#504 of 558 Re: 2000 Camry [kiawah] by glorjc Jul 08, 2009 (11:49 am)
Replying to: kiawah (Jul 08, 2009 10:18 am) The engine is running fine, No smoke, just, what I call, and irritating flutter when I accelerate, makes me think I'm driving a clunker. If it wasn't for the flutter it would run like the day I bought it.   Is taking the engine apart going to cost as much as a used engine with low miles?   Thanks for your help.

Replying to: dvernon (Jul 10, 2009 7:16 pm) Have you checked the level of brake fluid in your brake system?

Mechanic checked the brake fluid container under the hood - do you mean to put it up on a rack and see if there is leakage - - Replies to this message: kiawah (Jul 12, 2009 4:06 pm)

Replying to: dvernon (Jul 12, 2009 4:01 pm) Checking the brake fluid in the master cylinder, is what I was referencing.   Can you check to see if your brake light bulbs in the rear are operating correctly. You may have a bulb out.
#509 of 558 assessed value at dealer by chris789 Jul 13, 2009 (5:50 pm)
The dealer assessed my car for a trade in and offered my $600 on my camry le 1996. The rear wheel make a noise and he thinks one of the struts might of come lose and need rewelding. Does anyone know how much this repair might cost? If its going to cost over $1000 then I might just take the $600.   Thanks, Chris Replies to this message: kiawah (Jul 14, 2009 3:22 am)

Replying to: chris789 (Jul 13, 2009 5:50 pm) I doubt that you'd be rewelding anything. Hard to say what your 'noise' is, but everything is bolted together. For instance, if your strut is bad, then they unbolt the strut, take it out of the vehicle, reassemble a new strut and put it back in, then align the vehicle's wheels.   You may want to have a repair shop actually look at what is wrong and give you an estimate for repair, as opposed to a used car manager guessing based on a sound.
#511 of 558 Broken interior door handle latch by jmgar Jul 26, 2009 (6:27 am)
The passenger side interior door handle plastic lever snapped on my 2002 Camry.   I can buy a replecement for $20 or so online. Has there been any recall on these ? It would seem dangerous to be unable to open the door from inside in an accident.   How difficult is it to remove the old plastic interior latch unit ? Do you just pry the unit out to replace, or have you got to disassemble surrounding upholstery panels ?   Apparently it happens a lot as there are a lot of ads for replacement parts.   Thanks for any help .

#513 of 558 97 Camry Tune-Up Requirements by mycamry97 Aug 01, 2009 (12:26 pm)
Hello (new to forum)   I have 1997 Camry LE, 166,830 miles. Excellent vehicle! Purchased new in '97. I inquired at Sears Automotive about cost for tune-up. I was asked about spark plugs and replacing wires. Approximately $200 total, so I didn't have work done today. I stopped taking my car to Dealer for service in 2007 (only because it was no longer convenient).   Sears has since done oil changes, transmission service, & minor services. In addition to spark plugs, what parts would be logical to replace for a tune-up. What should I expect to pay? I do not work on cars, but I like to be informed when dealing with mechanics.   By the way, Sears person also said my car required high-grade oil because of high mileage. Any comments about this?   Thanks for any feedback. Replies to this message: kiawah (Aug 01, 2009 4:24 pm) mycamry97 (Aug 01, 2009 5:38 pm)
