Car Talk › Re: Are The 2zr Engines Compatible With Each Other? by GAZZUZZ(m): 3:17pm On Nov 25, 2018 |
compunigeria: Pls is it true that 2ZR-FXE engines( singleVVTI) can be used on a car originally with 2ZR- FE engine( dual Vvti ) e.g corolla 2009 + by simpling exchanging the camshaft?
(Middle pic is 2ZR FE credit to oga@GAZZUZZ 's collections) The first and the last pics are 2ZR FXE with single VVT( note the OCV sensors).
@gazzuzz,@kingreign,@oluwaseunnla,@Egunmogaji,@AutoElectng, @nurey @inception , @timifakay, @thebigkendo
@ TEAM REPLACEMENT and car enthusiast crew pls. Looking carefully at the transmission you have a hybrid setup there. most toyota hybrid engines have Atkinson cycle driven engines. Same bore and stroke, but different compression ratios for easy start ups from the hybrid motor.
In conclusion, the block would be same but the head is different.
Swapping out the camshafts should solve the problem.
Modified: the dual VVTI might be a problem for the oil passages so Inspect both head properly before committing any funds to this project, also the valve cover will be replaced along with the missing OCV.
good luck. |

AgentSpoon: After the 10th prime, i cranked but the engine only started on the second attempt. Pls what can be done to make the engine start as cranked on first attempt. thanks sir That completely rules out fuel pressure.
At this point there's little I can do remotely.
Start by checking Cylinder compressions, it is very possible engine takes more time building compression on the first cycle.
You could have a carbon buildup in the valve area.
this is just a guess. |

brogxy: There was an accident that I had, that third party failed to allow me take details of his insurance but opted for settlement. it depends on how busy you are. These days when I get hit, I don't bother coming down to check I just drive off if it's serious I take pics and file a claim, if it's not I allow it accumulate till the day of judgement.
If you have comprehensive insurance it's good to help your insurance by getting the plates or insurance details of the erring party so the third parties insurance pays for the damage (insurance to insurance tins), but not mandatory. |

adeniyiHansome: Hello House,
Please what is the best thing to do if you have an accident while with a client. It was a keke marwa yesterday who broke off my side mirror completely. To worsen the situation, it was driven by an hausa who called his boss and the man gave him instruction not to pay but to take me to a mechanic to fix it. i ended my Uber trip and since i am the only person i had to follow the guy [i](a unwise decision) [/i]while we were on the way there, he ran away cos i was held down by traffic.
Will u just ignore cos u have insurance?
Hence my question, what should a driver do in case of minor accidents like these.
Thank u. Take a pic of the accident, take a pic insurance details of 3rd party. And drive off.
Ther rest will be handled by insurance |

I'm thinking of buying a 2007/2008 Infiniti FX45. I've always loved that car.
Is there anyone that has used (or still uses) this car? What's the maintenance like? I know it's a V8, so it will gulp fuel. I don't mind that aspect.
Is it a reliable car?
I await your honest reviews.
Thanks.

AgentSpoon: Yes sir, I have tried to prime it but didnt start right away. Yesterday i primed it 3 times and i had to crank twice before engine started. When i put the ignition on, i hear the humm sound from the fuel pump, i did it 2 more times and cranked the engine but it didnt start right away. Whatelse can be done sir. I want my engine to start as cranked sir. The only time i enjoy crank and start is maybe when i park suddenly to receive a phone call or anytime i have a brief stop, in this case it usually start one time!!! prime 10times before straying |

khassy: Good day Gazzuzz.
Two days ago on my way from Lagos my car Ac suddenly stopped working about 5hrs into the journey.. took it to my kazeem and he said he'll need to fix something's and change the air filter.
He did that and I collected my car yesterday afternoon..
After driving for about an hour again, the fan went off again and later in the evening for the first time since I have been using this car my car overheated.
Temperature was on the last red, has to quickly park and all my coolant was already sizzling out from the reserve.
I called him, he came and checked, said he couldn't find anything. He poured water into the radiator and advised I take it home and bring it today.
I checked the car this morning for burnt gasket or leaking radiator and everything seemed fine. The radiator water didn't even reduce.
He checked it Thia morning and still couldn't find anything, he later said I should drive the car around and bring it in the afternoon so he can check again.
Please what could possibly be wrong.
The car is a Camry 08
NOTE I have always used coolant since I got the car, never mixed my coolant before
I used Mobil 1 5w30 and always change my oil at 4500miles, recently moved to Mobil 1 extended and my odometer is approaching 4500miles already a failing fan most likely |

Rotji: Glad to know you have SAE 5W-20 cos I've mostly been using MOBIL SAE 20W-50 since, only problem is I'm in Delta. How do I get them here? pls what does Quartz mean? I understand liters better, and how many liters will do for CR-V 05? Thanks
Plus I'm inching towards 200,000 km on millage now, will same engine oil work at this time? Cos that's the manufacturer's recommendation at purchase you might want to stick with your current plan, your oil control rings would have suffered premature wear by now. Using 5w20 might cause engine to burn oil. |
