Its evaporator replacement that requires dashboard removal. Have a diagnosis carried out to find out exactly what is wrong with your AC.

I love traveling by car and since I do not have my own sometimes rent. And recently I went on a trip to Ukraine in the wonderful city of Lviv and rented a car at first thought that the car would fall apart while on the move, but was surprised by the service, the car was just super , brand-new, clean, now when I go to Ukraine I will take them from the same https://ukr-prokat.com/en/rental-cars/rent-a-car-lviv.

Good evening house! My Toyota Corolla had a engine timing snap which I tried to fix and the vehicle started having the problem of jerking when braking or engaging the gear. And most at times going off when trying to engage gear.

I have bought new tok engine still the problem still persist. My plug and fuel nozzles are all in tack. Though I changed the engine cos of unusual noise. Please I need an auto expert to guide me on the trouble shooting options for my mechanic. Thanks

Don't do it, replace Ac with same model. All these dodgy mechanics trying to cut corners since 18BC

Your mechanic need to remove the two tire and do physical inspection on both side suspension.
Car slow up hill?
Run a scan on it and post the code.
Better still check the following
Weak fuel pump and bad fuel filter
Clogged catalyst
Clogged Air Filter
Low compression engine.

at this point stop buying used part. go and buy a new shaft, not belgum.There is a person who sels original OME parts on here now, xpenssive but rest of mind.as a rule of thumb, anything that goes faulty a a result of wear an tear,=never replace with used one.

Thank you for reaching out.

The individual is yet to make full refund despite issuing a cheque... I had advised him by sms that he has until the end of August to make full refund as I am more interested in sharing my experience so that others do not fall victim.

As a community of professionals, it is very disappointing that a vendor cannot keep to his word or render excellent service for which he is fully paid for.

I will update you all by September 1.

Hello house, please I need your help.

I just got a Nigerian used Toyota 2009 Corolla and my first day of driving it and I noticed the Oil light flickering (flashing) with noisy sound coming from the Engine. I checked oil gauge and it was at normal level, the light and noise comes up at low speed. When I restart the car, it goes away but comes on again when I brake or slow down.
The mechanic says its the oil pump that is bad and it needs replacement. I called the former owner and she said the oil pump was changed three months ago.

Please the experts in the house, what could be the cause and how can this be fixed. I will appreciate concrete solutions. Thanks
Experts based in Abuja should also indicate.
