Dear N/L,

Kindly assist with the possible cause and solution; if my car is not warmed for like 5-10 mins ; if I want to change the gear from P(park) to D(Drive) or R(Reverse); it's quite stiff.. But if the engine is warm or park in a hot sun.. it's less stiff. The make of the car is Toyota Corrolla .. 07.

Kindly assist with possible cause and solution.

Car Talk / Re: What Are The Functions Of Cruise And Over Drive On A Gear Stick? by akinsanya005: 8:37pm On Jul 23, 2022
kernniejay:
1. The Cruise Control helps you to maintain your speed steadily at where you set the cruise control without using the throttle when you are on the highway. All you have to do is to control the direction of the car by the steering wheel. The vehicle will maintain its speed without you pressing the accelerator. Once you press the brake, the cruise control is deactivated.

2. The Over Drive (OD) helps your car to run at a higher speed without laboring your engine. The OD will reduce your RPM even when your car is at a high speed, thereby reducing your engine labour and fuel consumption. This will make your engine last longer.

The difference between Cruise Control and Over Drive is that, when you set the cruise control, you dont use your throttle/accelerator again while your vehicle keeps speeding at the steady kilometer per hour rate you want. BUT with the OD while you keep using your accelerator to determine your speed, your engine will not suffer any pressure or labour. The OD is best used when you are at top speed on highway, as the speed will not strain your engine. OD will not let your engine overwork by the speed.
Caveat - OD is not to be used for towing or climbing uphill road.
Gurus, your thoughts and further explanations pls.

Car Talk / Re: I Finally Bought The Car I Went To Lagos To Buy. Now In PH With The Car by akinsanya005: 7:51am On Jul 22, 2022
INDUSTRIALFAN:
if it shows catalyst, it might be blocked. If it’s blocked, just remove it and use a spacer (this tricks the car system to think there is a catalyst still there and that solves it) as for the transmission code, try checking ur gear oil. If it’s black instead of pinkish, it’s due for a change and and most likely the filter too is blocked which may need to be changed. Clearing the error code without solving the cause of the error will not take the problem away

thanks very much...really appreciate... I will try this.

INDUSTRIALFAN:
you can’t just sleep away a problem. Something obviously hs triggered the check engine light. You need to sort that first. Get a scanner and scan your car to know what the problem is. Sort it out and use the scanner to clear the error code and it will stay off. That is until there is another issue that might need attention. Bad spark plugs, bad coil, even blocked catalytic converter amongst other things can trigger the check engine light and until the trigger is sorted, you can’t wish away the problem.


hello@indutrianlfan,

I have used a scanner as suggested.. the error code was cleared and it went off initially but the light shows again. while scanning; the scanner shows two error messages.. the transmission and the catalyst.. while the car was bought as TOKUNBO , the CATALYST was confirmed and the technician suggested we service the gear because both coolant in RADIATOR & GEAR OIL were not tampered with. My question is if it is catalyst; how can you knw if a catalyst is good or bad and also, can it be repaired?
