Pls help me resolve this. I don't know what is wrong with my tiny light camry, if it is left idling, it will be like that for a few minutes, then it goes off. It won't restart immediately until you give it a minute or so. Don't know what is really wrong. Pls help.
A lot of things can cause such anomaly. Please, scan the car and post codes here.

My mechanic suggested that I should change my back brakes, which I did. Now my brakes are worse. I'm told that the master brake is bad.
My car model is Toyota Avensis

lol... i was told my master was bad as it appeared my breaks were slipping when idling and on gear. i took it for repairs and after the breaks were worked on it was worse. I asked the guy how the hell did you give me this car and breaks no de am and u tell me its ok. i quarrelled him extensively and i took it to another guy who replaced the nipples, bled the system and its okay now.

pls i have this noise called vvt rattle on my es 300. it only does on cold start. i have learnt it is a common problem of vvt engines and it is everywhere on youtube. I started noticing it as i clocked 265k miles on my car and she is still going fast. I plan to keep her till 500k miles. The mechs i have showed this problem asked about oil lights, i have none. Check engine light showed one o2 sensor is bad which i am replacing today. I used to have an oil shorting, breaking seals and smoking problems all of which were fixed after i replaced pvc valve and hose. the mechs say the noise is from the cam but i need to know what part of the cam and how many of them that needs to be replaced because i donot want any trial and error that will most certainly ruin this baby. i use fully synthetic 5w 30 which i change every 1500 miles for safety.

You did not specify the year model of your car. Some es300 do not have vvt-I (1991-2000).
That said, you’d need to replace two vvt-I cams and both are situated on the intake cams of the engine.

Your VVTi is the cause. Do you use a 4 cylinder or v6?

Please, any idea of how much is this VVT-i for corolla s 2008? OEM please. I was recommended to change mine due this rattling sound on early morning starting and also when the vehicle is packed for many hours.

This is hard to remotely diagnose or advice, pls, let a professional carry out diagnosis on the car to find what’s causing such issues.

Look for people that specialize in brake repairs, brake masters.
Ask your mechanic to refer you to a brake master to fix your brake.
Mechanics are not brake specialists.

Where is the car located?
It’s always best to keep a car the way it was manufactured except there’s a known fault with that manufacturing.

That said, your car needs to be scanned and then your question answered.

Sir, thank you for reaching out to me, I don’t know what is the cause. I would however recommend a diagnosis to zero in on what’s wrong with the car then we know what steps to take in order to solve it.
