clinician2x: I have misfire on cyl 4 (p0304) as the only code. Now when I clear it and drive, it will not show up and acceleration will be steady for as long as but once I park and get out, only to start the car much later to move, car will start jerking and check engine will appear and start blinking for a few seconds and acceleration will be steady if I drive for say 5 mins. On anothercold start however the cycle continues.. I have changed all plugs and mechs have cleaned the injectors. Check your coil, take note most of the time if the check engine was blinking it relayed to bad ignition coil |

timenamoney: Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 8:52am On Jan 17 louken: I started experiencing sluggish acceleration at second and, sometimes, third. Beyond that the vehicle moves smoothly. I scanned and got these codes: P0500, P0986 and P0798. Please how do I tackle this problem especially with the last two codes that point to solenoid. Will replacing the gear brain box solve the problem. Also, where is the vehicle speed sensor A located. (P0500)
Car is 2006 Rx330 AWD
PLEASE KINDLY DISREGARD THIS UNRECOMMENDED ADVICE FOR TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR PROBLEM
THE GEAR DOES NOT HAVE IT'S OWN BRAIN BOX, RATHER IT HAS SENSOR'S, SOLENOID, VALVE, THAT REPORTS TO THE CAR ECU OR ECM (BRAIN BOX ) FOR PROPER TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE OPERATION FOR PROPER MOVEMENTS, THE MANUFACTURERS KNOW THIS ITEMS MAY GET BAD AND BE REPLACED, THAT WHY YOU HAVE THE CODE TO IDENTIFY THE PARTICULAR COURSE OF THE SLUGGISH ACCELERATION, AND WILL NEVER ADVICE YOU TO BUY A NEW TRANSMISSION , WHAT IF YOU BUY A NEW TRANSMISSION AND A TRANSMISSION OBD CODE COMES ON AGAIN , WILL YOU PREFER REPEATEDLY CHANGING TRANSMISSION'S ?
REMEMBER TIMENAMONEY  Most American and German vehicles have their own TCM TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE |

vivalavida: Please explain what you meant here by the engine oil change interval due to the the ECU reading how many tines the tire has rotated. Is this for cars where you can set their oil life? And secondly, can one fully trust the oil life monitor in cars? Lol this is going to calculate how many kilometers the vehicle has covered to determine when you are going to change your oil, it determined the next services, that's when maintenance required to shows up on your dashboard |

Note: the other side of the car tier is still very okey, no single chopping. Only this driver side is chopped. Your car alignment needs to be reset and check your lower arm bushing, tie rod 08167071246 |

MedicH: pls i have this noise called vvt rattle on my es 300. it only does on cold start. i have learnt it is a common problem of vvt engines and it is everywhere on youtube. I started noticing it as i clocked 265k miles on my car and she is still going fast. I plan to keep her till 500k miles. The mechs i have showed this problem asked about oil lights, i have none. Check engine light showed one o2 sensor is bad which i am replacing today. I used to have an oil shorting, breaking seals and smoking problems all of which were fixed after i replaced pvc valve and hose. the mechs say the noise is from the cam but i need to know what part of the cam and how many of them that needs to be replaced because i donot want any trial and error that will most certainly ruin this baby. i use fully synthetic 5w 30 which i change every 1500 miles for safety. Where are you from, the sprocket need to be replaced ask at 08167071246 |

somez: Greetings everyone. Please I am writing this with a worried heart. I left my car with my mechanic to change oil and left to buy some other things for the car servicing. Coming back, behold I found my mechanic ( he's boy actually) pouring the engine oil through the dipstick! I almost collapsed. Though I drove the car home with no issues, I'm still very worried. Would this cause any damage to the engine?
Thanks and appreciate your response. is not going to cause any damage, the oil is going back to the bottom tray |
