Good evening house, my corrola 02 suddenly jerks and stops when I'm in a hold up or slowing down. I've changed the injector. Another mechanic says that I need to get another injectors. Please help.

First of all kindly provide more info.
Does this vehicle switch off only when you're in hold up?
If you despress the throttle a little bit while in traffic does it still die?
Why did the Mechanic suggest another injector? Did he diagnose it himself?


Your answer will help us give more accurate advice of how to go about he diagnosis.
Dirty throttle body (most likely), dirty or clogged injectors could also show these symptoms.

Thanks Boss for giving me ears and God bless.

Does this vehicle switch off only when you're in hold up?
When I've driven for almost 2 hours is when I start noticing these signs. The car starts to jerk and %80 of the time it switches off and I have to restart it. It restarts instantly.

Why did the Mechanic suggest another injector?
It was given to different mechanic to check and he advised I change the injector which is just 3 weeks old

If you despress the throttle a little bit while in traffic does it still die?
Yes, It starts to occur after a long drive.

Did he diagnose it himself?

Yes, a different mechanic entirely

I also noticed that after I've driven for a long time, when I throttle up after slowing mostly in traffic or tollgates, the car fails to pickup. I have to wait a while or switch the car off and on it back.

Bosses I need ur help o.

Please scan the car and state the error codes here.

In the time being, you can check your air inflow filters too. With our dusty weather, they might be clogged and not giving the proper air mix.

there is definitely a component failing when the engine is hot. a failing crankshaft/camshaft sensor or some other components sometimes exhibits this symptoms. however based on my knowledge, cases like this can be correctly diagnosed while the fault is being exhibited. i would advice you visit a competent mechanic to help you check this vehicle.
to rule out fuel pump, you can carry out a fuel pressure test when it fails.

Hello Everyone,

I notice my gear would take time before it shift sometimes I rev up to 4 rpm and stay for a while about 3 mins before it shifts although not everytime.

I also notice the engine sometimes vibrates when I use the brakes in traffic and stops momentarily before it begins to move again.

Lastly, When am accelerating the car would sometimes jerk a lil before it begins to move..

Please what could be wrong??

The car is a Honda City 2007.

when last did you service your transmission? if you did was it with the recommended oil or otherwise?

I also notice the engine sometimes vibrates when I use the brakes in traffic and stops momentarily before it begins to move again.
could be as a result of misfire, bad spark plugs, clogged injectors, bad engine mounts or some other things. needs to be diagnosed.

Lastly, When am accelerating the car would sometimes jerk a lil before it begins to move..
bad engine mounts, tranmission failure, misfire, weak ignition spark ect

Please what could be wrong??
alot could be wrong and just one thing could be wrong. find a competent tech to help you with diagnosing your vehicle.

no problem.. pls note by diagnosis i do not mean just scanning. scanning is only one of the many steps to be taken during diagnosis. It also involves carrying out tests and some other stuffs to confirm whats really wrong with the system.

My car is displaying check engine light on dashboard. just scanned it and I got 3 errors out of which 2 were wiped out but the P0340 refused to go and the check engine light is still on. The automec guy told me the remaining one will need to be access thoroughly and is not computer work. Anyone with idea? I need solution asap.

Please take Ford & Mazda out of those cars if you don't want to loose your sanity. They're beauty to behold with eye catching interiors but when their electrical problems start, you'll hate yourself.

i strongly disagree with this. Electrical problems are not the issue. Every single car has electrical problems. However i must admit some vehicles show less problems compared to others.
I believe Finding a technician that understands how these systems work, correctly diagnosing the issue and fixing it correclty is the problem.
Although i must still confess some cars are sent from hell grin but still i dont subscribe to the believe that certain brands make bad products while others dont. Thats false.
