I think my toyota Camry 2005 V6 3.3 engine consumes fuel. The car consumes an average of 48 litres for a 210 miles. No check engine light on. No issue with engine. I am just concerned about the fuel cost.
PLEASE HELP

My 2000 xls Avalon goes off while on reverse especially on slanting ground levels e.g backing out from the gate, the idle point you check both sides of the road to ensure coast is clear prior to wheeling full to left or right. Also noticed some kind of vibrations . What could be the cause? I was advised to clean the plugs and nozzles, what do you think??

If. It increases when you buy fuel and is always decreasing when car is in usage. A faulty Guage is not hard to spot. Will remain stagnant even after refilling or tank nearing empty.
I am also experiencing similar issue with my Toyota sienna 2000 model. it has been performing well but of late the fuel indicator will remain or fluctuate between half tank and zero level even when my tank is fuel filled. I have changed the fuel gauge close to the fuel pump inside the tank two times but the problem still persist. My auto electrician said the problem might be from the fuel meter on the dash board, that it might be the culprit since we have changed the fuel gauge twice.
Gurus in the house kindly pls help me out cause it is so frustrating driving without been able to monitor the quantity of liters in the car. thanking you for your response(s)

So sorry about today, its like that with me most days. I sincerly was about to send you a message, but each time I tried a call came in, and it lasted so long I forgot the last thing I was about to do.

For your vehicles issues, I will look at it @ no cost, unfortunately it will be a one time thing as I do not support repairs of vehicles older than 2003.

My address is and has always been in my signature.

Goodevening Oga Gazzuzz. My friend is looking to buy a 2005 Toyota Avensis (Nigerian used). The car is located around ogba. I really don't have an idea on the maintenance of an Avensis and how durable the car is. Please, I will like to an advice from you and also ask if we can get you to help scan the vehicle when he is ready for inspection. Thanks

Are there visible external signs of leakage?
Such as oil stain on the floor where you park or within the engine bay?
Re: Thread For Toyota Users And Lovers by jossytech(m): 9:35am On Nov 22, 2017

Confirm which seal it is, there's an oil seal between engine and transmission, if it's leaking, then the only remedy is taking out one of engine and transmission...

No, it's not difficult to maintain. Parts are in high demand, so prices are a little above average expectation but the parts are reliable. Overall Corolla is a good car.

I'm using a Toyota corolla sports 2013 for three years now, Im now experiencing smoke at the tail end and oil shortage weekly without leakage . I was adviced to get a new engine. My question is there any way around this or I must change the engine. If the latter is the case, how much can I get a good engine. The AC and gear box are perfectly OK
