Good morning great minds, my 05 Corola sport misfires and went off when idle, changed fuel pumps several times until I diagnose and found the ignita code 1,2,3 faulty. Mechanic said I should get three new coils but I decided to buy the 4. Inserted the 4 but the problem persist, change the plugs too. Now the code flying now are P1300, P1305 and P 1315 igniter. I don't know what to do again. I stopped trying when the rewire guy said he will need another ECU to test run this that the fault is coming from the ECU. Told him to leave it yesterday; I'll seek help. Thanks in advance!

veekid: This fault should be carefully diagnosed. Did you do any repairs before these issues? The wiring should be checked for damaged coil wire. interchange all coils to see if the codes remain the same or earthing issue. See video below https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRof0dGrsro |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by masciv: 12:41am On Oct 24, 2023 |
Grupo: I've done no less than 10 times each for both actions mentioned since the time I got the car. Most times, the problem just slightly reduces or remains the same. It's become rocket science to the mechanics that have handled the car. |

Help. I did not charge my oil since August.noticed it was shorting oil,so I topped with 5w30,5w40,20w50.then I finally serviced the engine with new oil yesterday. Used engine flush and drained the old oil which was charcoal black. Poured the new oil and new filter 5w40. Now it smokes gradually at idle. All spark plugs are good and not wet. What's the solution. Engine compression still strong.should I add resurrs additive |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by jceesquare(m): 5:24am On Oct 25, 2023 |
Angrigowt:Did you run a compression test to get to this conclusion? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Angrigowt: 5:49am On Oct 25, 2023 |
No but rpm on idle is 1200,with ac 1000rpm. When the top cylinder was removed,i could see like sandlike sludge by the sides but top cylinder is goldish colour..could it be from bad oil. The useless engine flush didnot dislodge anything. I felt like using pressure hose to force out all the slidges by rhe edges ofthe cylinder wall. jceesquare: |

My 2008 honda accord (v4) jacks violently when my car changes gears. It does this also when about driving after few hours of parking. I have changed engine seats, fuel pump and it's still the same. Though, the car moves well after the jack. I also scanned (see attached) but still dunno what to do What could be wrong ..kindly advise

Sagaciousd1: These codes are more of MaF and oxygen sensor. Not responsible for jerk but high fuel consumption. Check your CV joint/inner cup. This maybe the culprit. Be careful when replacing it in other not to contaminate your gear. Buy a new joint if the old one is faulty |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by jceesquare(m): 11:24am On Oct 28, 2023 |
temi4fash:Run a compression test (wet and dry) to know if it's the rings of valve stem seals. Or in the absence of a compression tester, hold a steady RPM at 2,500 to see if it smokes or not. |
