why not drive into a petrol station an do an oil change? Engine replacements are not friendly now o!
Re: ASK GAZZUZZ by igehkc(m): 11:08am On Apr 18, 2017
Oga Gazzuzz,

I recently got a new engine on my 2010 Camry. It now has this "growling" sound (with some vibrations) when I accelerate/rev it. I noticed the same on my friends 2007 camry that had an engine replacement.The performance of the engine is great though. Can u help give an insight as to what the cause of this sound/vibration is?

Oga gazzuzz thanks for the work you're doing here. Please I need your advice. I'm in trying to make a choice between two cars.
They are both fairly used EOD. The first is a 2004 v6 and the other is a 2003 4 cylinder model(not EX).
They are both in good condition but the v6 is cleaner with about 40k higher mileage (133 vs 185). The A/C of d 03 ain't working though they claim it's just a gas refill. Got a mechanic to check them and he says they are both good.

Also, 03 model is 50k cheaper than the v6 (1.150 vs. 1.2). I'm in a dilemma between the two. I've been hearing of issues associated with the v6 model coupled with its higher fuel consumption. This would be my first car and I'm hoping I get it right.

There's a recommended mileage at which oils should be changed.
If you are changing all the time, it is leaking . . cos it's a closed system
if it isn't leaking . then you are wasting money unnecessarily

Oga Gazzuzz,

Had a problem with my EOD over the weekend.

Wanted to do some body work and painting. Gave the car to the panel beater who worked on it on Friday and Saturday.

After the Saturday work, the panel beater wanted to return the car to my compound and in the process, the key got stuck in the ignition.

A rewire was called and after trying several things, he was able to remove the key. However, the car is not starting again despite the fact that all functions/ signs are coming up from the dashboard. The car is just rolling but not starting as if the security is active.

The rewire had to remove the ignition and take it to people that reset keys. after resetting, the problem still persist. The car is not starting.

Another person was called with diagnistic machine but after plugging it in, he said the machine is not communicating with the car.

They are planning to remove the brain box and ignition so as to reset the car from another Honda EOD Car.

Please what can be the problem? Also, should I allow them to remove the brain box.

Your urgent response will be appreciated

Growling sounds are not very friendly sounds, it signifies a problem. please give more info on engine size. (v6 or 4cyl)

My isssue with the V6 accord 2004 is its transmission< failure is quite high, and when it happens replacement cost is almost 3 times the cost of a 4cylinder. also a v6 is prone to more suspension issues on poor road conditions over a long period of time due to its weight.

i would personally buy a 4cylinder any day.

Oil light issue: after my engine knocked and crackshaft and metal, 4 x pisting and rings, 2 x camp shaft replaced. The oil light always come up whenever the engine is on. But when you truttle it, the oil light goes of. I have change the oil switch and the oil pump, but this problem persist.
I still notice some noise from the engine when the car is being tuttled.

Please what could be reponsible for these??

Sounds like an immobilizer issue. There is a green key light that comes on then off when the key is inserted. Does it flash continuesly or stays on or comes on and go off?

Check engine ecu fuse, if it is burnt have it replaced.

tap water is ideally not coolant for an engine though it is widely used as such. Engine coolant is a water based liquid, it has certain properties which ordinary tap water does not have

1. ability to lubricate moving parts like the water pump
2. does not boil at 100 degrees centigrade but at slightly higher temperatures
3. anti corrosive properties that ensure the coolant passages remain clean.
4. dye to determine its presence
5. ability to absorb heat quicker than water
