My camry 2012 v4 cranks but won't start on first start but on second trial it starts perfectly for the day and this only happens in the morning.. . Please help

The funny thing about this issue is that it seems to happen to everyone... Around November and February... I bet the fuel in the filling stations those period were not good. Just my opinion. Or your car is above 120k miles (typical life of a fuel pump)

Happened to me too. You can change the complete full pump assembly . This would set you back about 20k or close. Honestly it is better than changing this and that which can easily add close to 20k if care is not taken.

Second option is to live with it, start the car twice to get up and go, starter life would be slight affected. The problem is not the pump it self but the ability of fuel pump assembly to retain pressure after sitting a long time/over night {normally handled by the fuel pressure regulator} and unfortunately since your system is a returnless system, putting the key in the on position will not help you build initial fuel pressure.

Several vehicle manufacturers have solved this issue with introducing different techniques of priming the fuel injector lines.

Peugeot, and landrovers prime the fuel line immediately the drivers door is opened, meaning as soon as you open the drivers door, the fuel pump is activated for 10secs then stops. It resumes if vehicle is started.

Honda's, Kia's, Hyundai, and a bunch of American models prime the system when the key is turned to ignition.


These methods all ensure you have a quick start when required at any time.

I personally modified a rav4 2010 recently as i didn't see the need bringing down the fuel tank to replace the FPR and there was a lot of rust under the car. I used the drivers door signal.


In the past the fuel pumps came on immediately ignition was turned on, you get a quick start yes, but if vehicle was involved in an accident, you have a fuel leak, you have a steady flow of fuel which results in a really bad fire.

Is this for a new one or 1st grade used?

GAZZUZZ:

Good morning oga GAZZUZZ and other car gurus in the house.

I have a toyota corolla 2010 and have the following issues.

1) The car has a silencer leakage sound and I had one mechanic look at it and he said it was the outlet manifold gasket he also used the computer on it displayed the following result : C1201

2) The left low beam head light only comes on during the day but goes off at night.

3) The car vibrates a lot wherever I am on high speed and the vibrations increased when I step on the break at speed between 80km./hour to 120km/hoir

GAZZUZZ:
This thread is dedicated to solving car related problems, it will cover all issues feel free to post problems here, Car gurus your posts are welcome and highly appreciated.

adubam:



I can only give you answer to No 3. as a layman.

Have you done wheel balancing and alignment? If not please do.
Secondly if after doing that and the vibration still persist when you step your foot on the brake then do the following:

a) You will need to check your brake pad. Try get a foreign use one, if after this and the vibration still persist then,
b) You may need to change your brake disc.

Good evening

My Toyota Camry 2007 popped the following code

Code: P2017

Mt symptoms were

Poor Acceleration
Stalling
Engine Vibration while idle
Diminished engine performance

On further investigation, I realized that the problem is from the Intake Manifold Runner Valve Controller
I learnt that the Intake Manifold Valve Controller controls the opening and closing of the valves, however, the position sensor which detects if the valves are open or closed seems to have a short circuit so it cannot perform its functions properly, therefore the valves are perpetually open

I have watched videos were the Intake Manifold Runner Valve Controller was replaced on a Dodge on youtube, however, I have not seen one done for a Toyota Camry hence my question, can I replace the Intake Manifold Runner Valve Controller on a Toyota or I have to replace the whole Intake Manifold Runner Valve Assemble

I have attached pictures for a clearer view

Your reply is highly anticipated

Goodday everyone

I have a 2011 camry, bought few month 9ja used.

Slip indicator light is on and check engine light is also on, doesnt go off.

I also noticed that every morning, when i start d car it gives High RPM.

please i need help cos am down with incessant worries.

Please i need help.

I reside in PH.

Please House, does coolant have effect on a car mileage? The reason am asking is because I discovered after adding coolant to my radiator for the first time in January, since then have noticed appreciable increase(improvement) in mileage, infact my car breathes better, covers the same distance with almost half the same litres. Am trying to know what I did right that could cause that significant increase in mileage. Before my Honda pilot covers about 65miles with 30litres, now the same 30litres gives roughly 100miles(this is only city driving with frequent stop and go)

My bro, this kinda thing one can't really tell.... I leave that to the expert in the house....

If I may ask does your temp gauge now read half way as compared to before..!!

.

What I noticed is that it reaches half gauge faster than before. Before it takes more than 10mimutes of driving to reach half gauge, now it takes roughly 2minutes of driving. Though it still slightly below the mid(half) line. Another thing am thinking maybe the weather might be another contributory factor. Since January the weather has been hotter
