Bolts!
 
These bolts are so confusing. My daughter gave me her 07 TC. She didn't register so she didn't know about the oil consumption problem. Neither did I until after my first mechanic went to jail before he could reinstall rebuilt. The problem with this horrible mechanic was he didnt mark the bolts. I'm not a mechanic or DIY and I knew enough to do that. While we were waiting on block to be done he dismantled his Gallant. Now the bolts are all mixed up. The motor is ready to hook up to manual transmission then it's tie rod ends radiator fan hose's headlights hood front brakes tires belts and misc. Have searched and searched for repair manual. Keep getting bad links. Can anyone tell me about the bolts? Do they have a #?, what is the size or send me a pic of the bolts to hook up trans and motor? I have put more money in this car than its worth but it's too late to pull out now. I live in TX. I'm just trying to get the car finished So I can drive to CO to see my dying father for prob the last time. Have had friends helping since but no one can figure out what bolts go where. I'm a female and almost 60. I don't have a lot of money. Can't find a repair manual. I found one a few months ago but they wanted over $300. Ridiculously. I bought a Haynes Camry book which has same motor but still nothing to determine the bolt. Also Does anyone know if I can recover my losses without going to small claims court? I read the oil consumption recall campaign ended in 2015.

CJ,
PM me your email and I can send the repair manual for the 2005 tC. Should work just fine. It's 51MB so I may have to send it in sections at a time.

Hello!! I am having the same issue, my brother tore the car apart and I can not for the life of me, figure out which bolts go where.. I downloaded the Emanual and I'm honestly still having trouble, do you still have that info by chance?
