Hi all my first post, I have just bought a Carolla ascent sport 2014. 115000km , 6 speed manual. I have a driving school and have noticed that at take off the revs drop off almost stalling. I am no stranger to manual as I teach manual in my driving school. even on level road if i let clutch out slowly car shudders and i have to really keep revs up over 1.5, idle is just on 1. Once i get going its great after second there is instant power and drives exceptionally well. checked one spark plug ngk platinum ? seems Ok? any ideas how i can improve take off. Thanks Ken -
Hi all, This will be my first post on the forum, so bare with me. I have searched more threads than I can count related to this, on here and other forums. If the questions I am about to ask are already posted and answered here, I do apologize, I could not find them. OK! Lets begin! I have a 1994 MK4 Supra NA-T. so consider it an NA for the purposes of this. I had a rear ender the other month, purely cosmetic damage, and this was all repaired and I picked up the car and drove it for a full 3 days without any issues. Then the other day I was driving and as I stopped at the lights

Hi I have a 2000 AE112 Corolla that's having problems with acceleration. On cold start up it sits below 500rpm for few seconds and almost stalls. Then it goes to normal idle rpm. When I drive the car, it has hardly any power until it hits 2000rpm. I flat foot it and hardly moves and jumps like it wants to go more but can't. After 2000rpm everything works fine. I cleaned carbon buildup from inside the throttle body and it didn't change anything. Does anyone else have any ideas what I should be fixing?

Hi Gurus, I’ve noticed a small rattle with my 2014 RAV4 Diesel manual with 21k kms on the clock. I first heard the ‘rattle’ when in neutral whent the clutch is engaged.

Having noticed it, I hear the rattle throughout the gears although its hard to hear clearly due to the diesel motor sound and road noise. I did stall the car last week at low speed and I think I’m just being paranoid but I can’t remember the

Quick question: how much does your AC idle-up increase your idle speed? As in, what RPM does your engine jump up to when you switch on the AC at idle? Asking because mine ups it by around 200 RPM, which seems a little low.

Hi, My partner has a 1996 2.8L Diesel Hilux the 4door steel tray back ute, and on idle it shakes the entire car, yet when in gear or throttle it will smoothen out. It didn't always do this. It started happening after the gearbox and clutch were replaced, and she thought it may have been the engine mounts so she got someone to replace them. What could be the cause of this? I feel it may be a timing issue, or that the gearbox wasn't fitted properly. When the car is in idle and I stand next to the engine it shakes and when I play with the throttle cable it smooths out. Any and all advice is we
