Good day,

I have a 2006 camry, one day I forgot to close the radiator cover and traveled, gasket got burnt and I changed it.

After which car work very fine but frequently the coil (plug coin) got burnt, I have changed up to 6 now (4 plug engine)

Another thing I noticed was that the radiator water do go down every morning when I check, like I have to top it with plenty water and no sign of water leakage but temperature was normal.

Also the car wasn’t firing very well again, we tried changing coil and plug but still it doesn’t fire when doing slow, except on speed that it fires well.


Few weeks back, I did a small trip and I got a high temperature that I had to park, let it cool down, put water and all, same thing when I was coming back.

Mechanic said I should change my single cell radiator to double which I did immediately.

Today I did another trip and I haven’t even gone far and got high temperature, I stoped and let it cool down and added water, moved a bit then same when I checked top gasket has burnt again (water inside the oil)

I had to get another car to travel, car is still at the mechanic on the road (had to tow it to a nearby mechanic)

GAZZUZZ:


You have cylinder damage, and compression issues.

Replace or resurface head cylinder.

Replace all ignition coils.

Thanks boss,

I also what to ask, now that I will have to change the gasket again, making it the second time, do you advice I just do away with the car? Some people say after changing gasket that the engine is gone

weyreypey:

Leave those cars alone. Manual automatic or semi automatic

Please help with a possible diagnosis. I drive a Honda Accord 2008. It vibrates slightly through the pedals to the steering at about 2000rpm & 40km/hr.
There isn’t any vibration before or after 40km/hr.
This just started about 2weeks ago.

Galil:

Recommended engine oil is 5w20.
Don't touch the gear oil yet.
I will suggest you leave the power steering fluid too but you can refer to the owners manual for the recommended fluid.

Happy new month Grate GAZZUZZ. Oga mi sir I got 07 Civic recently. I noticed that the fan won't work until I on my AC and temperature will run to almost 50 percent. And secondly when I check the service history sticker. It stated that the next service is going to 130,600. But am still having 128.340 on my speedometer . does that mean I should wait till 130.600? . thanks sir

Happy New Month Gazzuzz,
Thanks for what you do selflessly.

Please, my MIL has a Hyundai Accent that recently doesn’t accelerate well. It began with jacking occasionally and the Fuel Pump and Plugs were changed.

When it persists, and tend to stall and lags when picking up, the Gear Oil was changed later it was scanned but NOTHING was found as the problem.

No it’s slow to pickup and when ascending, it lags that one has to so pressure to climb and yet move like a snail which wasn’t the case before.

Please kindly help on what can be done.

Thanks

Hello Gazzuz, please what engine oil do you recommend for a 2009 matrix with about 100m on the speedometer

GAZZUZZ:

stephenponti:
Good day GAZZUZZ.
I have had this car for about a year bought tokumbo Camry 03 v6. Gear 13pin I changed the gear oil and filter when I bought it.
On the advice of someone using same vehicle spec I used Oando dextron II.
I changed the gear oil and filter again about 6wks ago after I noticed it delays few seconds and jecks when i engage the gear.
Today's it just raved without power while in motion. If I switch the engine off and on it becomes normal for few minute then rev again without power.

I went to scan it brought these codes

P0746
Pressure control solenoid 'A' Performance or Stuck Off.

P0776
Pressure control solenoid 'B' Performance or Stuck Off.

Can solenoids be repaired or changed please


Or could it be the type of oil I used.

Kindly help with any possible way to fix this issue

I really have no means at the moment to buy another gear.

Artelle:



Thanks for the response Gazzuzz

It’s 2012 Hyundai Accent

Moreover, the Injector has been serviced (not dirty)
Nozzle also serviced
Gear Oil Drained
Gear Oil Filter changed
Coil Changed

Having changed and done those things, the Scan indicated low pressure inside Gear.

Thanks

GAZZUZZ:

you cannot have 13pin in a 2003. Check again.
Replace the transmission, this one is toast.

Good morning sir
The mechanic just worked on my break master and sov
And immediately I collected the car , the car stalls on reverse . I took it back to the mechanic and he told me that maybe it’s because the battery was removed . So the car lost its settings , that I should strive it, it will pick up
I’m suspecting he tampered with something , my car has never stopped and idled before only after giving the mechanic
