9icetoo: Yes....that was some months before the coolant was added. No improvement in mileage then. It was exactly after coolant was added that I saw improvement in mileage |

9icetoo:That might be the most logical explanation for it. Thanks |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by dicksonadams(m): 7:52am On Mar 05, 2021 |
flecho: Do you notice any coolant leak after parking? Or do you need to top off coolant? Some batch of 8th Gen Civic do have crack engine block issue which can cause coolant leaks and overheating issues. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by flecho: 8:05am On Mar 05, 2021 |
dicksonadams: no coolant leak or crack, I don't top coolant 10x |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by dicksonadams(m): 8:09am On Mar 05, 2021 |
flecho: Any check engine Light? If yes, Has it been scanned? Could point to the cause. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Observer007(m): 8:11am On Mar 05, 2021 |
Gazzuzz and gurus in the house, please what's the difference between automatic transmission fluid (for automatic trans) and transaxle oil? Are they different, for same or different purposes? Do all cars require both, if they're different? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by flecho: 10:14am On Mar 05, 2021 |
dicksonadams: no check light, |

Good evening Oga GAZZUZZ and all other engineers in the house. Please assist with the following codes on my 2008 Toyota Camry. Late last year, it was threw up error code P0101, then later P0172. I did little research and decided to change the air filter, then clear the error codes. All seems fine until early February when it threw check engine light again. Did further research and i decided to clean the MAF and throttle body. After, the cleaning, the codes went off and there was improvement in fuel consumption. Unfortunately, 3 weeks after, that is on Monday of this week, both codes came back on. And even when i clear them, once i switch off the engine for a while and start again, the check engine light comes up immediately. Kindly assist Sirs.

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/hour |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by blazetitov: 5:49am On Mar 07, 2021 |
GAZZUZZ: Thanks boss. Will check and revert. |

DdenslordD:Had this experience last time on my 09 camry. Changed 2 shafts, replacements didnt come with Abs sensors...kazeem was unable to fix new sensors correctly due to rust....so many errors came up ABS CeL Speedometer error Brake shaking. Kazeem said the car will be scanned. I refused and pointed him back to sensor. He brought a rewire who said he ll perform Electronic BLEEDING on the car. I refused. He got tired. Another mechanic confirmed its linked to the AbS sensor. Las las everything became OK |

Hey guys. My rpm needle is always slightly above 1 when I drive and never comes down below 1. I worry that this isn’t good but some mechanics tell me the process to get it down is hard. Also, when idling, the rpm needle fires slightly on its own. What could be the cause? Car is a Hyundai Accent 2008 Manual Tranny |
