Oga gazzuzz, please help. My 2007 Camry doesn’t start after driving it for some time. I have changed the battery and alternator and the issue remains the same. I recently scanned it and have attached the report. The car was working well before but recently developed this fault. It starts well when I want to go out and after allowing it warm/after driving it for some time, if I put off the engine and try to start it again, it doesn’t start. It is after I allow it cool for some minutes that it then starts, please help.

GAZZUZZ:


Last time I saw a hybrid, it didnt come with an Alternator.

please explain further with pics of engine bay.

djaxz4sure:


It was converted from hybrid years ago and has been working perfectly well before this issue came up

GAZZUZZ:


I am sorry there's nothing I can do from here.

REDDEVILS1:
Good morning GAZZUZZ. Was driving yesterday, the check engine light came on so i had it scanned this morning. The result is P0420. Please whats the cause and solution

GAZZUZZ:


@ 3500 rpm you should be at around 120km/hr. Check Transmission

Otenzy:

Okay I will have it looked at. Is there any point mentioning to you that its a manual transmission?

GAZZUZZ:


if manual then problem is not from transmission.

GAZZUZZ:


Leaking exhaust or faulty Catalytic converter on bank1.

Otenzy:

I was looking around online, on one forum, someone said he had the same issue. He was advised to change the pulleys and the problem was rectified. What do you think?

GAZZUZZ:


Leaking exhaust or faulty Catalytic converter on bank1.

REDDEVILS1:
thanks boss. Will go check for leaks. I hope its leaks though. Catalyst Converter will be expensive to fix. Will there be effect on MPG or movement of the car if its a faulty Catalyst converter?

House question.

Would you work on a car with no VIN (either removed or partly scratched off) AND the owner couldn't produce the papers?

GAZZUZZ:


water came in from the radiator. Heat transfer lines. you have a leak. transmission will need a teardown.

i contacted kazeem to check the radiator and he was surprise to see that the water is actually from there, now he is talking of servicing of brainbox and working on the gearbox

kindly advise pls

thanks

GAZZUZZ:


as long as you not changing the colour, do your work, and write an invoice.

Collect customer info and compare to vehicle docs.

Meanwhile every kia rio 05-11 sold in nigeria as brand new did not come with a VIN plate, just paper stickers that ware off with time. Nothing engraved any where.

will you avoid all of them?

Good Morning Mr Gazzuzz! Please My Toyota Corolla had a engine timing chain snap which I tried to fix and the vehicle started having the problem of jerking when braking or engaging the gear. And most at times going off when trying to engage gear.

I have bought new tok engine but the problem braking yerking still persist. My plug and fuel nozzles are all in tack, Transmission fluid has also been changed. Though I changed the engine cos of unusual noise. Please I need an auto expert to guide me on the trouble shooting options for my mechanic. Thanks
