Replying to: tinadiva (Oct 08, 2009 10:59 am) Only you know the real condition of the car, but 80K is not a lot of miles for your vehicle, and you obviously don't put a lot on each year.   $500 is less than 2 payments.   If you buy something new (anything), your insurance payments would go up substantially from what you are paying now...that's probably enough savings to pay for your struts by itself.   I think you'd probably be very hard pressed to find any vehicle in your area for $2k, that would be anywhere near as reliable as your car.

Replying to: kiawah (Oct 05, 2009 5:01 pm) kiawah, thanks for the come-back.dealership yesterday said it was my oxygen sensor gone bad. Their going to check computer to see if any damage was done to it. I'm getting a bad feeling about this. As for taking it to another dealer, there are only two in my area. So i don't have a lot of choices. I hope i get back without losing leg, they already took an arm.
#545 of 558 Toyota 1995 Camry by bdickert Oct 19, 2009 (5:51 pm)
Turn signals and hazard only work when car is started or for a short period then they come on solid. Called the dealer - they said the flasher is bad? Are they both on the same flasher component? What is the location for the replacement - one dealer says the driver side the other says to remove the glove box and it resides there. Will a parts store have the same type or could the pins be different? Replies to this message: kiawah (Oct 19, 2009 6:12 pm)

Replying to: bdickert (Oct 19, 2009 5:51 pm) Yes, flasher could be bad, but you should also look closely at the bulb operation. Have someone work signals while you look at bulbs. Pay close attention to the intensity of the bulbs, if a filament is broke/shorting.   Yes   Could be the drivers side left kickpanel, but also might be behind glove compartment. Easiest way to determine, follow your ear to the clicking (when it's working).   Would expect to find a flasher at any parts store.
#547 of 558 Error Code p1135 by krall Oct 25, 2009 (7:43 am)
Hi - I've got an 2001 4-cyl Camry that is throwing an error code P1135. Not sure what the code is - any help is welcome. I've got to get an inspection sticker and don't want to buy the wrong sensor.   Thanks in advance.
#548 of 558 Airbag, ABS, and cruise control lights are blinking by msmith1265 Nov 06, 2009 (6:14 am)
I have a 2001 Camry and the airbag, ABS, and cruise control lights are all constantly blinking. This just started yesterday. Any ideas as to what could cause it. Could it be a fuse or something electronic?
#549 of 558 1990 Toyota Camry 4cyl by rm29n4 Nov 06, 2009 (1:15 pm)
I have had my car since 06/2008. It is a great little car, very little maintenance. However; I am in the little above average range in no how to work on cars. I have had a lot of experiences with other owned vehicles. My question is-where in the world is the PCV valve on my car. It is the wierdest thing I have seen yet. I have yet to be able to located it using the every day common books in autozones and such. It is definitely not located in the usual spot that I am used to? I appreciate the help.

Replying to: rm29n4 (Nov 06, 2009 1:15 pm) There is no PCV valve on that car. There is a hose that goes from the crankcase to the throttle body near where the flex air intake hose attaches to the throttle body. This hose looks like a large vacuum hose and needs to be checked once in a while for blockage. Because of this system the butterfly valve will tend to carbon up and cause a sticking throttle when you try to depress accelerator, and you will need to sparingly use carb cleaner on a rag to clean the butterfly valve.

Replying to: typesix (Nov 07, 2009 9:14 pm) Aha! So that's why my former '97 Camry didn't appear to have a PCV valve either. Same 2.2-liter engine (or was it 2.0 liters in '90?) Replies to this message: typesix (Nov 12, 2009 2:47 pm) 210delray (Nov 12, 2009 6:09 pm)
