Hello sir,
I am currently having AC issues with my car Toyota Camry 2009 model xle. The AC will suddenly top cooling. At first, when I turn it off and restart it will continue cool.
Recently the AC stopped cooling. I went to a Refill and it was discovered that the condenser had injury which was welded and a refill was done. after the refill, The AC cooled only when on high speed. it will stop cooling once I slow down and will not pick until after several minutes. I visited several AC technician and their verdict was my compressor's was bad and it can stop working altogether anytime from now. They all advised not to buy the same compressor that came with the car but to replace with a manual compressor.
I am not comfortable with replacing the original compressor with manual I am not also not convinced that the compressor is bad. please i need your help.

My good friend,

I would NEVER advice anybody to put what Toyota didn’t put in his vehicle.

I had a 2009 matrix. The AC acted just the way you have described yours. I entered into that manual compressor business. I changed every part of the AC system about 4 times, costing me above 300k.

Later, I went to Elizade, and asked them to change every AC part to original state, and the bill was N199,000 .

I didn’t have the money to do it, I sold the car.

GAZZUZZ:


Must have been in the pre-buhari era, try it again now bill will start from ₦500,000

engrezenwa:
Big uncle,

Please untie this for me.

I’m considering a 2005 Lexus ES330 or 2005 Mercedes-Benz C230 Kompressor.

You should be aiming higher than 2009

If you are going down a hill and you put your car in reverse, it is normal for the car to roll forward small until step on gas pedal?

Good evening Gazzuz

I travelled and my wife has been driving my car for the past week, just got back home and as I started the car, it didn't sound right so I scanned it and got the following codes:

P2196 sensor signal biased/stuck rich bank 1 sensor 1

P0300 random/multiple misfire detected

P0301 cylinder 1 misfire detected

P0303 cylinder 3 misfire detected

P0305 cylinder 5 misfire detected

P0172 System too rich bank 1

P0174 system too lean bank 2

Please advise on the meaning of each code and possible fixes.

Also, there was a smell as if something is burning - I started the car soon as soon as my wife returned with it so engine was still hot.

GAZZUZZ:


I have no experience/s in that field .

GAZZUZZ:


well for starters it is a V configuration engine.

You have very faulty precatalytic O2 sensor on bank 1 (1 sensor 1) reporting to the ecu.

The ecu is interpreting the information and enriching the combustion system causing misfires.

Replace the oxygen sensor and clean the spark plugs. Car will be fine

ozoneymcm:

The way you asked this question !!! I want to assume you are not going down on that slope then you just intend to shift to reverse. If you are initially parked on the hill and want to ascend(whether R or D) it's possible your car goes in the opposite direction till you press the gas pedal. This is because unlike on a level ground, gravity will act on your car and if more than the power of the engine without gas, you will have to give the engine more power to counter gravity
