Question about 1994 toyota camry?

Dear all,



When I did oil change most recently, the person in the repair shop said that I need change the fluid for transmission sys, brake. Can I do this by meself? If yes, is there any special place I need to pay attention to? Do I need to drain the old fluid out and then for the new one?



By the way, I feel the sound from my car become bigger. So they checked it is the gasket. We need to replace it. Any of you has similar experience. Any idea on how much will it cost?



Thanks,

Draining and Refilling the ATF is not too difficult but make sure you know where %26amp; what under the Camry to loosen in order to drain the ATF and exactly where and How to Refill It. FYI CHANGING THE AUTMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID is recommended every 25,000 to 30,000 miles.



I have only experienced such problems once on 1980 Toyota Corolla Station Wagon that had over 100,000 miles and LEARNED MY LESSONS %26quot;Big Time%26quot; bec FYI overhaul is extremely expensive like $1,500 many years ago and the guarantee warranty is not the best meaning it is not exactly like brand new that I personally know coworkers and family that paid and then ended up trading/selling the vehicle..



If I were in Your Shoes and plan on Doing the Job Yourself then you will also need to buy an oil drain pain, about 3 QTs of Dexron III ATFluid and may I recommend you stop at Lowes Home Improvement and buy the proper 10mm Allen Hex Wrenches to remove the ATF plug as well as a Skinny Funnel %26lt;= how you refill the ATF Fluid.



FYI when I did change the ATF on our 1993 Toyota Camry LE Sedan had 211,00 miles, on all my Toyotas after the reached 100K, I made it a practice/routine to change the ATF Fluid more frequently like every 15,000 miles bec a simple drain %26amp; refill sure beats spending the Big $$$ to do a transmission overhauI...bec for me ATF drain %26amp; refill every 3rd oil change...



Simple Do It Yourself preventive maintenance that will stretch your investment in a Toyota a very long way... It's quite simple with the right tools bec one simply opens the ATF drain plug, then measures how much came out and then refill like 2 to 3 quarts of ATF according to the manufacturer specifications via skinny ATF tube. Also note it is extremely critical not to refill with wrong ATF, otherwise troubles begin and TRANSMISSIONS are expensive to overhaul %26amp; fix and often times never the same that people give up and trade-in as lessons learned experience.



Hope the Above Info Helps %26amp; Best of Luck!Question about 1994 toyota camry?
It is a good idea to have the transmission fluid changed.As far as doing it yourself, you can, but unless you've done it before I wouldn't advise it.You've got to drop the pan on the bottom of the transmission and if you don't tighten all the bolts up equally at the same time,it will leak.The exhaust leak shouldn't cost much you fix and if you know someone locally like a friend of a friend you could probably get them to do it for less than a hundred bucks for everything.Question about 1994 toyota camry?
I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE SAYING OR ASKING ,BUT I HAVE A QUESTION.HOW DO YOU FEEL THE SOUND GET BIGGER???????
