Good morning guys, For few days now, I noticed my Camry fails to start once in the morning unlike before. It now starts on switching key for second attempt. Jerks often on pressing gas pedal causing misfiring. I've changed fuel filter, spark plugs and ignition test works fine. The problem still persist. This resulted into bad fuel economy. Mechanic suggests I bring it back for injector cleaning and fuel pump replacement today. Kindly advice on possible cause and remedy pls. Thanks.

your oil guage should be between the lower and upper mark, but closer to the upper mark than the lower mark. The right reading can only be gotten when engine is cold

Greetings,

I just scanned my Camry 09 and it came up with P0606 and P0138 DTCs. Can the P0138 sensor issue make MIL come on and off intermittently? Or could go of good about 4 days, stay on for 2 weeks.

Also, how do I resolve the P0606 without changing the brain box?

Go under the vehicle , the O2 sensor wire harness is frayed and currently causing an intermittent closed circuit. Tape it up and both problems will go away.

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by proclinician: 8:54pm On Oct 08, 2020
Today, i opened my hood to check my fluid levels as I'll be traveling tomorrow. Suddenly the coolant is gone, nothing in the reservoir. I opened radiator cap, nothing. Car hasn't been driven since Monday and before now I always have coolant level at max in the plastic reservoir. Car has no history of overheating, the temp gauge has never gone up past the middle. The fan settings or cooling system is factory setting. What could be the culprit pls? Since the time I saw it at max to now that it's zero, the car has never been in motion for more than 20 mins. K don't drive the car extensively

Go to a panel beater to help you mould it and you paint it after. Same way I did mine
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Experience4u(m): 12:27pm On Oct 09, 2020
Like I promised to revert back, the issue was from a bad MAF. It was changed and the car is back to shape. Thanks for your advice sir

Look for a large air leak between throttle body to airflow meter.
