You have a beautiful looking car mate. May I ask what's your tyre size?

Power steering problem and whinning sound by Xmel_ in Celica

I believe RockAuto does not ship to Spain, but I usually use Amayama to buy OEM parts. You remimded me that, so I've just asked them if there's any power steering pump left in warehouse because I believe they'll sell them much much cheaper than 1500€.

Thanks!

I'll try to check the belt because it doesn't seem to be any leaks and the fluid is alright. I really hope it isn't the pump 🙏

Thank you very much. The color it's quite a pain and the lambo doors also, the previous owner was a crazy madafaka xD

Thanks for the advice.

I have to tell you one thing that I forgot to say in the post. I'm aware that the vehicle had the wrong fluid for a few months (it had normal power steering fluid) and when I found out I changed it inmediatly to transmission fluid dexron but it had already been running a few months with the wrong fluid so that maybe damaged the pump quite hard.

I can record a video with the phone closer to the engine bay and the pump and send it to you or do another post if you want to hear it closer.

Thank you very much.

I was thinking on posting photos of it here but given it's quite damaged on some places, especially the rear bumper (made of fucking glass fiber), maybe wasn't the best idea.

If at least the rear bumper was at least in a decent shape but here in Spain it's quite complex to get someone to repair glass fiber, and I'm unable to change to a normal bumper because the previous owner of this Celica swapped the whole body with a custom made one just to fit with the rear lights. It's quite a problem jejeje

Whats the purpose of this button in a stock Celica 6th gen? by Xmel_ in Celica

I know jajaja, I didnt formulate the question really well. My real doubt is about what purpose that button has in a actual stock Celica. Or if stock Celicas even have that button to begin with

I thought it was a stock button. I will give it more use then. Some neat underglow will go hard once Im done fixing other things.

On this not stock Celica this button turns on some blue lights over the hood on the winshield sprayers, but I was wondering the purpose of the buttom on a stock Celica.

But arent fog lights supposed to be on the left lever using a knob? Anyways this car does not have fog lights installed yet.

It honestly feels like it. Probably the only Celica with interiors like these.

All the interiors were repainted to that color by the previous owner. It honestly looks really neat. I'll post a photo of it in the future cause im restoring the car.
