I've been using eyes to search for that metallic line. I need to source it for a very dear brother. Although his isn't bad yet.

Somebody said he would get me the metallic line for 10k

Costee:
P1778 is to be most dreaded because it just might be the beginning of the end of the cvt. But it may well (hopefully) have been triggered by the other codes. There are some two or three variations to the 2007 Altima and before I can make comments on the codes I'd want to be certain we're specifically dealing with your car. This can only be done through your VIN. Are you disposed to post it? Or you may call me to do some brainstorming.

I think otherwise - 1778 setting the others.

yea...that d question..which way to go? For me, I don't run after a moving bus..In my yrs of experience, I av learnt not to buy during d bull, dats d easiest time to loose money..anyways, I'll watch and see how long d bull will run, I refuse to b greedy..

I agree completely. I am not going to buy at this bullish trend. I must wait for it to retrace. I just need to zero in on the target equity, load account, and then watch it daily. Do you have any pick(s) in mind? Access bank in view.

Thanks.

Feels good to wake up dis morning on dis note..my market is close to 10trillion cap.. and feels good to be a year older today..oya join me for Jade palace make we spend bull money small..

Happy birthday.

See what procrastination has cost me! Wanted to load up Diamond bank when it fell to 1.40ish, but got distracted. See me now, I for don make cool money Feeling low-ebbed right now.

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the next best time is now! I do not want to make the mistake of the last boom, which still has my funds trapped in the market till today. I need to shine my eyes this time around, learning from the gurus here.

My Ogas, which way to go?

I think i will try that.( when ASA i close from work)

But do you think the Torque converter or transmission pump can cause such whine in such circumstances?

Please note that when the car is in park or Neutral, there is no such noise when i rev the car to the limit.

The whine is not coming from the TC, but the vibrations could. For the vibration, I suspect a torque converter clutch shudder. It happens when the clutch engages and disengages very rapidly, sending vibrations across the vehicle. The noise cannot possibly be coming from the pump, because the pump is always pumping, as long as the engine is running. You have said the noise is not there when you rev it in N and P. Pump ruled out.

If you have a TCC shudder and your ATF is clean, you possibly have a VB problem.

Bros, na Buharinomics i dey practice na

Thanks for your response. I actually have the bearings as my prime suspect in this case. The whine is first heard in first gear, then it becomes very loud(i.e the whine) in second. In third gear, it becomes very faint, then it is non-existent in 4 and 5.

The funny thing is, when the accelerator is depressed when it is in 1 or 2, it becomes very audible( even when the glass is wound up). but when it is in gear 2 for example , and i release the pedal, the noise disappears. If i depress again , i hear it until it changes to gear 3 where it becomes silent.

I too do not really suspect the differential , built rather the inner CV joint, as i hear some rumbling noise and experience vibrations when accelerating to high speeds (45-70 mph), am i am 100 percent sure that it is not a tire balance problem due to the fact that the vibration stops when i lift my foot off the accelerator pedal. i am only thinking that the whine may have contributory effects though through the diff?

As for the mounts, the 4 are all in perfect condition, as i even recently changed the dog-bone mount.

What is the relationship this noise has with engine and vehicle speed? From your explanation, it is not looking like a gear ratio-driven noise, since its there in 3rd, albeit lower. Can you maintain an average RPM from takeoff during another test? On the other hand, can you maintain an average speed? For instance, drive hard in first to attain about 40km/h, and then maintain it there while the car gets to 3rd? I suggest you drive it with the lever in 3rd.

Trying to pinpoint what drives this noise.

With the vibrations at higher speed, TCC comes within radar.

Inception:
Hello guys,

i am in need of a used (or will i say bad) U250E transmission(with torque converter), preferably removed from a 2007-09 Toyota camry to be dashed to me or sold as scrap( i will pay for shipping).

The following criteria for the transmission goes thus:

1. it must have been removed from a working vehicle( by u guys of course ).

2. prior to removal, there should have been no whining, grinding or clunking noise (signalling mechanical failure)

3. the trannsmission problem must be valvebody related( in other words it should have generated valve body or solenoid codes, preferably P0776, usually caused by very dirty transmission fluid), as i know say other sensor codes on transmission body no go wan make u change am

The issue is that the current transmission in my car(2007 toyota camry) makes a whining noise in gear 1 and gear 2 (suspecting either a bearing or planteary gear failure) but is silent on other gears.The gear shifting is seamless, reasonably and transmission fluid is clean

i also suspect that there may be a problem with the differential, as i hear clunking noises when i drive over rough terrain(note: the front suspension is 100% on point, though i kind of suspect the the inner cv joints tho.)

The plan is that i would swap my valvebody and all sensors to this transmission and replace the existing one with it.

Reason for doing this i simply the high cost of getting a transmission(250k no be beans mehn) and i have sufficent technical competence and right tools to do it.

Expecting a positive reply from you guys!

Shuo! All these conditions for free lunch?!

If there is a planetary failure, the transmission will have serious driveability issues. A common problem (which I don't think your model should have) is pinion getting lose in carrier. Another thing to bear in mind is this - there is no planetary gear that is exclusive to 1st and 2nd ratios. There is also no holding member (clutch or brake) so dedicated. This means that if this is coming from a planetary, it wont be heard in 1st and 2nd alone. This noise should show up in at least, one other ratio.

If you say bearing well, I am not able to figure out which, unless you are referring to roller ping bearings. Noise from these should be very minimal.

Clunking noise on rough terrain will not come from differential. There is no tolerance to allow that. This whining noise may come therefrom, but you need to confirm if it is there when the transmission is engine-driven(accelerating) or wheel-driven(coasting).

Finally, the mounts are my prime suspect.

I have a guy who goes to hunt for clean engines for me in ladipo market, I ran the vin of chassis tagged to the engine to be bought and the mileage was very reasonable. Also I ensured I got a 2GR-FE engine that didn't come with the crappy oil cooler lines. So vehicle owner is assured he will not be having this problem in the future.


This is the new engine.

Look carefully near where the a.c compressor should fit

Nice precaution to take. That VVT hose burst is just like glaucoma. No symptoms; just sweeps on you with dire consequences. Mine is the toughened hose, but I look forward to replacing it with the all metal as soon as I find one.

Kudos!

cocoduck:
those materials are metal particles, clutch materials etc, if it is just burnt oil, just drain and put new recommended oil, and you must do a regular maintenance, oils degrade when subjected to heat, and the tranny generates lots of it when for example towing, these oils have friction modifiers and other components in them to ensure your tranny works well, so if you use the wrong oil or don't change the oil when due the oil will become less slippery and loose viscousity, what it means now is that components now rub against each other without lube, what is it? it will simply wear, they will scratch each other and wear out, just as you use a grinder to smoothen steel surface, then your gearbox will slip. So metal particles in a gearbox oil means the gearbox need to be rebuilt or thrown away, if it is simply burnt, you are lucky, but you must not allow it to get to that extent.

There is no transmission you will open and not find metallic dust in the pan. It is normal. But if it is above acceptable range, not fine as powder and most importantly, not attracted to the magnet, there is problem. Shavings that come off the case (coming from bearing housing and bushings) are aluminium, so have no love for magnets.

If they do not come from the casing, another main source is the TC.

Any shop with a transmission flushing machine around?

Good day sir,pls am having issues with my rav4 2001,it drags and jerks so hard wen trying to accelerate in traffic.pls send me ur contact so we could talk.

Not all Rav4 10/03 transmission issues are from the PCM. There are laid down procedures in determining this, though your complaint is looking like it is the PCM!

The body of Dr Offia Nwali just died recently, the soul died December 1983 with the ill fated Nigerian airways fokker 28 crash in Emene (Enugu).

In that flight were his wife (chief Mrs Uche Offia Nwali and their six children including an infant less than two months old).
Horrified with this mind numbing tragedy, Dr Offia Nwali then a Senator abandoned his mansions , his cars and all his wealth and fled to his village Ameka Ezza. There he forsook his country home and built a Hut with mud and grass.
He didn't want anything again with the modernity that took away his family and life as he knew it.

Everybody understood and commiserated with him. But when he said he didn't want anything to do with women again, the elders of Ameka drew the line. No way they chorused in unison.

Promptly an 18 year old maiden was provided for him for marriage.
It would be decades again before we hear again of this great Ebonyi son and a legend in Igbo land.

By 2005 when Ebonyi state was scouting for a worthy son for appointment as Chancellor for Ebonyi state university, the credentials of Dr Offia Nwali towered above every other. PhD mathematics and computer analytical studies ,Harvard university 1966.

The Governor of the state Dr Sam Egwu had to go to his Ameka village to plead with him to come and take the post.
By then, the new wife had given birth to six children one of whom is Oguzor Nwali. Thank God for the wisdom of the elders of Ameka. An Oguzor Nwali today can stand and speak for his father and preside over his father's funeral ceremonies.
Though bowed by a very grievous tragedy , Dr Offia Nwali remained unbroken.

Six children at 42 means he married early. I never knew he was still alive, as nothing was heard from him again. Even thought he was from Anambra.

I remember that morning in Enugu, with the plane making noise that clearly indicated it was in distress.

I was taken to the crash site weeks later. The cockpit area was intact, but what was left of the passengers' seat were rods. The fuselage was undamaged, so I wondered what could have been responsible for the huge casualty figure. Unburnt clothing littered everywhere. I learnt it was pilot error and ironically, he made it out alive.

Everybody was shouting 'Uche Offia Nwalli, Uche Offia Nwalli'. RIP to this great man!

abituns:
I couldn't place my hand on the ATF, but I don't think that would have been the reason why the D light is blinking. Like I chat with you now, it still blink and atimes it will stop on it own for days and other days it will start the blink again.

Find correct scanner and scan that MPV, and not a basic code reader.

tumababa:
100% correct.

Good then. I will start small, to test the waters. Late to call you now?

tumababa:
U load it on your amazon us account like you load recharge card. When u want to checkout u use the balance instead of your bank card. So there wont be anything like card limit or order declined due to failed card authorization etc

So, I pay you N270/USD gift card and load it in my account. Assuming I pay you 27K for $100 gift card, I can simply pay for an item worth $100 with it?

GAZZUZZ:
it's a transmission related problem.

Gbam! The problem is between the ECU and solenoid(s).

Scansoft:
I need help please.. I forcefully climbed a muddy slipry Hill yesterday and the car stops. The reverse gear works fine, but D, D2, and L will not engage.
I called a mechanic who drained the fluid and added a new ATF but problem persists.
I need candid advice please as I did moved the car back home with reverse gear.

Start with a physical check. Get under the vehicle and inspect the transmission sump. Make sure it is not dented. When you select a forward gear, do you feel any engagement?

Oil change does not fix problems.

Yes, it is a CV joint seal but it is not a DIY stuff. You will need special service tool (SST) to undertake that. If you need a new seal, I could help you.

But, but, but think wisely before you start throwing money at it. The prolonged ATF usage might have nailed the coffin of that CVT. It may not be on the road for more than a week. Their belts hate ATF! An OEM belt costs as much as $750!

luvinhubby:
Oga they gave you a refurbished gearbox for 85k, forget about getting a refund in Ladipo & ask for a replacement. Most likely you will add 15k & get a direct tokunboh gear as 100k is the current market price.

If they refuse that way, ask for their nearest union task force office & lodge a report.

It may not be refurbished. Not all used transmissions work. Remember, nobody removes a working transmission from a non salvage vehicle.

willibounce1:
If you have a problem with your car, take it jejely to Ladipo and make sure u stay and monitor them while they work on it. If possible, follow them when they need to buy any part to replace just so u are sure of not been cheated. All this online people you are going to meet are just forming Behind and educated mech, many of them don't know jack.

Ladipo? Unless there is a new Ladipo apart from the one in Mushin.

Years ago, they changed my rear suspension and my ABS light came on. I complained, and they told me it doesn't matter. "Oga, we can remove the bulb from the dash if you don't like it" WTH!

There, they replaced my windscreen that kept dropping from the frame until properly fixed by a professional.

Two years ago, a 'guru' there worked on a friend's car and almost burnt it down.

Two months ago, I went there because there was this transmission diagnostic tool I was looking for. I went from one 'transmission specialist' to the other, and the first question each of them asked was, 'which motor dey use am?' I was shocked non of them knew there are pressure ports on auto transmissions.

Supervising them does not in any way improve their skill nor quality of service. As per making sure they don't cheat you, 10 of you won't even realise it is taking place!

Hello have a murano 2003 had a gearbox issue and my mechanic changed and used the nissan quest gearbox on it. It seems to work fine but has a pulling issue especially on hills little or no kick down. Anyone with a solution to this problem.

Install the original CVT.

Most responses say there is no risk. Let's hope it is strictly true.

Maybe I should care less now.
