Good morning great minds, my 2004 Corolla is burning out oil very fast or shorting oil, I top the engine oil with 1litre almost every two weeks, the engine sounds great and it does not smoke,though all this started after I started using it for this hustle, my mechanic said the top has to be grinded, please what could the problem and possible solution be? I will appreciate honest opinions and suggestions from experience drivers here. thanks

It's either leaking oil from the seals, or its smoking but you can't see it or its PCV valve is bad.

sundayerhun:
Thank you. He's asking we get another brain box for the 10 pin. Is this advisable?

I dunno o

Good day, Chiefs

My car AC takes time to pick if at all it does. Some time, I start feeling the coolness only when I drive fast. Note: the filter is new and gas is filled. It cools well when it turns on

Please, what could be the cause and possible solution. Thank you

Prolly your compressor or expansion valve or condenser.

Keep the car on stand still and hold the Rev at 2500 to observe if it chill.

sundayerhun:
I have a Toyota Camry 2008. The gear delays before it shifts. When I am trying to accelerate beyond 40 KM/hr, the gear delays and the car makes a loud noise.

The gear was a 13 pin converted to a 10 pin, and my mechanic says that's the problem.

Please, I need suggestions on what could be wrong.

He's right.

I use Hardex and I service once every 4 months since i barely drive out. I only go to work twice a week.

Oil burning switch to a thicker oil

Leonyluiz:
Good day everyone. Thanks for all the helpful tips so far on this forum. God bless everyone.

I have a 2006 Honda Accord. When I start the car to idle, the exhaust steams normally but I recently noticed that once I give it a little gas, blue smoke comes out of exhaust. Note. I recently serviced. It was minimal before the service but it is a bit intensified now and I feel it will continue to deteriorate .

What could be wrong and what are the risks in using it at least this week before taking to the shop.

What oil do you use and whats the oil change interval?

Fritzdultimate:
I drive Toyota Avalon 2006, my gearbox spoilt, so I change it by buying direct Belgium.
After fixing the new gear, when u put it in reverse it will shake the car, while when you put in drive it will jump gear 2 to 3, mechanic told me it’s because the injector head is bad and making the vehicle overheat which I noticed. But after testing as I want to pack the car, the drive gear stopped engaging, only the reverse is entering with a big sound that will shake my car.


Please help me.

If your car wasn't acting in such a strange manner prior to replacement of transmission,the transmission is defective, please ask for a replacement or a refund.

Baldmarv:
Thanks for your response, my car has a dedicated O/D switch with 5speed automatic transmission. Check again.

No vex, my mind carry me go Lexus ES330 or Camry XV40.

Baldmarv:
My 2006 Toyota Camry i4 has a shudder with the following characteristics:
1. Vibrations start at around 50m/hr or 80km/hr.
2. Happens only on light throttle.
3. It goes away if I let off the throttle or press Down and it shifts to a lower gear.
4. Only happens after 5th gear when the rpm drops below 2000.

My suspicion is a faulty torque converter for the following reasons:
1. If I turn off Over Drive, limiting the transmission to 4 gears it never vibrates.
2. I’ve dropped the pan, cleaned and actually flushed the transmission fluid with T-IV. And it made no difference; so I know it’s not a fluid issue.
3. My tires are new and balanced
4. Car runs smoothly at same speed it usually vibrates when I turn off OD.
5. My engine mounts and shafts are tight with no clucks when I engage drive or reverse.

Please gurus am I on the right track? Your contributions will be greatly appreciated! If I am on the right track, how do I know a good replacement TC?

It's a transmission issue, I can't tell if it's a torque converter issue or not. By the way, 2006 XV30/40 does not have a dedicated O/D switch if it's a 5sp auto. Or is there something I'm missing?

yad2eidi:
shut up. This guy is overated and annoying af

You wey dey as you dey, you no rated anyway, you even dey very annoying sef!

Victor395:
You will end up buying 10 different 13 pins that will not work. And gear sellers do not give guarantee. So the best is to convert to 10 pin

Mumu talk.

Park well joor!

Change radiator.

Do not bypass ya cooler lines.

Originakalokalo:
ello everyone.

My transmission fluid mixed with coolant and the gear fluid was flushed out. Car is Honda accord 2007.

Temporarily, the cooler was bypassed.

What are my options:

Continue with the bypass?

Buy an external cooler? How much?

Change radiator?

Please I need comments from seasoned professionals.......

Change radiator, but flush that transmission system and hope for the best.

Aiykay:
Wahala....Please where or how can i get the original one?

Where is your location?
You need to get it from a reputable seller not some online order.

Aiykay:
Please which of the ATF WS is better? Red or green can?

Just have it at the back of your mind, based off the price indicated on that screenshot, those are fake Chinese products.

Besto:
IS is also a strong ride.

In terms of fit and finish, build quality, a GS thrumps it. The only more superior Lexus sedan is the LS limo.

sirgalahad26:
Hello everyone, I'm planning to join club Lexus soon but I'm having a hard time deciding between the ES350,GS350 and the IS250.
I'd appreciate pro's and cons of these models so as to make a decision. Thanks in advance.

If cost isn't a challenge, I'd take a GS over an ES or IS anytime anyway.its a better built car all round. I have a customer that has owned his since 2018 at 73k miles, its now 107k miles, it's a daily driver car, till date no oil leak, no CEL nothing. It still looks and feel pristine inside out nothing like EPS electrical problem.

que4:
Hi Kingreign. Mine is a 2014 v4 Accord (Lagos). I’ve traction light, check engine, steering wheel, LDW, FCW lights on (plus FCW failure flashing in the centre panel).

Before this happens the forward collision light on the windshield would flash and minutes later all the error lights on the dashboard come on. First time mechanic scanned it he got a camshaft position error (camshaft was changed recently), he said he needed to program to ECU to recognize the camshaft then he cleared the code. It came back next day.

I’d another mechanic scans it, he repositioned the camshaft but FCW and LDW stayed on. This he said was tied to the ABS and resurfacing something about the Tyre. (TPMS has always been on, something about the sensor replaced by a valve so o need to revert to a sensor instead).

He did it and lights went off. They are back in the next day. I don’t like the trial and error these men are doing and Honda’s forum suggest way too many reasons for this from battery/alternator to sensors and plugs.

What do you think is the problem as I'm uncomfortable driving a car lit up like a Christmas tree and camshaft position error still persists in all scanner results.

Godwin0420:
Greetings All,

Thanks for the support so far. I was the one who asked about a Toyota Rav4 gear replacement. The gear has been replaced, but I noticed a leak which a mechanic said is from the gear seal on the shaft. I would like to know if it is a simple fix.
Secondly, I noticed that the instrument cluster readings on my dash seem to have some form of zero error when the ignition key is in the "on" position. The tachometer seems to start at 500 rpm, pushing the idling value to around 1500 rpm. The speedometer and temperature gauges read way below zero and the fuel level does not go below a quarter tank even if the fuel is empty. These gauges rest at the zero point if the vehicle is turned off. Please advise if there is any solution as the reading on the temperature gauge seem to be causing the check engine like to come on (P0128 and P0118).

thanks for always.

Physical diagnosis is the best approach to sorting this issue. Remote diagnosis will be difficult here. If you are in Abuja, i can help out.

xcesscars:
I have Toyota venza 2010 have been parked for months but wanted to get it running and it seems like the brain box is spoiled we tried to replace it with another brain box with same number still the work isn’t perfect.. the car is in Lagos. The rewire said we haven’t gotten the matching brain box yet I don’t understand

Type and send your VIN to me 07034581213.

I'd run a check and give you the correct part number.
But you may also have someone else to check properly.

My Lexus 400, hybrid, When on D (drive), the car won't accelerate while throttling it, it will be moving slowly. But when shift to R (reverse), the car will move normally and smooth.
Please help me, what could be the cause?

Check ATF level, if low, Add fluid.
