Dozieson:OK. Thank you. It happened on my way back from the mechanic yesterday. I got home and just parked it, I've not started or moved the car since then |

Dear car doctor, I'm a novice and would like to know what exactly is meant by "automatic gearbox fibre"? I keep hearing the mention of "fibre is burnt"; "is the fibre that is bad", what exactly is this "fibre" of a thing in an automatic transmission (please include photos if possible)? Thank you auto-doctor �� 1 Like |

Dear Car Doctor, My kid brother's Camry 2005 has gear issues, it does not go into reverse. Other gear positions works nicely. Its a 4plug and its a 13pin. The engine was ringed months ago when it 'knocked'. This is a car we bought fresh Tokunboh from a dealer in June last year oooo. Please what can be done about the gear not going into reverse? |

inikamoze: Issue. What gear oil did you top up with after ringing the engine? |

I am having a suspected transmission issue with my 2007 Lexus ES 350 and I'm in need of a reliable gear expert in Abeokuta. This is a summary of the problem: 1. I had an accident in April with the car where in order to avoid a careless driver, I swerved hard, lost control and hit the driver's tyre/side on the median kerbs on Lagos Ibadan expressway. Brake disc broke and shaft pulled out. It was replaced immediately by the nearest mechanic to the accident scene. Further repairs were done gradually. 2. In June/July, I had a mechanic check the car in Ilorin to fix all the noise on the front tires. He changed linkages, ball joints and greased the shaft cup which was low on grease. 3. After he fixed it, I traveled the next day, but the car had a lot of unusual vibrations, especially one gentle and repeated vibrations that comes once in a while. Vibration is usually noticed between 40 and 100Km/hr. Mechanics tried to trace the vibrations but couldn't get it. In the process of tracing the vibrations, the shaft was suspected and it was cleaned twice. Once it was 'packed' with rubber and my mechanic in Ilorin faulted the rubber packing and removed it and cleaned thoroughly. 4. In September, I noticed something unusual in the transmission, there was always a delay when switching from gear 2 to gear 3. It wasn't frequent and most times, mechanics didn't notice it during test drive. During inspection, it was noticed that the gearoil sump had hit something and was deformed. Mechanic asked me to drop the car to allow it cool before working on the sump to beat it back to shape. He did this and changed the oil. Please note that I have always used original Toyota WS gear oil for this car, never compromised. He topped with 4 litres oil which he claimed was sufficient. 5. I got back to Ilorin and realized that the problem wasn't solved, there was still a delay switching from gear 2 to 3. I had it scanned by someone who noticed an error, I checked it online, it was something about solenoid which affects the switch from gear 2 to 3, but the guy cleared the error without saving them. I took it to another gear specialist in Ilorin, he had it scanned but the scan turned out to be okay. Nothing was wrong with the gear and engine. He only advised me to top the gear oil with 2 litres which I did before traveling back to Abeokuta. 6. I traveled back to Abeokuta and the problem was still there, at some point when I was almost in Abeokuta, the car had difficulty moving and was vibrating, I parked, turned off the engine, turned it back on after a few seconds and everything was fine, I continued my journey, but with the transmission delays. The car is currently in Abeokuta, working, but with the transmission delay. I don't want to travel with it anymore and I don't want to have any trial and error done by just any mechanic. I need trusted hands to check it here in Abeokuta. I don't want to risk driving it down to Lagos. Please I need a trusted hand that can work on the car and save me from a transmission replacement. |

Culprit has been identified. We will have to repair/ replace it at Ladipo. Mexhanic will take otvthere tomorrow. How much does this cost? And based on experience, does the replacement/repair usually last? Mecoy:

Your car problem is vacuum leaks somewhere on the purge valve lines or intake valve leaks |

Good evening. Please, I have problem with my car, an automatic Toyota Corolla 2006 (so-called bank's car). It appears to be a transmission issue. The engine starts without any problem but when I put it into drive, it doesn't move even though reverse works fine. D, 2 and L don't work but R works. |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by Dozieson(m): 9:06pm On Dec 22, 2022 |
Orkeven: Scan |

The original T4 is expensive is there any other gearoil one can use for a Toyota sienna 2005 model? iyisco2001: |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by aieromon(m): 8:45am On May 26, 2023 |
chike4all033: Don't joke with your transmission. The equivalent is Dexron VI which is equally expensive. |

Reverse gear of 2012 AWD highlander failed, no error codes using toyota techstream diagnostics, oil level is ok. Started without warning, car was sluggish in reverse, then stopped moving at all in reverse gear. The gearbox was changed some months back. What could be the issue |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by enigmatique(m): 12:08am On Jun 19, 2023 |
Hello. Thank you for your fantastic work here. I own a Honda EOD and changed its gearbox some time in February. Some time in May, I made the mistake of trying to travel with it without checking its gear oil level. The car gave me issues during the trip, but after I added about 2 liters of transmission oil, it started working properly I had to turn back to Lagos that night due to traffic though. When I returned to Lagos I went to service the car and used Holts Transmission oil to replace the old one (which had developed a smell during that failed trip). Now recently I have noticed that the gear doesn't always click into reverse on my first try. Some times it clicks in one try but a lot of times I'll have to take it to another gear and bring it back to R before it clicks. What's the problem? Is it a gear switch somewhere or something else? |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by Dozieson(m): 5:12am On Jun 19, 2023 |
enigmatique: You have used a wrong oil |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by enigmatique(m): 4:02pm On Jun 19, 2023 |
Dozieson:I see. Any examples of the right oil(s)? |

Dozieson: Bro, Camry 03 10pin Gears 1-3 enter well though occasionally jerk slightly. 4 doesn’t enter. Cars revs higher instead of entering 4. I haven’t scanned yet. Please what could be wrong. |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by Dozieson(m): 6:40am On Jun 21, 2023 |
nymphomaniac: What oil is in the gear? Is the oil guage? What is the colour? Scan could help reveal more details |

SpaceAngel: Take it for diagnosis |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by Kashif(m): 8:11pm On Jun 22, 2023 |
nymphomaniac: Does it rev freely in 4 or doesn't get in at all? With a good scanner, see if 4th is commanded at all. If the computer is not commanding 4th, the issue is not in the box. If it is (which is unlikely) the issue is in the box. |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by nymphomaniac(m): 9:56pm On Jun 22, 2023 |
Kashif:thank you. I’ll scan this weekend. It doesn’t enter 4 at all. It just keeps revving past 2k Into 3k and 3.5k |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by Kashif(m): 6:50am On Jun 23, 2023 |
nymphomaniac: What I asked you to check can't be found while scanning. It can only be found in live data. There, you (I mean the technician) will see what is going on in real time. It's important to see what the computer (brainbox) is telling the gearbox to do. While it's revving into 3K, does the vehicle have movement or just the engine revving? Note that a position sensor can cause your vehicle to not upshift past 3rd gear. |

Where is car doctor in Lagos? |
Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by akefemi: 6:28am On Jun 28, 2023 |
Good morning, my car odometer and fuel gauge stopped working also it finds it hard to change gear. On scanning it gave p0500 error. I want to know where the sensor is located because they are two. |
