Hello people. I bought nigerian used siena amd I discovered the indomi was missing. The car sucks fuel alot.

Apart from the indomi, is there any other thing that will make the car suck fuel alot.

I need help cos I want to buy indomi

What's indomi?

Its usually in the exhaust. Thats what d mechanics call it. I dont know the real name

Probably the catalyst pot... You may also want to run a diagnostic on your vehicle, relieves you of unnecessary spending.

Maybe he's referring to the catalyst converter. Is there any orange light (check engine light or any other) on your dashboard? If YES, take the car for a scan and post the code here.

You don't need to buy the indomi, stop at my place I got a box,

Pencil, envelope, end of discussion, discussion continue... who dey start the names self?

If d indomie (catalyst) is remove, u definitely consume more fuel as their is no back pressure within the exhaust system. U also need to run a scan on the car to check d fuel control sensors if they are still OK. Physical check of some parts on the engine should be well examine for leakages and exesive air intake into d system.

I just did scan now. They said its crank shaft sensor. They said it has to do with brainbox.

Pls advice

It's not they said. Ask them to give you the code(s), and post it here.

Am confused. The guy said no code. That the machine said is craftshaft sensor (permanent fault).. am tired. He charged 30k to work on it.

Where is your location? call me if you are in Abuja for a scan so you can know the codes yourself. 07019122591. Has your thermostat been removed?

No. If there's no code. I advice you take the car to another place. He wants to rip you off. How did he conclude on crank shaft sensor without a code? I smell something fishy.

guy I use a 2000 sienna though it has no fault but I scanned a toyota Camry big daddy and what ever is wrong with it, the scanner will tell you even if it is crank shaft sensor, it will through a code and then interprete it for you telling exactly which sensor and position is bad. as someone has said, the guy wan rip you off. the engine of that car is one tough moda4ka, but once you allow a quack engineer to tamper with it, u won't enjoy the ride.

High fuel consumption and black smoke? possibly dirty MAF sensor, if so a scan will point to that. good luck.

Indomie is called the catalytic converter.It reduces fuel econonomy but not as the way the portray.
