Good morning, I jus changed my radiator from single to a new double cell due to leakage from the single cell radiator. Thermostat is still intact and single fan inclusive(not connected directly) After driving the car on Saturday, Sunday morning I checked the water level in the radiator and saw the water is low, so I opened the coolant plastic and saw that the water there has overfilled more than the FULL level its meant to attain, which means that the excess of the water in the coolant plastic is meant to go back into the radiator when engine is cool and it didn't. Does that mean the car would likely overheat. Would love to hear your advise pls....When I called the mech, he said I would need to remove thermostat and connect far directly which am against.The car is a year old and it's a corolla 05 model..would love your inputs so as to take necessary precaution against the unforseen. |

Gazzuzz and other heroes in this forum.... I greet o. I need you guy's opinion on this issue. 2001 QX4 3.5L VQ35 Fuel consumption increased significantly since last week. Black exhaust smoke at start up (both warm and cold start). car idles erratically but drives perfectly in motion. This minute it's normal, the next second, the RPM will drop as low as 300 and goes back to 750 after like 3-5 seconds and the cycle continues. Car drives very fine but idles poorly and erratically (up and down) especially in traffic. Spark plug inspection showed black smoke on plug 1. Car was scanned. I didn't quite note down the DTC but the interpretation is Oxygen sensor Sensor 2 bank 1. Live data brought up the following (pic attached) Auto elect said I should come for change of oxygen sensor tomorrow. I will appreciate your inputs before I go ahead and spend

Gallass: More information required. Repair history also required. What did you fix last? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 6:17pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
themonk: 2engines. One is very clear I4 (2ar) The other is hiding V6 (2GR) Which one |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by themonk(m): 6:26pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
GAZZUZZ:Thanks, it’s the V4, I was able to see pictures online and find it. Thank you very much. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Gallass(m): 6:32pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
GAZZUZZ:I changed my throttle body last week due to the same issue. Idle RPM was unstable that necessitated the changed. Prior to the throttle body change, MPG was okay. No black smoke. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 6:40pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
Gallass: Any work done prior to this? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Gallass(m): 6:54pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
GAZZUZZ:Absolutely none. MAF was changed last year. It has been okay all these while. Just started erratic idle in January. Have changed throttle body thrice... all to no avail. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 7:12pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
Gallass: Possible vacuum leak. Start from scratch, check intake, injector seals and every channel that uses the vacuum lines. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Gallass(m): 7:31pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
GAZZUZZ: okay. My evaporative cannister box at the rear quarter panel is broken though. I do not know (I don't think anyway) if it can be a possible cause because it was broken when it was shipped from the US and it ran fine then |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 7:37pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
Gallass: it will only be a problem if your evap purge valve is stuck open. |
