Morning @radautoworks,

My Camry 2007 4 (Engine 2AZ-FE) which I imported from the US has shown up 2 issues.

1. The radiator leaks from the top wasting the coolant I purchased. I have used a radiator sealant which sealed other leaks but could not seal the leak at the top effectively forcing the coolant put a single leak point in a jet stream when the radiator pressure increase. A radiator change has been advised. How much I'm I looking at and what must be done to solve the issue? can the leaking radiator be managed?

2. The other issue is a well known issue affecting the Camry for which Toyota gave an extended warranty. The initial owner of the vehicle used the car sparingly and parked it for some time before deciding to sell it. Having changed the oil to the Manufacturers specs of 5w-20, I noticed a fast reduction in the Engine oil and also noticed that the top of the engine was soaked with l which I initially attributed to other engine works going on in the car till I was forced to admit that there might be an engine leak somewhere.

Having gone a for a car insppection, I have been informed that

a. I have to change the top gasket which was corroborated by another mechanic

b. I have to buy new Engine rings and replace the old ones in the engine.

c. Change valve oil seal.

The quoted cost for the above was eye watering and I sought a second opinion. The second mechanic advised that I change the grade of the oil to the normal Mobil 1 or use Toyota quartz 5000 20w-50 which I wasn't comfortable with. The mechanic said that changing the grade of oil to a higher viscosity oil will reduce the rate at which the oil is wasting.

He went further to inform me that changing the rings is akin to wasting money since I will end changing the engine (an advise I could not corroborate online).

I have decided to change the top gasket only for now but will appreciate your take on the above in terms of cost I am looking at and whether or not I should take the advise of the second mechanic to manage the engine till it stops and change the grade of engine oil.

Thanks.

Haba everyone is viewing no one is inputting .

HeavenlyBang:
Yes, new Volvos are stunning. You can see that their design is influenced by the Germans, and they pull it off quite well.

The older ones, though.

Hey it is better to be popping like a bloody pimple, can't say much for your president .. I know my president is popping from Twitter, Muller investigation, Michael Cohen etc. But at least he is not lifeless... either way we thank God for life

HeavenlyBang:
Glad you guys had fun!

I still think the cars are ugly, though.
But great cars, looks aside.

Few years ago ..a friend that I know .he wanted to buy a brand new accord clean from the factory via dealership. So he wanted to export the car to naija.. He was told that he can't do it ...so they suggested to go and register and put the car on the road ..I don't know what happened after that.. Didn't bother to ask o.
But my guess was that. Once he received the title from motor vehicle registrar, he was than allow to ship the car.. But the car is no longer considered brand new...
I can recall now that the dealership ask my friend, what country he wanted to export the car to ..he told them Nigeria.. And he was told that Honda has dealership in Nigeria.. And they didn't want him to compete with Honda in Nigeria.. Something along that line. The story get has it be

Good day,
I am actually interested in this part. Because I am considering engine replacement for my 2000 model Toyota avalon. How much will the engine cost, labor cost not included as I reside outside lagos.

thebigkendo:
Diagnosis is "Honda leg pull"

herrlekan:
The car was outside as at the time I left but the mechanic assured me that it will be taking inside. The diagnosis will be completed by lMonday and estimate given thereafter.

valarinz:
That will do, its a T5, 2.5l engine.

Didn't see any price quotes via the link, and I want to believe that the $17,509 I'm seeing you post here is a typo

valarinz:
Good day,

Do you have Volvo XC90 06 model timing belt in stock? If yes, what will it cost?

Thanks

Besto:
Probably your engine not receiving right amount of fuel for acceleration. Examine all spark plugs to see if all are firing.
