My corolla 2005 with switch off when I moved the gear to drive.

When I press the throttle down, then quickly move the gear to drive , I will start moving.

The car also turn off when I slow down in traffic.

Any possible solutions to this?

Guys, where can I get very good transmission torque converter and transmission oil pump for 2010 es350? I've searched the whole of abuja for it but can't find it. My transmission is throwing up transmission fluid and the gear guy said it's the pump and torque converter that is bad. Please how do I source for a good one? I need it urgently and I'm in abuja currently. My car has been grounded for a week now

Subject: Issues with My Car - Need Diagnosis and Repair

Car Type: 2007 Toyota Camry, 4 Plug Engine

I am reaching out regarding some concerning issues I've been experiencing with my car recently. I believe there may be multiple underlying problems contributing to its current state, and I would greatly appreciate your expertise in diagnosing and addressing these issues.

Here are the symptoms I've observed:

Reduced Coolant: The coolant seems to be drying off as I constantly need to refill and there is no visible leak

White Smoke: White smoke comes out of the exhaust

After driving for some time, the coolant in the reservoir tank starts to 'boil' and pour out, I am aware that is due to air entering the coolant

I bringing this here because the first mechanic I called adviced to change the Engine Gasket which required me to re-surface the engine, the Gasket was changed but the issue still persists

The second mechanic I got was quoting 300,000 for me (almost the cost of a new engine)

Given these symptoms, I understand that pinpointing the exact cause of the issues may require a comprehensive inspection and diagnostic process. However, can someone here point me in the right direction on where I need to focus on?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

If you are in Abuja, connect with kingreign and thank me later

Replace complete transmission

That is a very difficult decision to make. The transmission shifts very well, in fact, I only escalated this because of the oil leak. Also the transmission is 2m as of today. Isn't that an overkill?

TOYOTAL VENZA 2011 full option, As I was coming from work yesterday I noticed some warning signs few minutes passing some pothole my brake, AWD, ABS,VSC, and slip light came on. I pulled over and checked my parking break to make sure I hadn't hit it by mistake, it was off. But this morning everything was clear by itself but once I move the car maybe few minutes the light will come up again. My break is working fine. I think I need to clean my ABS sensor and check my stop break light.

Please I need help.
My 2000 Toyota Camry won't go into gear, when you shift it will indicate drive or reverse but won't move, no matter how much you rev it.

Sometimes it will pick and then disengage immediately

I drive a 2009 Toyota camry.

I noticed that my brake light is always on anytime I turned on my full light when I am driving at night.

Please, how do I fix this.
