This past weekend my 2000 4 runner overheated. There was coolant in it. When I turned the heater on, the air was actually cool instead. I stopped to let it cool for an hour, and after that it drove fine and the temp bar stayed in the middle. Changed oil, coolant, air filter and oil filter two...

I’ve got a blown head gasket in a 1996 Camry LE, following overheating. #2 cylinder is full of oil, and the spark plug wire boot in #4 aparently MELTED and resolidified around the spark plug like cooled lava. Getting that plug out will take an act of congress. And why bother? Not when… I’ve...

I have a 1991 Corolla SR5 and recently it's been having a problem I can't quite put my finger on. After a while of driving, I come to stop or slow down, and once I start going again my rpm drops immediately and it stalls. Most times it won't turn back on right after it turns off. I have a strong...

It started overheating on a drive from Phoenix, AZ to San Diego, CA. It's a 6 hour drive. On the 5th hour of the drive, the van started overheating anytime I was on idle. I waited for the engine to cool down, topped it off and I was fine for the rest of the drive. It continued having overheating...

Hi there folks, We've got a 1983 Camry, we're based over in France. When the car starts from cold, it seems quite normal, sounds as you'd expect. Once it's been on the road for a while, if it stands in gear with the engine running, foot on brake, it seems ok. Feels a bit like it's working too...

Hey everyone, just registered and this is my first post. Im no stranger to forums so let it be known that I looked for a solution to my issue in the threads prior to this post. It seems that I have a unique issue to everyone outside of this forum so hopefully someone can point me in the right...

As this question - towing and hitches - will be asked routinely, all of them will be now in one merged thread. Has anyone had an OEM hitch receiver installed on the 2020 Limited or Platinum yet? The hands-free liftgate is apparently an issue. Last I heard, Toyota was trying to figure out a...

Hey everyone, For the past half year or so, my '04 Solara has been having overheating problems. Last fall, I overheated pretty badly on the interstate and had to kill the car. Thought I fudged it, but run fine for a while after replacing the water pump last October; the problem subsided for a...

Well I think I found why my trucks been running hot.. The truck is pretty new to me so I don't know how it happened or how long its been like that but those fins are obviously toast. Is there a way to repair the radiator so that I can keep the stock metal coolant tanks and just replace the...

For those who are dealing w/overheating issues. You've replace just about everything (radiator, fans, thermostat, temp sensor, hoses, radiator cap, etc.) and still no solution. The following symptoms lead to me finding my culprit. Overheats (even w/reservoir tank full) When you remove the...

found a 1990 cressida near me that looks to be in good shape but the owner says it is having over heating issues. i texted him and he told me it over heats after about 20 minutes. he also said that he suspects a water pump or heater core to be the issue because the pump leaks when running...

Posting because i never saw this happen before. Car is a 1997 camry 4 cyl 250,000 miles. Pretty much a trouble free car. While cruising at highway speed it started to overheat never a problem before. Upon stopping the lower radiator hose came off at the radiator i could only assume the clamp was...

Hi my name is Ken. Thank you for taking the time to read my thread. So my wife drives an '03 Sequoia. The other nite she mentions the heater isn't working so I automatically assume heater control valve. The next morning I start inspecting. Crank the truck and let it idle to operating temp and...

I have a 7AFE Corolla, I have been very aware about how is the cooling system is working because I am going to do a long travel with my car the next month. I have noticed that when I get home and the engine is at operating temp I can feel bubbles in the upper radiator hose (the coolant is...

I've read through some of this 80 page thread about the notorious stripped head bolt issue. Most of it seems to be about DIY stuff. http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/104-5th-6th-generation-2002-2006-2007-2011/325124-official-2002-2006-camry-2-4-liter-2azfe-stripped-head-bolt-thread.html I...
