I drive a Camry 08 4plugs

I noticed a wobble on the leg from the front passenger side. This happens mostly when I have accelerated now cruising (coming downhill) without matching on accelerator. So when I want to accelerate again I feel those damn wobble otherwise car accelerate just fine.

I have change the shafts (first I changed the outer ones of both legs) then when it continued I went to change the inner shaft cup too. But I still feel same thing.

I called a second mechanic I trust to drive and feel but he said car is fine and accelerate fine and that he didn’t notice of feel anything.

But when I drive I feel it and it even makes a wobbly sound too.

I have done wheel balancing and alignment too.

Don’t know what else to do. Pls my experience engineers help me. What could be wrong?
Have another very competent technician check the shaft ASSY, hub, tierod ends, ball joints.

Hello everyone, I drive a 207 CRV, the car have a blinking D fault and now it won't raise or enter different gears.

Help me please
You have a misfire, scan and check. It could be a coil, a plug, an injector or bigger problems such as electrical malfunction or cylinder low compression.

I love that break hold in my GLK 2013.... It is being activated by depressing the brake pedal, and turns off when you accelerate......
ANother fun feature which I am not sure is on this civic is ECO Start/Stop; engine turns off when you come to a complete stop in traffic and on when you hit accelerate pedal....

Again, I came across how I VTEC engines work especially on V6; some cylinder would stop working to economize fuel usage... How true? Also, Does that exist on the 4 plugs too?
It's a nonsense feature. It's very inconveniencing and puts needless stress to the starter motor and engine, engine mounts, AC system, life in the long run. It was introduced to reduce emissions and fuel consumption in traffic holdup.

Good morning gurus,

My 2011 Toyota Corolla jerks on entering gear 2 and afterwards selects perfectly. When I scanned I got code: P2770 as displayed in the image below

My mechanic have disconnected and connected back the Brain box and also have serviced the valve body but the problem still persists.

Please, help on what to do here.
Your best bet is replacement if the torque converter switch/solenoid or complete valve block replacement.

Good evening experts!


My Toyota Camry 2001 (Envelope) has been of late having issues.

I've personally scanned it with my scanner and my Mechanic has done all he thinks and there's no solution in sight yet.

When I start the car it works fine for a moment and afterwards the whole system changes and the car (RPM) drops to almost zero and shaky.

I've changed the Air Mass Sensor,Fuel pump, injector Nozzles, Serviced the injector system.

Now the engine temperature rises in a very short while and produces black smoke from the exhaust.

Please Help a Brother.
P.S. I just serviced the car too
What's the code from the scan?

The LTFT readings are normal but the STFT reading aren't normal. A normal reading fuel trim reading should be between -10 to +10. Nothing above nothing below.

I don't think the first gen of Acura Tsx use a MAF sensor, I've confirmed online and checked around the intake hose where MAF sensor are usually connected, nothing. Instead i have one sensor that I don't know the name

As for 02 sensor, i first got a toks downstream sensor, when i didn't see any results, i order both up stream and downstream o2 sensor from china and fixed myself .. it's been like 3 months now


I know I'm not supposed to expect the exact factor rated mpg on the car cos lf it's age. But in my case it's just absurd. I'm getting less than or almost half of the rated fuel efficiency.
I've spoken to other people using my same model car and driven some, they have far better fuel efficiency than mine.
This car share same 2.4l engine as the EOD and crv. Those cars have good fuel efficiency
Get factory OEM sensors or tokumbo. Chinese sensors or generic sensors most times do NOT work 98% of thr time.

My Honda accord 2000 V6 transmission blinks D4 when driving. It is lazy on first gear (1) and moves well on subsequent one

Scanning with a scan tool threw up 2 codes under the A/T section.
-45-01 Shift Malfunction.
- 41-01 Incorrect Gear Ratio.

How do I fix this? I won't mind any mechanic recommendations here on Lagos mainland that can work on it.
Replace transmission.

Victor attah Is from Akwa ibom. He is a former Akwa Ibom state governor.

Speaking at a press conference in Abuja on Friday, the Chairman of PANDEF’s Peace and Reconciliation Committee and former Governor of Cross River State, Obong Victor Attah, lamented that Wike’s refusal to engage with the committee had stalled mediation efforts in the political crisis rocking Rivers State

Hello kingreign,
What's your take on rekitting a power steering pump and steering rack.
The car is a 2006 honda accord V6
Most times, it doesn't work properly. 90% of the time. You're better off buying a tokumbo part.

Wannabenz:
When traveling to my village last two weeks,I started seeing AT on my Mazda 3 dashboard, showed my mechanic and he seemed not to know about it as well. The AT sign has been there since then. How do I go about it?
AT light on your dash is an automatic transmission warning light. It shows your transmission has developed a fault, is overheating or low on transmission fluid. Have it scanned and also check the state of transmission fluid ASAP. It requires very urgent attention.

Pls ignore those talking about mileage/odometer roll back, it isn't necessary at this point in this car's health.

Nomerci:
At 203k mileage,thats if it wasnt rolled back using a gadget from sharp scam practice by naija dealers. Well its a miracle the engine is still running. AT. To me is automatoc transmission(check the sensors,valve body etc. Seems its either low on fluid,fluid is almost dried out ,loose bolts from valve body,etc,or its leaking and almost dried out. Check your transmission oil,while gear is on Drive and handbrake is on. Guage it first.
The OP asked a rather straightforward question, instead of you guys to answer him or ignore if you do not know the answer, you chose to dance around beating the bush.
