Good evening everyone
I am newbie here and I came here because I am facing some issues My Lexus Es300 2003 model went for check up brake pads and bushing and arm rest change and I also complained to my Mech that the car jerks when I put it In reverse he then told me it is an issues from the drive shaft he fixed everything that day but it still jerks then he told me it is the shaft cup . I took it the next day he told me it has to cool then I left the shop by evening he fixed it already. I then took the car from the Mech to go get fuel since I was happy everything is fine back… I got fuel and then the car won’t change gear it was just accelerating .
The next day a gear master came with some wires attached to a plug and was doing some stuffs and making clicking sounds with the battery but it is still the same thing now it moves sometimes with the 1st gear but once I apply the brake and I try to move I will have to take it to neutral and then back to drive before it moves … I am really worried that my gear isn’t damaged because I don’t have much at the moment ..
pls anyone who can educate me about what’s happening I don’t want to keep spending money on the wrong thing

Thanks

Boss I greet you all

My dash board shows the below image with R. I took it to one rewire he seemed clueless about it A man told me it was reverse light bulb and noticed the bulbs were burnt. We replaced the bulbs on both sides and it went off and the reverse light worked.

I observed the dashboard this evening and the image was back and the two reverse light not working.

What is destroying the reverse light bulbs at the same time because I'm thinking changing bulbs again may get burn like the previous one. Car is Toyota Camry. Thanks GazuZz

Elboki109:

Thanks sir... I just scanned my car now... This is the code that popped up sir

GAZZUZZ:


Hope they have not fingered your catalyst.

Meanwhile this scanner cannot capture all the codes

GAZZUZZ:


It just means you have a burnt bulb. Could be in front or rear so check all bulbs,
Also the system was designed to detect failing tungsten bulbs by noting their resistance and displaying that error when it fails, BUT if you have installed LED bulbs you will always have that error as their resistance doe not correspond to what the system was designed to look for.

9icetoo:

You have your tpms light on.

Make sure your tyre pressures are all above 32 psi. Do not exceed 36 psi.
Your vsc light is one. It could be related to the TPMS light or the check engine light that is on.

Scan the car to know the related code.

The scan will also reveal why your check engine light is on.

The airbag light is on probably because you haven't belted up.

Post codes here and you will enjoy the help of so many knowledgeable folks here.

GAZZUZZ:


Replace the gearbox

Happened to me, I overhaul my 2AZ engine and with new oil pump but it failed, even buy top engine still failed, so I bought half and top Engine (benjor) and I am flexing till today, if u would want to enjoy the car, buy a new engine, full or half and top....

dru23:


Well when it comes to things like sensors . I will advice brand new ones .

Early this year I shipped 2 a/c compressor for my customers.

But this is my advice and it is up to the customer to decide


Ps. I will loading up a tokunbo Sienna soon 2008 model.... If u have any customers needing 1 let me know ..

Bizzyliss:

Healthquest:

I heard the half engine is around 380k, how truth is ds and if I can get a reliable plug here

Etizz:


Na dem oga GAZZUZ get link regards the sure plug....I actually bought half and top, that's an engine without alternator, power steering, compressor, ETC because I have those on my old engine and I bought mine 300k..

I cant get this in Port Harcourt. They are telling me 600k for half n top.

I wanted to buy new crankshaft,oil pump, main bearing and metal instead because the price for half n top here in port Harcourt too cost

Bizzyliss:

Etizz:


Thanks bro, I just learnt something....our local mechanic always use the word ''half & top"...I appreciate

hello contributors
I have a problem with an rx300 that I help a lady to drive... it hesitates on cold start from lower rpm but it runs okay when moving... so I took it to a mechanic because I thought it was a spark plug problem .. he said it isn't... he cleaned the throttle body... yet problem still persists... but I still manage it like I just let it idle for a few minutes before taking off.... but recently I has gotten worse even when the engine is hot... it hesitates from lower rpm... what might be the problem? cc gazzus
