Since the last one I replaces both front wheel bearings, upper control arms, lower suspension bushings, purge valve, spark plug cables, valve cover gaskets, ac compressor, condenser, dryer, pressure valve and did a flush in the ac lines. I also did the brake master cylinder, brake lines in the front, cleaned it up and a bunch of other simple stuff. It's an awesome daily now

The lever feels good, but she just refuses to disengage the trans when I squeeze nor will roll with the clutch in and engine off. Wanna buy an 03 vtx ?

    Question, anyone who knows... I bought a new PCV. I blew into one side horizontally (the way it is installed on my engine) and it had an air leak. Vertically, there was no air leak. I returned it and got another one, but the same issue? Maybe my lungs are not as strong as an engine! What do I do? Order another one? On my engine (2017 toyota camry) it is a difficult R&R.

Time for a transmission filter drain/fill, brake bleeding, coolent flush, spark plugs, rotor and brakes, ac top off, lower control arms, sway bar links, altimator check, interior shampoo and deep clean, all at 150k. Caught the stutter issue in time and got the torque converter changed at 74k on the recall 1k short of the cut-off ! Oh and the dreaded front bumper bars that holds the sides in need to be replaced 😅

Are these signs a fool proof sure way to tell if pcv valve is bad ? I've got oil leaks btt not the other signs . Major pain to replace mine . I've got to take off imtake manifol and a few other things or pay a shop . 11 Camry 2ARFE 2.5 L It's right by the intake manifold and HYDRAULIC POWER STEERING PUMP . DO I NEED TO REPL:ACE IT ?
