It's been awhile since I posted here, but as always, 6gc.net is a great place to be.
 I think I'm into my 7th or 8th month of searching for a Celica, and have certainly let a few good ones by. (Two that come to mind are a '94 GT-FOUR with 226k km on the clock for the price of a normal celica, and a white '98 SX with 19 000 km on the clock). Anyways, I was wondering if there was any common or recurring faults on the 6th gen that I should look out for? Any help is greatly appreciated. --------------------  |

Mine doesn't burn oil as far as i can tell, does tend to get through it though (probably more my driving than anything
 ) Antenna is fine, a little wd40 doesnt go amiss tho. BUT i do get a real nasty squeel when i fire it up in the mornings and go full lock to get off my driveway. Heard this is probably the power steering, anyone know how to silence this cos it is kinda embarrassing, makes your car sound like an old banger, just cant have that!! How about fitting a new power steering belt? Other than that, these are sound cars and you could do far worse!!
