I have a corolla fielder with a rumbling transmission or something. When i rev the engine alone it sounds okay, but when on the highway the thing rumbles like it has continuous freno. even when I let off the gas and put it neutral with foot off the gas it still rumbles as long as it has in relative high speed. Doesnt pull too well. doesnt rumble when moving slowly. engine is 1NZ-FE and trans is cvt. cvt oil is clean and up to correct level. I was told to get a new gearbox but a good one goes for 90k and i dont want to make that kind of a mistake. some other guy insists its an exhaust problem even though it doesnt go with engine revs. advice bana. najua nyinyi ni watu wa hizi gari.
check the engine and gearbox mountings
hii or something funga kwa gazeti upeleke laboratory ya garage…
Try washing the engine compartment thoroughly and check for any problems in exhaust and mountings
Mountings hizo. Badilisha
Cvt Transmission belt has become lose ,Cvt fluid yako hukubadilisha on time ,thus it affected the moving parts za transmission and made the belt lose its factory calibration ,just buy a new transmission,100k will suffice for toyota
before you change that transmission… get a good mechanic pay him well take him for a ride on the highway… it could be a suspension problem or many other things
na kama hio fielder ni auto na unaweka neutral, hio ni gearbox unaua
nyangau kapsaa mwalimu…
hahaha. it turned out to be worn wheel bearings transmitting vibration to the transmission making it sound like freno. changed them and the car went quiet. surprisingly pulling power returned to normal and consumption went down. almost burnt my fingers with trigger happy know it all “mechanics”.
