Was told to replace O2 sensors, before I did that I called my mechanic (Not a service centre rip off) he told me even if replacing the sensors the powertrain check warning might not even stop after they are replaced. I've been trying to find a reset trick for it, but found nothing as of yet.

I fill the coolent resevore up and radiator go for a bit of a drive and the coolent isnt comeing out of the resevore into the raidiator wat could it be

why do you keep filling it up? If you overfill either the radiator or the reservoir it is as bad as not filling up...
Is there a temperature issue?
If the reservoir is NOT using, or appearing to 'use' any coolant.. then that is a good thing.. it IS a reserve tank, a reservoir.. tank for overspill and should never be more than 1/3 full..

Car starts then dies got check engine light have checked it and comes up iacv i have changed it 3 times and still does same thing i need to hold the my foot on pedel to keep it going and rev the guts

Hello


The Engine and Automatic Transmission (not applicable to manual transmissions) in this vehicles drive train are fully electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM and TCM (Power Train Control Module, Transmission Control Module). When a problem like this or other drive-ability related problems occurs the computer stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions to this, like the fuel pump, engine coolant temperature sensor and MAF sensor for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL A TRAINED TECHNICAIN HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO AVOID SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON PARTS THAT MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. Also always check fuel pressure for correct spec for your make and engine type.

2006 Toyota Sequoia, just purchased, however, when I come to a complete stop the vehicle jerks as if someone is pulling me backwards, enough to cause whiplash. More noticeable after driving it awhile,...

1 problem at a time

1st-- squeaks-- when the breaks where replaced where the anti-radile clips put back in, if so dose squeak rear or front

if rear check spring kits

2nd-- jerks-- this could be drive train question dose ur engine seem to rev at all wen this is happening


try this

goto an area where this is safe

driving at normal speeds put the shifter in neutral (this will NOT hurt it if you follow wat i say)
now apply the brakes dose it **** if so problem is in breaks is not get ur trans looked at
''''''''''DO NOT PUT BACK IN GGEAR UNTILL U HAVE CAME TO A COMPLEAT STOP'''''''
good luck

I have a nissan maxima 04 and when I switch the gears from park to drive before I can even push on the gas some times the whole car jerks then rides smooth till the next time I switch back into drive it...

ill assume only occurrs when drive train is warmed up...cold ok?shift valves sticking in valve body and a very common problem with these vehicles equipped with 5 speed auto trans.check fluid color.brown is normal on these units....black is bad.if its still brown and not black replace the valve body to eliminate this concern.its alittle pricey but about a third of the cost of transaxle replacement.

MY CAR CRANKS BUT WHILE ITS RUNNING IT MAKES A KNOCKING SOUND.THE CAR IS A 1995 BUICK LESABRE.WHAT COULD THIS NOISE BE?

If you can tell where the knock is coming from, it helps a great deal. I know it can be hard for a person not really trained, so I will try to keep it simple. If it sounds like it's coming from the bottom of the enginem then it's most likely a bad bearing. If it sounds like it's coming from the middle or top, then it might be a bad valve lifter or other vbalve train component failure.

I wouldn't drive it if possible and have it towed to a repair shop that you trust for diagnosis. If it is a bad bearing and you continue to drive it, it can cause total failure of the engine and extensive damage.

Wat makes the 4wd not come out

Usually caused by preload of the relationship between the front and rear drive train units...Engauge and disengauge require circle driving, thinking in terms of having 1/2 move in relation to the other 1/2. Nothing would change while driving straight....
