#377 of 558 Re: Engine knock [kiawah] by emcqueen Feb 28, 2009 (10:52 am)
Replying to: kiawah (Feb 27, 2009 6:53 pm) Maybe I mis-spoke on the CEL. When it is on and I have it checked at the dlr; there has never been anything wrong so they reset it. In Ohio, no vehicle inspections are required...at least here in my county.   Ed Replies to this message: imidazol97 (Feb 28, 2009 2:08 pm) mcdawgg (Mar 01, 2009 5:01 pm)
#378 of 558 1999 Camry fuel filling problem by sanderson76 Feb 28, 2009 (12:20 pm)
My 99 Camry will not fill up by using the gas pump nozzle click lever. I used to be able to set the nozzle to the highest setting but not I have to barely squeeze the nozzle handle to fill my gas tank; if I fill it too fast it just clicks off. It takes about 10 minutes to fill my gas tank. Frustrating! Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong or what to do. Thanks.

I checked for error codes...none showed up. The knock is almost like there is no oil on some of the moving part (ie rod bearings)..thus a knock until oil begins pumping...then th engine runs very smooth. Replies to this message: kiawah (Mar 03, 2009 6:10 am)

#383 of 558 check engine / trac off on by vik1234 Mar 01, 2009 (8:34 am)
Hello,   i have a 97 camry and i live in the midwest. We were hit by a rain storm, and thereafter my problems arrose. I drove through a minor flooded area and after that my car seemed to be missfiring and check engine light came on I called up toyota and they recomend, i drive for a few days and it should just go away. I took it to autozone and they scanned it and said the same thing and maybe i would have to just change the spark plugs. 2 days later, the trac off light came on. Now both the check engine, trac off are on...are they both related to the same issue of a "wet engine" ? or totally diff problems. Any help is much appreciated.
#384 of 558 95 camry, Ignition came on by itself by badtimes Mar 02, 2009 (11:11 am)
I notice that the headlights were on, on the car. And when I went to turn them off the ingnition was on too. I started the car and it starts. but when I turn everything off the ignitions lights(oil, check engine, park, fuel and more lights on the dash) are constantly on, even when the key is out and iginotion in the off position. I disconted the battery and reconected it after 6 hour and everything is still on. I am thinking that it is the securty system. is there a reset button on it. I think it is an after market unit. Can someone help.

Replying to: emcqueen (Mar 01, 2009 12:23 pm) I would do one more piece of diagnostics, just to confirm whether it is inside the engine or a device outside of the engine.   With the engine cold, take off the serpentine belt. Now start the car as you would normally do and experience the noise. If the noise is still there, you have ruled out all of the other bolt-ons, and the noise is definitely from your engine (or the water pump).   If the noise disappears, then you could have a bad bearing in say the alternator or tensioner pulley.
