Where is the remote receiver on a 1998 Camry
Hi legends, I recently bought Camry 1999, and I'm trying to repair everything I can. Car came with one fob (famous unbreakable thingy, with button cover gone and flat battery of course). I have managed it to open and I choose the way to put the battery out of the pins - done, without breaking it. I bought CR2032 and put it into a place. Nothing, nothing happens while programming mode activated. Battery is in contact and button seems to be working fine (you can hear clicking). Then I simply gave up and tried to looking for new Integration Relay... one day I met bloke explaining him what am I after and he told me he has 1 fob at home but its from Corolla. OK let's give it a try. I set car into programming mode and after the procedure 3x on/off, etc... I got flashers slowly blinking but only 2 times. I started to getting happy 🙂 but at the end Corolla fob does not work at all, but at least I got some response from car... Any ideas? I want to avoid buying a new fob for 100$... Cheers! Martin -

Toyota Landcruiser problems
Ah yes . Oh what a reaming..... Toyota.!! I had an aftermarket electric tailgate opener fitted $1500. Closes the door from inside and out. Mines a vx. Reverse sensors only turn off with toggle with "car and witches hat" on 300. They stay off till switched back on. I put my keys in the door pocket.the jingling almost drowns out the squeaking of the middle seats I sent a hand written registered letter personally addressed to the CEO of Toyota Australia and he did not have the decency to reply. Emails go ignored Toyota Lack of Customer Experience centre inept and uneducated regarding the legislation they are required to operate under. At least the 300 here didn't have the 3.5 TT petrol. Are you listening Toyota.??? NEVER AGAIN -

200 series after market 35 inch tyres
Ive seen a 200 with them fitted on the weekend and they were on 17s (GXL). The owner was very sheepish to say the least to pass on the info what had to be done other than some panel work on the from inner guards. 0 offset (bead lockers) and 3 inch lift and he still had rubbing. He was going to do some more panel work to allow the rubbing to not tear up inner guard (alloy plate) but it made my 200 with 20's and 2 inch lift look like a baby sitting next to it... -

300 series turbo issues
Hope I haven't posted twice but the issue is that this happens at all and the drop in torque and AFR off the chart when it does (7th injector problem??). By the time you notice it you're in a torque hole and your DPF is starting to cough coping with the lousy mixture. Nothing to do but push more fuel in and accelerate aou of it. It happens regardless of whether you notice it or not and regardless of whether you're towing. can't be doing the DPF any good. They're $7 grand to replace. They're still selling them and not telling anybody that this "design characteristic" is what to expect from your perfectly designed engine. Hopefully dyno report is attached. Ask what your service manager thinks and watch them squirm -

Stout Owners
Putting 15" or 16" on will only make it slower, won't have the power to pull higher gearing, trust me I know, my cousin has one. He ended up putting a 4y/ 5speed in it -

300 series turbo issues
I have since found when it happened again on steep incline, lift foot on accelarater pedal, drops a gear and then back on the gas an no issue as is out of the rev range approx 2200 where it happens. (This is all done in a second so not a drama at all now for me when it happens) -
