Larry1959: Before I give you a solution, what jobs did you recently do on your suspension (car legs) The beep is a warning , you cannot be driving that fast with steering pointing in such angles . Modified. Take your car to an alignment place and ensure they centre your steering and align. After they are done , do this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnGNqAiNhZo If you still have issues, scan the car and post the suspension codes here. |

GAZZUZZ:Thanks Gazzuzz. No misfire code. Since we have transmission codes too, could it be that the transmission ECU too is bad? Other than the fuel in the exhaust car is in limp mode. on engaging D it jumps straight to 3. |

b2212: What year is this Mazda 5 and which engine do you have on it? The sensor codes looks to me like a missing 5Volts reference circuit supplied from the ECU, the other codes are 12 volts controlling the transmission solenoids and A/F sensor heater circuits. I can only help you if I know the exact car make, year, model and engine on it. Thanks, AutoJando |

Hello Dears. Pls i need advise, I went for transmission oil change for my Toyota Matrix 2005, i requested that my mecho to used type T-IV but he said all d ones around are fake. He ended up using Total dextron 3 mv. Immediately after change, an error code P2716 popped up after scanning. This error wasn't there originally. Is there anything to worry about, is my transmission safe? |

Hello guys I have a Lexus rx350 2011 The check engine light and traction control light are on. When I scanned it I got the following codes P043E, P043F, P2401, P2402 and P2419 Checked online and saw it had something to do with EVAP emissions. How can I fix this ? Secondly, anytime I go over rough roads or bumps I hear a very annoying rattling noise in my wheels. I also hear some squeaky sounds at the front of the car sometimes, the squeaky sounds come and go, mostly comes after driving fast on rough/ uneven roads Thirdly, I think my car consumes a lot of fuel. I fill up to about 70Litres and this lasts me for about 245miles Mostly city driving How do I fix all this @everyone ? cc GAZZUZZ , Bizzyliss |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by theadeola: 5:33pm On Jun 12, 2023 |
Hello guys. I have an annoying ticking sound at the top of my engine that is only audible when i take the black engine cover off. The car is a 2003 matrix. I scanned the car for the ignition timing to know if the timing was the issue, but its not. Timing is fine, and I'm not sure what is causing this ticking sound. When i rev the car, the sound 'disappears' till the engine is back at normal idle speed. Oil color is golden brown, level is fine also. Please what can be the issue? |

theadeola: What you are hearing is just the movement of your camshafts against the valves. How's it annoying? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by theadeola: 8:30pm On Jun 12, 2023 |
Grupo: It wasn't there until about a week ago, or at least that's when I started noticing it. I thought it might fade or something, so I watched it for a week. Still there, though car runs fine. I just want a very quiet engine ![]() |
