On a long hot drive 300 miles just before I got there to collect my stranded daughter under load the warning light came on went off not under load but the last 5 miles was not sure if we would make it. 

2000 VVTi CELICA 190,000

Any advice welcome but specifically

COST

POSSIBILE PROBLEMS

IS IT WORTH FIXING

Which warning light?.

A VVTi that has has covered 190k has done very, very well. Many have died having suffered the "death rattle" due to the inherent oil burning issue.
