Sadly you might have to replace the camshaft vtc gear on intake side as most Nigerian mechanics weld them to solve 3secs cold start rattle.

Other codes are body and abs codes.
Please Oga, don't be offended, I want you to help me out in addressing these issues. I seriously need your service as an expert to help me handle this matter, probably you may discover other things that I've not discovered. Engine has never been loosen before, we only work on exhaust and changed the serpentine belt tensioner but the rattling sound never stopped.

What should I get to clean dashboard, or interior part of a car, that are plastic, looking whitish?

What car? Run a scan on the Engine, SRS and TPMS modules. The result will reveal why those lights are on.
Thank you for the reply. It's a 2008 Toyota Camry Muscle

Good afternoon house.
2010 toyota camry Jecks at 1st start in the morning and then normalize after 2 to 3 seconds. Later it changed.
Now in the morning if you start the car, it will off itself immediately and if you start again, it will start just normal like every other car will do at 1st start up with high rpm which goes down after some time. This time with no jecking. The car was brought Aug 2020, only the engine oil have been changed since it was brought. No CEL on dashboard and no pending codes seen after scanning.

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Johnsonkeyz2019: 9:59am On Jan 17, 2021
I use Honda Pilot 03 but sometimes if I take off maybe using AC nd with a Toyota Camry let's say like big daddy I notice they go faster first but if I keep at my pedal I pass such back
But I also know the pilot was supposed to have an higher horse power so please what could be wrong??

First of all, your Pilot doesn't have more power than any Camry V6 from 2007 onwards.

Secondly, they pass you because you're a lot heavier. You pull back because of the hp advantage (vs the four cylinder) on the top end. But at the start, they're lighter so inertia works in their favor.

Try versus an RX330 and see how it goes. wink
