I have a 2000 Toyota Solara.  For a couple of weeks now,
I've been getting an indicator light for my rear lights.
It only comes on after I've been driving for a while, and
most of the time even after a couple of hours it never

Have over 80,000 on our car. Just noticed that the body rides on the tires
when we put over 40 pounds in the trunk (3 bags of potting soil). Went to
the Toyota dealer who said that he could not find anything wrong. Strange,
but I think it is a combo of the rear struts and coils ...

I drained and refilled the ATF on my Matrix this weekend at 48K miles.
It was the second such procedure, I did the first at 16K.  I didn't

I have a friend with a 2000 Camry, manual transmission, ~60,000 miles,

I'd like to get a hybrid, probably a Prius, but I don't really drive all
that much. My 1991 Honda Accord only had about 80,000 miles on it, and I
drove it less the last couple of years than ever. So, my question: Does
infrequent driving tend to degrade the life of the hybrid ...

That's over $20 a barrel.  Oil is down about $3 a barrel in the same
time.

Just bought a Corolla and the maintenace book says that the Maintenace
Reguired Light needs to be reset with the oil change.
Does this mean that every 5000 miles this light is going to come on and
not go off untill someone resets it? Is it the end of the cheap oil

How is that?  Gas prices have fallen 20 cents a gallon here in the past
2 weeks.  But oil is flat or up a bit.
Is it a conspiracy in reverse?

I am trying to locate the fuel pump resistor for my 1978 Toyota Celica.  This
is a carb model with 20R engine.  I've located the pump relay but the
resistor doen't appear to be nearby.  Any suggestions?  I've tried the
dealers but all they have is a drawing of the resistor on a ...

I just went to get into my car and the engine would not turn over.  As soon as I turned the key, my fan by the engine came on.  The lights, buzzer and horn all work.  Any body know what the problem could be?  And please do not tell me to get another car.

for reverse in there. Anyone know which wire or pin ...
