I have an 02 Camry w/69K miles. From new, now and then (every year or 18 months), when it started to get cold outside I would get a squeel when I would turn my steering wheel....something in teh steering column. They used to lube it for free but now she's a bit older they want to charge me $60! Whatever they used to do was usually done in 10 minutes or less. Does anyone know how to lube this area and with what?

Spray it so it hits the inner part of the belt that is going over the pulley. Or spray the pulley where it just get ready to make contact with the belt.

Just replaced the OEM battery (24F) for my 2004 Camry LE (4Cyl) with an Energizer that I bought from Sam's Club. Now, I'm experiencing hesitation at idle. In the store's battery catalog, there was a mention on ESP incompatability with replacement batteries which can cause hesitation. Any one else have that experience and what countermeasures were taken? Thanks!

Replying to: balakrishnap (Oct 23, 2008 11:44 am) Sometimes I see dealers run specials for this service. Id walk in, not drive in and ask about any service special. Of course this dealer has already gave you a price. Im guessing a 4 clyinder is about $200.00 labor plus $55.00 for the part.That's 3 hours tops at $65-$75/hr. A master mechanic specializing on this car will have it done in 30mins. I do my own for the price of a belt from the local parts store which is about $30.00. |

Replying to: kiawah (Oct 28, 2008 1:27 pm) I doubt if this area is bad, but another area possibly with a tube off is the VSV next to the MAF flow sensor in the duct from the air filter. The VSV(vacuum switching valve) could have a loose tube, hose. It is to the right of the MAF, and related to the EVAP canister in the trunk area. This is for a 2AZ-FE engine (4 cylinder).the fuse for EFI main is forward right corner of fuse block |
