Replying to: kiawah (May 17, 2009 6:23 pm) It could be leaking out slowly. Is the fluid full or empty? Then if full, the master cylinder failed. Of course someone could have filled it for you when getting service. |

Replying to: daises2daises (Jan 04, 2009 5:28 pm) Kindly be advised that the Power Steering Pump producess VERY high pressure, (between 800 to 2000 pounds.) --- This causes VERY HIGH HEAT! --- The heat leads to fluid breakdown and fluid failure. --- The fluid should be "clear" not cloudy, and should NOT smell burnt and / or toasted. As miles accumulate on the vehicle, microscopic particles of metal & rubber can buildup in the fluid. These particles can act like an abrasive and acelerate pump and gear wear, so as such the fluid should be changed. Based on your "posting," your vehicle has 70,000 miles. I would have this service performed ASAP! Best regards. --------- Dwayne |

I just bought a used 07 Camry LE and the engine air filter needs to be replaced. Any advice on the best site(s) online to get a quality one for a good price? Also, is it important to get a "genuine Toyota" filter? Someone told me that the air filters you'll get at AutoZone, Pepboys, et al don't last as long, whereas a high quality one might cost $50+ but can last much longer. Is that true? |

Anyone use a K&N air filter? I was looking at those but they are around $50. As I understand it you can wash and reuse them basically for the life of the car. Is it worthwhile?

Replying to: dlrev (Jul 12, 2009 7:13 pm) After all, cars still have throttle plates that open and close, so your intake air flow is restricted by your right foot anyway. Now if you want to add a system for COOLER air, or ram air, that might have an effect, depending on how your stock system comes from the factory. Modern cars leave very little on the table in terms of air filter design.
