Toyota Avalon Rattling Noise During Acceleration by BlackJo(m): 3:23pm On Dec 27, 2016
Hi guys.. .
I need some serious help from everyone or anyone who's experienced this....
Car in question is a 2002 Toyota avalon , it rattles in the engine bay or exhaust manifold (not sure again) whenever I throttle and I've tried several fixes, still no solution.
By the way, my fuel consumption is over the roof irrespective of driving pattern.
Anyone... .. help o

Are you sure its not your linkage making that noise? I seriously suspect your linkage due to the age of the car

Scan Post codes. Timing might be over advanced. Knock sensors might be defective. Temp might be over 100deg centigrade.

OP, follow Oga Gazzuz advice and also prepare your mind for an engine change as the worse case scenario.

Not saying that this is what it is, but if it were my car I would pay attention to the catalytic converter.

When it's damaged and breaks up then it may clang around in there as well as chocking the exhaust port and cause lower than normal MPG.

Replace your catalytic converters. Though they may not have broken up or disintegrated, they may be blocked causing restricted flow of exhaust gas. Exhaust feedback to the crank case would result in poor fuel detonation hence the "pinking" sound and high fuel consumption.

Thanks guys. .... really grateful for the quick responses.

I just changed all four shocks and linkages, although I knew the linkage wasn't the culprit. but this puts it off suspicion.
I did have the check engine light initially which when scanned brought up knock sensor issues which was fixed for me... so knock sensors off suspicion. ..
now the check engine light is back on and yes....catalyst issues( which I haven't fixed)....

My Mechanic said my thermostat was bad, so he removed it and when I asked he go get another one, he was like. . bros no need. .. original no dey market, make we leave am like that. so he connected by fan to start up on ignition since there was nothing to regulate it again..... hope I wasn't mugued undecided

If you love yourself, better tell that kazeem of a mechanic of yours to install that thermostat he removed. Do you have any idea what that single thing does.

Maybe he's even sold it to one big man who will pay handsomely for it as he be say original no dey market.

You shouldn't leave Kazeems like that to work on your car without supervision. Always collect components they tell you is bad and you ain't sure of. Just collect it take it home.
