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 |

Auto or manual trans? If auto, change the tranny fluid and filter. Double check the axles to make sure the boots aren't ripped, that could be the cause of the popping. It could also be a worn out bushing, but check out the axles first since they are easier.
