lol, nice thinking there. Of course the washing bit is unavoidable, hence there's no point advising it in the brochure.

The oil keeps wearing out after only 10k, yet Toyota refuses to replace it under warranty!

It appears the most common problem with mine judging from others is that it is not Rear Wheel Drive.

You saying I'm not good? Good day to you Sir!

True gentleman here. Very few out there who would take such verbal abuse and then wish you all the best.

Let me rephrase: My inability to find good paid mechanics (Paid being ones that issue an invoice; I don't count cases of coke/redbull/Monster/chips etc payment as it is more of a barter system). The TOCAU crew offer warranty as well but their work seems to be much better than the guys who I pay to do a job.

Lack of traction causing excessive tyre wear rate

Well actually, I stand corrected.

1. MOST common problem: Lack of power

2. Still a bitch: The paint job, It sucks *****! Clear coat peeling here, there, everywhere. They havn't resprayed the whole car, so some panels have a tinge of purple while some dont.

The biggest problem is me being lazy or complain everything

1. changing light bulb at the back? why lack of LED..

2. Stone chips

3. Some people leave some pins on the road and cause flat tyre

4. Aussie roads being bad after raining, althought it is getting better, they fix the pot holes pretty fast. From now on, my cars focus on the pot holes rather an the front car.. and I keep a reasonably distance from the front for me to check for pot holes

5. Too many safety cameras in fact they are not safety. The red lights are hard see especially you are surrounded by trucks due to their height. Also, I have to check for cameras before I cross the yellow lights, and if I accidentally pass the red light, I slam on the brakes and stop my car in the middle of the intersection and do a reverse, that will prevent the second red light camera taking photos

6 Following a car with no brake light at all

7 People cut into the queue. I don't normally give my way, have to teach them a lesson, but sometimes result in 3 cars in 2 lanes, and I back off sometimes because I don't want to crash my car

Pre-facelift has traction control? Didn't think it did.

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
