Re: Camry FAQs and Information

ECT

Q: What does the button on my console labeled "ECT" do?

A: ECT is an abreviation for "Electronically Controlled Transmission". The button has two positions, "POWER" and "NORMAL". When switched to the "POWER" position, the ECM shifts the transmission at higher engine rpm in every gear. It also affects the function of the torque converter lock-up mechanism.

For further discussion see the following thread:

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...8&page=1&pp=15

With regard to the stiffness of the upshifts, in all of the A140, and A54X transmissions, as the throttle angle rises, more pressure is built up. This does not change the maximum pressure exerted during the shift, or while in gear. Thus the shift stiffness is unchanged in either ECT mode.

(Thanks to Toysrme for adding the above clarification on shift stiffness.)

OVERDRIVE

Q: What is the function of the overdrive? Is it a separate unit or actually part of my transmission? What happens when I push the button on the side of my shifter and light the "O/D OFF" indicator?

A: The overdrive is the highest (lowest numerically) gear in your transmission, by definition higher geared than 1:1 or direct drive - and it is integral with your transmission. When you push the button on the shifter and light the "O/D OFF" indicator, you prevent your transmission from engaging the O/D gear and it stays in the next highest gear.

Preventing OD from engaging is useful when you are in stop and go traffic and never get above 30 mph for any length of time. Then, the only time you engage the O/D gear is when you let off the accelerator - causing the transmission to make an unnecessary upshift when you are slowing down. It is also useful to disengage the O/D when you are in hilly country or towing and find your transmission is not able to stay in the high gear. It is better to maintain the next highest gear by turning off the O/D than to have the transmission searching for the correct gear.

Re: Camry FAQs and Information

CRUISE CONTROL MALFUNCTION

Q: I just had my starter replaced in my '95 Camry and now I've found that the cruise control doesn't work. The light just flashes and the car doesn't hold cruising speed. Anyone have any idea what I should do?

A: Check the connection near the front of the cruise control actuator. Make sure it is tight and clipped together. The cruise control actuator is next to the battery. The actuator connector is near the radiator. It is common for mechanics to overlook reconnecting this actuator after work has been done on the engine.

ENGINE VIBRATION IN 4-CYLINDER

Q: When my 2.2L Camry is idling and the transmission is in Drive, the steering wheel vibrates pretty strong. However, there is no vibration when the transmission is in Neutral or Park. Is this a serious problem?

A: As long as the vibration is only moderate, this is normal for a transverse mounted 4-cylinder Camry. The engine pulses and moves forward and back, moving the steering wheel slightly with each cylinder firing. If the vibration is very strong, it is likely that you have a loose or defective motor mount.

BRAKE PROBLEM INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY

Q: My brake warning light on my dash comes on when I go around corners or stop suddenly. Is this normal? Will it be expensive to fix?

A: It is likely that the warning light is coming on because your brake fluid level in your master cylinder reservoir is getting too low. There is a level indicator in the reservoir and it detects the change in fluid level when the fluid shifts because of braking or cornering. Fill the reservoir and the problem should go away.

MANY WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AT THE SAME TIME

Q: Almost a month ago I noticed the the 3 warning lights would come on and off intermitently, but lately they are mostly on. I haven't noticed any change in the driving, but thought it might be worth checking. Any ideas of what maybe the cause?

A: When the instrument panel warning lights get flakey like you describe, almost always it's the alternator.

Re: Camry FAQs and Information

NOISY FRONT SUSPENSION OVER BUMPS

Q: I bought a used 1997 Camry XLE with 60,000 miles about 2 years ago. Most times when I go over a speed bump or pothole, there is a distinct rattle or clunk in the right front suspension. There is no noise in the left front. One mechanic said it was a worn bushing and the part cost over $200 and $150 labor to replace. Other than the noise, the suspension seems OK. Should I have the bushing replaced or just go for 2 new struts? Or is there an less expensive alternative?

A: What the mechanic meant by front bushing may be the suspension suport or the strut mount bearing (see below).



If either of these items are damaged, your strut may no longer be held properly by the strut mount. If this is the case, you will definitely want to replace these parts as one of the things that can happen is that the spring may slide off the strut when hitting a bump. This will cause some pretty severe problems. The strut mount is pretty expensive...but it is definetely not worth it to wait.

Here are the TSBs for 1997 xle v6:

TSB # PG027-02 for Steering/Suspension - Ball Joint Inspection

TSB # ST008-01 for Front Suspension - Squeaking

TSB # SU001-00 for Suspension - Front Support Change Reduces Noise (a redesigned suspension support at the top of the strut tower)

TSB # SU003-98 for Suspension - Groans From Front Driving Over Bumps (involves replacing the "bump" rubber on the strut shaft with a new piece featuring six additional ribs)

TSB #SU00796 for Suspension - Rattle/Popping Noise From Front

Q: What years of Camrys are susceptable to getting this noise from the defective strut towers?

A: All Camrys '97 - '00

Q: Are the strut mounts easy to replace? having no experience w/ macpherson struts, my worst fear is unbolting the top off the strut mount and my last sight is seeing a spring launching out like a minuteman missile

A: You have to remove the strut from the car as an assembly, then use a spring compressor.

Q: Are the front spring bumpers easy to replace? actually, i have no idea what this is. i'm assuming its probably some type of polyurethane or rubber bumper/bushing between the strut tower and the strut mount. please correct me if i'm wrong here.

A: Spring Bumper- you will see it under the Upper strut mount/Upper Spring seat at the top of the strut shaft. Yes, they are easy to replace if you have a spring compressor to disassemble the strut.

Q: Do i need any special tools? SST from Toyota?

A: No. Just a spring compressor if you replace the shock.

After changing these parts out, do i need to do a 2 wheel or 4 wheel alignment?

A: No. Replacing the strut mounts does not change the steering or suspension geometry.

Cautions:

1) Do not remove the center nut (on the upper strut mount) while you have the strut assembly removed from the car without the spring compressor installed properly on the spring (tension off the center nut).

2) If the Car has ABS Brakes be very careful with the ABS Sensor/ Wire ($$Expensive). When the strut is removed don't let the lower control arm hang by the ABS wire!

Struts still in good shape? Now would be the time to change them!

HINTS FOR THE WISE
OK, I had the famous '97-99 clonking problem. After changing the sway bar links and bushings it was still there and I opted to change the strut mount.

This is actually not hard at all, a little sweat and time is all it takes if you are aware of the following, which I learned:

First lesson: The strut to control arm bolts are 22mm.

Of course I had 17,18,19,20,21,23,24,25 mm but no 22mm. Now I have. Set me back 1/2 hour.

Second lesson: The left and right side are different.

It dos not say on the strut mount box (from KYB) nor in the Haynes (I think). It is not stamped on the new mounts. BUT it is stamped on the old ones. This is done so that when you throw out the old ones you realized that there is a difference. And have to do it over again, due to Murphys law. (You had 50% chance of getting it right, but you will get it wrong).

I had the left strut out while I had put the left mount in the right side! So I thought: "Just use the old left mount, but change the bearing as these are the ones always wearing out on other cars, then I can just change the right mount back mount". This brings me to lesson #3:

Thrid Lesson: It is the strut mount that is worn, not the bearing.

After finishing up, I drove to the Diner. And the left side with the old mount/new bearing was still making noise. !$#@. Back on the Jack Stand, changing the strut mount and putting it back together.

But now everything is quiet. That is, now I can hear my rear mounts clonking..........

All in all, with some help from my father in law compressing the springs (this helps) it took me from 10:30AM to 5PM, including lunch and a trip for the right socket.

Hope this will help someone not do the same mistakes I did and get the job done faster.

-----------------------

PS Use a torque wrench 'cause it is surprising how tight some of the nuts have to be tightened and others not.

PPS I got my strut mounts (KYB OEM) at autopartswarehouse.com. ~$65 each + two day shipping.. Much cheaper than local, non-oem.

PPS My struts are original ('97) and in fine shape, rear ones just changed 'cause they were out.

Thanks joopa

Re: Camry FAQs and Information

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IN '94 CAMRY

Q: My 94 Camry check engine light has just come on recently. I've never seen it on until now and I don't know why. The car has 148k miles on it, what could be the problem? I have tried checking the code myself using the paperclip method that I found on this site, but could not get anything out of it. The light just stays on and does not blink once. How can I check the code? Is there a reset button or anything I can do? Any help is appreciated. TIA.

A: Your car maybe OBDII compliant which means you need a code reader. Check on the label attached to the underside of your hood. See if it says OBDII certified.

http://www.iequus.com/assets/manuals/3100E.pdf

OBD Codes:
http://autorepair.about.com/od/obdco...gine_Codes.htm

Q: Can I purchase a reader at any autoshop? How much are they?

A: You need an adapter that is specific for Toyota. Most readers will work with the appropriate adapter. I have had trouble finding the right adapter at my local stores. I think online is the best place to buy one.

I think prices are $100 on up. One that monitors engine functions is particularly useful - feeds data into computer like notebook or hand-held pc.

If you live near an Autozone store, they will check it for free.

Q: I went to a Autozone store and they said that they could only do 96 and up. Is that true?

A: 1996 and later cars have to be OBDII compliant. Toyota made their 1994 and 1995 V6 Camrys OBDII compliant. If your car is, then point it out to him and they should check it. Check your emissions sticker under the hood. It will tell you if your car is OBDII compliant or not.

P0100
Mass or volume sensor or circuit

Possible Problems
MAF may be disconnected, or a wiring connection may be bad. MAF sensor may be faulty.

Reset the code and see if it comes back.
Verify that the Mass Air Flow Sensor wiring is connected properly and that there are no broken /frayed wires.
Unplug and reconnect the MAF wiring harness
Check the voltage of the MAF sensor (refer to a repair manual for vehicle specific information)
Replace the MAF sensor

P0101
Mass or volume Circuit Range/Performance Problem

Possible Problems
Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor or circuit. The PCM detects that the actual MAF sensor frequency signal is not within a predetermined range of the calculated MAF value for more than 4.0 seconds.

Reset the code and see if it comes back
Inspect for the following conditions:
An incorrectly routed harness--Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor in order to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:
- The secondary ignition wires or coils
- Any solenoids
- Any relays
- Any motors
A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore may cause this DTC to set at idle or during deceleration. Inspect for any vacuum leaks downstream of the MAF sensor.
A wide open throttle (WOT) acceleration from a stop should cause the MAF sensor g/s display on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 6-12 g/s at idle to 230 g/s or more at the time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used in order to calculate the predicted MAF value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON.
When the engine is running the MAP sensor value is continually updated near WOT. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated MAF value to be inaccurate. The value shown for the MAP sensor display varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON and the engine OFF, 103 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000 feet) of altitude.
A high resistance on the ground circuit of the MAP sensor can cause this DTC to set.
Any loss of vacuum to the MAP sensor can cause this DTC to set.

P0102
Mass or volume Circuit Low Input
Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor or circuit. MAF circuit had lower than expected voltage (air flow).

Possible Problems
The MAF may be disconnected, or a wiring connection may be bad
The MAF may be dirty or otherwise contaminated (if you use an oiled air filter such as a K&N air filter, some of the oil may have made it's way onto the MAF sensor).
The MAF sensor may be faulty
The vehicle computer may be faulty (very rare)

reset the code and see if it comes back.
Verify that the Mass Air Flow Sensor wiring is connected properly and that there are no broken / frayed wires.
Inspect for any air leaks near the MAF sensor.
Take the MAF out and clean it using a spray cleaner such as brake cleaner or electrical contact cleaner. Be gentle with the sensor.
Check the voltage of the MAF sensor (refer to a repair manual for vehicle specific information)
Replace the MAF sensor.

P0103
Mass or Volume Circuit High Input.

Possible Problems
Mass Air Flow High (MAF) sensor or circuit. MAF circuit had higher than expected voltage (air flow).

The MAF may be disconnected, or a wiring connection may be bad
The MAF sensor may be damaged
The vehicle computer may be faulty (very rare)
reset the code and see if it comes back.
Verify that the Mass Air Flow Sensor wiring is connected properly and that there are no broken / frayed wires.
Inspect for any air leaks near the MAF sensor.
Take the MAF out and clean it using a spray cleaner such as brake cleaner or electrical contact cleaner. Be gentle with the sensor.
Check the voltage of the MAF sensor (refer to a repair manual for vehicle specific information)
Replace the MAF sensor.

P0104
Mass or Volume Circuit Intermittent

Possible Problems
Mass Air Flow High (MAF) sensor or circuit. MAF is producing incorrect air flow readings.

The mass air flow (MAF) circuit is incomplete (broken/frayed wire, etc.)
There is an air leak in the intake system

Reset the code and see if it comes back.
Verify that the Mass Air Flow Sensor wiring is connected properly and that there are no broken / frayed wires.
Inspect for any air leaks near the MAF sensor.
Check the voltage of the MAF sensor (refer to a repair manual for vehicle specific information)
Replace the MAF sensor.

P0105
The description of the expected voltages for the MAP sensor output (backprobing Terminal 2) in the Haynes manual is incorrect. The voltages listed are not the expected voltages, they are the voltage drops expected from the reference voltage.

With the MAP connector attached and the ignition on and the vacuum line disconnected, measure the reference voltage by backprobing terminals 2 and 1. Measure the voltages at these same connectors while applying different vacuums at the port. If your reference voltage without vacuum is 3 volts (for example), then you should see the following voltages at these vacuums:

3.94 in Hg 2.5-2.7 V [3.0 V (reference voltage) minus 0.5-0.3 V]
7.87 in Hg 2.1-2.3 V (3.0 minus 0.9-0.7 V)
11.81 in Hg 1.7-1.9 V (3.0 minus 1.3-1.1 V)
15.75 in Hg 1.3-1.5 V (3.0 minus 1.7-1.5 V)
19.69 in Hg 0.9-1.1 V (3.0 minus 2.1-1.9 V)

Although your MAP may not exactly match what is listed above, the trend should be the same. I don't think there is anything magical about these absolute numbers, it is having a smooth trend that is important. There is bound to be some variation.

P0123
Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch A Circuit High Input

Possible Problems
Computer has detected that the TPS (throttle position sensor) is reporting too high a voltage.
Symptoms may include: Rough idle, High idle, Surging, or other symptoms may also be present

TPS not mounted securely
TPS circuit short to ground or another wire
Faulty TPS
Damaged computer (PCM)

If there are no symptoms, the simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back.
If engine is stumbling or hesitating, carefully inspect all wiring and connectors that lead to the TPS. More than likely the problem is with the TPS wiring.
Check the voltage at the TPS (refer to a service manual for your vehicle for this specific information). If the voltage spikes or is too high (over 4.65 volts with key on, engine off), then that is indicative of a problem.
Carefully trace each wire from the TPS wiring harness to check for breaks, rubbing against other components, etc.

TSB for 5S-FE
EG013-02 '98 and '99 Camry and Solara

"Under certain driving conditions, some 1998 - 1999 model year Camry and Solara vehicles may exhibit a M.I.L. "ON" with DTCs P0440, P0441 and P0446 stored due to an inoperative Vapor Pressure Sensor 3 way Vacuum Switching Valve (VSV). An improved Vapor Pressure Sensor VSV has been developed to correct this condition."

TSB for 5S-FE 1998
EG003-98
Repair Procedure
P0441 and/or P0446
A. Diagnostics for PO441:
1. Remove and replace Vacuum Hoses between EVAP VSV and Charcoal Canister.
2. If there is a metal vapor pipe between EVAP VSV and Charcoal Canister, clean inside of vaporpipe
3. Replace EVAP VSV and Charcoal Canister assembly with new parts.

B. Diagnostics for P0446:

1. Inspect vacuum hoses and pipes between EVAP (Purge) VSV and Charcoal Canister for leaks.
2. Replace Vapor Pressure VSV and Canister.
NOTE :When performing diagnostics for an occurrence of a MIL "ON" condition, Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0441 may be result of debris in Evaporative Emission Control System. This may cause blockage of a vapor line, or a stuck VSV, as described in troubleshooting area of Repair Manual.

Possible Problems
Open or short in VSV circuit for vapor pressure sensor
VSV for vapor pressure sensor
Open or short in vapor pressure sensor circuit
Vapor pressure sensor
Open or short in VSV circuit for EVAP
VSV for EVAP
Vacuum hose cracks, hole, blocked, damaged or disconnected
Charcoal canister cracks, hole, or damaged

(P0446 is not normally associated with a loose or non-sealing gas cap. A loose or non-sealing gas cap triggers P0440 - see below diagrams)

1. Check the VSV connector for EVAP, VSV connector for vapor pressure sensor and vapor pressure sensor connector for looseness and disconnection

2. Check the vacuum hose between intake manifold and VSV for EVAP, VSV for EVAP and charcoal canister, charcoal canister and VSV for vapor pressure sensor, and VSV for vapor pressure sensor and vapor pressure sensor. Check these hoses for correct connection, looseness, cracks, holes, damage, and blockage.

3. Check voltage between terminals VC and E2 of ECM connector (4.5-5.5 V). (replace ECM if faulty)

4. Check voltages between terminals PTNK and E2 of ECM connector while applying vacuum to vapor pressure sensor (2.9-3.7 V).

If faulty, check for open and short in harness and connector between vapor pressure sensor and ECM. If ok at this point, replace vapor pressure sensor.

If voltage above is ok, Check VSV for EVAP. When ECM terminal EVP is grounded (ignition "ON"), Air should flow in pipe E (inboard on tube) on VSV and out F (outboard on tube) on VSV (Don't use high pressure air for this test). When EVP is not grounded, air does not flow in E and out F.

5. Check operation of VSV for EVAP. Remove VSV from engine. Check that there is continuity between the two terminals (30-34 ohms). If there is no continuity, replace VSV for EVAP.

Check that there is no continuity between either terminal and body. If there is continuity, replace VSV for EVAP.

Check that air does not flow from inner port (E) to outboard port (F).

Check that air flows from port E to F when you apply battery voltage across terminals. If no air flows, replace VSV for EVAP.

6. Check the vacuum hose between intake manifold and VSV for EVAP, and VSV for EVAP and charcoal canister. Check as above.

7. Check for open or short in harness and connector between EFI main-relay and VSV for EVAP and ECM. If faulty, repair or replace harness or connector. If ok, check and replace ECM.

8. Check VSV for vapor pressure sensor. When ECM terminal TPC is grounded (ignition "ON"), Air should flow in pipe E (inboard on tube) on VSV and out F (outboard on tube) on VSV. When TPC is not grounded, air flows out G (outside of connector).

If ok, check and replace charcoal canister.

If not functioning correctly, check function of VSV for vapor pressure sensor. Remove from engine.
Check that there is continuity between the terminals (33-39 ohms). Replace the VSV if there is no continuity.

Check that air flows from port E (inboard in tube) to port G (side of connector).

Check that air flows from port E to port F (outboard in tube) when battery voltage is applied across terminals. Replace VSV if function is incorrect.

9. If good, Check the vacuum hose between charcoal canister and VSV for vapor pressure sensor, and vapor pressure sensor and VSV for vapor pressure sensor - check as above.

11. Check for open and short in harness and connector between EFI main replay and VSV for vapor pressure sensor and ECM.

To clarify the scope of the P0440, P0441 and P0446 DTCs, here are reproductions of part of the Diagnostics section of a 2000 Toyota Repair Manual.

Note that the P0440 reflects uncharacteristic pressures in the components within the dotted line only. The same goes for the diagram of the components within the dotted line for the P0441 and P0446 DTCs.

Only the P0440 code will show a problem with pressure (or lack of pressure) within the fuel tank. The fuel tank cap is only cited as a potential source of the DTC in P0440, not in P0441/P0446.

Note that the potential problems are listed with the most probable culprit on the top of the list.






P0770 Shift Solenoid E Malfunction

Solenoid E (SL) is the torque converter lock-up solenoid. If the torque converter is a little slow locking up, it will set this code. May only be a one-time thing owing to a small particle of something getting jammed in the solenoid. The code may disappear by itself.

If it doesn't right away, check out the color of your tranny fluid. If it is pretty much red or brown and smells ok, then flush the tranny and see if that gets rid of the code. If not, pull out some fluid and add a bottle of Seafoam Trans Tune and run it for 1 or 2k miles. Then flush the transmission again. Check if the code is gone.

If this problem persists, I've been told you'll have to replace the E-solenoid.

There is a Service Bulleting (EG006-00) issued for '00 Siennas on this problem. They get a new torque converter to fix the problem permanently.

The following discussion was submitted by csaxon:

The ECM uses signals from throttle position sensor, airflow meter and crankshaft position sensor to monitor engagement of Torque Converter Clutch (TCC).

The ECM compares engagement condition of TCC with lock-up schedule in memory to detect MECHANICAL trouble of lock-up solenoid, valve body and torque converter. A P0700 trouble code is set when TCC lock-up does not occur during appropriate speed, or lock-up does not release at appropriate speed.

Possible causes are:
* Solenoid is stuck open or closed.
* Valve body clogged or valve stuck.
* TCC malfunction.

There are simple electrical tests to check the solenoid and plunger but the transmission pan must be removed to gain access.

As Brian suggests, if you haven't had your system flushed or changed in awhile it may help but I'm not sure that's cheaper than actually removing the pan and checking the solenoid.

The Toyota service tech can check the system without pan removal with his analyzer.


P0793 "Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor A"
Thanks to hk rogers for the following information:

Recently had a repair on a 2009 Toyota Matrix 2.4L with a CEL P0793 "Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor A" code that I had a lot of difficulty finding good information on. Thought I'd post the repair info here to help out others in the future.

1. I pulled the codes at Autozone and they told me I needed a Transmission Speed Sensor (Part #SU40465) however they were unsure the location and that there were 2 sensors and no way to tell which is bad.

2. Took code to Toyota Dealership and they tried to sell me an ABS Wheel Speed Sensor for $250.

3. After digging through a variety of online resources I suspected Autozone was correct, ordered the part and set out to find the sensor.

4. On the 2.4L Matrix both sensors are located beneath the Air Filter box. Disconnect the intake hoses, pull off the box, loosen the three bolts holding on the box and voila you have access. The "A" Sensor is located directly beneath the air box in a vertical position. The other Sensor ("B" I assume) is a little further forward and angled toward the back of the battery. I would imagine the battery would have to be removed for ease of access.

5. 1 12mm Bolt and a rather sticky wiring harness later and you're in business.



P1780 PNP Switch Malfunction

Easiest solution: It is common on Camrys to have problems with the loom of wires inside the trunk, attached to the driver's side trunk hinge. That loom is subjected to a lot of flexing, each time the trunk opens and closes. Eventually some of the wires inside that loom fray and break. Open that loom of wires and look for frayed or broken wires. Repair what you find. For pics see here.
Thanks to Mike Gerber

Re: Camry FAQs and Information

HALF-SHAFT REPLACEMENT

Thanks Erndog1396

Q: I have a torn CV boot. What is the best way to fix it?

A: Buy a remanufactured axle. Remove the large CV boot clamp just to the outside of the innermost bearing. Pull the inner joint apart, and when you get the new axle, do the same thing, and install the new half shaft and replace the clamp. This is the easiest way to do it, and you will still replace all the wearable parts of the axle.


ASM used the following alternative method: "...The secret is to use a vary long brass punch, 24". Hold it against the raceway bearing and use a sludge hammer to hammer it out.

This will require 2 people, as one must hold the punch and the other one work the hammer. What I also did was use A LOT of WD-40 (penetrating oil is better - Brian), and let it soak over night.

When work the hammer, hit it hard, don't be shy. As most of replacement CV shaft came with new raceway bearing anyway."


It is cheaper and less time consuming to replace the entire half-shaft with a rebuilt one than to dissassemble the half-shaft and CV joint, rebuild the contaminated CV joint, and then reassemble and install the half-shaft.

COMMENTS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON ABOVE RECOMMENDATIONS

What Brand of Air Filter Performs Best?
Here is a study of a number of brands of air filters:
http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/airfilter/airtest1.htm
http://home.usadatanet.net/~jbplock/ISO5011/SPICER.htm

Power Steering Fluid Change
Here is a procedure from toyotanation with pics:
http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/t19334.html

Spark Plug Change
http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=419457

Use only Toyota-recommended spark plugs.

Since the heads on both the above engines are aluminum, you must coat the spark plug threads with a small amount of anti-seize compound before you install them.

Start threading the spark plugs by using a rubber hose pushed over the insulator of the spark plug so that you don't accidentally damage the threads in the head. If one doesn't go in easily, back it out and try again. Don't force them. Cross-threading the spark plug holes will eventually cost you money.

Oil Weight Recommendation
Use 5W-30 oil under all conditions unless you live in Arizona, Southern Texas, Fargo, etc. There is a significant benefit to getting the oil flowing immediately after start-up.

Replacing Engine Coolant.
Make sure you get all the air out of the system before you cap the radiator. Run the engine at idle with the radiator cap off and add coolant as necessary to keep the radiator full of coolant. Once the engine reaches operating temperature and the coolant begins to overflow, replace the radiator cap and fill the coolant reservoir to the hot line. Check the coolant level in the reservoir after the next time you drive it and it has had a chance to cool down.

Valve Clearance Adjustment
In general, you don't have to adjust the valve clearances in these engines unless you have modified the valve train in some way. Leave well-enough alone unless you have a specific need.

Drive Shaft Boots Preventive Maintenance
Spray them with silicone lubricant (WD-40 has also been recommended to me) every time you are under the car for an oil change. This will prevent them from drying out and they will last forever. Cracked and leaking boots are common after 6-8 years without some treatment and replacing the half-shafts because of this is expensive.

Replacing Transmission Fluid
It is preferable to flush the transmission and replace all the fluid this way, rather than just draining the small amount of fluid in the pan. The vast majority of the transmission fluid is trapped in the torque converter and the valve body and is not changed by draining the pan only. I have been told that it is unnecessary to change the filter in the transmission. It is wire mesh and only meant to keep chunks of stuff out of the valve body.

If your serious about transmission maintenance, try this link for parts and transmission repair manuals:

http://www.drivetrain.com/autotransoverhaulkits.html

General Maintenance
Always use a torque wrench to tighten fasteners to the recommended torque value. A pair of torque wrenches (one large and one small) are indespensible for auto maintenance, particularly when you have an aluminum engine/head. Two torque wrenches I recommend (or their equivalent) are:

http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/produ...&vertical=TOOL
http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/produ...id=00944593000

These are micrometer-style torque wrenches. You dial in the required torque and then the wrench clicks strongly when you exert the force necessary to tighten the bolt. To keep their accuracy, store them with the torque setting on a very low value. You can pay alot more for better wrenches, but these are more than adequate. Evenness of torque around a bolt pattern is more important that the actual torque value of the pattern.

Don't extend the lever arm of a torque wrench with a crow's foot or other device. If you make the socket end of the torque wrench longer, you increase the torque applied to the bolt. If you have to use a lengthening adapter, use it at a 90 degree angle to the torque wrench shaft.

Also, always make sure you are tightening a bolt or nut with lubricated threads (oil for steel hole, antiseize compound for aluminum hole). Bolts always have to go into clean holes. Run a flat-bottom tap into all holes that won't accept a bolt hand-tight to the bottom. Follow tightening sequences when provided - tighten gradually in three steps 1/3, 2/3, then recommended torque over entire bolt pattern.

Tighten bolts in a bolt pattern only loosely until all the bolts have been inserted and are threaded into the holes. If you tighten some down prematurely, it will be very difficult or impossible to insert all the bolts and you will have to loosen the tight bolts anyway.

Re: Camry FAQs and Information

KNOCKING, THUMPING, OR CREAKING SOUND IN REAR/FRONT WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS

Q: I have been dealing with this weird noise for some time. I can hear the noise sounds like two pieces of heavy metal hitting each other. It sounds from the right rear area. It happens more often when speed is low say 30 mph on rough road. On highway, it does not happen as often. Anyone know what it can be?

A: First thing to check is your sway bar (stabilizer bar) bushings. What causes the bushings to wear is when water and salt (or just water) gets into the bushing, it corrodes the surface of the sway bar and the surface becomes rough. This wears away the bushing. To get a long-term fix, you should polish the sway bar with a strip of emory cloth where the bushing rubs and then replace the bushing with a new one. Then the sway bar is smooth and the fix will last longer.

If there is nothing loose (including the spare tire and jack) in the trunk, then the sway bar bushings are the first thing to check/replace. They are cheap to buy from Toyota ($10/pair) and easy to replace - 30 min at most. When I have bought bushings from Toyota, they even gave me a strip of emory cloth to polish the bar with.

Here's a thread on the subject:

Here are the components:

Re: Camry FAQs and Information

CAR RUNS POORLY AT STOP LIGHT AND WANTS TO DIE

Q: My car starts good, runs ok going down the highway, but at a light it runs like poo-poo and wants to cut out. Any suggestions?

A: I'll bet your EGR valve is clogged. To check: Get a common hammer, locate the EGR, make it run bad, rap the EGR with the hammer (don't break it). You should be able to get the valve to unstick and it will idle like magic! Clean out the EGR with a coat hanger and carb cleaner or replace.

Re: Camry FAQs and Information

FUEL FILTER LOCATION AND REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR '92 - '96 CAMRY

Q: Does anyone know where the fuel filter is located on a 4 cyl 95 Camry? Is it easy to change? Thanks!

A: It is bolted to the wheel well behind the air filter housing. It is easy to change if you have small hands.

Before you disconnect any fuel lines, go under the rear seat - access the top of the gas tank, and disconnect the fuel pump electrical connection. Start the engine and let it idle until it dies, then shut off the ignition switch. Disconnect the negative battery terminal. Then follow the diagram below.

The fuel filter is removed physically by unbolting from the fender.

Use a tubing wrench (or crows foot) instead of either an open-end wrench or adjustable jaw wrench to remove tubing connections. Use penetrating oil on the fitting first to help remove it. They are soft metal and easily rounded off if you are not careful. Instead of a crows foot, a box-end wrench with a slot cut out of one end will work in a pinch.

Be careful not to twist the tubing when tightening or loosening a tubing fitting.

Re: Camry FAQs and Information

REBUILDING YOUR OWN ALTERNATOR

Q: My brake and charge lights come on at the same time when the engine is running. What does that mean?

A: If the brake and charge lights come on during revving of the engine then it's a sign that the carbon alternator brushes require replacing as this is the mileage for them to wear out. In alternators the brushes wear out on average every 140-170 000 miles where on the dashboard the brake & charge light both come on at the same time. About half of the auto electric shops in your local yellow pages sell carbon alternator brushes and copper solenoid starter contacts for about $5/pair.Another way to verify that the alternator is not charging is while the engine is running bring a metal screwdriver or any metal object near the alternator and if the alternator is working properly then it should act like a magnet and grab the screwdriver.

For carbon brushes R&R:
