Yes I sometimes remove the two seats at the rear when I need to move some large objects that the trunk can not contain, but sometimes the flashing stops. pls what simple method can I use to rectify this issue tnx in advance.

He is talking about the passenger seat, that thing has a mind of its own. Notice when you seat at the edge the light will stop blinking. Just leave it or find someone to fix it or check the wire

possible causes

smileyFaulty Vehicle Speed Sensor
smileyVehicle speed sensor harness or connectors is open or shorted
smileyVehicle speed sensor circuit poor electrical connection
smileyFaulty Engine Control Module (ECM)

The P0500 code is very common on the Toyota Tacoma, Toyota Yaris, Toyota Camry, Toyota Tundra, Toyota RAV-4. Before replacing the sensor you should try cleaning the sensor gear and erasing the code. If the light comes back you may have to replace the sensor.

possible symptoms

Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light) Speedometer may not work properly Transmission shifting problem

I have a Toyota Corolla 2005 car. But I noticed the fuel consumption is not normal. Moreover, later I discovered that the indomie of the car has been removed.
I also learnt that the car has two indomie. Middle and front-near the engine. My question is this: does the indomie really conserve fuel consumption?
Last week Saturday, a friend took me to his mechanic, and eventually my exhaust was removed and stuffed with sth inside and the weider, did some weidering, although I observed reduction in fuel consumption, but am still not impressed because the engine side-front is still left untouched. Nothing was fixed there.

You act as if you never know what you did to me?

You complained you had a serious issue last year, you called me. I told you my diagnostic fees NGN5,000 non negotiable. You came to my house. Scanned your car, I explained to you what to do. You smiled and was happy. I saw you off to my estate gate, you produced a wrinkled dirty worn out 500 naira note, and told me its what you had. I told you we never agreed on this, why did you want to start this, you said its what you got and when you came back for repair you'd settle me. You even swore you're a Moderator of many sections and a lawyer and you can't defraud me (I knew you won't come back) I took the note from you, you zoomed off thinking youve won your game, i gave to a begger that 500naira note.
Here you are forming innocent.

Hope you see you've spent more than that. And you'd spend more than the 5,000.

Karma is a blissful concubine.
Yeah, if you like ban me 200years

Hello all,
take a look at my mechanic's quote for parts for my Rav4 2003 version.

Shocks absorber 40k,
stab linkage 14k,
stabilizer rod 18k,
ball joint 25k

Can you confirm these prices for me?

Also, what could cause a stabilizer rod to break into two. This has happened twice to my car.

Prof Gazzuzz.
Please I need your insight.
My toyota Avalon engine shuts down anytime i try reversing out of my compound.
I have to accelerate quickly to make it stay long enough to drive out and then it shuts down again.
it seems to happen when climbing slopes and when the engine is started cold. cos it drives smoothly when I am out and about.
my gate entrance has a slope though.

Thanks for your time in advance
