Since many Celicas are advancing their mileage after all these years, what mechanical failures have you had and at what mileage did you have that failure. Were you stranded while traveling? I am planning some rather long trips cross country and want to be prepared for anticipated failures!

My auto transmission gave out at approximately 200,900 miles in October 2015. The two previous owners worked it like hell, and the entire thing had to be rebuilt.
Other issue I encountered was the ECU and rev limiter wouldn't allow me to accelerate past 40mph, or above 3,500 RPM. Never figured out what caused it, but it cleared up after letting the car sit for a week, and letting the battery die. Happened at about 201k miles, after the rebuild. |
