Hi everyone. I bought a celica st recently ago and I have to say that for a 16 year old car I am impressed on how good it still drives and how good the interior looks! They age really well smile.gif ! I feel I'm gonna like this car!

when I changed the transmission fluid I was looking for a dipstick to check the level but can't seem to find it. Is there any way to check the level? (by the way a big thanks to the guy who posted on how to change the fluid smile.gif. It was very helpful!)

Also when I bought the car, the seller said that he had the clutch replaced, the clutch pedal vibrates slightly when I'm on neutral. when I press the clutch pedal, the vibrations stops. When a gear is engaged, the vibrations are a little more intense (I feel those vibrations when my foot is slightly touching the pedal). Anybody had any experience with that? It doesn't bother me really, I just want to know if my car's not risking anything.

The nut on the front of the box is also the fill level, so just fill the box with oil till it comes out the hole.

RWD diffs and transmissions (except autos which usually have a dipstick) are filled and checked using the same method.

im willing to bet that when the new clutch went in, the flywheel was not re-surfaced. that will cause the vibrations. unfortunatly you are stuck with this unless you change the clutch again and turn or replace the flywheel

Thank you for the answers. Smaay, if what you say is my case, do you think my transmission will get damage if I leave it like that?
