Hi,
I am having a problem which I tried to search for but no related topic
found.
My car has 162k miles, we've had it since 86k miles, most of these
miles have been highway miles (from 86k to today)
Whenever I out the car in reverse the RPM drops and sometimes the
engine stalls. Sometimes even when stopped, idleing, the engine
stalls. Showed to to a few mechanics, everyone say something new, this
stupid mechanic just raised the idle causing higher RPM and high fuel
consumption, even harder to brake!! despite him raising the RPM, its
still stalling sometimes in reverse and at traffic lights, I have to
shift it into neutral.
I have noticed that as soon as I start the car for the 1st time in the
day, I dont have this problem for some time, as soon as I have driven
it for a while, it starts stalling!!! so basically in the first 10-15
mins in the morning or initial driving, it usually does not cause
trouble! later in the day or driving after the intial 10-15 mins it
causes this problem!
I hope I have elaborated enough and I hope somone can give me some
advice.
Thanks

Why not take, you car to your Toyota dealer? They have factory trained
techs that can diagnose and repair it properly and will guarantee their
work. Why waste money as a parts changer on behalf of the guys that hang in
the NGs? ;)
