I have a Toyota Corolla 2009 model , I bought it Naija used and since I bought it it has been giving one issue or the other. Anyways the main issue now is that it keeps going off while I'm driving , when it does you just wait for about 10 mins and when you restart it it starts. A mechanic told me it may be that the radiator is blocked and I should go flush it since it seems to go off whenever it gets hot. Another person said it may be the coils , that whenever the coil gets hot that it goes off. The first mechanic I saw said it's the kick , I changed the kick but the problem still persist. What do you think may be wrong with it.

I did a scan which revealed that I have to change the steering knuckle and right and left sensors. The person who scanned it said the sensors can make it go off intermittently and it may also be the fuel pump.

Replacing the starter motor was a complete waste of money, starting the engine was never the issue, the issue was the engine going off intermittently.

The abs wheel speed sensors will not cause an intermittent engine shut off either.

Most times for that particular brand, clunking noises from the suspension area are normally from the steering rack.


You should take your vehicle to a proper workshop where you can get accurate diagnosis b4 you start spending unnecessarily on parts.

Hi my boss at gazzuz

I want to do some servicing for my baby , a Camry 07 that has served me so diligently. Since I got it 4-5yrs ago no issues, but its beginning to show some signs of fatique. D legs r beginning to make some wobbly noise though on rough roads only. And I notice that when I hit d brakes after doing abt 100km/hr, d car vibrates violently.

Pls advice me on d following because d different mechanics I've tried to consult hv all given me different diagnosis .
1. What shocks r d BEST , new or Belgium, if new where can I get ORIGINAL new shocks.
2. What could be causing d violent vibration when I hit d brakes at 100kmh.
3. D oil level drops every month but it doesn't smoke or drop anywhere,apart from d bottom plate that is constantly soaked with oil. I've been using it like dis since I bought it but I think d level of shortage has increased abit.

Ur expert advice would be greatly appreciated

KYB from a trusted source

Replace brake disks or resurface if within safe limits.

Oil drop is normal on the 07 camry with the 2az-fe engine ignore it and keep topping if it goes too low.


Are you sure your struts are bad? Sway bar bushings, links, tie rod ends and joints are usual culprits for camrys after extended use on nigerian roads.

I know Chevy recommends Dot 3 or 4 heavy duty brake fluid, but I'd advice if you can easily find a Dot 6 fluid, grasp it with all limbs cheesy

GAZZUZZ,

I greet you specially.

I had an accident with my 2002 Toyota Camry V6 November last year. The car skidded off the road into a bush and the exhaust got extensively damaged with grass and leaves tucked into it. Catalytic converter, exhaust pot were replaced and some welding work was done.

Since then, fuel consumption has gone over the roof and scanning has revealed p1135 (A/F Sensor Circuit Heater Malfunction Bank 1 Sensor 1) and p1155 (A/F Sensor Circuit Heater Malfunction Bank 2 Sensor 1) error codes.

I do not believe the A/F sensors have gone bad cos it's unlikely for the two A/F sensors at different locations to go bad at the same time. Also, the same p1135 and p1155 codes were present when I first got the car and you said I might need to change the sensors but the error codes disappeared after exhaust work and the sensors were not changed.

I've had 2 other panel beaters/mechanics examine the exhaust and test drive, and they all tell me, "Oga, your exhaust is fine. No let anyone take you chop". They say there's no popping sound when starting the car, no visible leaks and the exhaust is breathing fine.

However, the slight stalling I experience when accelerating (not all the time and not too often), the increased grunt, decreased power & acceleration and the now excessive fuel consumption make me believe all is not well with my car. (Car did not have these issues before the accident).

I don tire, and I wan park the car as the fuel consumption don dey dig hole for my pocket. I'll be glad if I can be pointed in the right direction to get the problem fixed once & for all.

NB: I am in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State.

Basic oil type for that vehicle is synthetic 5w30

Fuel economy is great, but also dependent on the engine size you decide to go with.

oil pressure leaks from mating with bearings and crankshaft.

replace engine.

what vehicle is this?
Its 2006 camry, 2AZ (2.4). How about changing these parts 'crankshaft and bearing', will that solve the problem? Because for now, the price of engine is too high to afford.
