  1. Camry 7th Generation (2012-2017)
    Hi guys, I have got a 2015 toyota camry, done 120k miles, issue is a clunk noise (Metal striking or shocker bearing cracking) coming from front driver side (Right) on accelerating, reversing or any hump on the road. NO NOISE ONCE ON A PLAIN ROAD AFTER ACCELERATING. Took it to the mechanic...
  2. Camry 5th and 6th Gen '02-'11, Solara '04-'08
    Car: 2003 Camry 2.4 LE, over 200K mileage. I have new brakes, new struts assembly, new tie rods (Inner+outer) in short the front end suspension all new parts. But for some reason I hear gentle thumping noise when I hit a speed bump left and right. All bushings in front end were also replaced...
  3. Camry 3rd and 4th Gen '92-'01, Solara '99-'03
    Hey guys, So I have replaced my rear struts, bushings, and stabilizer links and I STILL have a clunking/bouncing noise when traveling at lower speeds going over small/large bumps. Could it be the Control Arms? At this point, I don't know what else to look at and I want to get rid of the awful...
  4. Corolla 7th Generation (1993-1997)
    So I recently bought a fairly good condition 5spd 97 DX from my friend and overall it runs and drives great but it clunks from the drivers side when I’m taking off from first as well as when I get on and off the gas while cruising. He sold it to me that way and said it might be the axle so I...

    Hello all! I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy and taking advantage of the stay at home orders to get out in the garage and tinker on their car. I have a 1997 Camry 4cyl. that I picked up 1 year ago for $2700 and have gradually been fixing little things that the former owners choose to...
  6. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    As the title indicates, I have an 06 matrix that turns over but won’t start, and a grinding/ clanking noise comes from the flywheel/ clutch area, clutch has a bit too much play and I don’t think it’s the slave cylinder as it moves the shift fork just fine. There’s fluid sprayed on the drivers...
  7. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    Hi, I've got some clunking coming from the rear of my car when changing directions and am assuming that it's the sway bar bushings, although it could be the other worn bushings back there. I'd prefer a stiffer suspension and have been looking for a higher durometer rubber for the bushings...

    Here’s how to replace the stabilizer bar links and bushings on a Toyota Camry (or any FWD Toyota/Lexus): Front end clunks over bumps are a common occurrence on many vehicles with worn suspension parts. The stabilizer bar end links have two ball sockets on either end which can wear out...

  10. Corolla 8th Generation (1998-2002)
    I made a short video explaining what’s inside a CV axle and how it works to power your car’s wheels: Here are a few photos of the breakdown. The CV Axle contains the inner joint, which slides and swings slightly, and the outer joint, which can swing to extreme angles. Pop off the boot That...
  11. Camry 3rd and 4th Gen '92-'01, Solara '99-'03
    Recently changed rear struts, rear control arms (the adjustable ones), front control arms - I DID NOT do the front struts. Prior to replacing rear struts/control arm, there was clunking when i'd hit bumps at low-ish speeds... To keep this short, i had a mechanic from craigslist replace rear...
  12. Camry 5th and 6th Gen '02-'11, Solara '04-'08
    I just recently installed a steering rack and outer tie rods on my 2007 solara. Everything seems to be running smoothly except for one thing... there is a clunking noise when I make a left turn. I'm assuming it's the castle nut because I torqued it to ~20-25 ish. Now my request is two-part: what...
  13. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    Hey guys, I'm trying to figure out the source of a creaking sound coming from the rear passenger side of my car. I searched the forums, but all I found were people pointing towards the common windshield creaking sound (which I have already fixed) The sound occurs only on sharp turns or light...
  14. Camry 3rd and 4th Gen '92-'01, Solara '99-'03
    I'm a noob with a 2001 Camry LE, 4 Cyl, automatic, with suspension clunk-noise for about ~3 years. I've been hearing that clunk in the back, and bumps have gradually gotten harder and harder. Multiple mechanics did the bumper-downpush test and said the stuts/shocks/springs seemed OK. None seemed...
  15. Camry 5th and 6th Gen '02-'11, Solara '04-'08
    Hey everyone, I'm new to this forum and searching for answers before I go to a mechanic that I don't know and are going to try to burn me on stuff that I don't even need. So my fiance had 18's on her 2003 Toyota Camry LE 4cyl. We just replaced them with stock 15" wheels. About 2 months ago we...
  16. Corolla 8th Generation (1998-2002)
    Please help. When I drive on low speeds on a bumpy road or over gravel it clunks and sounds like metal hitting metal, however the noise stops when I apply the brakes. Even if i just press the brake pedal slightly. What could this be?? Could something be loose or messed up bushings? I took of the...
  17. Avalon 2nd Generation (2000-2004)
    Why does my front end squeak/chirp when I apply the brakes on a bumpy road? I have a 2002 Toyota Avalon XLS with 187,000 miles on it, but in great shape. The squeaking/chirping noise has been going on for about 30,000 miles during which time I have replaced the struts, sway bar bushings, sway...
  18. Tundra 1st Generation (2000–2006)
    I just changed the oil my '06 Tundra with LSD axle. Used 80-90W Valvoline Syn-Blend. Started to chatter badly after 3 days. Many confusing thread on this topic. Thinking of changing to 80-90W Regular Lucas oil (not syn) w/ Motorcraft LSD additive (4oz.). I read on the TORCO website that...
