Hello Mr Gazzuz, thanks for the great work you are doing here and God bless you. I recently bought a Honda accord 1998 model{ babyboy} from a friend months ago bur I didn't realize some few faults, the engine is in good condition but I obeserve that whenever I put on the AC, it reduces the engine work thereby reducing the slow as if the car is about going off, went to a rewire known to me and he said I need. To change the vacuum, of which I know for a V4 babyboy engine, may have more than 10 vacuums, Anoda rewire said it may be the Kompressor of the AC, which I recently change and still gives me same issue most expecially when d engine is very warm. Also I have the check engine light on, SRS light on and also the ABS light on. Plz advice what can I do |

Hello Mr gazzuz, thanks for the good work you are doing, plz can I come for a free scan becox my 1998 accord babyboy has so much problem that I can't explain it all... |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 12:50am On Aug 31, 2015 |
Lagsfinest: Idle speedvalve is the most likely culprit, have it serviced or replaced, also have the vehicle scanned. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 12:52am On Aug 31, 2015 |
Lagsfinest: Free scan is currently not running. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Lagsfinest: 12:53pm On Sep 01, 2015 |
Thanks for the info, please how much does a scan cost and how do I tell my mechanic to check for the idle speed valve.. can I also get your number to call you |

@Oga GAZZUZZ. My dashboard has some issues. The speedometer failed, the tachometer is epileptic, works at times, my fuel gauge can be deceptive. Some times when I enter or go through a bump, some of them come back and fails after some time. What could be the cause of this, will I need a new one entirely? Or have them work on it? I really hardly believ these mechanics.... |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by kingreign(m): 8:40am On Sep 03, 2015 |
megamindmaster:name and model of car? you have to provide enough info for Chief Gazzuzz to work on na. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by megamindmaster(m): 2:27pm On Sep 03, 2015 |
kingreign:Sorry, its a Peugeot 406 phase 1... Where Chief Gazzuzz dey? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 2:57pm On Sep 03, 2015 |
megamindmaster: You might have a grounding problem, since it's a phase1 the vehicle is not equipped with a BSI check ground connections under the dash and harness connecting the instrument cluster. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by megamindmaster(m): 3:17pm On Sep 03, 2015 |
GAZZUZZ:OK. That's a good lead. I will have someone check it here... Thanks |

@Gazzuzz. Pls someone drove my 2007 Toyota Camry and ran over a speed bump while standing hard on the brakes. I took over the wheels and there's suddenly an obvious knocking sound in the steering wheel when I turn left and right + the Maintainance required indicator on the dash is now on and the airbag light. Will be paying you a visit soon. |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by kingreign(m): 9:27pm On Sep 08, 2015 |
Demrich:CEL been on for a while and you didn't bother to scan, hope you know if you lose the engine or gear box of that car, its your fault? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 10:16pm On Sep 08, 2015 |
Ishilove: So you don de come here?? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 10:19pm On Sep 08, 2015 |
Demrich: Possible fuel pressure problem, or clogged injectors. But that's blind diagnosis, please try and have the vehicle scaned, I could be wrong |
