GAZZUZZ:


And you want to import parts wink



Uncle take the head to a machine shop for grinding (or better still contact me for a head that has never overheated) buy a graphite head gasket (perish the idea of metal gasket) every other seal and gasket is available original in the market. The headbolts on paper are not to be reused , but guess what? Every one does here and in obodo! Just pray your block does not have strip bolt syndrome if you do (I have a block for sale) cheesy

Thanks Oga mi. I guess I'll just contact you later for the parts.

Good evening gurus in the house
I observed that my odometer is static, my brake light and ABS goes on and off while driving, the MPH is not working ultimately. This happens after driving 10 to 15 minutes.

How do I correct this? One of the electrician I contacted said it has to do ABS module.
Oga in house please I need your help �
The car is Toyota Camry 2010
Happy New year to you all.

I observed my car drags or lags when accelerating. Subsequently, the CEL came on.

Upon scanning, I got P0305 (Cylinder 5 misfire).

Please what could be the cause?

It is abs related.

Start with harness, socket, fuses and relays before jumping to replace the module .

One, the Nigerian stereotype
Also, because it’s usually abused by people with bad maintenance culture and the car hardly forgives for that.

Here’s a meticulously owned one here

the spark plug for cylinder 5 is damaged or the ignition coil for cylinder 5 is damaged...
you will have to run tests to determine what the main culprit is....

Several people here would tell you how the Camry is an empty and boring vehicle, and for "Yahoo boys", and it's only common because of bandwagon effect, and that the Accord is the most magnificent vehicle ever.

Don't believe the hype.

It's an electrical problem, you need a very good electrician to fix it. I had similar issues before
Jamie1000:
Hello guys. I'm about to make a big decision. I'm considering changing my Gear box. But, I want to be sure, that is the problem. Please, I need your advice. My Camry 2.4 gear is slogish in acceleration. The gears doesn't change as fast as possible from 1-3. Sometimes climbing even a small hill is an issue. Is thier anything I can check. Fuel pump, filters, nozzles are all ok. Even when on high speed, once thiers an incline hill, I notice the significant deceleration and and I feel the the rpm dropping even when pressing against the gas pedal. And attempt to force results in a loud noice from exhaust and a bad smell from the hood with no much acceleration but high rpm. In a level ground or down the the hill, it's faster but, still dragss in the first two gears. Please, advice me.
