How long has the 3.5L DOHC V6 used in the Avalon and some Camrys been around? Does it hold up well? Develop leaks? Any expensive repairs in the first 100K?
TIA

*Some* Camrys? Like not really for sale yet 2007 Camrys? The Avalon started using the 2GR-FE in 2005, and so far I have noted no problems with it.
No problems noted yet. 100k miles have not ticked over on any I've seen.

It should be very reliable and last several hundred thousand miles IF all maintenance is performed at least on schedule. Additionally, I would change oil and filter about every 3k.
