Sankabson:
Good evening House,

Driving a 2011 Camry, recently the engine do turn off while in motion/driving. I’ll have to park and start again.

At a point, I was told it’s the Fuel Pump, it was changed, same issue. Later the battery couldn’t start the car again. I was advised to changed that too, which I did, a Brand new one. But I’m having the same issue.

Car still turn off while driving. I’ll have to park and start again, which always come back on at the first kick..


And also, I noticed this part of the Engine is open, I don’t if it’s normal. I just got the car Tokunbo.

Picture of the engine attached.

I Scanned The Car;

P0101
P0171

Thanks in advance

That open hole has a slim bottle that creates turbulence in air flow, that’s the place from which metered air that goes past the MAF leaks out from and causes imbalance in air that goes to the combustion chamber. Either get the slim bottle and install or block the hole completely and you’d be fine.

Edit: it’s called an air intake resonator (na so oyinbo call am)

Hello, my Lexus rx350 side mirrors have been stolen twice . After the first time it was stolen, I put my plate number on it, and now it has been stolen again. I can’t keep changing side mirrors everytime with almost 100k.
What can I do to prevent this from happening again ? Or even catching the culprit?
This happened in the same place where I do park my car.
