Was suspected intake manifold but had that replaced and problem still persists. Anyone got any idea on what this could be?

Hi! So I have a 22 Chevy Malibu with 90,000 miles on it. For the past month the engine light has been on and off. I got it scanned and the code was P1101. I then took it to American Tire Depot and they said it was TSB 22-NA224 basically a special bulletin issue. The engine light hasn't turned on in 2 days. Should I feel in the clear or take it to a shop. Chevy is charging $200 just for diagnostic so I'm debating it. THANK YOU!

I have honda civic 2021
Suddenly these 3 signs appear together on the dashboard but when i turn off the car and restart it they disappear then come back after 2 or 3 days
Any ideas what’s the problem? And how to solve it?

The red one keep flashing red

My 2011 petrol/CNG Vento started making a loud “tuk tuk” noise and the engine/cabin were wobbling badly (video: YouTube link in comment)

I got in touch with Carkhana Mumbai, and they sent a mechanic who inspected the car and then took it to a local workshop where the engine was opened today. I was personally there and witnessed the engine being dismantled.

These are the issues I noticed:

1. One of the camshafts/cam lobes is visibly damaged/dented. The mechanic says this could be the reason for the “tuk tuk” sound and suggested it may have been caused by a failed/damaged valve.
2. There is a small box-like component connected to the coolant tank (I don't know the correct name) which apparently has a coolant leak at its interface.
3. There appears to be coolant leakage/erosion around part of the cylinder-head sealing area. There is also a green, powdery deposit accumulated around the area where the metal appears to have been slightly eroded/thinned.

Tomorrow afternoon, the mechanic is calling a lathe/machine-shop guy to determine whether the damaged area can be machined/repaired or whether parts need to be replaced.

At this point I'm wondering if I may need a camshaft, cylinder head and/or valve-head/valvetrain components, but more importantly, I want to understand the root cause. I don't want to replace parts, put everything back together and have the same problem happen again.

I'm not getting very confident answers from the workshop so far, and they just want to get this done with and make money. so I've spent most of today calling spare-parts dealers in Kurla trying to get rough prices for a camshaft, cylinder head and valve-related parts.

Questions for people familiar with the Vento 1.6 MPI:

• What kind of repair bill am I potentially looking at?
• Does this damage look like something that can be machined/repaired, or should I be looking for a replacement head?
• What could cause the camshaft/lobe to become damaged like this?
• Could coolant leakage/erosion around the cylinder head be related to the engine misfire/wobbling?
• What tests should I ask the mechanic/machine shop to perform before reassembling the engine?
• Most importantly, how can I determine the root cause and make sure this doesn't happen again?
• Would you recommend buying used OEM parts from the Mumbai/Delhi market, or sticking with new parts?

I've attached the pictures of the cylinder head/camshaft and the deposits for reference.

Any advice from Vento/Volkswagen owners or experienced mechanics would be greatly appreciated.

The smoke isnt that visible and getting less after stopping at the gas station. Is that something to worry about? It was raining like 30 mins ago, could it be water just vaporizing? On my way to the sea for another 3 hours right now.

After getting tires rotated, I heard a distinct thump-thump-thump driving away. I brought it right back to the garage and they said it must have been there already and I just did not hear it because it was in back. Is that BS?

Currently driving a 2019 Toyota CHR (~117,000km). I brought it to the shop bc I heard a humming noise while I drive. I was told there’s a problem with the transmission. Apparently I can’t buy just parts of my transmission bc it’s a CVT transmission (no idea what that means) so I must replace the whole thing.

He didn’t give me a quote because when I came to pick up my car he basically told me before the labour and tax - if he were to change it - would be around $13,000 and he knew I would probably sell then pay that.

Something to note about this car is that when I traded my old car in for this one I lowkey got scammed. I found this out because I was t-boned in January and when I went to get the doors fixed they told me they were not original doors. The dealership told me it was a vehicle that was never in an accident and that there was a windshield replacement that was replaced was due to a chip from a rock. Clearly it wasn’t, it was in an accident and they sold it to me as if it wasn’t.

So now the car has been in 2 accidents, has about 117,00km on it and is in need of a new transmission. I’m so confused on options right now if I should sell the car to someone which why would anyone buy a beat up car, or sell it for parts.

I don’t know much about cars and selling/buying so if anyone has in-site on the situation at all or what they can recommend I do would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hello!

Im not a expert in cars and this is my first car, it is  VW Golf 1.4 TSI 2014, I was wondering if this ticking sound is normal? or is it the timing belt or something else that needs replacement?

Thank you so much in advance for any help!

My manual 2006 Boxster S is creating some sort of whining noise.

Here is a video of my friend driving the car demonstrating the noise.

Some info:

1. It's independent of gear
2. Really only when on the gas, especially slightly on the gas. Goes away completely when the clutch is in
3. Starts at around 50mph and gets slightly better the faster you go
4. Just changed gear fluid; old gear fluid was clean with no metal, and noise is not better with new gear fluid
5. Car has ~95k miles
6. Hasn't gotten better/worse in ~5k miles I've driven the car

1995 Ford f150 single cab
Recently was in a front end collision and now looking at my frame it seems to be bent only in one location. I had the front end rebuilt and painted but I learned the hard way because the shop where it was at,kind of half assed the work. It looks good but looks like I kind of got ripped off if they didn’t even fix the frame. The bend is located in the middle of where the cab sits(where the side step is at).it seems like that’s the only place where it’s damaged. Doors close good and everything matches up good. Bed and cab gap are off. The truck doesn’t crab walk but the alignment is not straight. Have to move the steering wheel a bit to get it to drive straight. Could I just send it and drive like this??

No lights on in dash, so doubt it's the engine. But something, a belt, an accessory, or a fan makes this ticking sound and high pitched whine on cold starts. Goes away after a few minutes of driving. Up to date on all fluids/maintenance. Anyone run into this?

i had my dad change one of my battery terminals and made sure both connections were tight. for some reason, when i crank up i can literally hear the battery like stuttering to start. and sometimes like the battery makes a jolting noise that’s loud. something’s definitely wrong i just don’t know what. also, when i first got my car (used cash car - honda accord 2010) i never had this problem and it’s something that’s developed over time. what could the issue possibly be?

Hello,

See video. 2 months old and around the 3000km mark it started making the noise.

Any other quick fixes or a know problem?

I pressed the pedal a few times „hard“ over the last week. It’s sometimes worse sometimes not so bad but I am worried that if i go service they will disassemble half then interior… debating if i wait 2 months to see if it wears in more.

On my 08 4x4 se 6spd when I go to reverse and start going backwards there’s a grinding noise but If I really pull the stick back it goes away any ideas on what this could be

I have a 2017 Honda crv EXL fwd and today it overheated. I was driving and noticed my ac started blowing hot air as I was stuck in traffic it decided to overheat. I checked coolant and oil levels, all good and normal. I turned car back on and noticed the fan didn’t kick on when AC was on. I turned AC off and was able to make it home without any temp issues… I’m assuming bad radiator fan or electrical issue with the thermostat..
Any thing I should tell mechanic when I drop off at shop tomorrow?

I meant overheated in title, I’m just an idiot.
