It is your brake master cylinder, it is either fake or not properly installed. I experienced the same thing some months ago.

GAZZUZZ:

It's a CVT, there's no lock up clutch, no torque converter.

I use Detron II for transmission fluid in Honda Accord 2007.

I want to change to the recommended Honda Genuine ATF DW1

Will it hurt my transmission?

Please kindly reply

Kindly assist with this request please.

haslaw:
Good afternoon GAZZUZZ, kingreign, autologic, and other car gurus,
I have a Toyota Corolla 2010.
I bought an ELM337 OBDII and used it to scan the car using the Torque pro app on my phone and the following error codes (P0106 and P0700) popped up.
I then proceeded to clear the error codes because I read on the internet that it is better to clear error codes first and drive around for a while to see If the error codes return before you take your car for maintenance.

Do you guys think it is a good idea for me to clear the error codes first?

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by seanfer(m): 5:30am On Sep 14, 2021

Clear the code and drive for some time. If the codes come up then you can fix.

Hello GAZZUZZ,

I got a Toyota Matrix 2005 last year November, Which I have not serviced due to very minimal usage. I started driving it two months ago.

Kindly recommend good engine oil brand, as I plan to do the first servicing this week.

Thanks

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Originakalokalo(m): 5:07pm On Sep 14, 2021

I have questions that have bothered me for a while.....

1. What's a Belgium engine?

2. If I buy a Belgium engine of Honda Accord 2007 for instance, is the engine 14 years old? ( 2007 when it was produced to 2021)

3. were all the engines of All Honda Accord 2007 produced in 2007?

That takes me back to question Number 1,

What is a Belgium engine?

Should I treat a Belgium engine of Honda Accord 2007 as high milage engine since "it was produced 14years ago?"

Gurus in the house....

Kindly give your inputs.

Pls help me out. I have a tiny light Toyota Camry. The problem is that it doesn't rev up to about 4000rpm without making some cranky sounds and it affects it's acceleration. What could be the cause? Am tired of mechanics.

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by payne4real(m): 7:18am On Sep 15, 2021

The oil is leaking

Why’re you changing the fluid?

At first i thought the man was joking not until he told me he is going to book me.. I changed it for them and their boss said truly my tyres are expired and i told the boss tyres less than 4 years are not expired.
Please I want to know tyres expire after how many years from production date.
