Just the remainder of the powertrain warranty but the sales manager is a friend. I don't think there will be any problem with the dealer fixing this.

It turns out there is an issue with the rear defroster that is causing interference with the radio. They are replacing the rear window.

Tomgreen1000 - Did you ever get an answer regarding your noise? I just purchased a 2010 Toyota Camry SE and I am hearing a noise only when I first start the car and the vehicle has been driven a few feet - the vehicle has to hit between 7 and 11 mph for the noise to occur. The service tech is saying it is normal. What was your final outcome.

It is almost certainly the ABS self-test; the owner's manual mentions it, and my Camry (2004 model) does this under the conditions you describe.
 
Welcome to Edmunds by the way; please note you're highly unlikely to receive a response from a post that's almost 7 years old.

Yes, I received a reply. It was too much oil in the engine. I removed 1 1/2 pint of oil from the engine. I am still testing for noise. I think this was the problem.
Overall I like my 2005 LE Camry. The best car I ever own.

Welcome to the club. I have a 2006 Avalon and get the very same noise just after starting to drive the car after it has just been started. Once started you can stop and go forever and not hear the noise but you will hear it every time when starting off for the first time.
 
The noise varies in intensity from car to car and as you stated the Toyota technicians promise that the noise is part of the Toyota driving experience.
 
Too bad that Toyota does not still produce the 2000 Avalon (which I still own).

wireless entry problem-front opens-back does not by tomusaf_ret

have 02 Camry with wireless entry factory installed. All of a sudden when I am exiting the vehicle the front doors unlock, but not the back doors. have to twice click the fob to open or use the rocker switch on the driver's door. followed owner's manual instructions to reset the 1-4 code options-choosing # 3 which appeared to work. Exited the vehicle twice-no problems-came home from shopping today and back to the same problem. I know that code # 2 works (meaning no doors will lock, because I accidentally went to this code first-and it worked-no doors would lock). can lock and unlock using the fob buttons-- Any ideas?

I'm glad I found someone else with the same problem...
 
My 2010 Toyota Camry with 1,500 miles has a clicking noise since day # 1. It would happen only once and after the car has been on (P) park and then shifted to (D). Exactly at 10mph as the car is going forward it comes the clicking noise from somewhere underneath the front by the wheels. The noise I would describe it as a clicking spring.
 
I didn't pay any attention thinking it's normal, but the clicking noise is not persistent meaning sometimes is louder than others but it's always there. It comes only once as I'm taking off and then is gone until the next time I park it again.
 
It's a brand new car and I called the dealer and asked a tech. He said it's normal due to the ABS adjusting itself as the car moves forward. I don't know about that, of course he said I have to drop it off to have it checked out.
 
I posted this issue on another Toyota enthusiasts forum and two replies said it's normal. By the way one of them seems to be an expert with Toyotas.

Charlie, this is not a 'problem'.
 
This is your ABS system doing an initial self test. It is documented in the owners guide.
 
If you want to absolutely prove it to yourself (which I did), you can have someone else drive the vehicle in the morning first thing with the hood up. You walk along carefully next to the vehicle, with your hand on the ABS pump up in the corner of the vehicle. Look for the thing with the hydraulic brake lines going to it. With your hand on the pump, you will actually feel it click when it does its' test.
 
For some reason it is very noticeable on a new car, but you should find as the vehicle ages, you will no longer hear it. I haven't heard it in a number of years on our 2007.

Where is the a/c fuse?? by jbratter
Aug 22, 2009 (10:53 am)

Hi! I have a 2001 camry solara. The a/c isn't blowing cold. Before I bring it to the shop, I'd like to check the fuse. But it turns out the fuse box cover in the engine compartment is missing! Not sure how that happened... I tried searching for a diagram to see which fuse is for the a/c, but I couldn't find anything. Does anyone know which fuse it is or have a diagram for this fuse box?
thx!!
Joel
