I went for a drive last night over springbrook, got nearly to the top and noticed my camry was loud..... i pulled over checked up the hood and then along the exhuast under the car, there are no abnormalities at all.... and the noise is coming out the back of the exhaust where it should hahaha... i swear this car has a mind of it own.... sometimes is lower than usual sometimes it sits like a 4by..... and iv been wanting and exaust system and now it done it for me ahhahaha i like to call it HERBIE cos everyday the car feels different...

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

While the car is idling, cover up the exhaust pipe with your foot (wearing a thong or something), or if everything is cold you can use your palm, then listen for any obvious leaks.

I would more likely say something inside your muffler has in that case.

Not really worth it if you don't get a header-back system (or fix up the y-pipe, the biggest restriction). You won't get much power and a fair bit of drone and rubbish noise.

Taking a stab in the dark here and forgetting the exhaust for a second, but hopefully its not an engine knock? If as you say its getting louder, it may indicate that somethings about to pop. Probably worth getting it looked over (and check your oil too)

Hard to say without hearing it really, maybe you could post up a vid?

i'll try gettin a video up mate... it only have a service last monday (29/04/13) and the mechanic said its in perfect order ( i trust this bloke as my family has delt with him for about 4 years now and he is one of dads good mates).... it is an odd noise but defintly coming fromt he exhaust, if it was an engine knock or another noise i would be able to hear it in the engine bay area... the noise only comes out the back ive checked everywhere over the can and the aint no other noises :S

      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.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
