mine just has dead battery with only less then 80 k miles original on it 1 owner besides me lol had a carfax so i know it was original lol , the only problem it had was broken tail light and a blinker which i went to junk yard to get the lights fixed/replaced got the tail light on line now its like new cept the paint job on the left is a little messed up, -due to age and theres a dent usual with used cars- the size of a walmart shopping cart go figure and runs like a beauty haha
@ATBMr666 $700 Nearly nothing the dude didn't realize what rare kind of guy he was selling....these cars in perfect condition are worth over 3,000.... Japanese RWD luxury... this is what started lexus!
@jtreign9097 hell yeah. I got mine for 75 bucks.... because he was tired of it sitting in his front yard. mine is fully loaded and al works 209k I need to get it painted but the inside is clean ive done most of changes, and part preplacement myself so ive only put about 200 into it. I plan on keeping it forever. even if i get a new car.
@jtreign9097 You got to remember though, you have to put the lap belt on or else it won't work well. Also, I think you should see if you can try to get leather seats somewhere. Much more classy.
@Goldenrod636 yeah i always remembered to do the lap belt... its pointless without it. and leather would have been better but the car is long gone now
i am from ksa and its ok but there is electronic speed for tabloh you can put it it is better than this or contact me at my email cute_azoz@hotmail.com
That button is for the power mode on the Tranny, it has 2 modes power and normal, Power mode shifts are quicker. I have from a 86 to 92............Welcome to Florida !! Come on down
i fixed the knock. it was the a few broken studs on the torque converter... new threads and bolts and shes perfect. also 20w50 seals those annoying oil leaks,, i also did the valve cover gaskets a month ago. now she needs front/rear shocks and tranny fluid flush
As stated, the ECT stands for "Electronically Controlled Transmission" which adjusts shift points for power or economy, depending on what setting is on. I see you still have the original Toyota key. Nice! Cressida's are good cars.
@trinoma88 yes i drove it it all over the place state to state and even drove it into canada once coming from NY. the main issue was the transmission was shifting hard when i bought it it eventually died but i only lost reverse and 4th gear...lol she still drove!
@jtreign9097 wow that car is so reliable, if you can have the transmission fixed or swap that will be great and perfect car. how is ur nissan doing now? i know nissan have good engines too.
@trinoma88 i traded the toyota for the nissan. and its got a very reliable and nearly trouble free engine. the legendary VG30E 3.0L V6 known for its reliability world wide! these engines wont die at all. to prevent disappointment i will rebuild this transmission myself and keep it nearly stock so it will live a nice life
@jtreign9097 yeah nissan is known for good engines, they have an award for best engine . which motor oil do you think is the best from your experience?
@trinoma88 id have to say Mobil 1 5w30 & Pennzoil platinum 5w30. and a Purolator oil filter. but i have used oil filters like FRAM,STP,NAPA and there pretty good too
@trinoma88 When i bought my my Chrysler Sebring back in 1996 brand new the only oil i used was CAM2 Super Plus 5w30 and this oil was non synthetic and i used a fram oil filter along with fram air filters. i never had a problem.. engine was a Mitsubishi V6 thats why! i do recommend using synthetic motor oil as most new cars now require it. and sometimes you can have your warranty voided if you us non synthetic oil
RUST BUCKET! The motors in these cars will run forever but the body will rust away like hell that's why practically none are on the road! I'm quite surprised by the shape of this Cressida, I never see ANY at all. Clean this car up, rust proof it, and then restore it. This car is a future classic.
was a garaged car in Florida it has been rust proofed aug, 93 and Nov 02. i give the suspension a 7 out of ten its nearly perfect no frame rot just minor spots on my driver fender no issue. i love the car its fast its boxy and alot of room in the trunk and inside the car
she is still dirty from sitting under a tree for 2 years. previous owner never washed it. the dirt will come right off. i will wash and wax and scrub the dirt ff...the only leak it has is a major valve cover leak... ordered some gaskets from toyota dealer so im waiting tomorrow to sealer her up
Ah cool at least its only the valve cover gasket.. easiest gasket to replace. My metro has a very tiny leak at the valve cover.. just wet around the gasket
I have an 03 Camry and it's owner manual is similar to yours. Their is a seperate maintenance mnaul. I don't have lighting on the floor, but there is lighting in the glove box.
TEMS is electronic shock absorber control, ETC is a power shift mode (and a normal mode) which lowers shift points for better acceleration at the expense of gas mileage.
Nice man, too bad ya won't be movin ta Florida anytime soon, but I understand, the economy sucks for alotta people & speakin of the Voyager braking down my friend 2000 Concorde outta nowhere died on him today & wouldn't restart, it would barley turn over but no go.. it has the 2.7L so yea.....
Cool. Hope you enjoy your new car. Although I really miss the sebring. My sebring is down right now but hoping to get her running soon. Good luck with your journey.

ninendowii2000 6 months ago
thats because they replaced the cressida with the Camry ,
they used the body for earlier camerys but then discoinued it in the us some time in the late 90s they went to new body style,
read it up on wikipedia , lexus took over the body of the cressida or some stuff like that which is also now no more so ,
the cressida has a good darn history ,

Once you get the leaks fixed throw some polish on that worn out paint and bring it back to life.
