Last pictures, I thought you might like to see inside the Florida distribution center. Each Carquest/Advance distribution center carries $20-40 MILLION in parts at any given time.

Yes, that is the famous Glen with the dreadlocks.

Good day.

My old man has a 1999 Avalon... 1MZ-FE non vvti.

He complained oil burning and later, engine smoking. Mechanic recommended engine change but old man wasnt ready to spend on the car again as he had other options. The car has been parked since two years or so.

I wish to restore it now and I'm leaning towards engine rebuild over engine replacement because if I buy new engine and if sludge builds up again, how many engines would one have to buy?

My questions:
1. Its obvious the present engine has been heavily sludged. Having been parked so long over two years, can the engine still be rebuilt?

2. If it can be rebuilt, I dont want to use regular engine oil as the engine is prone to sludge. Can I use full synthetic oil with a rebuilt 1MZ-FE engine?

1) we would have to see it to be able to make that call

2) you could but what is recommended for his car is actually not synthetic but conventional 5w30

Thank you for your response. Vehicle is located in ipaja

Do I have to snap the engine bay or drop the engine and haul it to your workshop or tow the car to your workshop?

preferred is to tow it but do me a favor and email support@radautoworks.com with the issues and specifically request they show Glen the email. Include any pictures you may have.

Awon "replace geng" are not going to like this

This is why we don't like remote diagnosis and I tend not to answer diagnosis questions on NL- well that and I'm tired of providing free education to the same "gurus" who insult me only to turn around and use the same knowledge they condemned.

Bring the car for us to lay hands on and then we can tell you the problem. Even brain box sef dem don change

This car actually belongs to a NLer. Repair bill was 1.3m but customer brought their own parts so labor came to about 200k. Repairs are ongoing.

Now this 2012 Hyundai Elantra boggled the mine with the number of missing bolts in the engine compartment

Will update once repairs are complete

Ford fusion and Toyota Camry both with the same AC problem. How one screws up an ECU because of an AC problem is beyond me

In case you didn't know, we specialize in AC- especially undoing botched jobs.
