I was able to get a quote today from a local shop. They said they would install a transmission I provide for $575, replace the clutch' pressure plate, and release bearing for an additional $290 resur...

I have a set of craftsman mechanics tools, lots of sockets, screwdrivers etc but nothing fancy or air powered. I've done some basic car repairs like brakes, valve cover gaskets, and recently a fuel i...

Great site. Looks like the best around here is a 1999 5sfe with 160k for $385, only 50 miles away. Seems like. A lot of miles on it though. Mine only has 133k.

Anyone know what a reasonable price for a used manual transmission would be and what I could expect to pay to have it installed? I've been calling around but so far haven't gotten much info without t...

Well I spoke with the mechaninc and they are not willing to take responsibility for any of the issues. Basically they said that the repairs they did were the first try at fixing it, and now we have t...

I just checked my receipts and one refers to it as the bearing inside the transmission and another calls it the bushing that is inside the transmission. That's the part they told me they honed and cl...

That part bothers me too. In fact before it was a very small leak from just the driver's side. Now I've got two leaks and a vibration. I spoke with the shop earlier and suggested they discuss cover...

I wish I understood what it was they said was damaged by the previous person who had that axle replaced. They said they had to hone an area to repair that damage and I just don't get what part that w...

It's a really strange feeling. It's not very bad and seems to be better/worse at different times. It's not rhythmic and can't be felt through the brake pedal but is noticeable through the steering w...

I'll talk to the shop and see which seals they used. I'm still not sure what they honed on the transmission or what could be causing the slight vibration. They replaced the CV on the driver's side d...

Hmm,
I wish I knew more about this actual repair so I could talk to them intelligently about the issue. I mean they made me aware that the repair they did on the driver's side area did have some risk...

5SFE suddenly running rough - 6G Celicas Forums

The original code was a P0302 but I didn't check it after it was originally thrown as it wasn't running well enough to drive down to the parts store (I don't have my own reader).

Driving home from work the other day the car made a strange noise, possibly a backfire or something then started running real rough. A minute later the CEL came on (P0302). I did a tuneup, new plugs...

I think I may have one out in the garage with a gasket and some clips. I'll take a look next time I'm out there but may not have a chance until after the holiday.

Premium 8 Speaker options - 6G Celicas Forums

It looks like both those sets use an external crossover which will complicate things since the 8 speaker system uses a separate amp for the front mid/tweets and front 8" woofers. I believe the stock ...

How long does your convertible top take to drop? Also, if you keep holding the up/down button a second after the top stops moving do you continue to hear the motors run? I think the pins in my motor...

This may have been covered already but have you checked the stereo fuse? I know there is at least one under the hood in that fuse box, 20 or 30 amp I believe and there should be a spare provided. Th...
