Greetings to all Auto experts here. My 2AZ Engine is shorting oil and there is sign of oil in the radiator. Looking at the cost of replacing the engine, should I rebuild the engine and if I rebuild, will it last long? Please advise me. |

dbshaywhy:How much do u want to sell the manual rav4? |

carlinks:This is common with this particular car. My friend's own had similar issues, and they told him it's a gear issue. He has already spent close to a million, without getting it perfectly resolved. He is planning on getting a new gear for the car. |

To those who wanna convert ac to manual. There is no difference in manual and auto,same volts,just that the clutch is the only ish,so ud need a thermostat to be installed,so that the ac compressor cuts and picks intermittently like auto. It can work for 3 years b4 e spoil. It doesn't have any effect on v6 engines from 3.0 engine size liter. The downsides is..it would consume some amount of fuel,like a liter or two difference. Your battery lifespan might not exceed 2 to 3 years cos the fan is bypassed to blow direct,whether ac or not.if ypur car is more than 12 to 15 years from manufacturing date,pls don't revert back,if u do. I'd experience problems with overheating,gasket burn,gasket change.end of engine.... If your cars engine is from 1.8l till 2.4 liter ..pls avoid manual compressor. When u turn it on,it would drag your rpm to below 1000 ,and if u brake on a speed bulb,ypur rpm would drop drastically to 350 to 500 rpm and engine would stall. It would cause wear of pulleys,timing belts,chains,vibration, excess fuel gulping and kill the car battery within a year. Automatic compressor is best,but hardly survives nigeria environment due to dust,dirt,sand,fake gas.... so within 8 to 10 months, the follow come ac would pack up,knock ,get burnt and spoil. Automatic ac doesn't tolerate any form of dirt,a pinch of dirt,say bye bye to the compressor.... V6 engines from 3.0 liter would chest any manual compressor,if your engine is the high rev engine that starts from 1000rpm at idle,pls go for it. Don't say I did not warn u. |

I have below 1M and I wish I could get an old model car for my business. |
| Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Babatundehy: 6:47am On Jun 19, 2025 |
hydel:You won't find any good car with that figure, if you do get deceived and sold a money pit, then you will most likely find yourself selling the car to "butchers" or liquidating your business to fix it. |
| Re: Car Talk Chat Room by cardoctor(m): 3:04pm On Jun 22, 2025 |
hydel:Volkswagen Golf 2 if you are lucky. |

udosam:Lift the car with a jack and shake the wheels left to right. You might be having bad wheel bearings. A little clearance as you shake the wheels can confirm this. More so you should have bought complete shaft not in parts |

Engines that start from 1000rpm are mostly back axle cars and sports cars. Like lexus gs300 Lexus gs350 Lexus IS300 Lexus IS350 Lexus IS250. If u be corolla or camry user and the rpm starts from 1k at neutral. Your engine with brainbox(ecu) go burn Tosanatics: |
