GAZZUZZ:


You do not scan a car when you have issues like oil indicator on when running. There will be no related codes.

Check if you have engine oil in the engine .

If you do, then It is a sludge related incident

Good Morning Boss,

Thanks for the other time.

Update:
So i checked for air leaks as advised and i didn't see any though my check might not have been exhaustive. But i discovered that the air filter was not fixed properly and a hose to the engine has the clip on the on the body of the rubber instead of the mouth. So those two were corrected and i cleared the error code. It didn't come up for 3 weeks.

However, it (P0101) came up again on Easter Monday (last week), i cleared it, drove the car for a week. Then the check engine light was up again last night. Same error code P0101.

I also noticed the engine hesitates a little when i try to accelerate or when i want to start it.

Kindly assist.

Hello gurus. My car is a toyota 4 plugs camry 2012.

Sometime this year the car tends to power down when I'm driving ( the engine just goes off). I took it to a mechanic and he cleaned my throttle body, the engine stalling stopped after cleaning the throttle body.

This issue (engine stalling) while driving started again just yesterday. I really don't know what could be causing this.

I took it to a mechanic and he cleaned my throttle body, the engine stalling stopped for about 2 months after cleaning the throttle body.

Start with backwashing in a car wash.

GAZZUZZ:


Replacing oil pump will not solve low oil pressure issues.

You have excessive clearance between crankshaft and bearings.

You need to do a major engine overhaul which will involve replacing the crankshaft or cutting it to next possible size and replacing bearings.

GAZZUZZ:


There is a leak. It is visible, start with water pump

kala111:


Thank you very much Oga Gazzuzz

The issue of engine oil light and knocking sound has been resolved.

What he did was to loosen the engine completely. He changed the bearings and repack the metals with paper together with the crankshaft for a firm grip due to clearance as he said the crankshaft is still ok.

My car seems to work perfectly now but when I start engine in the morning, the car rpm raise high and dropped down gradually below 1000 until it jerks and power off. But when I raise the car for several minutes it picks and work normal.

Also, i noticed its consume fuel and makes a humming sound especially when engine is warm.

What could possibly be the issue again.

Help me out here guys.

My brakes have been acting like they are about to fail lately (not that it doesn't stop when applied but extra force has to be applied)

I brought it to our company's mechanic to help me check it out and this was the result in the picture below, he said he needs to get a new one for 20k, isn't it an overkill?

CsRockefeller:


Please Boss, how do I approach the situation now? The Master and Savo components inside the engine are empty, it shows that he definitely loosed something, at the same time, my brakes are bad. What could be the issue?
