Help: Sienna 2006 Engine Problem!! by Eben2: 12:16pm On Jun 04, 2016
I just bought a tokunbo Toyota Sienna 2006 from Coutonu. I went there picked the car myself. I even test-drove it myself and everything was alright.

The agent that brought it from the point of sale said the car engine started making noise after the left the park. They had to push it across to Nigeria. These they didn't tell me until it got to Nigeria.

I later took my mechanic there and he discovered that oil was not supplying into the engine making the crown shaft to go bad. I paid and all that needed to be changed was changed.

I drove it home from the workshop with the AC on and before I got home the noise started again with oil indicator blinking. The mechanic took it back, work on it and told me to drive it for one week without putting on the AC.

I have used it now for one week. I still hear faint noise but not as bad as before. I took it everyday sometimes at a speed of 120 without any issues.

Today, I put on the AC and the noise began to come up again.

What can I do? The car is very neat and cool but this is giving me headaches.

Just like that? Pls note that the engine sounds so well except when you want to accelerate and its movement is very cool. I was thinking something can still be done to correct this issue

Sad story. Sorry Bro. Ur engine is pinging. It makes a rattling noise on addition of load to the engine. Just make sure ur catalyst wasn't removed and wire mesh or some nonsense put in its place. Pinging is usually an early sign of engine death.

Thank you @mecho.

@chukel, does that mean I should change the engine totally as suggested above?

Thanks

u definitely will change that engine, if not now, in future. But before then just check to make sure there is no restriction to exhaust fume. Make sure it's catalyst that is intact u have in ur exhaust system and not a shattered one, wire mesh or some other nonsense.

What exactly did that mechanic change in your engine?, i doubt if that mechanic opened your engine.

Theres no way he will change your krankshaft alone.

Nextime when buying used cars go with your mechanic, it better to pay N10,000= to a mechanic for advice than spend N250k for an engine your not sure off.

Hope you ve learnt your lesson.? cool

You ve been scammed by the car dealer and your mechanic. my condolences.
