the former owner of the car to speak with so much assurance that its odo was rolled back?

There are even 1957 model vehicles with less than 100k miles in existence today...Why then does it seem like sorcery for a 2012 car to have 60k miles? ...abi you think say na everybody dey do uber like you or travel to your village for burial on a weekly basis?


Bros, why must you be so stupid?
