"Caster" settings cause the steering wheel to return to center and they are fixed by the suspension design on the Camry. What did the "suspension overhaul" include? That should have uncovered any items not moving freely or with excessive play. Did they check or replace the ball joints? Control arms? Tie rod ends? Struts or strut mounts? These would be the items to check.

You may want to visit local audio shops to try out the different combinations to see if it's worth the additional time and cost. As far as replacement radio/cassette/CD head units I'd go with Alpine. Also check www.crutchfield.com. Paul G. wrote:

That fastener came off so easily it was almost a disappointment. The crow foot wrench is used with a 3/8" drive ratchet handle or extension. The design of the...

Not to worry, they will come on if you simply follow the law. Every state of which I am aware requires the us of headlamps, from sunset to sunrise and other hours of reduced visibility. All marker lights come on with the headlamps. DRLs are designed to be on only when the conventional lighting system is not in use mike

- had brakes adjusted - how to undo?
- Posted on 02-13-2007 | 20 Comments
Yes, it's supposed to. Just make sure everything is clean and properly lubed so you won't have one side properly adjusted and the other side stuck open. One thing here: when the shoes are loose and you step on the brake pedal, the pedal will go to the floor or nearly so. If there are buildup in the less used portion of the master cylinder bore, the rubber piston cups can be damaged. So use the parking brake lever to adjust first, and then gently step on the pedal to test that it's firm. After...

Yeah, the idle air control valve sticks frequently. The valve doesn't need to be replaced. Many owners here shared their experience in cleaning the valve and then lubing it with TriFlow to extend the cleaning interval. Toyota redesigned the valve but that didn't resolve the problem. $700 to way out of line. If you must have a dealer do it, they should be able to clean the valve and charge you for 1 hour's labor. Call Toyota's 800 line and see if they still have the free IAC program available....

BTW, I wouldn't recommend Spectra Premium. I order one and it was a Koyo reboxed! I order another it was a poorly made SPI rad that I had to return because it looked like a toy. So it depends on the batch, you might get a good rad or not. I just trust either Proliance (used to be the Modine, TransPro, and ReadyRad lines) or Koyo much more. johngd...@hotmail.com wrote:

The interior of the door is designed with a plastic film to protect the internal parts and electrical connections from water, with a drain hole at the bottom of the door for the water to escape - but if...

Seems like of the two front calipers, one had those rubber caps made of some type of newer synthetic material similar to the new axle grease boots.

It is a non-interference engine, so the worst thing that would happen is that you loose engine power, but no damage to the engine will occur. The percentage of botched timing belt change jobs is amazing high (even when done by the dealer), so take that into consideration also.

If I remember correctly, one of the bulbs was partially blown (either the steady-on or blinking filament was burnt out). Check the bulbs. If I'm right, great. If I'm wrong, you've wasted 5 or 10 minutes.

- how do the rear drum brake adjusters work?
- Posted on 02-08-2007 | 2 Comments
"ADJUSTMENTS All models are equipped with self-adjusting rear drum brakes. Under normal conditions, adjustment of the rear brake shoes should not be necessary. However, if an initial adjustment is required insert the blade of a brake adjuster tool or a screw driver into the hole in the brake drum and turn the adjuster slowly. The tension is set correctly if the tire and wheel assembly will rotate approximately 3 times when spun with moderate force. Do not over adjust the brake shoes....

If it didn't used to do this then it's probably not normal. Your car may have electronic brake force distribution. Maybe a malfunction there? Head back to the dealer and have it documented at least, so if the problem comes up after warranty expires they'll be willing to repair it for free. On Feb 6, 9:26 pm, david01 <n...@000.com> wrote:

Idle Air Control (IAC) valve needs cleaning probably. Do a search on this. Daniel uses TriFlow afterwards with excellent results. On Feb 5, 11:48 am, tkhan...@gmail.com wrote:
