Did you diagnose the exact source of the noise? try to get a second opinion on the exact problem before changing the engine. It could be simple as connecting rod bearings. However, if you need to do an engine change, the 1ZZ-FE works bolt for bolt, wire for wire. There is no need for transplant and ...

Common problem with Toyota. The IAC valve got stuck while spraying TB cleaner. You need a tamper proof tool to open it and free it up.

praise

If you service the IAC valve and it still malfunctions, then chances are your IAC valve is defective. So you will have to replace it with a new one or a foreign used one. Also check for vacuum leaks in the intake, and make sure you PCV valve is functioning.

I always respect the views and opinion of other and I never try to impose my way or the highway sort of attitude. Having said that, my view was not intended to offend Xplode or take away from his contribution. I believe in possitive arguments and possitive critism. I offerered my advice as a automoi...

If you want to invest in a good scantool as a sideline, you need a tool that can do basic ECU coding and programming, in addittion to reading and clearing codes. Unfortunatley, neither the Autel 519 or Launch CPR 123 can perform this these functions as they are basic code readers. I have had severel...

There was a problem for parts at one time. However, parts are not so difficult again with so many on the road. Car parts dealers are bringing in them so you have the option of new parts original, new parts generic as well as foreign used parts. In any case most parts are the same as the NZE model co...

It actually say, No need to change under normal driving conditions. Normal drivng conditions applies to vehicles driven under 100km/h, does no towing and climbs excessive hills.

These transmission holds 7.2 qts of oil. They are non-cvt transmissions. The recommended oil is Toyota T-IV oil. There are other oils that are compatable like Amsoil Universal ATF which I highly recommend, Amalie Synthetic ATF, Royal Purple Synthetic ATF and Castrol Multi Import. Under normal drivin...

Although it has the OBD11 16 pin DLC it is not OBD2. Hence a OBD2 scanner will not work. You need a scantool with Mitsubishi software.

The only issue I came across with the cube is with the transmission fluid. This oil life is registered in the ECU and must be changed accordingly. When changed it has to be reset. ONLY NS2 CVT OIL should be used. Any other fluids causes it to malfunction.

Injector cleaners may help keep your injectors clean but thats no guarantee that they will clean them. Get your vehicle properly tuned, meaning clean injectors, trottle body, change spark plugs, air filter, oil and filter (10W30) and do an idle air relearn with a diagnostic scan tool. Make sure timi...

In tank fuel filter should be replace every 100,000 km. On line fuel filter every 12000km -15000 km or I year, whichever comes first.

Firstly, you need the engine to be at room temperature. Disconnect your negetive battery terminal and start scrapping and removing everything that can obstruct the head from coming off, eg. hoses, electrical connection, exhaust,engine mounts etc. Turn engine over to TDC and start slackning cylinder ...

Unless you drive another one, or someone with a similar model drive yours, we cannot say if this is normal or not. Usually, if you floor the accelerator and it hesitate in responding, it need servicing. It may be dirty injectors and trottle body, clog air filter, worn spark plugs, engine oil too thi...

E -Trottle are very expensive and I would not recommend that is something you experiment with. Pay $150 and get it done right everytime, which is a whole lot cheaper, than complete replacement. Remember, that there is always a disclaimer, for such info ( DO AT YOUR OWN RISK).

What type of vehicle are you interested in scanning? Most OBD1 systems do not require a scan tool and can be done manually. Google it for you car and you would be surprise how easy it is. However if you are having an intermittant problem, only then you would need a scantool to get live data on the p...

I think you are on the right track. Electric fans are the way to go, and especially if they are not functioning, you will know right away unlike clutch fans. Go brave.

Where is armia? For what type of car and what work you want to get done? If you answer these simple questions, someone will be able to help.

Body parts are hard to get and real expensive. Some insurance companies do not insure them because of this. Some parts are different from the NZE, like rear wheel bearings and engine mounts. Good vehicle otherwise.

Honda's engine and transmission, once properly maintained and correct fluids used, will last quite a long time. There may be slight difference between the local and foreign engines, but the can be interchanged if the need arises. Body and suspension are identical, so no problems in this regard.

Local used is the better buy. You are sure to get parts and service. Also you can test drive, inspect properly and negotiate price before purchasing. The vehicle condition and mileage would also be genuine unlike the foreign, with roll back mileage. The advantage with a foreign used is a new number ...

If water is leaking from the pump it needs replacing. It is a good idea to replace timing belt as well. Examine your hoses and water jackets and replace as necessary.
