Hi All,

I saw the words "VSS Security" engraved on the passenger windows of a 2004 Camry, what does the "VSS" mean/do for the car?

There is also a small circular "security" labelled LED on the dash-board, and the sales-man claims it may be an built-in immobalizer system/feature?

Any help to find answers to these two points, is very much appreciated
Thanks in advance.

 

Id start of with a good inspection of the brake system. Make sure the pads are wearing even. Check the thickness of thepads and rotors,Brake fluidshould befull. Rotors are in good shape ect. Im not sure what model camry you have but if you have drums then im guessing its and le. They should be check if not done so lately cleaned and adjusted. moncler down Most repair shops will do this for 60-120$ at most. It cant hurt to have the whole brake system checked while your there. However i wouldnt imagine this being the culprit of your problem, Id check the brake booster and if your feeling brave and have help bleed the calipers. More than likely if you just bought this car they replaced the pads and didnt bleed the calipers. That or the new pads might not have yet seated to the rotors. Maybe abs?

 

VSS means vehicle speed sensor, The vehicle speed sensor is used by the transmission computer or TCM to shift the unit.

Here's a vid that explain it
