Greetings my people..

I have an issue with my 2012 Camry. I noticed yesterday that the R sign on the dashboard blinks when I engage the reverse gear and the vehicle jerks when the reverse gear is engaged as well.

I don’t experience that kick when I shift to Drive, it only occurs when Reverse is engaged.

What’s could be the issue please??

Check ur engine sittings

Pls what could cause 2012
ACURA MDX TO BE DOING THESE

Depends on the car maker's recommendation. But if none, or if they claim lifetime, I advise 30-45k miles or 2 years.

I feel you.
Imagine sending bill to a customer for alternator change on that car and customer looking at you as if you want to reap them off.
Na only God know wetin Valarinze like about that brand.

They're relatively easy to diagnose and fix

They're safe, all my years doing Volvo, I've not had a customer who had an accident in one and sustained bodily harm not to talk of death and believe me there's been so many incidents and many total wrecks

I don't have to worry about who's going to steal my car(this is what led me to discover the brand in the first place)

Cost of parts are also relatively cheap compared to most competitors

The drive performance is fantastic, good speed, good balance at high speeds and fantastic handling too

I don't like following the crowd, I prefer doing something different and excelling at it


Only problem now is, fg and NCS are trying their best to run us off the market, it costs double the figure to clear a Volvo XC90 now compared to say Highlander/pilot of same year and it keeps rising everytime. Same with the sedans and CUVs, the cost of clearing them are so high now it's looking like a deliberate conspiracy of some sorts

I intentionally mentioned you cos you're the only Volvo die hard fan I've known on this space .
No doubt Volvo is a better car (just like most European cars) when compared to their Japanese counterpart (I don't understand the craze with Asian brands honestly).
But from a mechanic point of view, it's not profitable to work on.

Good day everyone. I recently bought a Nigerian used Honda EOD and the engine was smoking after servicing. So i asked the mechanic to buy a tokumbo engine. After two weeks of him "working on it" i took delivery of the car yesterday. While driving home, i noticed the car wouldn't exceed 20mph/gear 2 and it jerks once in a while. One of the engine mount/sitting is bad. COuld this be as a result of that or any other underlying cause?

Was the car experiencing this acceleration issue before work was done on the car?

Ok its normal with Suzuki

Good afternoon everyone,
Yesterday I noticed that my kick is faulty so I decided to take my car to First Gate at ikeja to fix. But after fixing the kick the technician detect that enough power wasn't supplied into the gear so he decided to check so he said I will need a relay to make it work because one pin has broken from the fuss that supplies power to the gear.
Now he has put relay. The problem now is that my car start not only on P or N again it starts on any gear. Please hope I'm save.

Hmmmm, nurey, conner, should we tell him?

Help! Help!

Here's the issue: my Kia Optima started getting hot, and I noticed that the radiator was clogged. I took it to a repair shop to have it fixed. After it was fixed, I started driving home and began experiencing sudden jerks when putting the car in reverse or drive.

So, I had the car scanned, and an error came up. However, the problem now is that the mechanic attempted to clean the mentioned component, and the car is driving well now. However, there is still a delay and jerking when putting it in reverse.

Has anyone else experienced this or know what I can do about it?

Thanks.

No you're not.
Your car is not supposed to start that way.
Tell him to revert back to the way it was

Did he drain the transmission oil when removing the radiator or he blocked the transmission line with a plug?

If he drained then refill, probably he might have contaminated the system in the process. Same with using a dirty plug on the transmission line.
What codes did he get when it was scanned?

You didn't show us the scan results.

People don't know the radiator is linked to the gear/transmission. As the person above me has said, it could have been contaminated. During the process of removal and fixing the radiator, thee part linking the gear may have been contaminated with either sand, water or dirty particles etc.

The best thing now is to drain the gear oil and refill with original

I know someone experiencing this same issue up till now with his MDX 09.

He has changed....
Kick starter
Temperature sensor etc
Anything changeable and still no solution.

And his engine is still steaming fine.
He his tired and exhausted. Already parked the car.

Car do not have any fault code but he's suspecting if the engine bearing is faulty.
Maybe that's the problem, he's just tired.

Any solution to yours?

Car is driving good and will only start when engine is cool, sometimes luckily it start when hot, but na luck o.

Does it crank at all when the issues manifest itself?
If it does crank, then it's not a mechanical problem like the bearings and more of an electrical issue.
His technician needs to use his test lamp to check for pulse and current on his Injectors, and crank/cam sensors before dem go jump enter brain box (e no dey hard dem).

Not sure, he did any of that to be honest

Same situation with the video that I first quoted boss.

When the engine is hot, it will feel like it crank a little but will not crank well to start.
Hard rolling.
During that time the battery head terminal will be very hot.

ReformerD:

How did he now remove the radiator for repairs if he didn't disconnect and plug the transmission lines?
Kindly check if there are any hose dangling and not connected to the transmission and or radiator.
What year is your Optima?
Does it have a dip stick?

Typical ground related issues.
Ask your friend to trace all ground wires from negative battery terminal to body, engine, then transmission and tighten any loose connections well.
He should also use a sand paper to scrap off rusty surface on his ground point, use a better cable (if cable is bad) and also tighten well so he'll have good contact point.

That thing no resemble grounds issue, the juicr to the crank is sufficient enough judging from the crank power sound and brightness of the dash.


I may be wrong tho

We could be wrong and right at the same time as none of us has access to the car but attempting to diagnose the fault remotely.
But since it attempts to turn the engine (even with a charged battery according to the post I responded to) but the lights on the dash keeps flickering that way, then I strongly believe he has a bad ground somewhere or a shot to ground (considering the fact that the battery terminals gets hot).

Thank you the boss

I just asked him and said all wires and cables both on the engine and grounded wires are intact.
His mechanic and electrician as checked all wire related issue.

How did they check the bolded?
With a multimeter?
If not, ask them to use a multimeter to check all connections to know if there are voltage drop on any of the grounds.
If all is fine then I've run out of options diagnosing remotely.
