| I don't know what your dealer did, but you don't flush A/C systems. They are a sealed system and they are simply vacuumed out and re serviced with a machine. There is no such thing as lifting out the system. The only component the you would possibly take out and drain is the compressor, which contains some lubricating oil. And that would only be done if they were changing it or converting it from the old R-12 freon used in most pre-1992 cars to the R-134. | |

I have a 03 Camry SE V6. It now has approximately 60200km on it. Whenever I turn the steering wheel from its center position, I can feel a little vibration (perhaps a click but it's not something I can hear). It feels like something is loose. Also, I am getting a very strange sound lately when I turn off the car after driving it. It's most noticeable when I get off the car. I could hear a noise that's similar to sticks hitting a metal bucket really hard. It sounds only once. I think I've heard that same sound inside the car when I came to a stop before, but wasn't sure. Any ideas as to what that sound is?

We have a 2002 Toyota Camry XLE with ~25,000 miles that has been trouble-free. Lately, when we first start the car and begin driving, we hear a "swooshing" or "sloshing" noise of what sounds like fluid in the steering column when we turn. Is this something to be concerned about? It has me baffled. Thanks in advance. epond

My wife's 02 Camry LE has disc/drums with no ABS. The brakes are awful on this car. Thre is no mechanical problem, as I have removed all four wheel and inspected everything. The fluid is fine and I re-adjusted the rear brakes. The pedal has no feel to it at all. I went to Toyota and voiced my concern and was told they are all like that. My plan is to upgrade to Stainless Steel lines to replace the rubber hoses. I feel this may provide some additional feel to the pedal. Has anyone else noticed how poor these things stop and the lack of feel? I'll admit, I drive hard, but my Ford Ranger will outstop the Camry. Thanks |

Replying to: themoon77 (Nov 02, 2004 7:32 am) If the AC drain hole was clogged, would you not see water under your car from the condensate or am I confused? Haven't posted to this group before - my wife's '02 Camry is having the same gurgling/sloshing noise others have mentioned. They said that it is most likely an air gap and the system would have to be purged. They are estimating $85. Anyone else have to pay for a car under warranty and did the purging help? The tech says it is classified as maintenance even though "only" one other car has been in the shop for this reason. Thanks in advance! Darin
