What's wrong with your Gen5/Gen6 Camry??

[scamry]

OK guys, I looked but didn't see a thread on this, so here goes... What is wrong with your Camry right now, what little problems are irking you? What big problems are preventing you from driving it? What needs to be done?? (don't clutter this thread with a bunch of crap please...)

I'll go first.

1. I've scraped a lot of bolts off the bottom of my car, so the plastic lining is hanging down and partially being held up by string. (it sucks to roll hard haha)
2. Two dents on my hood that I am too lazy to have fixed.
3. My suspension is too stiff, so my sunglasses holder and my in-dash rattles and hates me. Got a nice vibration in the back that I try not to think about.
4. Sunroof needs re-zeroed.
5. Interior is starting to show its age, needs painted and reupholstered.
6. Have to get fenders shaved before wheels go on in spring.
7. Need to put my HIDs in.
8. And I get this occasional whine from the belt. I thought I fixed it, but it reared its ugly head again the other day.
9. Most importantly my front passenger suspension is messed up from an accident way back in the day...

But, I love my car. I really really do.

1. engine is just so noisy, especially with a load and around 1800 rpm
2. damn DBW still cant get my driving habits perfect. i hate the hesitation
3. in very cold weather, my b pillars rattle a little
4. so many nicks small scratches from living in the city
5. suspension is so rough from living in the city

car is still in damn good shape, just a few of my gripes

2002 XLE 4cyl

1. Driver side door panel rattles when I turn the stereo up(stock JBL system no subs)
2. Two of the LED's on the HVAC unit are out
3. Dash occasionally rattles
4. Was involved in an accident a couple years ago--rear driver's side door had to be replaced and the black trim around the window has faded.
5. Engine often squeals because it needs a new serpentine belt
6. Lots of tiny paint chips on the front of the hood

But it's still in great shape for it's age, and like you guys I still love driving it.

1-havent put the roof spoiler back on
2-need a clear coat for my wood trunk
3-roll fender for spacer or better offset wheel
4-need to finish my interior, n fix all the rattle noise
5-got hit on driver side rear bumper havent get it fix yet
6-damn recall-have to get it fix
7-suspension suck but love the look
8-more decals/stickers for my wink mirrior
9-sound deadening for more quite cabin( slam, exhaust)

but still love it everyday

1. there is a rattle at times above my head on the left side(need to take apart headliner and see what it is.
2. my car looks like a suv at times in the summer(coils are coming before this summer though)
3. my right projector has a messed up cutoff shield.
4. small chip on the front lip next to the drivers foglight(unnoticable but still need to touch up).
5. need se side skirts.
6. would love some paddle shifters.
thats about it.

07 camry i4

- mounted foglights, but not game enough to wire them up
- stock exhaust is crapola, and does my head in. "atleast now your car wont sound like a pansy" - my girlfriend
- riding a bit high in the front, i wonder if changing the shocks will drop it just a bit.
- looks too stock, and needs some "RK sports lip kit" love
- too many fine little scratches which needs to be buffed out and then waxxed (will do it next week or something)

2003 LX I4.

The Daughter took out neighbor's brick enclosed mailbox when it iced over a month or so ago. The Camry held up well - dent in front edge of hood and it is bowed ever so slightly, but still closes. Took out the front bumper cover (but not the reinforcer thingy), grille and the left headlight. I ordered parts and bolted them on. so...

- Dented hood
- Front bumper cover needs painting
- Grille needs a new emblem
- Front driver's side wheel cover is missing emblem
- Section of dash around radio makes a squeaky rattle on occasion

Other than that, it's in great condition. Other than that it is even more full of junk than The Daughter's room - something I scarcely thought would be possible.

-I put an intake and muffler and my MPG goes down to 16 =((
-Lost some power, maybe because the machine need to learn the new intake and muffler
-I messed the front bumper because bought wrong fog light (bought gen 5 instead of gen 5.5)
- Some punk hit and run and leave me a big hole on the rear bumper...

Dash rattles, it rattles when it is cold. It rattles with my music, it rattles to the base rhythm of any cars passing me.
The paint on the hood; seems like they only put primer on it. Every week I have to go around and touch up all the tiny holes from driving on the fwy. And this is in CA, not sure what you guy in the East coast with all the sand and snow do.
The 2nd gear hesitation on the tranny; have gotten it under control for regular driving, not so after making a turn, almost like the car is going off on me.
No thigh support on the driver seat, kills my knee and back, and I am not that old.

This car has only ~50KM on it and I am not sure it would not hold up as well as my previous Toyota's.

-It's not a V6.

2002 V6, 137,000 miles.

Answer: NOTHING!

[JustAnotherAsian]

2003 14. 160,000 miles.

the only problems that exist are problems that are caused by my me.

1. small rattle in front passenger door- probably because i took it apart for speakers.

2. road noise. but that's due to a combination of coils, 18x9.5, and eagle a/s tires.

i'm not putting up mods-i-have-to-do. that's a separate and never-ending list with shit-in-the-garage-waiting-to-be-installed at the top of that list.
