#150 of 155 Hesitation by xbbuster Jul 23, 2009 (3:59 am)
Same problem.......... rapid hesitation, bucking. seems like the engine is just cutting out like it had bad plugs. Only after driving a 100 miles or so and only when decelerating from highway speeds or going down the slightest hill. No check engine light so the dealer says they can't do anything unless they drive it with a scanner. It has real good power and gets 30 mpg highway. I'm lost. Local dealer suggested next time we take a trip schedule an appointment with a dealer on the way so they could test it.

I have a 2005 Camry LE 4 cyl with 41000 miles and is still under PowerTrain Warranty. I am getting a gurgling noise like metal flowing thru liquid during low speed acceleration 2 to 10 MPH. It does not occur everytime. My engine oil level is reading high 1/2 inch above full mark. I am concerned about a transmission problem. Any comments.

Replying to: prob1 (Aug 18, 2009 10:50 am) Get that engine oil down to the correct maximum level.......... if there is too much oil the crankshaft can end up slapping it and foaming the oil up, and splashing it on the cylinder walls. Pull the drain plug and drain about a quart+ out. Drain more or refill as needed. This is assuming that someone overfilled the oil.   If the oil level was correct, and now it is high....I would suspect a blown head gasket, allowing radiator fluid to contaminate the oil. Get this looked at pronto.   Replies to this message: prob1 (Aug 20, 2009 10:43 am) kiawah (Aug 20, 2009 11:10 am) prob1 (Aug 20, 2009 5:25 pm)

Replying to: kiawah (Aug 18, 2009 4:36 pm) Thanks for your comments. I removed 1 1/2 pints of oil from the engine. The oil level is now at the full mark; not over. The noise is still there. The noise lasts for only a few seconds. It seems to occur when we need to accelerate; in the 0 to 10mph range. However, it is not consistent. Hard to take to a mechanic to solve the mystery if I can't duplicate it. Racking my brain trying to find a word that describes this noise accurately. Do you know of anything else that may cause a noise that sounds like metal traveling through liquid? Coincidentally, the noise started after my last oil change and I have 4200 miles on the oil.   Please advise.  . Replies to this message: kiawah (Aug 20, 2009 11:10 am) prob1 (Aug 20, 2009 5:25 pm)

Replying to: prob1 (Aug 20, 2009 10:43 am) Do you know what the sound of an engine knock is (cylinder detonation knock).....usually first noticed with a bad load of gas or low octane fuel? If so, does it sound like that? Replies to this message: prob1 (Aug 20, 2009 5:25 pm)

Replying to: kiawah (Aug 20, 2009 11:10 am) No,It does not sound like a engine knock. I know what a knock sounds like due to low octane gas. I am due for a oil change. I am going to report this problem to the Toyota Service Manager to get it on record. Thanks for your help.
