Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 10:52am On May 16, 2016 |
starting with number 6. Noise is from one of the parts that roll on serpentine belt side. Will take out intake and my bet is water pump or alternator. |
Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 10:59am On May 16, 2016 |
getting to waterpump/tensioner/alternator. Not a lot of space in this design

Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 11:01am On May 16, 2016 |
finally 1hr later it's all out and culprit seems to be the water pump. Roller on tensioner is fine alternator is fine too Modified: over 2hrs later and culprit is out and confirmed. www.nairaland.com/attachments/3720333_img20160516122314_jpeg6e0126d4f706badd1ad8437edc34d98b Water pump.

7. (wrong engine oil was used in last service 20W50, but will check sparkplugs and air filter will drain and refill with mobil 1 5W30) |
Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 11:22am On May 16, 2016 |
8. Will ignore for now, inspected oil colour and looked on the inside of the intake, and I'm sure engine is not burning oil. It was most likely vapor |
Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 11:29am On May 16, 2016 |

Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 12:11pm On May 16, 2016 |
ok let's look at the scan codes a bit. Engine and transmission. P0113 IAT sensor circuit high voltage. This means the engine ecu does not know the temperature of the air coming into the intake side of the vehicle, in most cases the vehicle will store this code if the harness was removed when ignition was switched on or engine running. Iv not see one go bad in this model of honda so I will erase and watch to see if it comes back. Note it will affect fuel consumption. P1259 Vtec system Failure. This is responsible for number 10 on the list. P1259 HONDA - VTEC System Malfunction Presently oil level is normal, and there are no leaks to cause a pressure drop to the vtech sensor, so I will assume sensor is faulty. www.nairaland.com/attachments/3720245_img20160516104528_jpeg6dd9fec480b4cfbb12834d0eb35dc9a3 There it is sitting at the back of the engine. This will cause vehicle to go into limp mode. Vtech sensor out www.nairaland.com/attachments/3720381_img20160516123917_jpege05fcffc400903d6b7f8e55d5d637701 www.nairaland.com/attachments/3720382_img20160516123909_jpegb31c4b03bcfcbfa057bd7fa7d3cb5bf2 P1457 Evap control system leak. This is very straight forward, just means the fuel tank is unable to hold vacuum, I'll start by checking the tank cover and other parts of the Evap line, with a live scan I can tell if problem has been fixed. Modified: got a vtech sensor off a tokumbor engine in the market and has been installed www.nairaland.com/attachments/3727270_img20160516182355_jpeg3518c489ededa0de31fed96e04d40777 |
Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 12:16pm On May 16, 2016 |
5. Is caused by abs codes on scan results. Front left and right wheel speed sensors. Modified: this was a bit tricky, let's go over the codes again www.nairaland.com/attachments/3719766_img20160516093833_jpegda4e98564cdb9ba99cbbbb4953f043e3 Checked resistance of the abs sensors. And they ok, checked functionality on live scan and they were giving off accurate information I cleared codes and went for a drive and the codes disappeared! But when I hit the throttle hard and the front wheel slipped I noticed the abs lights came back on Now this car is an AWD but has its propeller taken out due to a noisy rear differential, in order to permanently fix the abs issues the propeller has to be returned and the rear differential replaced. The abs codes did not point to an open circuit but was confused when the front wheels slipped without the rear wheels moving. |
Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 12:19pm On May 16, 2016 |
3. Checked transmission oil colour and have test driven vehicle, but can seem to notice problem stated, will drain and refil transmission with DW1 just to be on the safe side.www.nairaland.com/attachments/3720246_img20160516111238_jpegde1f9cdddedb729c3d434663b2bbe4aa |

engine replacement lexus RX350. Reason, ruptured oil cooler lines. www.nairaland.com/attachments/3759360_images12_jpegc0589b86a2cb450e4cb39fb7273d328c www.nairaland.com/attachments/3759361_151155b_jpeg59d9761a7eb2084b132103a1638750c2 Problem: A defective design of the VVT-i oil line is a rubber hose which routes a high pressure flow of hot engine oil outside the engine block. The rubber deteriorates over time and miles and can unexpectedly break or rupture causing engine oil to rapidly drain from the engine. This can happen anywhere from about 20,000 to over 100,000 miles and can lead to very expensive repairs. Most owners report getting no warning from the from the oil or check engine lights before they realize they have a problem. Not a very smart design using rubber pipes to hold hot engine oil. |

I have a guy who goes to hunt for clean engines for me in ladipo market, I ran the vin of chassis tagged to the engine to be bought and the mileage was very reasonable. Also I ensured I got a 2GR-FE engine that didn't come with the crappy oil cooler lines. So vehicle owner is assured he will not be having this problem in the future. This is the new engine. Look carefully near where the a.c compressor should fit www.nairaland.com/attachments/3738833_img20160520wa013_jpegf82ebd159e6a3359b3136346fbc73510 This is a diagram of the old engine. www.nairaland.com/attachments/3759535_images14_jpegda01dbfbdd9365f5db2a6d38f6d43e23 Cc: kashif |
