02 camry shaking when almost completely stop - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I changed the original battery of my 02 camry (bought new in 08/2002, 2.4L, 56,000 miles) couples of months ago. I started to notice when I brake my car to complete stop, my car is shaking a little bit (but noticeable). This happens only for 1-2 second when the car is almost stop, and go away right after completely stop. RPM shows nothing wrong. And no shaking during idle, both with gear in "N" and "D".

I unpluged battery for a day and pluged it back. At the beginning the car shake a lot, then come back to normal after 10-15 mins. But this problem of a little shaking still remains. Any suggestion about this problems? Thanks.

Get your ECM recalibrated (TSB work).

Thanks GT-R, do I need to get it done at dealer? Do you know how much would it cost? (what is TSB ?) Thanks again

Yes, only the dealer has the tool. The cost is 1 hr of labor, but if your car is still under warranty, then it's free. Make sure you explain the problem first.

EDIT: TSB is a Toyota Technical Service Bulletin.

sounds like the car just needs to relearn idling.. he just changed the battery and did a reset when the problems starts happening.

Hi danorthface, thanks for reply. Battery has been changed months ago and I actually tried unpluged (and repluged) the battery more 2 weeks ago. I thought the same so I waited before posting it here. Any suggestion for next step?

I am thinking of go to dealer but want to know if there's anything I could do/try myself first beside unplug/replug the battery. Just to save some time and money .

Thanks guys
