Hi all,
My mechanic just told me today that I need a new motor for my 98 ES300, which had only 152 k on it. I was surprised when noises started coming from the engine, so I tried to drive it to him, but it just died on the road, and so I had to call AAA to tow it. Long story short, I think the previous owner didn't take care of the car. I've had it for almost 9 months now, and didnt give me any problems.
Anyway, does anyone know a good place to buy used motors? I'm not planning to pay more than $600-700 on it. I read somewhere that this engine (1mzfe) is the same for a few models, including Camry, but which Camry? are there any differences between them? or when they say the same engine they mean they're exactly the same??
I appreciate any help...Thanks.
