Good morning car gurus,
Last week I serviced my Camry 05 with Castrol oil 5w30 (picture attached). Since I serviced it I noticed the maintenance required light flashes and goes off but this morning I noticed it doesn't flash again rather just steady.

What could be the cause and possible solution as this has never happened before.

Please help I decided to just parked somewhere as I don't know what next to do.

My toyota corolla 2010 automatic started popping out of transmission during motion. Work was done on it before and it stopped but it has started again. The technicians refused to tell me exactly what he did.

But I noticed the acceleration was not smooth like before after it changes from gear 1 to 2. The gear 2 viberates during motion as if you are using a lower gear.

Presently I can only use it when driving slowly on the street but can't speed up with it.
Any attempt to speed up will disengage the gear though it is on Drive. It will be firing without moving.
Good for street but bad for expressway.

What could be the problem?

Hi the engineers in the house, i need your help seriously..

I bought this ford rangers 2012 from a company that it has a faulty top cylinder & not moving . So after i bought it i tow it to my mechanic and he fixed it by changing the top gasket or top cylinder, (i dnt really know) & it works for just 5days when it started over hitting & other malfunctioning.

So i took to other mechanics and open it, only for him to tell me that my mechanic did a bad job, that d car should rather be taken to a diesel mechanic for proper repair instead of my mechanic (a petrol mechanic).

So now d mechanic opened it & be given unnecessary bill (cost)
Now d bill he gives me is too much & i need d following here

1. A good diesel mechanic in Lagos as i base in ajah
2. How much can d top gasket cost
3. How much can i get Cylinder assy benjohn (thats d name he called it)
4. What can be d solution to this problem as d oil now mixed with water
5. How much can new engine or very good tokunbo cost
.. P

Pls i need ur timely assistance and response as i am regretting buying d car already

Who can identify these parts?

First part is a powersteering pump .


The other black part is either an Map sensor or a Hall effect sensor of some sort.

Belgium not benjohn, means tokunbo

You should take vehicle to a reliable diesel mechanic and have it at the back of your mind that you will need to buy replacement foreign used (tokunbo) engine.

Good morning, I use a Camry tiny light but had issues with my brake which I was told to change the Master brake and I did only for me to travel from Oyo to Ibadan and notice the brake getting flat again and my co Traveller suggested maybe it's because of the long distance cos he experinced same with his Lexus RX 330 as well. In getting back to Oyo I took it to the mechanic and it has not happen again but I'm still Within my area. My dear is for it not to happen again when on a long distance drive.
Please What might be wrong and what correction should be made?
Thanks
