  I had to have clutch replaced at 25,77 miles on my 2003 toyota celica GT purchased new april 2003. Again I had to replace clutch @ 56,089. From the day I purchased this car I had problems with putting car in gear and complained to dealer, who said there was nothing they could do. I've driven manual toyota cars since 1966 and never had any clutch repairs on any of my toyotas. I had over 144,000 miles on my 1987 toyota MR2 when I traded it in 1994. I think it IS excessive to have a total of 3 clutches at 56,089. *tr

  This may be related to nhtsa campaign ID number : 03v074000 per original recall, fuel tank assembly was replaced by toyota dealership on 07/08/2003. on 10/08/2006, the same problem was encountered while attempting to put fuel in the vehicle. fueling IS now difficult and very time consuming. only about one-tenth of a gallon can be pumped before the fuel pump automatically shuts off. this appears to be caused by fuel backing up in the fuel inlet pipe and fuel splashing back out. toyota has been contacted and a service appointment scheduled at a local dealership. however, I got the impression they are reluctant to remedy this free of charge since the problem was supposedly fixed 3 years ago. *nm

  This concerns a 2003 toyota celica GT with a popping noise in the front end when backing and turning. the dealership was unable to duplicate it; no repairs were done. it developed a hum from the right front and a squeek in the rear. a non-toyota mechanic rode with me and diagnosed a bad front wheel hub/bearing. toyota replaced it. it stopped the hum and the squeek, but not the pop. we took it for a tire rotation, but the right front tire was worn down to the steel belt so the tire shop wouldn't do the rotation. The car had a problem in the right front. We believed the popping noise and tire wear were connected. we took it back to toyota. they did a wheel alignment and adjusted the brakes. it didn't stop the pop and the steering seemed to have a problem; if the wheel was turned slightly in either direction, the car made dangerously sharp directional changes. my son took it back to toyota and was told "it's a sports car; it's suppose to be that way." two days later, the car was wrecked. the car veered to the left and hit a construction barrel, dropped about a foot off the left shoulder, and hit a cement curb. I spoke to the toyota service manager about the problems, the inability on their part to duplicate and fix the problems and the steering changes. He told me to contact toyota product liability because the car problems which they couldn't duplicate or fix. I am waiting for a toyota inspector to look at the vehicle and determine the cause of the failures. BMW issued tsb that required them to replace the steering rack after the suspension or wheels were repaired; if not, the steering could lock up. toyota has worked on the front suspension, but never performed an associated steering fix. I contend that there was a problem; toyota failed to fix it, added to the problem (steering) causing damage to the car. was toyota at fault?

• 11007445The condition known as acid rain is caused by airborne chemicals or particles in the atmosphere, which mix with rainwater, nighttime dew, or high humidity to form acidic compounds. If these contaminants settle and remain on a painted vehicle surface, especially the horizonal areas of the hood, roof, and decklid, significant damage can occur. This damage is the result of actual etching of the paint and appears as pitting or water spots. As acid rain droplets on the vehicle surface evaporate, the concentration strength of the acid increases, causing deeper and more rapid damage. This evaporation and corrosive action also occur more rapidly on dark colored cars as direct sun heat increases. It is the dealers responsibility to protect and maintain the quality of the vehicles paint finish after receipt at the dealership prior to the first sale. In areas known for high frequency and/or concentration of acid rain (see Figure 1), frequent vehicle washing during high heat or humidity periods will minimize the potential for paint damage caused by acid rain. It is further recommended that either reverse osmosis or deionized water be used to prevent water spotting.
• 11007444To prevent brake rotor rust from forming during transportation and storage, wheel film will be used instead of a cardboard type of anti-rust cover. The purpose of the wheel film is to shield the disc brake rotor from weather elements and initial rust before the vehicle is delivered to the customer. Consequently, the film should remain on the wheel for as long as possible.
• 11007443Acid rain results from rainwater or other airborne moisture that become acidic due to industrial chemical impurities in the atmosphere. If these acidic compounds settle on an exposed vehicle, especially the horizontal areas such as the hood, roof, and decklid, significant damage to the painted surfaces can occur. Acid rain damage can typically be identified on vehicles by the presence of stains on the paint surface that resemble hard water spots. Unlike water spots however, acid rain damage cannot be removed by regular washing procedures. Also, because acid rain can etch and soften the paint, normal buffing or polishing repair procedures should not be attempted. This can cause further damage and result in visible depressions in the paint surface. The following are the three major categories of acid rain damage: Minor damage: requires only buffing to repair. Moderate damage: usually requires neutralizing, color sanding, and buffing. Severe damage: extending beyond 1/2 mil of clearcoat on a pearl, metallic, or solid color, requires neutralization, sanding, and repainting. In cases where acid rain damage is minor, neutralization and buffing with a liquid-type paint finessing product may provide an adequate repair. Only specially formulated products outlined in this bulletin should be used for that purpose. Unfortunately, other than minor damage, there is no simple method of determining the actual extent (depth) of acid penetration other than color sanding a representative affected area until there is no visible etching or depressions, followed by measuring the amount of paint removed with either a magnetic or digital-type film thickness gauge. The procedures in this bulletin are intended for use by qualified body/paint technicians and should not be attempted by inexperienced personnel. It is the dealers responsibility to protect and maintain the quality of the vehicles paint finish after receipt at the dealership prior to the first sale. Perform frequent vehicle washing, as often as daily, during high heat and humidity periods to minimize the potential for paint damage due to acid rain exposure. This is especially important in geographical areas known for high frequency and concentration of acid rain and industrial fallout.

This Service Bulletin provides best practice procedures for vehicle pulling complaint, diagnosis, and repair for 2002 ? 2021 model year Toyota vehicles. This information supplements Repair Manual procedures when the symptoms are: ?Vehicle Pulling: The vehicle moves to the right or left when the driver holds the steering wheel while driving straight ahead without exerting steering effort. ?Steering Wheel Off Center: The vehicle travels straight, but the steering wheel is not pointed straight ahead. The vehicle is not pulling. Before repairing a vehicle pulling to one side, it is necessary to clearly identify the cause of the pulling condition. Frequently, pulling to one side is diagnosed as a wheel alignment concern. However, the actual cause may be related to the lateral force generated by the tires, vehicle damage, road crown or worn components. Performing a wheel alignment when tire force is the cause could result in the wheel alignment being set at a value outside of specifications. This could then cause other problems such as uneven tire wear, etc. A customer may notice a pull to the left when in the left lanes of travel and notice a pull to the right or no pull when traveling in the right lanes of travel on the very same section of roadway. This road crown effect is environmental and cannot be corrected with suspension adjustments or any other wheel or tire modification discussed in this bulletin.
