    I called 2 people when I thought my car was gonna tirik. Si Ahya (car guy ko since teens) and ULS. Ahya said could be CVT problem. Natakot ako! Uls said ignition coil agad

    Those who said ignition coil, congrats hahaha! Thank you also to the rest that gave their insights. Kailangan na rin ng cleaning

    Can you guys check ano pwede tanggalin sa 40k or okay na lahat?

    Btw, I'd replace the 4 coils na as jick suggested.

    Ignition coil 2 din ang sira ng sakin. What is with the 2nd?!?!

    check the owner's manual for scheduled maintenance for the age, your mileage is low, so base all maintenance on the age of the car. you've come this far have all fluids replaced specially brake fluid. DOT 3 brake fluid is supposed to be replaced every two years

    Universal ata talaga ang every 2 yrs replacement for brake fluid for any car. Almost all manuals I see ganun eh.
    I came across a manual for a 70's era Volkswagen, and even with old school mechanical (non boosted brakes aka. "hydrovac" etc.), the maintenance interval for b. fluid replacement is 2 yrs din. (Interestingly, recommended oil API standard was "SE" pa- ancient)


    Though scrupulous ako with oil changes and other fluids, my daily driver Vios (with less than 18,000 kms on the odometer) got its first ever brake fluid flush on its 5th yr.

    Naman kasi, halos minimal brake wear, and only about 4-5mm from the full line binaba ng fluid (no top ups, ever) but when I checked the fluid for moisture content, nasa danger level na I must have been lucky...

    If CVT has never been replaced, have it done ... it's very important ...

    I asked my SA my car is only 41k and alaga, I feel like it's premature sira and she said probably because it's not used often nga 😳

    Nakakatakot talaga tunog ng car, it sounded like a really old jeep.

    X1R oil treatment?!?!?!

    I see the Toyota casa is still up to their old tricks...


    Engine flush (?), engine room cleaner (?) (prob. just some degreaser), engine room coat (?), Bactaklenz, decarbonizing??? Andami padding na cr*p stuff you don't really need.

    Also, brake fluid for P240.85 each bottle? You can get almost 1 LITER of Prestone brake fluid na for that price...

    7 hours to replace the ignition coils/
    4 hours to replace the vlave cover gasket?
    they've got to be the slowest moving employees

    when you replace the vlve cover gasket, you need to remove/reinststall the ignition coils anyway.
    the total time should not exceed two hours for a skill lever c


    don't buy all the unnecessary items/services they offer. stick to the recommended service items in the owner's manual

    there are nine typical fluids in a regular car. some of them are not applicable to all cars.

    1.motor oil/engine oil
    2. automatic transmission oil
    3.manual transmission oil/differential oil/manual steering gear(parallelogram, haltenberger linkage, cross steer systems)
    4. brake fluid-DOT3,4,5,5.1
    5. windshield washer fluid
    6.antifreeze/coolant
    7.battery electrolyte
    8. fuel
    9.refrigerant

    any applicable fluid in your car has a projected service life.

    stick with the car's owner's manual for fluid maintenance

    Decarbonizing IMO is useful sa GDI engines and diesels with dirty EGR. For old-school port-injected gasoline there's no need really.

    Early coil packs were a common point of failure talaga. I remember my friend would carry a full set of coils with him because his car (an Evo VII) would have one go bad every so often. Nakakatawa din we had a funrun to Antonio's in Tagaytay, and when we got there the first thing we see him do is pop the hood and start checking the coilpacks

    Cathy ... have a flatbed tow truck (why are they still called TOW trucks?) bring your car to ULS or whoever is willing to help you ... it's going to cost much, much cheaper and the work done will be much, much better ... that 7 hour labor charge alone is worth more than the towing service ...

    PULL THE COROLLA out of casa ...

    Cath, mas konti pa mileage ng 2015 explorer ko sayo, low 30k+ pa lang. But I'm using it more often now dahil ganun pa rin maintenance cost whether gamitin or hinde. Pinagawa ko na 100th kms PMS na. Replace all fluids pati drive belt.

    I am praying na ignition coil lang as most people say here. Kasi that's a simple and non expensive fix ata

    "dead cylinder" simply means,
    that cylinder is not contributing to the power generation of the engine.
    a common fault is, the fuel mixture isn't igniting, i.e., something wrong with the hi tension, or there's not enough fuel...
    it does not translate to major engine fix.

    in my last casa pms,
    the SA was perusing his monitor screen for my data...
    "basic lang sir, tama?"
    it appears, my "kuripot ang costumer na 'to. oil and filter only, nothing more" has been input-ed in their database.
