OK Ive had the Camry for years now but its recently become my only mode of transport so Ive been fixing all the little problems with it.
Firstly, theres a water leak up behind the dash on the drivers side and I cant seem to find where its coming from, theres a channel in behind the fender where the water from the windscreen seems to drain through and I think it might be in there but how do you get in there to repair it?
|
try checking the window seal at the top of your windscreen for rust.

Secondly, cant get the interior dome light working, replaced globes and still nothing, any ideas?
|
take it to an auto electrician, but check all your fuses are ok first

Thirdly the car vibrates badly at idle, what would be causing this? Engine mounts?
|
possibly an engine mount. if you accelerate and take your foot off quickly can you feel the engine moving? itll make a bit of a clunck if its an engine mount. also try moving the motor with ur hand when its not running if the engine mount is stuffed itll have a bit of play. aside from that pull off the induction piping and clean your throttle body, change your spark plugs and fuel filter and air filter and itll probably run alot smoother and use a hell of alot less fuel.

The car has done 210,000kms and I run it on U98. It goes fairly well for a NA 2.0 but not quite as well as the 300rwhp car I just got rid of hahaha. Oh well fuel prices suck atm so its not all bad...
|
just run it on 91 u'll still get about 450kms out of a tank!
Cheers.
