Ordinarily, if I am driving the car, the fist 7 minutes is always cool, once I start entering traffic, na so wahala go start, even without AC. It becomes worse when I switch ON the AC. Is lexus E 350 a good/durable car |

aaronson: Got new tyres last year, not Tyre at all. I really meant the car doesn't move fast whenever the AC is on, it drags, act as if it's carrying load higher than its capacity. |

lwise:Did you have any reason to change your compressor, if you did, the one currently in your car isn't suitable for your car. Don't neglect your fuel syetem as well(injector, fuel pump, fuel filter). What's the colour of your tailpipe smoke? 1 Like |

lwise:Guy I had exactly the same experience with yours after my top cylinder gasket was changed. It was later found out that some valves in some cylinders were stiffened already. The repairer had to bring the top down again and it was fixed approximately. No matter how old your engine can be, it's compression can still carry AC. Don't mind what some people are saying. The problem of that car is firing system. Not all the cylinders are working. So take back that car to the repairer so that he can bring it down and start afresh. He must have coupled your work in a hurry. 2 Likes |

What type of Benz and year s model are you using or can you recommend that can give that kind of peace of mind. Thanks bro go and buy Benz! All these Japanese cars will always give you headache. Since I have been using my Benz I have not visited the mechanic for once despite traveling with the car every time. Since I have dropped all these Japanese cars I have said no to mechanics.[/quote] |

alezzy13: Several years ago my 2nd car was blowing white smoke thru the exhaust. Mechanics said the rings needed to be changed. My uncle advised me to get a new engine but I decided to be frugal and cut costs. I suffered for some months after changing the rings. Horrible fuel economy. Honda civic oh... Always smelling fuel inside the car. I finally changed the engine. That was wen I experienced peace of mind. Take my advice: don’t waste ur time and money changing the rings and top gasket. Change the engine. Thank me later. 2 Likes |

From my own little experience....is ur idle speed normal? If ur cold idle speed is too low, there is every possibility u experience such. Check air intake filter n clean, service ur throttle body n or check ur air control verve sensor . Those are culprits 2 Likes |

lwise:Hope all these response won't confuse you. I even saw someone say go change ur engine.... Lol. I just bought a new compressor for my ac too, its a peugeout 206 but it was confirmed by 2 experts that its old and leaking. In my opinion, the prob ure facing has nothing to do with ur engine or fuel pump so long the car moves well without ac. Its either the compressor has been worked upon or u changed ur battery recently and the capacity of the one u bought is not enough to bear the ac load or perhaps the one there presently is old and reducing in function.. A slight reduction in speed when ac is on is normal or inability to climb a high slope when ac is on..is also normal. But bringing the car to a halt simply means ur car has very little or no compression. So I'll suggest u change d battery if its a low maH capacity or old one. U can use a stronger battery to test it first. Try that before you work in ur compressor or any other ac unit to avoid worsening things. |
