Pls oo. I have codes p0016, p0018 and p0300 on lexus es 300. Car is running fine. During replacement of crankshaft oil seal, the engine was brought down and as it was being coupled mechanic said the timing belt it has seems to be failing. I told him I have no problems with the timing belt. He showed me some degradation on the belt body and said it may fail when I least expected and put me in huge mess. I said they should change the belt. A new belt was installed, I traveled and i was using it for about 2-3 weeks and one day this belt cut on the road. I called the closes mech to replace the belt and after he did, I found out I have these codes. They show pending and after I clear and scan again the p0018 is showing both bending and confirmed while p0016 and p0300 are both showing pending. I got the car toks, for 2 years now no problems and it runs great. But I want to sell it and acquire RX350 2011 but I am worried it has these codes make I no sell bad car give person. I called the guy that fixed the belt he is an illiterate, was saying I should not worry but I told him I no like this code. He went under, taped some wires and told me all is well. I cleared codes, drove to my house and scanned and i no see the codes only to get the codes back next day. What I do not understand is why I am having random misfires only after belt replacement.

phurlar: The first indicator means one or more of your tires is low in air pressure. Try to guage your tires to the recommended pressure. Include the spare tire also because some do carry pressure sensor. The second indicator means there is a pending error code on the ECU, try to scan the car through the OBD port to get the error codes and paste it here for Oga Gazzuzz to interprete and tell us possible solutions. Hope this helps. |

Mr Gazzuz I really need your advice coz I am confused now. I bought a 4zz engine for my 2008 Corolla(manual gear). The engine was mounted and when they tried starting the car, it wasn't bringing current. After all said and done, they discover the brain box was faulty which they recommend that conversion of brain box should be done since we couldn't find a good brain ordering for it twice. After the conversion was done, they tried starting the car it will come up and then the current will sieze without it steaming. When the electrician tested all the injector, it flashes light like 3 times and then seize. We have tried all we could even changing counting from B to F but no head way. Kindly advise. |

Daniwise12: Remove this from the old engine, put it inside the new engine, return old brainbox back, return all wiring back. 8 Likes

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Zamorano14(m): 10:26pm On Jul 18, 2022 |
Good evening house, pls my Lexus Rx330 keeps making squeaking sound which makes me think the alternator belt needs to be changed but after Changing the belt, the sound still continues, so my mechanic said to lubricate the bearings with oil as that should be the cause of the squeaking sound because the bearings are dry. After lubricating the bearings, this squeaking sound still persists and even more louder this time but the mechanic said to keep driving it for a while as the bearings are not rhymed well yet with the lubricant, that immediately they are rhymed with the lubricant, the sound will stop. Please help on how to fix this, as this sound is so embarrassing while driving |
