Car is burning excessive oil, especially after sitting for some time (white/blue smoke) was told it needs valve seals. How much of a pain is this job? can it be done when the engine in the car? or does it have to be removed?

Thanks! I actually work at a Toyota dealership. but was checking out my options. I will be installing a factory Toyota rear main seal.

Hello!
I have a 1996 celica and the clutch is garbage due to the fact the rear main seal is leaking all over it. Going to replace the rear main seal. but figured its time for a new clutch. This is not a project race car, this is just a point A to point B car. I enjoy this car very much. 305xxx and want to keep it running. trying to see whats out there for clutch and flywheel options that wont cost me an arm and a leg but is reliable. Thanks

window regulators? driver side. with motor? how much?

so every time i drive the car (recently) when stopped when i turn the wheele it sounds like somethign is about to crack, i know you get a "thump" sound when the shaft is bad but mine sounds more like somethign is slowly cracking, condemning the steerting shaft. yes no? thakns

ive got the fog lights on the turn signal thing. so not in mine. lol

so i have a 5speed 1996 toyota celica hatchback, and i took out the pannels to paint (vents,switches ect.) i noticed that on the driver side vent theres a place for a switch. mines does not have the switch its just looks like there should be one there like i coudl pop out the plastic and put one there. what option does my car not have? this is killing me haha thanks.

Fusible link needs to be replaced. any idea on how to do it? or does this HAVE to be done by a tech?

so yesterday i put in subwoffers, they worked for about 5 min then i shut off the car. disconnected them, now the car wont start at all. batterys good, fuses are good, not sure about relays, dont know how to test them, but when i try to start the car nothign but silence, not even cranking. i tested the battery with a DMM and its a good battery, BUT when i put the keys in the car noting happens, not even getting power to locks,radio,lights,anythign. NOTHING at all happens. anyone know whats up? Thanks

i just need to find a good realiable place to buy one, so that i can drop it in, and have my darling celica running again.

So heres the deal. my Celica has 264,000 Miles on it, and my transmission is going and i need a new one, any ideas? im gonna put it in myself but i need a new one asap. thanks for looking and helping.

I got the right one, made sure they looked it up right at autozone. this is after they gave me the wrong one the first time.

so i needed a new alternator, so i bought one, put it in, made sure everythign was plgged in and was tight, and drove it. after like 20 min of driving i saw smoke comming from the hood and the positive output on the alternator, had a small flame on it. any ideas? never heard of this happeneind.

Does anyone know where I can get and old cursive celica logo? I wanna replace it with the boring celica logo on the trunk lid.
