So I'm new here and i got my 6th gen about 5 months ago for $1500 from a carmax car was in immaculate condition no dings or anything. Well i come here today due to what i and others seem to believe is a cam problem. When i get the car over 2 and a half thousand RPM. There's a realllllly noticeable knocking coming from the top of my engine i've been told it's the heads, the cam, the tensioner, the valves, the timing belt. and everything Champion Toyota told me i need a whole new engine.
I have no clue and if it is the cam, i've had hell finding a new one. any support? answers? please help, thanks |

No that's not what I'm saying at all [Celicas are some of the most relaible next to Camry's and Corolla's which are very nearly the same as our Celica's]. I'm just saying Toyotas tick and it doesn't necessarily mean imminent failure.
