Excuse me? What about the 2008 or the 2010 models? Or do you mean
that the 2009 Camry has a timing CHAIN??

Change the chain at 150,000.

Do not believe anyone that claims that the chain will last the life of
the engine because what they really mean is that the engine will last
the the life of the chain. Chains _do_ break_. Chains _do_ stretch.
Hopefully the tensioners take up the slack but other vehicles have had
problems with broken or skipping chains.
