I drive a toyota corolla, I noticed something about the car, when the idling the RMP is just a little below 1, which I think is normal. After driving for a while, while still on Drive gear and the brake is applied( still on drive gear). The RPM goes slower, almost at the BTW 1 and 0. Then the car start shaking small small (noticeable). But immediate I accelerate the shaking stops.

Pls what could be wrong, no check light on. Noticed this about a weak nw.

The said car is a toyota corolla sport 05.

Thank you.

I get your point. However,I spoke from experience of having used the same car as the complainer.

Oil light issue: after my engine knocked and crackshaft and metal, 4 x pisting and rings, 2 x camp shaft replaced. The oil light always come up whenever the engine is on. But when you truttle it, the oil light goes of. I have change the oil switch and the oil pump, but this problem persist.
I still notice some noise from the engine when the car is being tuttled.

Please what could be responsible for these??

I've not scanned it yet.

I only noticed that removing the battery terminals resets the ecu and clears the check engine light for some days. It then comes on again after I've driven it for miles

I have a landcruiser Prado, AWD, 2001. My problem is with the Auto transmission. I have just replaced the ATF thinking it is the cause of the problem because it got burnt. When the gear is in D or R, it behaves as if it is in Neutral, engine revvs high and no movement.

What do I do? I am scared of replacing the transmission, as you can hardly get a functional one without any problem. I may need to get this one checked and rebuilt, my concern is the expert to handle it. Can anyone recommend one. I am in Lekki, Lagos.

Thanks

Thanks a million!

2001 camry. Noticed poor acceleration (I have to depress turtle hard to get good acceleration) and fuel economy when timing belt was changed. Jerks. So does timing belt if not set well leads to all these?

I'm about to service my car's transmission

A 2003 Toyota Avalon.

What atf is recommended?

Also at cold start, the car's rpm jumps to 1500, stays there for like 30 to 45 secs before gradually comes down to 1000, later to btw 850 and 900.

I also experience loss of power when taking a bend or driving uphill. Foot down on the pedal but car wouldn't respond accordingly.

I need your advice, pls

a quick test,drive to a nearby car parts market ,test your car with a new set of Belgium spark plug WIRES, am almost certain its tgw culprit. This is based on experience and what I av learnt from this honorable forum.

MPVGoddess:
Thanks, let me investigate that but one more piece of detail which may be crucial, the none-power door left passenger does not flush with the vehicle body when closed and secondly if slight body pressure is exerted at the end closest to the fuel tank door, the door ajar light on the dashboard goes off.

What do you make of the above?

MPVGoddess:
2005 Toyota Sienna with one power door

Door Ajar light on the dashboard stays on

It seems to be resulting in a battery drain

How do I fix it so that the dashboard reports that all doors are locked?

Thanks

I have a Toyota RAV4 2006 model.
I am wondering when it's right to change the shocks. I have driven the car for over 2years now without changing the shocks, especially the front ones. I know it's not good to start throwing spare parts at a car like that without reason .

However I feel 2 years is enough time to drive a shock on Nigerian road.

thanks. i have a camry big daddy 4 plugs. car vibrates and jerks. changes plugs, nozzles, serviced injector and the jerks reduces but still there and its increases when AC is on.

No smoke from exhaust.

pls what else can be done?

amedualiyu:
I once had same issues but discovered that the temperature of my car was on cold. Temperature was adjusted to middle gauge and that solved the problem permanently. I was camry also.

thank you

Ijscarface:
After I slow down maybe after going over a road bump as am accelerating to gain speed I hear a deep recurring noise the noise stops as soon as I have gained speed

Pls what could be the issue

You did not specify where the noise is coming from . . .

Engine bay? Front compartment? Rear compartment? Exhaust?

What kinda noise? Rattle? Clunk? Hammer? Growl?

And finally, Which toyota generation? 2001? 2002? 2016, 2030 ?


Guesswork:
Noise coming from engine bay ... Pinging noise . . .
