Mr. Gazzuzz During acceleration there's always a boooooooom kind of sound from the engine, it happens to my accord and i hear it from other cars as well wen they accelerate past me. It sounds like a hollow in the engine. Its definitely not exhaust leak sound and i don't think its an intake sound (sucking sound). I know its not normal, people tend to neglect it. What likely can be the cause of this? |

Hello Gazzuzz I am having a few issues with my car. Honda CRV 2002. I hear this growling noise when i accelerate either in reverse or drive. It comes from the power steering, compressor, tensioner area. I can't pin point the exact cause. Beside my serpentine belt is off by one thread but i doubt if that is the cause. Also there is loss of power and i have a "Pending Code" - P0172 - System too rich. My A/F sensor reads about 0.6V. Short term and long term trims are in the negatives. i need epp oooo |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 6:59am On Dec 07, 2016 |
xreakz: Did you replace engine recently? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by sekeyso(m): 9:23am On Dec 07, 2016 |
Pls Sir, corolla 2005 is throwing up these codes p0171 p 0420 p043e p043f p2401 p2402 p2419 and its consuming fuel like an SUV. Pls help me on what to do about it. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by xreakz(m): 9:09pm On Dec 07, 2016 |
GAZZUZZ: A year ago the engine was replaced. K24A for K20A |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 9:12pm On Dec 07, 2016 |
xreakz: that's it! It will never turn out well. Switch back. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by xreakz(m): 8:31am On Dec 08, 2016 |
GAZZUZZ: Ha. switch back just like that...in this Buhari regime. I didnt have this noise until i changed belt tensioner. What can we do to savage this? i can't afford a new engine now. I know some CRV come with K20A engine |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 8:49am On Dec 08, 2016 |
xreakz: Also there is loss of power and i have a "Pending Code" - P0172 - System too rich. My A/F sensor reads about 0.6V. Short term and long term trims are in the negatives.the issues above can only be fixed by returning the engine to the original specs. The K20 and K24 are not same engine. The noise on the other hand is an easy fix, all you need to do is remove the belt and check all rolling components for wear. When you find the culprit have it replaced. It could also be a defective belt tensioner. |

GAZZUZZ and house Just got a Nigerian used Acura TL 2005/06 V6. I need tips. I also need reference to a good Auto shop. A few issues i suspect. Fuel Consumption. Burnt 65 litres for about 133 Miles (Assuming the Odometer reads in miles). Although i noticed low tyre pressure today and pumped all 4. Gonna fill the tank once more and note the milage. was told yesterday that the catalytic converter is missing. What are the implications? any on fuel consumption? Any good mechanic or auto shop that is affordable that can help with servicing and maintenance? Are there things in the car i need to pay particular attention to? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by honmusa(m): 6:14am On Dec 09, 2016 |
tidymaster:If your fuel mileage is poor ,look elsewhere it is not about catalyst not available ,lot of cars driven in Nigeria that is without catalyst and the fuel consumption is still OK . Take your car to a reputable autocare to perform diagnostics for your car ,they will be able to tell you in a professional way what is missing . call autologic @08061166316 if you are in Lagos. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by samilo88(m): 4:04pm On Dec 10, 2016 |
Please gurus in the house I need ur advise before I go on a wild goose chase. My Honda accord 03 has issues sometimes going uphill. Although it doesn't occur frequently but sometimes it can be embarrassing trying to climb a hill and ur car suddenly starts dragging. Car drives smoothly and gear changes easily when in motion. A mechanic friend said it might be the gear sensor since the car drives smoothly. I believe nairaland gurus than most mechanics. Abeg oga Gazuz and Co pls help a bro here. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 6:21pm On Dec 10, 2016 |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by sheffyUTD(m): 8:14am On Dec 13, 2016 |
@Gazzuzz I gave this mobile number (08023251039) to a client. I just compared it with the one on your signature, and it is different, I hope I am safe. His name is Ochuko, for a particular Lexus. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 8:21am On Dec 13, 2016 |
sheffyUTD: safe. Battery low. Use 08033910382 |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by sheffyUTD(m): 9:10am On Dec 13, 2016 |
GAZZUZZ:Okay, noted. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by honmusa(m): 7:43pm On Dec 13, 2016 |
Okebarn:Don't waste your money on changing any rings ,it doesn't last .Perfect engine overhauling when performed by a professional involve alot which makes it more expensive than buying a new tokunbo engine. Just go for a new tokunbo engine. |
