  1. my camry vibration gone after full engine flush.
  2. 2yrs ago my interior light played up. It happened several time I put new globe then fuse blown. After 2 to 3 times, I gave up and went to Toyota. They said there would be short circuit on Dome light housing and better replace the whole unit. I followed their advice and changed the whole dome light unit, guess what, the problem fixed :D.
  3. Just over a year after flushing engine, I changed oil at last April (at mechanic) and within four months I lost half of the engine oils. Eventually I decided to change the rear main seal at new mechanic. Now I'm $720 poorer, (new rear main seal and rocker cover gasket again). But no burning smells and feels happy. Hopefully, that will fix oil leaking.
  4. Yeah Mate, $200 is reasonable price, how about workmenship? rigby75
  5. My Camry had kind of similar situation and it started shaking between 90 to 100 km, but after I changed my front shocks that shaking gone.
  6. Are you worrying about blind spot? I stick round shape blind spot mirror on passenger side (external) mirror and problem sloved.
  7. To be honest, very painful and lots of hassle. easiest way is try to spray with Selleys Kwik Grip - 350G, Adhesive Spray, but that is temporary fixed. by proper way 1. remove plastic trim from pillars 2. remove hand holders, sun visors, internal light and plastic holder from roof. 3. taking out foam backing from car (super painful) 4. remove sagging old fabric trim, and remove old yellowish foam from liner 5. buy new foam and new fabric(if you want to reuse old fabric don't wash it), and adhesive (2 to 3 Tub of Selleys Kwik Grip - Tub, 500ml) 5. apply adhesive and apply foam. let them dry for a day or two. 6. apply adhesive and apply fabric, let them dry for another day. 7. put your new head liner into the car, (super painful again) 8. put hand handle, sun visor, internal light and plastic holder 9. put plastic trim back to pillars. If I were you, I don't want to do it myself again and get quote from auto trimmer. Normally auto trimmer will quote you around $120 to $200, but if you do it by yourself that will cost you $120+ and lots of time, energy and hassle. Sorry I don't have any photos while I did on my roof lining.
  8. How much different of Normal vs Sportivo Suspension? I read once as ACV36R comes with Timing Chain and no need to change and last longer up to engine life, is that true? Educate me please.
  9. I referenced following links when I changed on mine http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/103-3rd-4th-generation-1992-1996-1997-2001/369010-how-remove-stock-stereo-gen-4-camry.html http://crutchfield.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7434 http://richelectron.blogspot.com.au/2009/01/install-front-loader-car-audio-head.html
  10. very easy Mate, not difficult to install new head unit.
  11. after full engine flush by mechanic no more shaking/vibrating. Wow I didn't understand fully as why engine flush sloved the shaking vibrating.
  12. recently I check with my car revs, N/P revs => 750 revs In all gear Gear => very first reach to 800 then drop to 750
  13. engine revs is round about 800 in N/P and slightly move up when in gear (900-1000). I can see upper engine mount and front engine mount is changed, but I can't see easily lower engine mount, mechanic said changed, so hopefully changed.
