Hi,
It's a 1998 ES300 with 152k miles. Timing belt was changed
at 150k miles (at least that's what's written on the engine).
I just bought it from a used car lot. No warranty except 1
year power train. I actually bought the car for a friend who lives
in Boston, while I'm in Jersey so I can't troubleshoot myself.
I'd like to avoid the dealer, but can a local shop work on this
vehicle? How about a Toyota dealer? This thing is a Camry, correct?
First day the engine light went on after re-fueling,
code P1153 - air fuel ratio sensor circuit response malfunction
(bank 2 sensor 1).
cleared the code, then the car started bucking, engine light went
back on with codes:
P0300 - random misfire detected
P0302 - misfire detected cyl 2
P0304 - misfire detected cyl 4
P0306 - misfire detected cyl 6
P0171 - system too lean (fuel trim)
I can start by replacing the A/F sensor. Bank 2 is for cyl 2, 4, 6?
Thanks for any assistance,
Eli
