Ok need help solving this mystery lol. For some reason when I unlock my driver side door with my key and I pull the handle to open the door It locks it self back up. The only way I can open the door is if i insert the key turn the key to unlock Hold the key in the open position and lift the handle at the same time. What would I have to check or replace ??? |

My oil light came on it when the wire broke off. The sensor I believe is a knock sensor And is located on the right side of the valve cover. If it’s not damage then you might have weak oil pressure |

QUOTE (slavie @ Jun 6, 2018 - 2:09 PM)  Based on the symptoms, I would say the radiator sure isn't helping the situation. Keep in mind that the radiator has the smallest passages in the system, and it effectively acts as a filter trapping any debris and crumbs, reducing it's efficiency over time. As for the fins, are you sure you're talking about the radiator and not the AC condenser? AC condenser sits in front of the radiator. Messed up fins and blocked passages would also reduce the system efficiency, blocking airflow to the radiator. They do sell rad fin straightening tools, so might be worthwhile to clean things the best you can and straighten fins out. Finally, the coolant itself. Was it changed when the thermostat was replaced? It doesn't last forever, either. Toyota says 6y I believe, I'd say 10 years is tops for the coolant. If I were you, I'd throw new rad on it and flush the coolant with Toyota Red (1 gal of concentrate + 1 gal of distilled water is what you need). The plastic tops on the rads crack with time, so rad is almost a maintenance item on these chassis. Thanks for the update I’ll go head and order some stuff and go head and change them I’ll Let everyone know if the issue has been resolved thanks. |

Both fans work. Car warms up to normal quickly 5 mins top. Water pump and thermostat swapped 15k miles ago bad things I’ve noticed Dirty radiator almost brown liquid due to oxidation original radiator I believe And been working in really dirty environments radiator has bugs, dirt, feathers on fins What would y’all suggest to fix this.? Car only over heats when it’s super hot and on the highway with AC on Goes back to normal if I turn of ac Car stays in normal temp in city with AC on or on idle for long period time |

Just wanted to let everyone in how reliable this car has been to me since I’ve gotten it 5 years ago today. I work at a construction company so I’m constantly driving everywhere. I’m driving 100 miles a day and this guy gets me there and back home like nothing. Currently at 210k miles I wake up Monday-Friday at 5am and make my day trip. 28 mpg it’s getting me and what makes me the happiest is that I can trust it to get me there compared to other co workers that have replaced their veichles due to engine problems 2 or 3 times and I’m still with the same car. Hope yalls car is giving y’all the same luck 1994 celica gt manual 210k miles |

Random question that came into my mind. Does the type of clutch In our cars have a name Apparently there’s two of them . My friend said my clutch is weird Because you can change gear perfectly until the clutch is almost fully depressed while his you can switch gears As soon as your depressing the clutch. Does this make sense or I am crazy ? If it does exist What’s the name ? Can we change clutch types? Do we have to fully press and depress our clutches ? One question turned into multiple whoops !!!! |

What are your thoughts of this ? Would you try it ? Since most of our celica leak would adding more oil ruin the 20k performance ? |
