I hit a pothole on the highway and my right rear tire started making a very loud rubbing noise. I pulled over and found some sort of plastic bracket came from somewhere in front of that rear tire and pressed against the tire tread. The bracket is sort of shaped like a capital T with a hole in each end of the cross piece at the top. It’s about 4” wide at the top. I tried to break it off and could not. Therefore I twisted it down and towards the front just outside of the wheel well. Does anyone know what this part is? I’ve looked at many parts diagrams and can’t find it. Thank you ..read more

https://youtu.be/aTA1DUmtIyE?si=018sF6KmR1jBdCkL Hi! My name is Luke. I bought a 2001 Camry a few months ago with the intentions of turning it into a daily driver. The guy I bought it off of "rebuilt the motor", which he might've, he seemed genuine and the inside looks pretty good. But that being said there could still be something wrong. It's a 2001 Toyota Camry with the 2.2 in it. Stick shift too. I added a video link so if anybody recognizes the noise they might be able to help, thank you ..read more

All of my driving is short these days.  My daughter on the other hand has her main commute at interstate speeds - think 80mph and getting off at that speed and slowing to a stop.  The rest is at 55 then stopping etc.  So, lots of heat and consequently warped rotors. Any suggestions for the best rotors to handle this driving environment?  I know I could go out and buy some junk, but I'll be back in the same situation in 6 months...   Appreciate any thoughts ..read more

Since 1979 most of my cars and SUVs have been manual transmissions. Same with the 2007 Tacoma I traded in for a 2010 Camry. One thing that disappointed me about automatics is their tendency to 'hunt' gears on an uphill grade. I'm finding the 6A transmissions S mode, can alleviate that, at least to a point by selecting, for example 4th gear. It may be in 4th a bit longer than necessary, but I don't like when there's an upshift, then an immediate downshift which occurs on some  hills on my commute.   With this automatic transmission, I don't miss a manual. I'll also admit, modern ..read more

We are on our second Camry hybrid, 21 and now a 22. First we noticed the car was stained by the fuel cap. Then one day I parked it in the garage with a full tank of gas, came back later and had gas on the floor. (Cap was on correctly) cleaned up the gas and an hour later more had blown out.   We traded the 21 due to this issue thinking it was a one off with this car. (Toyota replaced the cap and painted the car) and the issue still existed. Now the 22 has the same issue.  Anyone else see any stains on your car ..read more

Have a two door 1994 v6 Camry coup gray for sale.  (has 182,000 miles on it).  This car was my wife's car, and then all three children used this car before during and after college.  It is an amazing vehicle, and my goal was to restore this family car to the original condition.  It has dents and scraps and needs a complete paint job.  The dash needs to be replaced due to cracks and heat damage of thirty years of Arizona, and it needs transmission work and many other little things to bring back to original condition.  Local restoration places have cost around  ..read more
