      Hi Scotty! What do you think is the problem of my Toyota Corolla Altis 1.6 V (2011, Philippines), that the AC suddenly stops cooling? Sometimes I have to stop my AC and run my car, or sometimes I have to stop the engine and start all over again? Would it be expensive to resolve this issue? Thank you so much!

    I have two Corollas (2006, 2008) and I've replaced that intake gasket on both of those cars. Here is a tip to remember: on the backside of the intake runners is a port that connects to the tube that goes to the brake booster; it is hard to see and most DIY guys forget to connect that and then they don't have any brakes, so be careful to reconnect all of the vacuum lines.

    I saw the gasket in the thumbnail, and already knew what the video would be about. Error code P0171 (to lean bank 1).
    This cost a friend of mine hundreds at the Toyota dealer, only to have the code reappear within days. They sold her a new MAF sensor even, amongst other things. Then I checked the intake with brake cleaner, changed the 15$ inlet manifold gasket, and problem solved.

    • @MrRusell86
      @MrRusell86 11 месяцев назад

      I have a chronic issue with P0171 coming on myself in my 2000 Corolla. It is triggered by the LTFT reaching 38.3%. Did your friend's car have a similar issue with the LTFT being way too high? How did the car run before the gasket was changed?

      Do the spray test on yours.
      Remember the manifold is plastic and has a different rate of expansion to the alloy head...
      So temperature can make the difference and maybe that temp diff is twisting the manifold..
      and the old worn gasket can't seal that up any more?

    One of the vehicles in my driveway is an 04 Corolla. The knock sensor threw a code because a mouse ate the harness. I chose to remove the intake as you just did. Took about 45 minutes to splice a new harness and change the intake gasket. Simple job! You are correct regarding that gasket because mine was very hard and probably had a small leak somewhere. Total cost was about $25 including the gasket, harness and carb cleaner for intake. One thing I can recommend is disconnect the negative to battery because the MAF sensor is sensitive. Scotty you rock!

    Should have changed the pcv valve. I did this job three days ago. The pcv was bad and replaced it myself after mechanic thought it was too much work to remove the intake to get at it. The car was burning oil and you could see it leaking down the bottom of the intake. The girl had almost 300,000 miles on the car. Amazing that the car was still running. With all that oil coming in the intake. She never done anything but brakes and tires and oil changes. She showed no appreciation just was mad there was still an exhaust leak.

I saw some passats with 1 000 000 km and they are still going with original engines hahah. I also love my 2.5l CRD made by VM Motori. I think it's an italian engine which was used in some Jeeps Cherokee, Chrysler Grand Voyager (EU version) and also in London's cabs. I have 2001 Grand Voyager with this 2.5l CRD engine and after 21 years and 210k miles it is still going without any problems. Both engine and even turbo is still original and it is truly amazing! We bought this car in Daimler-Chrysler in Prague and I have some friends who covered 850 000 km with this car. If you change oil every 7k miles and change filters and you don't floor it when it's cold, it will last for long time I guess :) And A/C is still blowing ice cold!

    Glad to know about the carb spray trick! I've been getting o2 sensor codes on my 2004 Corolla and haven't thought much of it, but now the idle is getting so bad that it occasionally dies at stops. Usually starts right back up. Took it to a shop here in Houston and they wanted to charge me 1100 for a new intake manifold because they did a smoke test and found a leak. I can't imagine that replacing the manifold is that hard and I know that the gasket has been changed, or at least I know I paid a mechanic to change it and they said they did. I'm tempted to take a look at the gasket, and just replace it myself and see if that helps, but I'll try the carb spray to see where the leak is.
