My camry tries to stop when I stop on a signal. But when I push the gas, it stops doing that and runs as normal.
Also when I drive fast the car pushes/pulls me and the RPM needle comes down. I.E if I am going on 3000Rpm the needle suddenly goes down to 2000rpm. It used to happen once, but has now turned out to be a regular problem.
I dont know which part to change, or what should I say to the mechanic. Coz if I go to him he would show me list of items to change.
Please help me out.

Hi muddu,

The first part of your description most probably is the idling system fault. Give the throttle body and IAC a good cleanup with carb cleaner and problem should go away.

The second part is confusing. When gears upshift, the rpm would be lowered, so what is wrong?
