@GAZZUZZ,

I need your support on my Corrolla 2004 car.
The engine was making knocking sound around October 2016 and my mechanic changed the Crankshaft/metal but since then the fuel efficiency has dropped drastically to roughly about 16ltrs/100km, I noticed after the day of change of crankshaft the idle RPM was high around 1600rpm but when you adjust it to like 800-1000rpm on idle the car will vibrate and even more when the AC is ON, I noticed also that when the car is on 1600rpm idle and you shift the gear to D(drive) the RPM will drop from 1600rpm to around 900-1000rpm. In this state now I noticed the AC keeps working and stopping at consistent intervals.

Another issue I noticed is that the car keeps shorting engine oil since then to the extent of my oil gauge dropping to like 3/4 quarter level after driving like 1600km but what surprises me is that the car is not smoking and can't find any oil droplet

Please I will like you to help on this issue and thanks for your good work here.

Sir, how much does a steering rack of a honda-accord 98 cost. Drives on speed and bumpy roads has been really erratic for me.


Thanks

If you really want a murano i suggest you buy form 2006 up to current date. Well any Nissan from 2006 to current is quite reliable.

Rubbish. I doubt the authenticity of your contact and information. Infact what the customs official told me on the road was that my car was cleared as a single cabin instead of a double cabin. But I decided to give u a false narrative just to see if you will come up with similar story with that of a custom officer.
How on earth will a custom officer let me go with my 2004 tundra when the paper says "DAF Truck".

Well the good news is I went to federal office and they confirmed my papers are authentic.

Thanks.

Hi ,
My car has been a joy until recently.
I have been battling with a harmonic / steering wheel vibration for 2 months now and can't solve this problem.
There is a bouncy (not smooth) movement on low speed, medium speed and steering wheel vibration at 120+
You feel a shaky pulsation on steering wheel when moving
Fixes so far
1. Changed pads and disc rotor (genuine toyota) - 1 week ago
2. 4 brand New tires (Tigar Michelin) 2days ago . Replaced the Michelin the car came with
3. Multiple wheel balancing and alignment done.
4. Caliper changed to ascertain if the former was sticky- 2days ago
5. Wheel hubs changed , because i was hearing a sort of helicopter sound. that solved that.
I don't hear any click on CV joints when turning
All engine mounts have been confirmed okay
What else can I do please....Gazuz and others please help a brother.
We cant afford to do guessing works in the current economic recesion

Whynow:
Thank Gazuuz. That is true.
Reason I said so is , I had a 2005 honda pilot which had same issue and my mechanic detected and fixed.
Did not change the CV joint, he replaced some ring like bearing and greased.
Fast forward today with my Rx350.
I reminded him of d same and he disagreed that it must be this or that.

Yesterday I called my uncle who is seasoned with cars and he said same thing which aligns with what you just pointed.

I will fix asap. And it is time I change mechanic, he is loosing competence.

Do you mind I contact you for this opportunity?

ZIMDRILL:
why it has to cool down for 12hrs

because that gear is a weyrey. Go and google it.

I love this car and would like it for my mum. Oh yes I know about the CVT and the need to use only NS-2 transmission oil. I just want to hear from people who own,drive or have driven it. You will be helping big time by saying a word or two.thanks.

Oga gazzuzz, pls what could be the cause of this tpms light on my 05 Honda pilot. The car drives fine, no malfunction light on the dash, tire pressure monitoring works fine as it was able to show me on the dash when one of my tires lost pressure today. On first start the light doesn't come on, if I drive short distance at low speed it stays off, but whenever I get to around 60kmph for like 10 mins the tpms light comes on and stays on until I turn off the car and restart. I would really love if u could throw more light on this.

stanlotion:
Please I want the house to help me out on this : I had my vehicle registration paperwork done by my cousin and I just noticed that the position for engine number is vacant. They didn't write anything. I called his attention to it and he told me that the number on the engine was not clear that's why it was left like that instead writing a figure they are not sure of and make the police use it against me later. Now my question is : what implication does this have? It is a '99 camry.
