This is my tenth UOA on my 200 Camry 2.2L (5S-FE) done using Schaeffers/WearCheck kit. Previous nine UOAs were by Dyson Analysis. Latest results on the right, oldest on the left. I did a Auto-Rx clean and rinse using Castrol GTX which explains the long gap (84,726km to 101,477km) and I did not...

My '00 Camry 2.2L with 100,000km was making strange suspension noises. I thought it was the sway bar bushings at first. I greased them but noises were still there. Then I examined the shocks and I discovered some strange deposit build up on 2 of my shocks, right rear and right front having the...

Im thinking of trying either of these products for a stronger spark in my '00 Camry 2.2L: http://www.xtreme-101.com/ S$150 each. 1 year guarantee. Made in Malaysia. Dealer says 1 unit is enough. It simply amplifies the supply voltage to the ignition coils from 12v to 14v. Dealer claims it does...

This is my first UOA on my 2003 Corolla 1.6L (3ZZ-FE) done by Schaeffers/WearCheck kit. Im not familiar with some of the results, Nitration 95? Scale from 0-200? Oxidation 2930? TAN 1.93? At what TAN level is the oil considered unuseable? Does new oil start with TAN = 0? If anyone can shed some...

I noticed my '00 camry I4 with 91,000km is slightly faster when headlights are off, about 0.2secs faster in 0~100kph. Vehicle is mostly stock with no power robbing ICE system. So I decided to change my PK20TR11 sparkies with only 20,000km on them, and noticed there was no longer a problem with...

My 6 yr old camry exhaust pipe looks stainless color but has very few rust spots on it. I did a magnet test and the magnet seems to stick to it. I need to weld an 02 sensor bung onto it but am unsure whether to buy the stainless bung or the mild steel bung. Help.

Im experimenting with mixing 10%, 20% and 30% toluene with 98RON fuel to boost octane. It's not convenient for me to bring the toluene to the gas station and add toluene first, then pump fuel. So I fuel up approx. 90% full then go home and add the remaining 10% toluene. Question is, with this...

I have a car that pings even with premium gas.

Occasionally on cold mornings when I drive over my neighbourhood speed humps, I hear a strange sound coming from my rear suspension, like a thunk. After the suspension warms up, there is no more sound going over humps. I crawled under the car to check the shocks, rubber, bushings, etc. Cant seem...

1. Does the Final Drive Ratio mean the differential? Does it mean you turn the propeller shaft 2.74 times, the wheel turns 1 time? Or it is the other way around? 2. Does Gear 1 Ratio mean the engine turns 3.943 revolutions, the transmission output turns 1 time? 3. So if we put the tranmission...

This V6 is a bit of a sludger. Im finishing the ARX rinse phase soon and would like some opinions on which oil to use to keep it as sludge free as possible. I've narrowed it down to 2 choices: Castrol SLX 0w30 (genuine green stuff) or Mobil Delvac 1 5w40 Thanks.

I started the cleaning phase at 21,543km with fresh Toyota 10w30 dino oil and a new Toyota Denso 90915-YZZA6 oil filter. 2,686km / 4.5months later, I drained the oil and cut open the filter. Well, first I discovered it was a big mistake to use the older paper type pleated element (2AZ-FE calls...
