challyy2k3: Is the car tokunbo or Nigerian used? What is the current mileage? If na tokunbo recommended oil is 5W-20, not 10W-40. If it's naija used, be sure what the previous owner has been using to know if you're switching to 5w-20 or not. Oil life is determined by an algorithm, under certain driving conditions (high temperatures, short trips, frequent starts & stops) your oil life will degrade faster than under normal conditions. If you're concerned about it being accurate or not, stick to a fixed maintenance schedule. If na 3000 miles àbí na 5000 miles you go dey do before oil change. When the percentage go down and e never reach, reset am 1 Like |

Parzival001: Your mechanic has likely tuned your cooling system to naija settings. Na something cause the overheating but na something else dem go do for you. This means that your engine doesn't reach operating temperature and causes it to burn more fuel. If you're confident the repair was handled well and the cause of the overheating was solved, reverse your cooling system to factory settings. Or I may be wrong. Village people fit dey suck the fuel. 1 Like |

Judejibs: Depending on the app you're using, go to the engine monitoring or live data tab. You probably have leaking air intake or vacuum lines so check that too. Get MAF cleaner and clean your mass air flow sensor too |

bemigho01: All four? Even if you put on your Hazard? Repairs not related but confirm your rewire may have messed with the fuses. If you can do DIY, check fuse number 22 and replace with a 15A fuse (e no pass ₦200) For reverse gear, scan with a high end tool to confirm you don't have any transmission codes.

Abbeyb1ack: This code you have is not related to your alternator issue. B codes are usually SRS codes, so your airbag light go dey on right now. Try checking the ECU under the driver's seat, clear codes and see if it goes away. If your alternator is not charging your battery, get someone to check it or replace it. 1 Like |

sniperwolf: Start with small things first, Your scan states a fault with the sensor. Check wiring first then test a new sensor. Clear codes, drive then rescan. BTW, what issues are you having and can you share a pic of the top Cylinder your people are referring to?

jojomario: 2AZ that's built in Japan. The one in your car and most other camrys from 2003 to 2009 is built in the US and most have oil burn issues. Na competent technician you go need to get what exactly you need |

jojomario: 5 hours is enough for a relearn especially if you stopped and restarted in between. Prepare to replace engine, you'll be wasting money fixing guesses by your mechanic. jojomario: Na this same cylinder 3 he repaired before na but he did not do it properly. See if repair gets to this level wey you don open all the internals finish. na complete overhaul you suppose do. New piston and rings, gaskets, valve, seats, guides and all. The repair is expensive because you need to use OEM parts. If you have small time, watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ug--U5FkTTo So buy new engine jeje, JDM preferably make oil burn issues no dey again. |
