Hi all, I just bought 9 months ago a used 96 Camry. I am student and wanted something to last a few years. This was a spur of the moment purchase DON'T EVEN DO BY THE WAY, and I did not have a mechanic look at it.
I have been smelling oil after I drove the car, and decided to have it looked at. I have an oil leak from the head gasket. As far as I know it is external and has not affected any of my belts, etc. The car runs fine besides a shaking between 45-55mph. (I was told this was from a rear left wheel that is bent...ahh!!!) I was quoted $1500 for the head gasket operation.
What experiences do you all have with this?
How long do you think I can drive this without getting it fixed?
Best, Ashley
