Hi, thanks for this thread.

I have a Toyota highlander 2010 model, I noticed my car vibrates anytime my speed gets to 100, I asked my mechanic and these are the list of things I have done till date with the aim of solving the problem.
1. Rotate tires
2. Wheel balancing and alignment (3 times)
3. Inner shaft replaced
4. Double check the tires to ensure they are okay.
5. Checked the engine seats and my Mechanic insisted that they are all fine, he further said engine seat could not be the problem...

I once again drove today and the problem is still there, it starts vibrating as soon as the speed gets to 100.

I would appreciate your input please

[quote author=larrixauto2017 post=76896252] The smoke should be somehow a blueish smoke from the tail pipe. The problem is that your car valve stem seal is bad which allow oil into the combustion chamber. So when the oil is burnt it causes that smoke for short period of time. Try to do it befor it get worst. Thank you. [/quote

hello house,please I have an issue with my car,Kia cerato manual drive car, the engine will start raising on it's without anyone pressing the throttle,the mechanic have changed some parts that he felt might be faulty but the problem still persist, so he suggested that we change the brain box, can the brain box be the problem?the car always kick start immediately without any problem except the raising issue. please help me out, thanks.

Good day, my 2007 Acura TL engine is not circulating oil and the mechanic suggests that the engine should be replaced.

I bought it Nigerian used and the engine has been opened before by the previous owner's mechanic.

There's a lot of knocking sounds coming from the right of the engine area.

I was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience - do I really need to replace the engine?

Any leads to an engine seller in Oyingbo or Ladipo?

He said I'm gonna need like 20k again to cut the CRAFTSAFT and get other materia to use... Now, my question is that, please do you have idea about what I just explained? can you tell me and give me proffesional advice sir?? I don't want anything to happen to my car ooo.

.. Yes sir.. If I may ask sir.. What kind of oil did you always use on the engine.. ?
when did you started hearing the sound.? What is It been done on it last...? What did you think it might be the cause of the noise at first hearing sir.?

Yes Replacing a part on an engine sir.. Or rebuilding it a NO sir .. Why.? Cause we lack professionalism in our job and No Good part in our market sir.. So if it is true the engine is faulty to the extent the guy need to change the metal amd after fixing it the noise continue sir..

My advice too you know is to get the engine cOmpletely Replace sir.. To avoid Wasting of money and effort including time.

The Issue i note in your written is that

The engineer didn't do is troubleshooting properly.. Before concluding too you sir.

Thanks Am Shegzthecarguy

Exactly sir, he didn't do troubleshooting very well...... Using MOBIL OIL 20-50W.... Started hearing the sound around February in which the guy said, we need to wash the bottom and he did..... then, the noise permanently stopped then not until like 4days ago that the noise started again sir... What was done on it last was, he loosed the BOTTOM bla bla bla and wash it with... Honestly, I was thinking maybe it was just normal noise but I was moved when it keep increasing.... But now, it only make noise like 30seconds when it changes gear on motion.... like from gear one to hear two, it will make the noise. And, it also make the little noise when it is working like maybe when i start the engine running..... Though, the voice has reduced unlike before..... the day I took it to the mechanic for testing, he drove it and speed like 90 speedomer (You should know how speed it was that day sir). it was after then, the noise became much louder oo..... sorry for disturbing you sir.

Good day bro. I drive a Honda EOD. My rev gets stuck at 3 even when the gear is not engaged. But while driving it changes jerks when the rev approaches 3, however when I release the throttle it engages and the next gear.
What could possibly be going on?

You are using the wrong oil . Sir.. which is what build up oil sludge on the engine system..and affect Some inner Part of the engine which leads to the noise sir.. but sir.. Now everything as gone beyond sir.. You have replace some part and also wanting to cut a crankshaft..

My advice now is to replace the engine completely too avoid wasting of time ,effort and your money sir..

And after the replacement of the engine..
always use the right engine oil specified by the manufacturer too the engine sir..And should be a synthetic oil sir.. And Pls do service it regularly according too the vehicle service routine shedule

Thanks

it is 2011 model,I scanned it once and I was told it's the brain box but people kept telling me that it can't be the brain box. I took the car for panel beating and painting and it was working perfectly before then. I went back to pick the car and the problem started(I don't know what they did to it), immediately the car is kicked it will start revving high and low,so I've been unable to drive it since then because I can't control the speed and the brake will become very difficult to press,thank you.

If you top up the water in your radiator every two days OR your car overhears and your radiator is not leaking. Also, your cylinder might have been deformed due to overheating.
