That is what we have been saying. This is related to cam shaft. Kindly inspect the engine physically to check for loosed wire harness and connectors. Get a good mechanic to do this if you can't do it. Also, check online for possible solution. It is a common issue. If you are in Lagos contact gazzuzz or Kingreign if you are in Abuja

The 0031 and 0037 are related to oxygen sensors. But before you change anything try to clean the A/F sensor, check the air filter to see if it is dirty. Also check to see if any wire harness is cut or not properly fix to the socket. Also, try and read about these codes. They are already here on nairaland. Just search with these codes

Car doctor good evening...
I have Nissan Xterra 2002 model.
I just noticed temperature raise only to check and discover there's no water in the radiator and it was boiling heavily. I allowed it to get cool thereafter I put water but just a little drive the whole water dried up from the radiator. And the car wasn't move well again so I packed.
What could be the problem and what do I do?

Nice 1. You can wash the filter and sun dry very well if you want to reuse it

The only remedy should be changing the rings or changing the engine
How much do you think the engine would cost? A mechanic told me to change the “Half & Top” that it will fix the problem

I drove enter water yesterday mistakenly because I didn't know the road was that bad .
Just some minutes drive after the water I started hearing whistling sound. Parked and check nothing.continuing driving till I reach house,I notice one cable was unplugged by the water probably under just some meters from the exhaust mouth...I plugged it back and the whistling sound continues.
I am just curious and down, I drive a bit D's morn and park to see if It will go but it persist,I am trying to see if everything will be normal again when sun is out and get dried up. I don't still get what could be the cause. I love having ideas of my car issue before calling any kazeem.pls help.

Lexus 330 es
2004 model
My car is taking time to change gears and I have taken it to a mechanic to fix, He removed the bottom plate and changed the filter.
Filled it with Oando 5liters.

But still the issue is still there. As of this morning the car refused to engage a gear at all.
When I try putting it to R, N or D, it won't engage.
I offed the car and wait a little time and I on the car again, the gear now engaged. But I'm hearing one whinny sound under the gear box.

It was the Mechanic that requested for it. Does it mean that the gear box is gone?

Those gears are very sensitive. 1. You used wrong oil 2. Hope the filter was installed in a clean environment. 3. Drain the oil and use original Toyota type t iv

You might be lucky

I did that yesterday and the car started however, it's still jerking ie braking me at intervals, and when I stand still the car will be vibrating as if the engine wants to stop on its own. I started moving again but after some driving it couldn't enter gear again.
I switched off the car and waited for some seconds and switched it on, it now picked and I move but not for while again, it refused to enter gear again.
So whats the real issue, and how much is gear for es 330 lexus.
Thanks

My 1999 Toyota RAV4 AWD was doing hard starting in the morning but now , it can only start when been snuffed and when the automatic gearbox is on drive , the engine goes off. Please I need help on putting the car in order. I have changed the fuel pump , service the gearbox , change the fuel filter and worked on the alternator but the fault still persists. Please I need help. Any suggestion to take out the fault would be highly appreciated
