Changed one of the bad shocks on the right while ignoring the good on by the left.
The mechanic said the two shock have blcome uneven or not balanced blc i recently changed absorbers.the "beating drum noise" still persist.
Can this be true?

That's how 1995 rav4 J behaves. It's absolutely normal

Sir, it's a 2001 RAV4.

Na now you talk, I would had made suggestions but my brother, my hands are tied because you spelt it here that the car had had electrical issues and it's ECU was at one point replaced. So no vex, lemme jump and pass.

Hello bro, I am presently battling a P0505 (IACV) error code on my RAV4. I removed the initial throttle body, followed the cleaning routine for both the IACV and the throttle body but the cleaning did not solve the issue. I bought and installed another tokunbo entire throttle body about two months back but the code is still present. That's the only code I have on the ride when I scan it and I am so eager to get rid of it, because I suspect it's contributing to my fuel issue plus the erratic RPM shifts sometimes. Now I have two scenarios -

1. Could it be that the replacement unit is faulty? or

2. Is it possible that the code has been permanently stored on the ECU? Just so you know, I bought another ECU after I purchased the ride to solve the transmission issue and some other electrical faults.

What do you think? Thank you.

Hello gurus! I have a 2002 V6 Toyota Highlander limited edition and I think it consumes fuel.. a full tank takes me about 280 miles then the reserve light illuminates.

Pls is the fuel consumption normal?

Assuming you did a mix of city and highway driving to get 280 miles and your tank took up to 70L on your next refill, 15mpg is short of the rated 18mpg.

Your car is a 18 year old machine, expect a drop in performance.

Don’t stress yourself. Your car is okay remember our fuel is not up to the standard they have in other countries.

Check linkage rods, sway bar bushings, lower arm bushings.

Good evening boss, I was working on a car today Corolla 2009 with a 2zr engine. Before accident, the car was starting fine without problems. During the course of repairs engine had to be removed. After the repairs engine was replaced everything was put back in place except for the airbags they were yet to be replaced because of funds. Here is the problem, I have spark, fuel, compression, at times it will do as if it wanna start but it won't start after a very long crank. No fault codes present In the Powertrain ECU. I'm just stuck as I don't know what to do, though the engine sat outside the car for about a week.

Was the ECU removed from the car at anytime?

KINGreignn:

Yes it was removed and returned back to the engine until it was fully re-installed because of theft.

re-sync it back or else your car won't start.

Is there a manual way of doing it without scantool. As the scan tool I have is more like a generic one, it can only scan and clear codes for powertrain and see live data from the computer

KINGreignn:


1 gal, 4 ½ quarts of Toyota Genuine Automatic Transmission Fluid type WS will do.

Where can I purchase it. Lagos based.

Good evening,

Thank you for your responses.

Is there a way I can check the extent of damage on the gear before I change the transmission fluid?

Billiebaba:

I don't know of any manual way. I use high end tools to run it.

I don't know of any way to test it other than pouring in the fresh transmission fluid and testing.

I'm interested in the solution to this, I have two cars with this same issue.

The recent one started after I changed to the extra Tyre and back and it has been like that.

KINGreignn:

Changed struts and sway bar bushings on the older case, issue went away and later came back.

Either low quality cheap parts were used or they weren't installed properly or you did some serious offloading.

Launch, Autel, foxwell etc.

KINGreignn:

I'll have to check with the mechanic to ascertain what the issue is.

BTW, can you please point me to a source for these parts around here?
