Honda - Cr-v :: 2000 - Smoke Is Coming Out From Front Fender Side Of Engine At The Center

Ten days ago I had the "Camshaft Plug" and the "Oil Pressure Light Switch" replaced on my 2000 Honda CR-V 2.0L 1972CC L4 with 206,000 miles on it. Today the car (engine) is bucking and a very small amount of smoke is coming out from the front fender side of the engine at the center (as you look from left to right) from what appears to be near the cover gasket.When it started to buck only about a mile from my house I return immediately and shut it off. The temperature gauge never moved from the normal position and the car seem to buck more when it was going slower. What might be wrong? Also could the replacement of the two engine parts I mentioned have anything to do with the current problem?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2010 - Odd Noise Coming From Fender Area While Driving Over Bumps Especially

I own 2001 2.0 Golf (first car) and lately as I drive I constantly hear this noise, it's very obnoxious, sounds like a washing machine going with a hard object in it. It's not continuous, but it doesn't happen rarely. Whenever I go over any bump, the slightest crack etc. I'm guessing it has something to do with the suspension? I'm not really sure since I'm still learning about cars...

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Smoke Coming Out Near The Airbox

I bought this 2003 gti in July, noticed a little smoke coming out near the airbox but the motor had been cleaned recently so I assumed it was whatever they used cleaning it just burning off.

Today, installing an air filter, I see that there is a rubber hose dry rotted with smoke coming from it. I don't know what it goes to or how to replace it. The car drives fine. I do have CEL on for a coolant system fault, but all fluids are level it's not overheating and it doesn't seem to be losing any power.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Temp Going Up / Smoke Coming Out From Rear Of Car

I own a 03 mk4 jetta 2.0 I revved her up to 5000 rpm coming onto traffic. Drove about a mile or so when I noticed the temp going up. Pulled over and checked all my fluid levels and looked under for any leaks. Got back in the car turned it on and saw temp was normal again. I drove not even a quarter of a mile when I saw smoke coming out the rear of the car. Let the gas pedal go and when I did that the car started downshifting. Its an automatic. When it got down to the last gear the battery, check engine light, and epc light came on and car cut off. Cruised until I could stop somewhere safe on neutral. When I completely stopped I tried cranking but no crank. When I turn the key, lights and everything is good. Just no crank.

Golf V R32 :: Burning Smell And Smoke Coming From The Engine

Took about a 200 mile trip this weekend, stopped at a rest area about halfway through and smelled burnt carbon, smelled like a burnt clutch almost. It was very strong and there was smoke coming from the engine. It wasn't a lot but it was cause for concern. I checked the oil, last oil change about 1500 miles ago but no problems there, temp gauge was in the middle. Let the car sit for a 10 mins or so and then headed of again. When I got home that night, couldn't smell it and there was no smoke. Car has 42K ... Also, I got an airbag fault light about 30 mins from my house.

So while inspecting my CV grease explosion everywhere (pretty sure I tanked an axle), I noticed my crankcase breather tube was smoking, which I found to be odd. Is that normal? It looked kind of like exhaust...

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Smoke Coming Out Of Vents When Accelerated To Go Up A Hill

I was driving home today when I accelerated to go up a hill and started smelling something burning, pulled over and noticed my flex pipe was completely blown apart and the heat shield behind it smoking. I pulled over and got some water on it and it stopped but after I started driving again the smoke got even worse. This time it was something different than the first time. Could it be the heater core going or the foam inside the hvac system burning?

Golf IV R32 :: Smell Of Burnt Toast - White Smoke Coming From Engine?

Okay so basically I was driving today when I noticed the smell of burnt toast. Didn't think anything of it so when I turned off my R I noticed some faint white smoke coming from my engine bay. It appears that the smoke is coming from the left side of the engine, when I pop off my engine covers, there are two hoses (one going to air intake/one going into intake manifold). It looks like its coming from either one of those hoses or somewhere below. I don't see any leaking fluids or anything.

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Under Acceleration And Sudden Braking Pop Is Coming From Passenger Fender Area

I just recently bought 2012 CorollaS. Great car inside and out with about 20k miles. I've noticed under acceleration and sudden braking a pop is coming from the passenger fender area. I've replaced the motor mount on that side thinking that might have been the issue, but it's still there. What are the torque specs for the motor mount. Maybe it's simply not torqued correctly.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2001 - Rough Idle And Black Smoke Coming Out Of Tailpipe?

I got my 2.0 turbo project up and running. no CEL but i did have a bad o2 code but it was erased and didn't come back.

Not only is it rough idle and smoking out the exhaust but i am also getting smoke out of my catch can vent.

The smoke looks black coming out of the tailpipe but little blue after it gets out a ways from the car. Where to look??

I did just replace a piston and install a head gasket spacer. I don't know if that could be causing it some and it will go away with some driving or what?

I have not taken it out on the road as I have some brake work to finish. so mostly it idled.

Here is a link to a video on what the car is doing : [URL] .....

Its a 01 engine code....

4Runner/GX470 :: 1989 V6 - Click Coming From Passenger Side Fender Area When Turn Key Forward

89 v6 4Runner. When I turn the key forward you hear a "click" coming from the passenger side fender area. After a few turns the engine will turn over and away you go. Yesterday for the first time after a few clicks I lost all power to my instrument panel, no dash lights no gauges working and no click, nothing. Stereo, cigarette lighter still had power, even reset my dash clock so it lost all connections as well. Every few turns I would get lights back and turn the key to start and click and dead again. Eventually I bump started the engine, drove home and here I sit.

Relay box by the front fender... this is where the click is coming from, looked at a few posts from yoda tech and one person suggested cutting the no 4 line for the ignition system off the relay box and have it go directly to the pos post for the battery. This will be a closed circuit from the battery post direct to the starter relay yes?

Relay box is probably just getting old and wires are beat up. My electrical is not the best for sure. Can I just clean up the wires going to the relay box(es)?

Golf V R32 :: Rusty Hatch And Front Fender?

Having rust issues? I just bought the car and noticed some was touched up with the rear hatch - under the window, right by the seal. Also, right by where the bottom of the door and front fender meet. Looks like it's inside, on the body/frame, not the fender.

I'll probably take it to dealer and hope to have it taken care of. Carfax came back clear so I'm pretty sure no work has been done on it before that would cause this.

Golf/GTI VI :: Quarter Inch Gap Between Bumper And Fender?

I just got my car back from the body shop after a front end accident and they replaced the bumper, hood, and headlights. However they said the fenders were fine. Now i'm noticing about a quarter inch difference (on both sides) where the bumper meets the fender. Could this be because the fenders bent slightly too or because it's a brand new bumper?

Golf/GTI VI :: Driver Side Front Fender Liner Missing Access Panel

If the driver's side fender liner is supposed to have an access panel cover? I was swapping out my side markers today and noticed that my passenger's side has one but not the driver's side. Didn't think to check for something like that during delivery although from looking at the one from the passenger's side, it doesn't seem hard to believe that it could have fallen out due to spirited driving.
