You unscrew the back panel that the seat belt goes through. There was a white speaker plug back there and I just plugged it back in. Both sides were bad and I think whoever did it thought they were unplugging the windows because they didn't work. Both of my rear windows were off track and the little white rollers were broken (that arm that you can order has new rollers with it) It's a pain to get back in, but not $800 bucks worth! Don't forget to grease the replacement wheels!

I purchased my 95 last summer and the windows and speakers were also not working. Someone had unplugged them. The rear windows did not work, toyota place wanted like $800 to fix them. I took them out, ordered a new arm and it worked fine. You can remove the "washer" looking things from the window with a screw driver and pliers if your careful. The toyota place argued with me that I could not buy this part ( the arm), but I did, just can't remember the correct name for it. I found it from the guys on here though. It was an easy fix! Good luck. Remember to always put your top up, before you put the windows up!

GT or ST? GT's are known to have leaky valve cover gaskets that drip all over the back of the engine, and ST's have been known to burn oil. You probably wouldn't notice any leaking oil in your driveway unless you left the car running for a little while. I assume you haven't noticed the car smoking at all?




It's a GT. Thanks for the info. I will check that.

I changed my oil about 2 weeks ago, checked it today...empty. ? Is there a common area that these cars leak oil from? I have only had the car about a month. I park in a dirt drive, but Ii haven't noticed anything.

What size tires are you guys running? I have only had my celica a few weeks and went to get tires put on her today. The guy told me they were an odd size and he would have to order them. 205/50/16R. I don't remember having a problem with my other celica, but that's been years ago.

So I just purchased my second celica. 1995 convertible, 154, 000 miles. Changed the oil today, by myself. Used Mobil 1 high mileage oil, per your advice. Is there any other maintenance I need to do? Or problems I need to look for? The timing belt and water pump have been changed. She seems to be "loose" in the front end. Handles great, but there is a popping noise when I turn? Any ideas?



P.S. I am female, take that as you will! lol

Thanks guys. I do not know how to upload a pic. The previous owner moved to Cali and never changed the oil herself, so I don't know what kind was used. I live in NC and heard you need to go by the temepature in your area.
