Happy Boxing day fam. My car idles very perfectly and is in good condition. But i noticed after driving on the expressway and accelerating a bit. When i slow down, like at a traffic light for example it starts to rough idle and the oil light starts to flicker, when it does this it jerks a bit when i want to accelerate after the light turns green. My mechanic said he doesn’t knw what is wrong and when he scanned it the only issue was irregular engine timing and he said it cannot be the cause. Note: I changed the top gasket last year after a friend made the car overheat. Although the engine sound changed acfterwards but no serious issues The car is a 09 Toyota Camry. 4 plug. |

slysdesign:Two issues you have here. Incorrect valve timing and sludge build up within the engine |

I just bought a seat Leon 2014. I notice the engine indicator light came up all of a sudden. The car jerks a bit occasionally if I want to accelerate from rest. It's occasional. I'm worried the engine indicator and jerk could be something serious. The car uses diesel as fuel and I have used Diesel exhaust filter (DEF) thinking it's the filter that needs unclogging but that is not helping either. I bout the car fairly used and it has done 75000 miles so far. |

Guys my Lexus ES300 is having trouble accelerating and I scanned it and it showed the problem is knock sensor. I have tried different knock sensors and it still shows the same issue. I don tire. What can I do?

This is such a useful initiative. Sometimes small faults get ignored until they turn into costly repairs. Sharing here could prevent that. smm panel provider |

komek:You probably meant sound not sand that essentially is the wheel bearing. Depending on your car 🚗 the rear wheel bearings can be infused with the rear brake discs and are not separate. Finally this your name Oniovo eeee be like say we relate 😄😄 |

slysdesign:Let your technician check for sludge build up by doing a tear down on the valve cover and secondly checking the valve timing |
| Re: Tell Us Your Car Faults. Let's Assess And Fix Them by Babatundehy: 6:58pm On Dec 30, 2024 |
slysdesign:Incorrect engine timing will not give you the signs you mentioned, there are millions of cars out there with timing codes and they still continue to drive smoothly, I can bet my two balls that you have serious sludge in your engine, let your mechanic check for sludge, if none, report back and ask for my address for castration. if you weren't unfortunate to have just purchased this vehicle recently, then it means last owner didn't abuse, the abuse was from you and you deserve to be detained, that's because people like you often look for unsuspecting suckers to sell their cars to, what's your vin so people can avoid your vehicle?. |

Guys I just bought 100 AH battery a month ago, however, on parking the car for one week I discovered that the new battery can't start the car again. What the duration that MB can stay idle that will make a new battery to run flat. Can I approached the seller to replace the battery for me, since I am suspecting the battery is fake. |

Happy New year everyone..pls l need help with my 2013 Camry..At first l was hearing a sound that always comes up in the afternoon when the weather is hot l will hear a sound for like a minute or two after l start the car and put on the AC and press the gas pedal ppl say it’s belt and not big deal but the real problem happened few days ago l was traveling and saw my temperature gauge above the middle l pulled up immediately and open the hood l saw my coolant reservoir full to the brim I let it cool down and I checked again then I saw the coolant in reservoir boiling then after some minutes again when it as cool down I can’t find any coolant in the reservoir and the radiator is low in liquid l called a roadside mechanic who said l needed to by coolant he bought the coolant and fill the radiator and also the reservoir to the marked point and I was able to drive the car to many destinations with the temperature gauge normal the second morning I checked again the coolant in the reservoir as dropped to the middle but radiator was full then I bought another coolant and topped the coolant reservoir again to the normal point and drive the car that day but the second morning l checked again and I can only see just small coolant in the reservoir below the lower mark what could be the problem my car AC work perfectly good…can this problem be caused by the serpentine belt and many mechanic said l should remove my thermostat is that a good idea ?? |

Bomaway007:You do not have to remove your thermostat if it's good. Have someone competent check the following compnents: 1. Radiator cap to ensure it seals properly and holds pressure and also relief pressure as should. 2. Radiator for leaks and blockage. 3. Thermostat to ensure it closes and opens at the right temperature range. 4. Water pump to ensure it's not worn out. 5. Head gasket to ensure it's not blown. |

Hello, please I need help with my car, My car was flooded last year and it affected my gear. I took it to a gear specialist and it was fixed and started working. Last month I noticed that when I am increasing my speed from 40 to 60, my car does not respond immediately. It drags or jerks. I took it back to my mechanic and I was told there was issues switching from gear 2 to gear 3 and that it skips gear 3 and goes to gear 4. What could be the cause of this and what next steps should I take. Car Model - 2011 Camry Gear - 22 pin |
