May 8th, 2006 at 11:50pm
After months of car search, finally found the right car to buy!!
Its a Tan colored 1998 Toyota Camry LE. Came to know about this car from the tpost.com last Friday. Called up the seller and got the details. Ran a carfax check on the car. It came out clean. We then went to Johnson City to see the car on Friday, did a test ride, and found it pretty neat. Then on Saturday, we took the car to a Auto shop to do a 30 point checkup and found that the Car was in pretty good shape. Closed the deal on Saturday itself.
However, the car needed some attention to its breaks. So, fixed it, and took the delivery today.
Some Specs :
- 1998 Toyota Camry LE
- Automatic
- 4D Sedan
- Tan Colored
- Power Windows
- Power Locks
- Cruise Control
Here are some snaps :
Looking forward for a safe and fun filled driving experience in United States!

Hi !I own a ‘94 Toyota Camry. Yesterday morning before going to school, the car started without any hitch. I backed it to the driveway, turned off the engine, got back inside to get my stuff,
got back into the car, and it won’t start! The
fan turned on, and so did all the warning lights, but just no crank.. absolutely nothing. The battery was working fine as the headlight would come on bright. Nothing happended even after quite a few tries; so I left it on the driveway and cought the bus. In the evening when I got back from school, I gave it one more shot and it started perfectly! It’s been starting fine since. Any ideas what might have been the reason behind it’s weird behavior that morning?
Some other things that have been bugging me: For the past month or so, whenever I turn on the ac, there’s a low pitch ‘grinding noise’ that keeps coming from the engine area. I sounds like as if some bearings or gears are rubbing against each other. The ac blows ice-cold and other than that noise, is working fine.
The engine in general (even without the ac on) seems to have become noisier than before. In idle it’s noticeably rougher and there are some knocking during hard acceleration.
I change the oil relegiously every three months and take good care of the car.
I showed it to a mechanic and his/their opinion was that it’s the normal noise for an old car. But I’m the one who’s been driving the car and I know that a car that used to be whisper quiet and smooth just weeks ago has quickly become rougher and noisier.
I’d truly appreciate any helpful suggestions. Please help.
