Someone from the MR2 board said the problem is likely to be the wheel bearing and hub.

So now the car’s at Marina Del Rey Toyota being diagnosed. I asked for a preliminary quote for repairs if the problem was indeed the bearing and hub, and they said that it would be around $450. I know I can order parts from Jay Marks Toyota for a lower price than Marina Del Rey, and considering that I’d also like to get the front trunk prop latch, the engine cover prop latch, and possibly some other OEM parts, I can do this all at the same time.

Marina Del Rey also quoted me $385 for installing an ACT clutch; this is around the same price as Marina Pit Stop, so I think I’ll let them do it. I’ll see if I can get any kind of discount for doing both jobs at the same time.

The clutch is on its way from Florida.

My wheels and tires are in Marina Del Rey at Federal Express. They’ll try another delivery tomorrow.

I still have to order brake pads, urethane, speed bleeders, and a muffler. Maybe I’ll order a set of motor mounts from Jay Marks so that I can drive the car around while the urethane is solidifying.
