I would check the accessory belt pulleys; if one of them is starting to go out, then you might notice it first at higher RPMs.

If I were you, I'd still open up the cabin filter cavity. Mine was jammed full of wet leaves and dirt and other crap, causing funky smells. While you are in there you might as well get the replacement cabin filter cover and put filters in (if...

Are the old 1L bottles OK to use if they are checked first (strained)?

Do not use the plastic liter bottle. If you have some, filter (I would not use) the fluid before use or just toss in oil dump (best). Jelly like substance was found in them. Toyota took them off the shelve and brought back the 2.5L tins. This...

Aw man. Sorry, OP, it's a known problem with the liter bottles of AHC fluid.

I paid $1000 for a spot that was similar size along with a big powerwash of the undercarriage. I would expect around $600 maybe?? He will know the area you are talking about and can probably give you a good estimate over the phone.

This morning my wife crashed her 1999 LC into an Acura MDX. Somehow the cruiser came out WAY worse. And I have no idea why the airbags didn't go off. The truck is super clean with 200K miles on it. I've been working on cars my entire life but I...

Exactly right on all accounts. Hundys are stout but contemporary vehicles are markedly superior for occupant safety in a crash.

I would guess the rate of speed decrease was not enough to trigger the sensor. This looks very similar to an overlap test which older cars do not handle well. Sort of like a glancing blow where the sheet metal slowed most of the deceleration...

I’d probably go no on this one.

Awesome. $700 for (8) ignition coils 🥴

It's back

Buy it from a reputable auto focused store. Amazon sells knock-offs sometimes. You never now where it comes from. And for a critical component like this, you don't want to skimp. I would also change your Serpentine belt if not done already, it's...

The conundrum with replacing the water pump and fan bracket while doing the timing belt has to do with labor. Replacing them on their own is probably 80% of the labor to do a timing belt, but zero extra labor if done with the timing belt. In my...

there's always a risk buying parts from amazon that they won't be genuine.

Pretty straight forward job . 14mm deep socket to take pressure off and remove the belt . Plan on replacing the entire assembly and hardware .

I just replaced the original tensioner at 225K. The belt was starting to rub the side of the tensioner body. It wore a groove in it and squealed pretty bad at certain rpm’s. I tried changing the pulley but it didn’t make a difference. I guess...

There is no feeling like hitting the brake pedal and it goes to the floor, those who had it happen can relate I’m sure(happened in a work van, rusted line). No brakes can cause serious problems, I was lucky. To me… that’s worth $$$$. Mine gave...

Also I have 5x oil caps in stock. Orders placed after 12 (noon) EST tomorrow will be fulfilled on Monday April 15th (closed Friday for TrailFest 2024)

205k on my 2002. Started leaking a couple weeks ago, just found the source (radiator). Time to replace.

Couple of things that look different from my list, and looking back at the parts diagram I think I understand why. 1. 87245-6A060 and 87245-6A180 are both listed as HOSE, HEATER WATER, OUTLET A. The difference is the former is "UZJ100" and the...

That's accurate. Three of the "Big Hose Clamps" are the same size, and the fourth (clamps hose to bottom of radiator) is larger. Please replace those hoses as well, they've been cut by the worm gear -- and if they are the originals then...

BTW: I only use Toyota brake fluid and flush about 1.8 qts through. Best is 2 qts., when doing caliper work. To get 90% out of caliper, the typical flush & bleed does not. I flush. Then open bleeder and press piston, forcing fluid out one...

there are 2 "T"s at the rear of the engine near the firewall, my WAG is 1 of them broke. they are plastic, looking in from the front grill, the "T"s are about 1 oclock hopefully you didn't overheat the engine a good idea is to change the "T"s...
