2012 Toyota highlander has error code, p0345, flashing vsc, check engine, trac lights on and poor fuel economy. Cable to the camshaft position sensor had issues and was repaired, and cleared but it comes back after sometime. Sensor swapped with one working on similar car and one removed from car put in another car but behaviour still same. Sensor ruled out too. What else can one check?

Thanks

V6 3.5


Since you have ruled out the possibility of a defective cam sensor, you are left with 3 other options.

* Engine ecu
* Timing is off
* The actual intake camshaft bank2 is defective.

Pic below shows the correct location on a V6 engine incase you have been troubling the wrong thing.

It's good to start from easy to hard when troubleshooting .

The rattling noise is it constant or only at startup.

I am tempted to assume a failed Variable timing actuator.
Your engine has just one.

Re: ASK GAZZUZZ by SpaceAngel: 8:35am On Jun 28, 2022
Thanks, looks like I'll check the first two later.

Please help, my honda civic 2008 has gear problem, after I scanned it, I got the following code, P0752 shaft solenoid A stuck on, P0777 pressure solenoid A stuck on and P0797 pressure solenoid C stuck on. The car can't go beyond 30km/h and the gear will slip off. My mechanic advice I change the gear box which I did but the problem persist even with the new gear box. I rescanned the car and I still got same code. Please what could be responsible for the problem and how to I solve it. The D light will start to blink after a while but if you stop n start again the blinking stop n start again after a while.

Good day @Gazzuz I drive a 06 Camry 2.4. I was on my way to work when I heard a loud rattling noise in the engine and oil pressure light came on, took it to the mechanic and he changed the oil (Mobil 2000 5w30) and filter, then cleaned the oil pan/sump and oil filter. Next day the engine started shaking, used a scanner and saw it was no 2 coil, I replaced it and it worked. On the third day, after a long drive, the car goes off when I slow down or attempt a turn. I have the serviced injector as mechanic advised but still, please help

Oh, the mechanic said The engine oil pump is faulty need replacement. And the bearings need to be replaced to but advise he want to check if no damages to crank shaft first.

Replace VTC actuator
@gazzuzz can this be replaced alone or with the camshaft.

Pls Do you have an idea how much it cost to buy the VTC actuator

Hello Gazzuzz

I need your candid advice on an issue I have been deliberating upon for some time now. I recently bought a Toyota Camry 2005, V4 which I personally plan to use for E-hailing aka Uber and Bolt. The tires that came with it are the normal iron wheels 205/65 R15 which I feel is too low, so I have decided to change the wheels to Alloy rims and change the tires to either 16R or 17R so as to get better ground clearance.

Now my question is, would changing the tires/rims to something higher like 16" or 17" affect the stability or balance of the vehicle when in motion? I don't want to tamper or raise the shocks as is the practice that is why I opted to get higher tires & rims.

Are there hazardous disadvantages or risks of using higher than specified tires/rims?

Your candid and expert advise would be very welcomed.Thank you

Hi Gazzuzz,

I just got a hyundai sante 2015 GLS. It being driven from the port and the driver stopped for fuel and the car didnt start again. All the lights came up but the engine didnt kickstart, had to tow it home.

Rewire said it is the kickstarter. What do you think?
Re: ASK GAZZUZZ by shonawalker: 9:34am On Jul 09, 2022
Hello GAZZUZZ,
I have a Honda Civic 2008. for over a year now I sometimes tend to hear a rattle noise coming from the engine side while accelerating specifically at low rpm towards 2000rpm when about shifting into second gear. There's no engine stall or power loss. I use fully synthetic oil 5w20 oil only. No CEL, several mechanic have checked and said the engine is fine nothing is wrong, I'm just confused. This does not happen in neutral or park but only while driving and when it engine is warmed up, especially when the thermostat is fully open at 98 degrees celsius and the fans come on, I use my scanner to monitor this vital. I have replaced the thermostat, changed coolant, flush radiator etc (I use Honda 50/50 type 2 coolant).


Since this only happens when driving, its difficult to pin point the exact location of the problem.
One time i tried draining all the fuel in the system and refilling with fuel from a different filling station. I noticed i wasn't hearing the noise anymore for a while until one day. I have tried octane booster, injector cleaners even cleaned it the injectors and the entire fuel system.

One mech said it might be a tiny leak from to top gasket, that it might be internal heat, since this only happens when its fully warmed up. I'm just confused. There is no coolant leak or anything, no smoking, engine is still quiet and sound.

P.S The rattle noise sounds like a car that's overheating and the gas pedal is pressed, but this car is not over heating(temp gauge never gets to the middle). I noticed using AC helps to reduce the chances of the rattle since the temperature hardly exceed 78 degrees celsius when the AC is on.

If I'm to describe the sound thoroughly I would say it sounds this way "ggrrrrr". Just for a short period of time ,1 -2 seconds and only happens when I step on the gas pedal at low rpm


Please I need help and suggestions. Thanks and sorry for the long write up.
