Please I really need help concerning my Camry 07 gear , Firstly let me tell u what happened ,I suddenly notice my gear select late and when I discovered I notice water enter d oil but I was surprised I didn’t enter any water so I was told from the radiator there’s a pipe that connect them and probably it leaks ,they tried all sort of tricks like flushing it but no avail and the drive stopped and only the reverse work fine and I was introduced to a gear operator ,he scanned it and this were d code below �

P0748:- Pressure Control solenoid A Electrical
P0778: Pressure Control Solenoid BElectrical
P0798 : Pressure Control Solenoid Electrical
P0983: Shift SolenodD Control Gieuit High
P0986: Shift Solenoid E Control Circuit High
P2716° Pressure Control Solenoid D Electrical
p2770: Torque Converter Clutch Circuit High

He ask for money that he will buy d drive which I gave him and other money ,he remove the gear and said he clean everything and replace the things needed but when done it’s still d same and only d reverse still work only please help me ���� I paid almost 150k already

Sorry about this, I’d suggest you go the rather painful but rest assured route of replacing the transmission and the defective radiator or better still, getting an external transmission cooler installed. Use only genuine toyota transmission fluid type WS as a lot of oils out there are fake.

If you’re in Abuja, feel free to contact me so I can be of help to you 07034581213.

Greetings to you Sir,
Please, what’s the type of engine and which of the VVT-i do you need?
Intake or exhaust?

It's a 4 cylinder engine. It's the intake VVT-I that I need.

Good evening gurus in the house. I had an incident yesterday while driving yesterday from a friend's house to my place in the night, during the rain.

After driving for about 2 hours we got to a bad road and while trying to negotiate a slippery slope, the car skidded off the road and the engine went off. All attempts to restart it was abortive until someone used his own car battery to start the car and I managed to drive it home that way.

This morning I started with my own battery and it started no issues but I was still worried so i got an electrician to check the car. After scanning everything checked out fine. So he told me that the alternator that came with the car was weak. And that it was not able to handle all the functions we were using at that time of the night ( A/C, full lights, wippers, radio and charging points) were all in use at the time.

He advised that I should change the alternator to a more powerful type, not the type that shipped with the car. I gave this a thought and I didn't quite agree with his suggestion.

Please has anyone experienced this before? And how was it resolved. The car in question is a Honda civic 2004, like I wrote earlier, everything is intact with the car and it hasn't exhibited that kind of fault before.

You bought a pet python and it has started measuring itself with you to constrict you. Unfortunately to rectify this issue, I would advise you revert back to the exact type of engine that came with your car from factory. I am not an advocate of cut and join kazeem style shoddy repair job.

Get a digital multimeter and test your alternator if it give around 13 - 14.7V when engine is running, your alternator is fine if it gives a higher or lower voltage than the range I stated, replace with exact type that came with your car. Don’t allow one kazeem mislead you.

Just got a car
I'm new to auto things

They said the battery is small compared to the car power
They had to borrow battery to start it up

I got a bit confused
My basic knowledge in sciences contradict that
Cuz battery size shouldn't determine the power delivered per unit time from the battery
But how long it would work

Can i get some enlightenment

Your car can do just fine with 50ah battery, if your battery is weak, boost charge it, if it has failed, get another battery.

really

Thanks
I think the battery should be up to 50ah
Will check this morning
Most likely a weak battery
He was earlier taking about a need for a changed terminal though
But I don't thing that's the problems

Abeg help me. I have been battling with engine misfire and random misfire since the beginning of the year and no solution still.

It is a Camry 2007 3.5L 2GR-FE engine.

I have changed all the spark plugs. The car was fine for few months. After some time the car was vibrating and hesitating during acceleration. I got P0301 after scanning it. I changed Ignition Coil on cylinder 1 about 3weeks ago.

As I was driving home today, the car started hesitating whenever I try to accelerate and the check engine light came up and started blinking.

I got P0305 after scanning it when I got home. Below are the data readings I also got from the VIEW FREEZE FRAME.

LOAD_PCT(%) = 85.5, ETC (F) = 189, SHRTFT1(%) = -3.9, LONGFT1(%) = 3.9, SHRTFT2(%) = 0.0, LONGFT2(%) = 0.0, RPM(/min) = 2340, VSS(mph) = 40, SPARKADV(*) = 17, IAT(F) = 104, MAF(lb/min) = 6.666, TP(%) = 31.0, O2B1S2(V) = 0.700, SHRTFTB1S2(%) = 99.2, O2B3S2(V) = 0.640, SHRTFTB3S2(%)= 99.2, RUNTM(sec) = 360, EQ_RATB1S1 = 0.999, O2B1S1(V) = 3.483, EQ_RATB3S1 = 1.005, O2B3S1(V) = 3.301, EVAP_PCT(%) = 100.0, WARM_UPS = 15, CLR_DIST (mile) = 78, BARO (inHg) = 29.4, EQ_RAT11 = 0.999, O2S11(mA) = 0.113, EQ_RAT31=1.005, O2S31(mA) = 0.000, CATEMP11(F)=1188.14, CATEMP21(F)=1188.14, CATEMP12(F)=936.14,CATEMP22(F)=1188.14,VPWR(V) = 13.164, LOAD_ABS(%) = 61, EQ_RAT= 0.997, TP_R(%)= 13.3, TP_B(%) = 66.3, APP_D(%) = 32.2, APP_E(%) = 48.2, TAC_PCT(%)=30.6

Kindly assist me with what could be the problem. Other car expert can also assist me.

Please I need help, I have a 2000 toyota 4runner with the 5vz-fe engine, been having engine surges (like it wants to turn off and immediately I will pick up to 1000-1500 rpms) for a while now and a lack of acceleration power especially when climbing rpms tend to drop, also when I press the accelerator at highway-speeds the car can vibrate some times.

Also when I turn the car on in the morning or after a long time, it would be shaking ,I have to pump the accelerator repeatedly before it would idle properly.
