Had freon refilled on my 89 camry at the shop. A/C worked fine for a day. The next day it was back to not working again. Seems like a leak some where in the line. Any hints on locating the leak?

My wife's 1999 Camry LE V6 died in the parking lot...she drove in just fine but upon returning from the store, the vehicle would not start. Other electrical devices worked OK, but nothing from the starter. The car was towed to the Toyota dealership, where they diagnosed a weak battery and dead starter relay. They claim this in not uncommon... a dying battery will cause the relay to fail. Has anyone else experienced this? I don't understand how this could happen, but this dealership has...

RE: 2000 Camry V6 automatic. The location of the transaxle differential drain plug is quite obvious.But I'll be darned if I can find the fill plug.Appropriate Toyota and Chilton manuals have been of no help.Can anyone shed some light on this Toyota mystery. Thanks. Jerry

Hello, Couple of weeks ago I bought a 2003 Camry with 2.4 engine. I have always used Fram for my oil filters. Are there any better oil filters than Fram for Toyotas? TIA.

I'm borrowing my daughters 1990 Corolla sedan while my 97 Camry is in the shop. I want to try and touch up some of the corrosion for her whiloe I have the car. All the usual places, the corners of the doors are the worst. If I open the door I can see the inner and outer sheet metal coming apart. Not totaly loose, still fairly rigid but not for long at the rate its rusting. Also small areas rusting through at the corners of the wheel wells. Car has 130,000 miles and is going strong. If I can at...

Hi All, My 1993 V6 Camry SE flunked emissions. It was the HC at idle. The HC at idle has been climbing over the last 3 years, from 54, to 101, to 135 now. That's just 5, over the state limit. The 2500 RPM readings on HC have been climbing over the same period: 13, 18, 25.

I cant figure this one out. Mainly after engine reaches normal opperating temp, you pull up to a stop engine idles briefly then start a hard miss. shift to nutural idle smooths out. Heres a list of what has been done new plugs new wires new cap new rotor timing belt cleaned throddle body

as i found later the oil dipstick plastic top "melted" and stuck to the housing. with much twisting and pulling the damn thing finally came off. the question is now- does the "melted" dipstick still measure oil capacity accurately? i have never experienced this before. does any aftermarket co make a reliable one-i don't feel like getting ripped by toyota. thanks. this was the wrong week to give up smack.

You probably hear a secondary fan come on. As long as the car isn't overheating it should be ok. Watch the engine temp gauge if the car has one. "vk" <vktechmails@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:c3e7fb04.0307080535.52f7faaa@posting.google.com...

I also need to clean my IAC valve. where would that fall in place?

check the yellow pages. there are usually places the sell used ones. the same thing happened to me on my 97 corolla. cost me 10 bucks. be sure and take the car with you. most of the time they will have one.

If your tires wear evenly a 4 wheel alignment doesn't seem neccesary to me. I normally drive about 70,000 km, which is about 44,000 km with the michelins on my '98 4-cyl. I drove 240,000 km (or 150,000 miles) up to now, without any special repair. Just the normal maintenance. Very satisfied with this car. Zwerius Kriegsman Holland

Hi all, My Camry is a 97 XLE, with a v6. Almost 100K miles now. You might have read my thread from before: Strange, faint noise in Camry I had the car checked out. One garage and the dealer said it was nothing to worry about. Probably just the tires. Wheel bearings were checked. They were fine.

if you have a CAA or AAA membership than you could just wait till the timing belt busts and have it towed then. that is, if you don't mind being inconvenienced like that. "Eric F" <eric_fi@ pacbell.net> wrote in message news:3YaJa.2317$qX2.1019@newssvr16.news.prodigy.com...

Hi I recently had water draining into the driver's side carpets during rains. The dealer diagnosed it as AC Drain pipe clog and charged me about $200 for the work. I have hardly used the AC in the past 6-7 months (winter) and I noticed this problem only when it rained. Does water drain thru the AC Drain pipe even if the AC is not used? How is it related to rains?

This is a two part question. I have a '98 Camry quickly coming on 90K. I was just wondering what others have done for their 90K service, and what's recommended? Additionally, what experience have other folks had with their Camry's above 100K? My vehilce seems to run soundly, but there are a number of little things that are bugging me (i.e. cover fell off of driver's side vanity mirror, arm rest came unhinged, right rear shoulder belt is sprung and won't retract). A salesman told me about a...
