Camry 96

Hi,

I own a 96 camry LE V4 2.2 Liters and need advice on following problems

  1. The car shakes at 60 to 70 mph if I apply brakes. Is it brakes or front axles?

  1. I bought the car six months ago and found after a month that engine light is on all the time. Looked under the hood and found that EGR valve was completely diconnected. The car runs great and its running without the EGR valve. I do not know how is it working. The dealer wants to charge 369 dollars to replace it.

  2. The left hand side head light is dim all the time. I changed the buld but its still low. Please advice.

Regards Rameez

Brake problems are common with this series. If the shaking isn't too severe and the pads are ok, you can probably just live with it.

Depending on where you are the car may fail its next emissions test without that valve. You may be able to replace the valve yourself for much less - hopefully someone here will tell you how.

Check the wiring for bad ground or poor connection.

Hate to state the obvious, but is the actual headlamp assembly lens scratched, filmed over, full of moisture, etc...A big problem on my mustang...

By disconnected, do you mean just the rubber hoses or the EGR valve is completely gone?

You might be able to fix it yourself if you get a Haynes manual, or visit

. Not sure how confident you are with projects like this, but it's worth a shot.

By the way, it is a violation of Federal law to disable the EGR system. You might mention this to the guy you bought the car from, and threaten him with small claims court if he doesn't fix it.
