07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by Em13: 11:41am On Apr 25, 2016 |
Please I need help. I'm a lady and sick and tired of dubious people and mechanics. I recently bought a 07 camry only to notice the steering was light on the drive and stiff in reversing and doing right corners. And the car would go off if I put on the airconditioner at the initial start of the car . The car dealer said was because sensor was missing from the airconditioner unit . He took the car and on return it seemed to be OK. Then I was told steering pump needed to be serviced for the wheel issue. This seems to still be pending . But to my coming here on the way home . The car started reving in a funny way till the car stopped. Summary the gear is bad. I have not driven this car for 7 days cumulatively. He refuses to accept responsibility as according to him all was working at point of sale I'm told its a 13 pin gear ..... I've been hearing all sorts of prices and presently on our way to ladipo. Please what's the best way to handle this .... Does the well issue spell an accidented car ? Do I call police to arrest him ? I'm tired ! 1 Like |

Madam for issues like this. You have to be very diplomatic and calm down. If eventually you get a gear box which we are not sure if your gearbox is a culprit here. Make sure you get same 13pin that originally came with the car. The other ones are much more cheaper and you would be adviced to do a conversion. Note: you havr started desttoying that car. Calling those men on black on black would neither not help would only be abyssal. They would keep tricking you and collecting money from both parties while keeping your mind @ rest that all is fine Solution to your car problem; 1) get a competent mechanic to properly check what is going on. 2) run a comprehensive scan for faults on the car and get your scan result for analysis Running a scan is a first step in the right direction If you are in lagos and you need a solution.

Em13: From above, I am not able to come to terms the transmission is the culprit. Are there more details you wish to share? |
Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by AutoJoshNG: 2:12pm On Apr 25, 2016 |
Em13: Hello Em13, Don't even think about calling the police. That will just waste your time and make you spend more money with no solution. The car is most likely accidented or Nigerian used as some people package them as tokunbo. A VIN check is a must before you buy a car in Nigeria. You can post the VIN of the car here if you don't mind. You also need to check the import papers to ascertain when the car came into Nigeria.

Em13: that gearbox is currently very scarce, and costs about 250k for a replacement excluding installation fees, fluid and logistics. Where is location of vehicle? I will scan and diagnose it for free. 9 Likes |

I concur with the poster above me. Let Gazzuz handle the diagnostics. Do let is know whenever have this resolved. |
Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by Em13: 11:49am On Apr 26, 2016 |
@GAZZUZZ i wont mind your offer to scan please let me have your number. We even scanned the car before purchase , all that came up was the shocks. which i have done. The gear oil was burnt when we checked , i had to go and look for an old trusted mechanic. He seemed to provide a ray of light when he offered a 13 pin gear which he said another customer of his had gotten when he was told he had gear issues and it turned out to be a re wiring problem. So the spare gear was offered to be sold to me at a much lesser price as the owner had given it to them to sell. so today he is supposed to remove the gear in my car to be sure its the same exact one in the car . All further advise is welcome. Thanks 3 Likes |

Em13: it's sounding a bit confusing, but seems you are getting some sort of help. |
Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by honmusa(m): 2:53pm On Apr 26, 2016 |
@ops dont swap the old gear yet ,let a competent mechanic run a diagnostics on the gear first,and if possible remove the burnt smelling ATF and refill with the new recommend ATF . then with the issue of police you want to bring in ,you only have a good case if you have a written agreement with the seller that will cover you in such event of failure of any such vital component which i am sure no dealer will give you such .You bought a tokunbo car not a brand new car ,which is liable to failure any time t,so dont waste your money on police issue as you dont have a case . That is why i always advice car buyers to pay for thorough inpection check (not only scanning ) service when buying cars. |

Em13: He needs to drop the transmission to confirm compatibility? Are you sure you are not facing another 'rewire' problem? The best of luck always. |

Em13: I have been busy all day, but just had a little time to digest your post. Bold 1. Did you discover it was burnt before or after purchase. Bold 2. No one keeps a working "13pin gearbox on the ground waiting for a. Buyer, it is hot cake. Please do not pay for the gear until tested for a reasonable amount of time. (2weeks - 1 month) 3 Likes |

Hello, The gear has been changed but now , once the car gets hot it stops changing into gears .... any ideas on why? could it still be a re wiring issue? electrical issue or a sensor issue ![]() |

Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by Em13: 3:31am On Apr 29, 2016 |
Em13: Also the gear that was in there was a 25 U 250 and the put in a 15 U250 and say the difference of the 15 and 25 don't matter s long as they re both 13 pin ..... is this true ? cause I know say Oyibo go put number for a reason. They still testing it out to find the real cause. |
Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by Em13: 3:31am On Apr 29, 2016 |
JUO:Meaning ? |
Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by GAZZUZZ(m): 8:27am On Apr 29, 2016 |
Em13: GAZZUZZ: now you are running in circles, paying for oils and other things without any result. The gear installed is faulty, if you cannot afford the original gear box,(over 250k) convert to the 10pin (about 100k). |
Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by Kashif(m): 10:31am On Apr 29, 2016 |
Em13: Any codes? What is the ATF temp on scanner when this happens? Does key cycling help? |
Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by mayor2013: 11:20am On Apr 29, 2016 |
Why not just run a scan for goodness sake. Gear box changed still yet problem not solved. Scan !! Scan!!! Scan!!! |

Em13: What type of scan tool was used? This is where a professional scan tool is needed. Use actual values reading to get a more robust picture of what is going on |
Re: 07 Camry Gear 13 Pin by Kashif(m): 12:29pm On Apr 29, 2016 |
Em13: In as much as many transmission issues are without code, are you sure you are using a capable scanner? Ask the mechanic to disconnect the transmission control harness (not the range connector) and drive it. Can you provide more details? When it gets hot, does it lose mobility entirely, or does it just stop selecting? Does turning the ignition off and on change anything? But I thought a 2007 Camry should be running on U760? |

OP, how did u come to a conclusion that your initial gear box was bad. a better description of the signs you noticed would have helped guys here to direct you properly. your car started reving in a funny way and stopped..., could mean when you throttle, the car revs but doesnt pick up speed or the rpm was fluctuating up and down and then the car went off. when i had a gearbox issue, the car could rev but no gain in speed until there was no movement at all, and it gave a code. am thinking your fuel pump may be d primary culprit. |

Kashif: the 2007-09 with 2AZ-FE Engine is actually coupled to U250E transmissions the one you mentioned is for the 2.5l (code name?) engine found on the 2010-2011 camrys. 2 Likes |
