I have a 97 camry with 112K miles on it. Ive had oil marks on driveway
and after showing to the Toyota dealer he tells me the main seal
between engine and transmission is leaking and needs replacement - a
$720 job fixing it.

I need to remove the oilpan to reseal, but there appears to be a
large, rectangular rubber plug wedged between the oilpan and
transaxle.  What is it?  Does it come out and if so, what is the best
way to get it out?  Should it be reinserted after re-doing the oilpan

4-cyl. 3SFE engine.  its something to do with an improper
switch setting, I think, when I looked it up the other day.... but it
did not mean much to me. What is it telling me?  The check engine
light isn't set on, so I guess it is something minor.

I have a 1986 4-door Camry with an odd issue concerning the ebrake.
Even if it's off, and drives like it's off, the light will remain on
quite a bit of the driving time, preventing me from using cruise
control. My college commute is over 500 miles, so I almost cheer when I

I'm  trying to install a new door handle on the driver door exterior.
I have the 3 mounting bolts out.
I can't see how to get the clip off the rod.
( i don't  want to break it. )

I have a 1990 Camry 4cyl auto (A140E) transmission that won't shift into
drive.  All other transmission functions work okay.  I have done some
research and think there may be a shift solenoid problem inside the
transmission.  Is this an expensive fix.

I took delivery of this $30,000 (drive-out) car Monday evening.  It has
a JXXX... VIN meaning per the salesman that it was built in Japan.  (The
4XXX... VIN means built in USA).  Drove home, after I exited the car, and
locked the doors, the alarm system would wait from 30 to 40 ...

I searched through the archive and I know that this question had been asked
many times in the past, but I haven't seen any real answer... I want to know
how I can do it without damaging neither the plastic frame not the lens? I
tried inserting a small screwdriver into the slot ...

The indicator light on my gear shift that illuminates the P, R, N, D,
etc has burned out, and I'd like to replace it. Can someone please tell
me how to access it?
Thanks,

The exhaust gas recirculation valve (EGR valve) in my '96 Camry sticks open
after an hour or so on the highway. A hard tap releases it. I have tried
cleaning it with carb cleaner and reaming it (with a gun barrel brush). It
doesn't seem to help much. Any suggestions before I bite ...

The engine of my 96 Camry (4 cyl, manual, 118k miles) lopes at idle when
the engine is very hot.
Typical situation; after 45 minutes or more of highway driving I get off
the road, or slow way down for traffic, and the engines idle drops off

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Several months ago, using an inexpensive 12V plug-in inflator in the extra
dashboard power outlet the inflator shorted out. I didn't immediately notice
that the dash power outlet I'd used, below the cigarette lighter, went dead

following probable problems for these codes.
