I bought a Nigerian used Camry 2000 (2.2) yesterday but this morning I noticed some oil on the ground where I packed it. The car drives fine with the AC on and chilling while test driving it yesterday. A mechanic also confirmed.

Please what could be the problem

You will not even get the Nigerian used of any of the two cars for those figures.
Maybe a 2007 Nigerian used highlander at that figure sha, if it'll serve you (trouble free) for a year or two. For the Camry, forget 2014 model, for 5 million you should have your eyes repositioned on 09/10 Camry models (Nigerian used).

My 2006 Toyota Camry i4 has a shudder with the following characteristics:
1. Vibrations start at around 50m/hr or 80km/hr.
2. Happens only on light throttle.
3. It goes away if I let off the throttle or press Down and it shifts to a lower gear.
4. Only happens after 5th gear when the rpm drops below 2000.

My suspicion is a faulty torque converter for the following reasons:
1. If I turn off Over Drive, limiting the transmission to 4 gears it never vibrates.
2. I’ve dropped the pan, cleaned and actually flushed the transmission fluid with T-IV. And it made no difference; so I know it’s not a fluid issue.
3. My tires are new and balanced
4. Car runs smoothly at same speed it usually vibrates when I turn off OD.
5. My engine mounts and shafts are tight with no clucks when I engage drive or reverse.

Please gurus am I on the right track? Your contributions will be greatly appreciated! If I am on the right track, how do I know a good replacement TC?
