Good morning, please my car model is:
Toyota Corolla Bank type
Year: 2005
Engine type: 1ZZ
Gear: NINE (9) PIN
My car is not changing from gear 3 to 4 and 5. After scanning the scanner said it's a sensor in the gear body valve and I bought another body valve yet it's still not changing, now an electrician is telling me that it's the BRAIN BOX that is causing the gear not to select 4 and 5, please I need solutions thanks

HENCEFORTH, YOU TOO CAN GIVE YOUR WOMAN ADDICTIVE S*XUAL PLEASURE AND CONFIDENTLY FEEL TEN TIMES ‘MANLIER’ WITHOUT ANY POTENTIAL SIDE EFFECTS STARTING FROM TONIGHT WITH REWIRE COMBO.
Question 1 – How many minutes do you really last before you release your sperm when you make love to a woman? Question 2 – Is your joystick size bigger than 4inches when erect? Question 3 – Do you get erections when you wake up in the morning and do you get proper erections at the point of having s*x? If you answered NO to these 3 questions, that is a sign to an UNHEALTHY joystick. Let’s face it, millions of Nigerian men are suffering from one of these 3 problems, and they mostly have what I call a “pen*s attack”. But you know the main problem? Your wife or fiancée will start getting disappointed about your poor sxual performance and she will stop having s*x with you. Especially when you have given up on yourself to find solutions to your problem. Even worse, she will soon be tempted to cheat on you with another man that can satisfy her. So what should you do? ACT FAST and solve these 3 main problems that causes lot of men embarrassment and shame in the bedroom. BENEFIT OF REWIRE COMBO:
1)It improves s*xual Function and Drives in Male and Female.
2)it helps to increase stamina and energy in Men and women.

3)it helps to rapidly buildup sprm count in Men.

4)it increases libdo in Men.

5)it helps the adequate circulation of blood to the extremities of the body that help in sustaining maximum hard rock Erection.

6)it increase size from 3/4inches within two weeks
7) customers above 40years old with prostate challenge will be fully restored

Complete set for age 40above #130,000
Age below 30years #82,000

ello everyone.

My transmission fluid mixed with coolant and the gear fluid was flushed out. Car is Honda accord 2007.

Temporarily, the cooler was bypassed.

What are my options:

Continue with the bypass?

Buy an external cooler? How much?

Change radiator?

Please I need comments from seasoned professionals.......

The throttle body (injector mouth) might be dirty require to be clean.
Too much load can be the cause too possibly a manual compressor has been install on the car.
Need to be inspect physically since you said you have scan no code.
Or better still have a bigger scanner to scan the car.
You can reach out if u are in lagos for propal inspection

Find someone with an high end scanner to scan it thoroughly, ask for maintenance records (yeah, i keep mine), test drive for no less than 30 mins with AC running, check the fluids (trans and engine).
Check for leaks beneath the car, if the engine bay appears washed then there's a reason to be more careful, listen for sounds like power steering whine, check if it starts up immediately or needs two to three cranks, look at the mpg readings while test driving and see if its not far from manufacturer's values, check if car doesn't smoke, check the state of the tyres ( look for uneven wears).
Check for common abuse like radiator fan being connected directly, car starting in drive and so on, and lastly the documentation of the vehicle, before all i have stated, check the vin to have an idea what state it came in when it was imported.
These are the things to be done, may you find a good one 👍🏾

How the hell will your trans oil get to mix with radiator coolant?
And what do you mean by"Cooler"?! the fan?

There is a heat exchanger inside the radiator at the bottom. Trans oil enters it and leaves via a pipe to cool the oil.

If the pipe leaks coolant and trans oil mixes.
