2000 Toyota Celica GT-S review from North America
"Not true to Toyota's reputation of reliablity"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light on.
Replaced injectors.
Replaced computer.
Hesitation in the morning.
Poor engine performance.
General comments?
Oh my God, in what situation I have put myself in, by buying the Toyota Celica. I have a Corolla from 1990, it's still running and the engines works great. I leave many new cars eating dust.
So I bought this Celica, and I'm having the same problem that everybody here is. The hesitations in the morning. The increase and decrease drastically of RPM. Really poor performance. Check engine light on constantly.
Went to fix the check engine light, and apparently there is a bulletin to fix the injectors and computer. I don't have that money! I'd rather sell it and buy another car. What a disappointment, because I love the car, it's fun to drive, and I thought it would be as good as my Corolla.
