Celica Forums General Discussion General Celica's repair manual

Hello, I'm new here, I'm from Lithuania.
Some days ago I brought a 2000 Celica GTS with broken engine in USA, so she is on a way to Lithuania now. I will change engine, becose my celi has only half of it
So I need a repair manual to know how to install corectly engine and to know what parts I am missing. Maybe you know from where I can download it? I'll be very grateful.
Sorry for mistakes

Thanks for link

And some other question.
What are the most frequent problems with VVTLi engines? Is this engine reliable? What are the main symptoms that lifting is not working if I drive this car first time?

Its a very good car. You need to change your lift bolts every so often. there shouldnt be many problems.

Im not sure of the symptoms of lift not occuring.


Stay at this site because its the best celica site out there.

How often do I need to change them? Where I can get them? Aproximately how much does they cost? , I'm not very green in these things so can I change them by myself? Will the computer diagnostics show some errors if I need to change lift bolts, or lift is not working properly? Can you tell me more about lift bolts, what are their purpose and what happens when they brokes?
