Uneven wear on the brakepads.

Heat might have made the o rings in the caliper and piston weak. (not too likely)

Mdx 2004 Brakepad replacement and job is complete.


Always use a clamp to compress caliper pistons, that way you do not bend the bolts.
this is exactly what i am suffering now. changed my brake pads 2 months ago as a preventive measure. afterwards i started hearing some clunking sound, grinding sound (only once in the morning when pulling out and applying brakes) then brake drag, and increased fuel consumption. then i started hearing some intermittent squeaky sound all from the same rear passenger tire. went back, we dismantled the caliper, greased the components and coupled back. symptoms lessened, then appeared with greater intensity. i came back from church on sunday, raised the car on jack and discovered tyre couldnt spin on its own (except with so much force from me). removed tyre, dismantled caliper and behold, upper caliper bolt was well bent. unfortunately couldnt get it in bayelsa. will be sourcing for it in PH tomorrow. gazzuz, is there any greater problem this might have caused to any other component?

Car Talk › Re: Frequent Timing Belt Issue by chukel(m): 2:23pm On Jul 19, 2015
instinctg:
I have been experienced 2 recent timing belt failures in the last 3months in my Camry 01 which is quite unusual. timing belts shld not be changed more than once a year under ideal scenarios and I need to know what could be the culprit cos its not fun experiencing such incidents.

which symptoms can one look out for? advice and suggestions are welcome
I have noticed this with a lot of 2001 camry. Like sienna said, either a fake belt or bad technician. But check online if there is a timing belt TSB from toyota

Sway bar replacement and tie rod end inner right side replacement.

Procedure I used.

Steering rack down, engine beam lowered, propeller detached.

Please ensure the joint between steering and rack is marked before starting the job. That way you don't mess up the steering angle.

Also you need two containers to collect powersteering oil and gear oil when drained so you don't mess up the floor.
I no understand. Are u saying this ride did not come with sway bar shocked huh Who come de responsible for that? A white kazeem?
Car Talk › Re: After Using Total 20w50 For 6 Years, Is There Any Effect If I Want To Change To by chukel(m):
Segzie8180:
You can still use the recommended engine oil. The mistake you made is that you could have flush the first before changing the oil then. It's because majority of our mechanics don't even know the difference in these engine oil. They could have advised you better to use an engine flush before changing the oil. It works. ...
guy please, in the name of God, stop posting toxic stuff here. This is a public forum and people tend to swallow stuff hook, line and sinker here. You still don't get it. The problem is that those synthetic have detergent property that washes off the sludge formed by 20w50 which is protecting the expanded rubber seals of the engine. When u "flush" in your context, u have just done what the detergent property of 5w20 would do but in a rather rapid way. This is just a recipe for leakages and rattling and hastened engine knock. So if u have used 20w50 for a long time, stick to it. No doubt manufacturer recommended oil grade is the best. Macmilla, was lucky with the location of his leakage. Most others may have very bad internal leakages that will end up as burnt oil.

Just because you won't pay does not mean you have to call one a crook. If you have registered all these while, why didn't you share it for free to everyone here
