Hello Gazuzz, my 2006 rav 4 takes a while to engage in reverse gear after engaging the auto stick in reverse, what could be the issue? Do I need to replace the gearbox? Do you have an idea how much the gearbox of a RAV4 2-AZ-FE engine automatic transmission would cost? 0pks help. Thanks

Hello gazzuzz,
Please I need your input.we bought toyota Corolla 2000 for my old man.i just got the news that the engine has to be replaced.i was fuming cos car is less than 5years.sequence:Car overheated due to leak on the radiator hose without him knowing.top gasket has been replaced several times yet it still communicates with the radiator.he was told by his mechanic that there is crack on the block that leads to continuous communication. If he changes oil,before morning.it turns white.how much is the engine?what else could be wrong.i dont want to keep spending money on the car without result.i need to know if new engine is the permanent fix.
Thanks

Chief Gazzuzz, I really appreciate the good works you are doing, I noticed coolant loss in the radiator on my Toyota Highlander 2004, took it to the mechanic and he replaced radiator cap, still had same issues and car got overheated, took it back and noticed a leak on the plastic part on the top of the radiator, he replaced the plastic part and still same issue of coolant loss after driving, while washing the car this morning, I noticed lots of coolant on the rear floor behind the front passenger seat, the coolant gets so much and also little around the front passenger just along the door side, but that if the rear floor seems so plenty after driving what could be the cause and solution I would appreciate thanks

Good morning boss. Please I need your professional advice on which to buy. A Camry 2000 or crv 2001/2004. Note: This will be my first car and simply for domestic or family use. Will work mostly on weekends and few days during the week. Also, my area has a lot of bad roads.

Please I am also concerned about the cost of parts and maintenance required. Thank you

Great response. Then which will you recommend for a Nigeria used car with a budget of 700k which is easy to maintain and parts will be affordable? Also taking into consideration the aforementioned points

Do not enter the market with that budget. Only very bad cars.

Gazzuzz,
Apologies if this has been asked before
Are car owners OBD scanners worth it?
If yes, which one is reliable and not too expensive?
Re: ASK GAZZUZZ by Edunwa302(m): 5:32pm On Jul 12, 2019
Pls sir help look into the above scanner sensors result this is a 2007 toyota camry 4cylinder 2AZ the car is very sluggish during acceleration and no fault code detected after scanning.
But i notice the calculated engine load is around 45% at idle is not too high

Also its consumes alot of fuel lately

Boss do not pass me by

Mechanic plugged some hoses together in the engine about 4 of them, of which he said 2 of it was for the front heater and that the other 2 took coolants to the pipes that runs through to the back, vehicle has been test driven with the AC on, so far it hasn’t overheated after few hours of driving, still checking the rear of the passenger floor tomorrow to see if it will be completely dry, Gazzuzz what’s the implication of the hoses plugged together or bypassed, and does this solve the issue completely, thanks for your help

replace so you can control the climate of the cabin. If you like Iceblock, leave it like that.
Re: ASK GAZZUZZ by Teeders(m): 12:14am On Jul 13, 2019
Boss, My uncle's rewire suggested that he should remove the thermostat of his Honda Accord and run the fan directly on the engine,he seeked my opinion on that decision, I asked him uncle first If the car gave him problem of overheating, he said no that vehicle runs fine and from the experience I gathered from following your thread, I told him not to allow the rewire do such that it will make the car consume more fuel ⛽ and the engine will b overworked and won't make it last long, Have I done well? �

Is it this cheap, I did Ekiti to Lagos with 6k on my Highlander (V6 3.0L though), and I did 4k on same trip for my Yaris (1.5L).
Is it possible that corolla is more economical than Yaris?
