1) the AC issue sounds ok to me, I too have a 97 LE with 110k miles. I have no concern about it at all since AC tends to put a heavy load on engine. You have regular services on your car, I think it should be find.
 
2) have you look under the piece of board that sit on top of the spare? There should be a tool for you to remove the wheel nuts and wheel covers. I don't use that at all because it's so difficult to use that thing to losen the nuts. Instead, I got a impact wrench ($29), an air pump ($19), a travel kit (jumper cable, flash light, lighter)

AC Not Working - '03 Camry by adbs
Jan 20, 2006 (10:04 am)

I have a '03 Camry and this past weekend the AC Indicator light started flashing. I looked in my manual and it said that there was a problem with the AC and therefore it automatically shuts off and that it needed to be serviced. I took my car to the shop last night and they just called and said that the main relay switch went out and that it needs to be replaced and that part costs $140.05. He also said that sometimes this doesn't fix the problem and then I would need a new clutch for the compressor and if so, that part costs around $600.00. Should this be happening on a '02 Camry? My husband has a '96 Tacoma and has never had a problem with his air, much less anything else for that matter. Thanks for the help!

Hi I've been noticing more water under my car when the ac has been on. I know there should be some water spot on the pavement but this one is huge? Any suggestions what it could be.

Sounds like your AC drain box had a clog in the line that cleared itself when the water level got high enough. LKucky it did not start dripping on the inside of the car, leads to mold, mildew and smell.

2005 Camry LE--leaking water?? A/C related? by midorigal
Jul 27, 2005 (11:28 am)

Hello,
 
I just purchased my Camry about 3 weeks ago and already had/have questions! Toyota Ken was nice enough to help me the first time and I wonder if he or other experts are still available?
 
I'm started to notice my Camry is leaving a pool (small) of water. I only notice this if I stop by home after work and then go out again. Usually I go to work and the car gets parked all day and then go home, so maybe it's doing it more often and I just didn't notice.
 
I use the A/C all the time because it's been so hot, could this puddle of water be condensation (as a co-worker suggested)? Or is it something I should worry about? Sorry to be so green about the whole thing, it's been so long since I've had a new car and my old one used to leak oil so I'm very wary of all leaks now!
 
Much Thanks!

Two things for you. First, in all liklihood, the fluid you're seeing is the condensation from the A/C. This is normal with any modern vehicle using the A/C. To double check, before getting home (about 5-10mins before) one time, turn the A/C off. You can still use the fan, but don't have the A/C button engaged. You should not see the water pooling under the car.
 
As a recommendation in the future as well, anytime you have a leak you see under the car, place some newspaper or paper towel down where it's leaking. If there is only one leak, you'll be able to see what color it is (to tell what's leaking) and if there is more than one thing leaking, as it absorbs into the paper, the different fluids will separate as well so you can tell that too. If it's just water, it will evaporate so you'll know that too.
 
Hope this helps and certainly lets you breathe easier.

Thank you so much ToyotaKen for your reassurances and tips!!
I will certainly try that driving home and place papers if I notice another leak. I hope that won't be for a looong time!
 
You are the BEST!!

95 Camry AC by mikell01

I have a 95 Camry 4 Cyl. The A/C works fine for about 30 minutes then begins to blow hot air. In the morning when it is cooler it seems to work fine. Freon level is good.

rear seat airconditioning cooling 2005 Camry LE by eg3941

I have had several Toyota products over the years but my 2005 Camry LE has some air vents near the floor in the rear of the console that even on hi fan speed are useless in this Texas heat. I notice the the XLE model has different type vents that seem to be more effective. Why would Toyota engineer two different vent systems and don't they test these things? What a waste of money and time. Any comments? Ed Gober
