I drive a toyoya Rav4 2006, I recently observed that the car intermittently vibrates whenever am in traffic if the AC is on, however when in motion this does not hapoen. Please advise what could be the cause of this problem.
GAZZUZZ please what is the solution to this problem. I m having similar issues after I changed my compressor.

I intend reverting the cooling system of 08 Accord. Came with double cell radiator, thermostat removed, Fans connected directly and I top it up with water like every 2 days, I see water drip from the around the cap and hose leading to the reservoir which I intend changing.

Kindly advice if I should replace radiator when doing the revert. How much is double cell currently?

what's the repair history of the engine

It's a naija used car. But I guess they've worked on the timing before cos the car is low on power, sluggish. Mechanic says timing isn't set well most likely

At this point, i wouldadvice you not to be in a hurry to return your car’s cooling system back to factory settings
with the previous disassembled engine and no history of work done on your engine, it would be unwise to return its settings back to normal.
First off do an assessment of the type of Gasket you have installed between the head cylinder and the block.

if youll you have a paper or a graphite head gasket, there’s a slim possibility that the car has suffered overheating in the past and was poorly put together.
Graphite is mailable and could easily be used when trying to solve over heating issues without necessarily reconditioning the head but in a case like this When you restore your settings back to normal, you risk blowing your head gasket again because itsposs the last technician didnt do a proper resurfacing of the head cylinder.


So for now just replace the radiator, do your inspections and get back to me.

Hi boss, I recently bought a Nigeria used corolla 2003 everything seemed fine from engine to hear. The day picked it up after driving for a while d car it suddenly stopped when I put on the AC and attempted to reverse, refused to even crank, an auto electrician checked and said it was just a fuse, but since that day it's been from one fuse to the other always blowing up,
yesterday I got stuck when the fuse that controls the AC and power window blew, I was sweating under hot sun nor way to wind down. I have asked like 2 auto electricians to help look at it, they say they can't find any burnt or bridging wire. It's been very confusing. I don't know where to look. I have just parked the car down till I know the way forward. Any suggestion will be appreciated

Re: ASK GAZZUZZ by AgentSpoon(m): 7:31pm On Apr 05, 2021
hello gazzuzz, which of this two scenarios would cause more drag on the engine (corolla 03)

1- Driver with AC on
2- Driver with 3 passengers (all adults) with AC off.

thanks in anticipation!

No 1. You can drive with even 4 at the back and load in the booth and you car temperature will still remains still and moving normal but try on the AC and hear how the car will start dragging

Good Day Gazzuzz, I observed that if am driving on smooth roads the ABS, 4WD, VDC lights dont show up on my 2008 Nissan Pathfinder V8 but when I drive over a bump or pot hole or turn by a junction when on low speed these lights come on and the vehicle stalls and practically does not move. To get the vehicle moving I will remove the battery terminals and wait for some seconds, put the terminals back before the pathy starts and moves. Like today I went to Keffi from Abuja and had to do like over 5 stops to do that. I scanned the vehicle and it threw up C1131 and C1163 codes. How do I resolve them please and have my pathy fixed. Am in Abuja.

Hello, pls i observed abnormal gear switch in my sienna '09 and check engine light P0776 . I stopped and noticed approximately 3L of transmission fluid which I managed to a safe spot off highway , I Got mechanic and changed gear oil but am still experiencing abnormal gear switch.. what could be the cause and if possible solution to this Sir ?

Possible causes are:

Low ATF or dirty ATF,
A solenoid,
wiring harness rust or partial contact,
Bad Valve Body,

I can't tell solutions till its properly looked at by a qualified technician. By the way, what type of ATF was used in filling the transmission?
