Transmission Problem With Toyota Camry 08 by stevebankz(m): 11:13pm On Jan 10
My car is a 07/08 Toyota Camry V6 , with a 22 pin gearbox , i first noticed that my reverse was jerking and will eventually off whenever i try to reverse . A computer scan was done , plugs were checked , and none was the issue , then my mechanic suggested we visit a gear box specialist who eventually charged me over 250k to change the valve body , pump and one other item I have forgotten, but then after all that, the gear performed fairly okay with the reverse working , but after a few weeks, the movement became so dull and the movement become so slow and doesn’t select fine .

Am actually tired and frustrated on trying to fix anything again, which leaves me with considering changing the entire gearbox , please experts here, what would you suggest I do and that would work ?
Also I noticed my gear doesn’t enter into S anymore , Only P, N , R, D , because my car has S in the gear selection, please advice me what I can do

Thank you

Buy new tokunbo direct gear box. Your gearbox is U660E and a bit expensive around 500k or so. But when fixing they must be extremely careful cause dirt is the major killer of that transmission which is introduced when doing shaft or suspension work.

OP is better to just buy another gear box.

Buy another gearbox. But ensure you are buying toks. You can still sell that ur old one for a little change.

My car has been at home now for 2 weeks. After using oando dextron 2.it suddenly started acting funny.delays on reverse for like 5secs. I later realised the drain bolt was loose and threads worn out.so I loose some amount of oil daily without knowing .making my gear to malfunction on reverse.not till I parked the car and travelled when I came back.let me go out .the car refused to pick on reverse.when I guaged the oil..it was almost on the last dipstick level. I just abandoned it till I have money to buy original type t4 oil. No more aondo dextron 2 and 3.they are all fake oils.evem the toyota type t4.im still thinking where I will see original to buy.

Why would you use dexron 2. That fluid is for power steering. Most likely, you will have to buy a new gear box.

I felt it was for gear since they wrote gear and power steering. Nope the gear is still working.i just have a worn bolt drain .and i removed it a week ago so all the oil can drain out.remains the pan to open it. Ive been using oando for like 2years since i got tired of buying fake t4 toyota oil. I never knew dextron 2 and 3 was for power steering.tho sometimes the gear would raise for like 5secs before it picks cos the oul was dripping from the bolt without mechanic telling me that the gear drain bolt was weak. I will pour in the 4litres once i get the original toyota oil. Not the fakes selling for 15 to 25k..both green can and red can.they are all fake oil.

Okay, thank you so much for this information, I casually asked a dealer about my gearbox price and I was told it’s 22pin and cost about 900k-1m naira. is this the same gear box
