water

I filmed and detailed how to change the water pump on my 2nd gen Sienna. This vehicle has the popular 2GR-FE engine, common in other vehicles such as the Highlander, Avalon, and Camry, among others. There's some documentation out there that says you have to remove the engine to complete this...

When I park my 2011 Corolla LE outside, it's usually on a little slope so the front is facing downwards. After a rainstorm, when I back the car out, to the point where the front is higher than the rear, a small amount of water drips from somewhere behind the dashboard down to the footrest on...

Hello, Last year I replaced my water pump in a 2005 Toyota Highlander. Today, I brought it in, only 6K miles later, and the technician claims it is leaking and recommends replacing it. When I reminded him that it was just replaced by them, he quickly apologized and then said it would be...

Hi there, I'm having trouble with my 2000 Camry LE V6. After it rains I notice there is A LOT of water on the driver side floor mat. When I'm driving around in the rain I can feel the water hit my shoes. A mechanic thought a rubber grommet on the firewall came loose thus causing water to get...

We noticed that the driver side floorboard was soggy, so we removed the floor mat, propped the carpet up, and drained about an inch of water using the rubber plug. Well, it was left with the plug in and the carpet propped up over the weekend and, this morning, there's over an inch of water...

Hi There, I have 2 issues: 1) Water in the side compartments in the trunk where the jack and tire iron go. This is a recent 'development'. The surrounding carpet inside the trunk is dry, but there is water pooled in those compartment areas. Has anyone else experienced this before and what did...

For the past couple of days I've gotten into my car and been struck by how musty and dank the air is. It was fine last week, but now it's horrible. Driving with the window open helps, but when I get in the car again after being at work, the air is again dank and damp. This morning I could feel...

Every time it rains hard, we end up with standing water (up to 3/4 inch) in front passenger floor in front of the seat of my wife's 2005 Highlander V6. There's no indication of water getting in through the door, sunroof or window (all seals look good, all gaskets dry, no water on seat, headliner...

Hi, Hope someone can help me with this problem. I have a 2005 Toyota Echo with no sunroof. When there is heavy rain, I end up with extremely damp carpets in the driver's side. There is also water which looks as though it has leaked from running do the driver's side of the windscreen. I...

i bought a K&N Cold air intake for my 06 corolla S. i havent put it in yet im waiting for the weather to get better. anyways ive heard about the risk of water getting sucked into the engine via the filter. im just wondering if anyone has had this type of problem with a toyota or if i should do...

Heya, Lots of rain up here in the north east. The GF took the camry ('95 2.2l) through what looked like a shallow stream going across the road, turned out to be more like a river. Made it through with a huge splash, then stalled out and died several hundred feet up the road. The engine turns...

I've got dried water in my left trunk light (the reflector housing the reverse light...opens with the trunk) and I tried the oven trick to soften up the glue and clean it, but it seems the previous owner of my car (who also treated the car like words I don't want to say) has used some other type...

On my 1991 All-Trac wagon, 4A-FE, I just did my first ever timing belt job, along with replacing the water pump. Here's what I learned. 1. The Toyota Factory Manual is an incredibly valuable resource. If you don't own one, get one. 2. This job was a good excuse to buy more tools without...

i have a 88 pickup, 4WD 22RE fuel injected and whenever i go through a stream or even after i spray off the undercarriage, the engine will start to shake and the engine lugs really bad until i hit a high RPM and then it will have some power, it takes forever to get up any speed and it feels like...
