  1. are you talking about a "widebody" camry. I have one of them and in my car (3VZ-FE) the engine coolant slowly spins the fan when the car is idling the above pics shows where the coolant goes in and out of the fan. (sorry I couldn't get more detail) and while my car is idling / cold the fan spins at the rate of the coolant being pumped tho the pipes. once the engine gets warm, it switches. I think its a themostat issue. also, when was the last time the coolant was changed? I noticed a drop in temprature after i changed mine :) Hope that helps
  2. not 100% sure with the 2002 camry, but my 1996 (widebody 3VZ-FE) likes a warm up. my car will warm itself up by idleling at higher than normal rev's (around 2,000 rpm on first start) then once it gets warm, it slowly goes down. I've notice if I leave it to get back down the under 1,000rpm, its warm enough to drive (even if the thermo isn't at "normal operating temps") PS: if you only take on short trips like 1 mile per day, make sure you take it for a good highway style drive for a bit every now and then. I've noticed the difference if I do that with my car :) hope that helps
  3. If its just the front grill, it should be 2 screws I know on my gen3 camry, it's 2 screws!

    yeah, to find a manual here was a lucky find, but it drives nicely (even tho the old owner probley couldn't drive a manual judging by the gearbox :P) so with the autos, do people rice them up? Like custom dashes, sport seats, turbo /s, lowered, body kits? I just to get an idea, so i can do my own creation in aus Its rare to see a done up camry here (like with all the blingy bits) People do get that you have a solid platform to build on!
