orobo is still big daddy right ? camry 2003- 2006 rite ? |
Re: Ask Seun by oluwaseunla(m): 4:43pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
b2212: Budget around 103k for a good after market, and around 185k for an OEM. Both brand new. |

neyoskye: Run a scan if check engine light is on. |
Re: Ask Seun by oluwaseunla(m): 4:46pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
mrbigseun: Lagos to Ilorin route will involve the Oyo-Ogbomosho road. The Rav4 may serve you better on that route due to better ground clearance. |

thebigkendo: The code is back too? |
Re: Ask Seun by thebigkendo(m): 5:25pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
oluwaseunla: Yap.. Same code |
Re: Ask Seun by oluwaseunla(m): 5:52am On Mar 21, 2018 |
thebigkendo: Have you checked all fuses? While at it, inspect ground to battery and the ECM itself. Pray you don't need a new ECM. |
Re: Ask Seun by eyeview: 6:00am On Mar 21, 2018 |
Car wont accelerate when being throttled. After some seconds of being throttled, it will just speed up. Car was parked for a long time though. What could be wrong |
Re: Ask Seun by oluwaseunla(m): 6:03am On Mar 21, 2018 |
eyeview: Which vehicle is this? What year model? Is there a check engine light? |
Re: Ask Seun by eyeview: 6:06am On Mar 21, 2018 |
oluwaseunla:Yes. The check engine light is on. Nissan frontier 2003 |
Re: Ask Seun by oluwaseunla(m): 6:12am On Mar 21, 2018 |
eyeview: Run a scan first. It's easier that way. Is your throttle pedal stiff? |

Mr seun please I need advice on a car to get ... I am stuck between picking a Toyota matrix or a golf 4. Putting low cost maintenance in play . Please which of this car can someone buy as a first car and it's economical . Thanks for you reply. I hope I can ask other questions after you answer this . |

Waju83: A Toyota matrix may be better than the golf 4 in our environment. 1 Like |

pls. my corolla gear doesn't engage reverse anymore but drives well. should I repair or buy another gear? |
Re: Ask Seun by Waju83(m): 12:12pm On Mar 21, 2018 |
oluwaseunla: "May be" can you please be specific as I am torn between which to get .... which ever one you choose to be better can you also just give a few reasons why? For both what can be the highest amount spent on the worst that can happen if they were to have a breakdown. Thanks for your reply |
Re: Ask Seun by thebigkendo(m): 1:08pm On Mar 21, 2018 |
oluwaseunla: All fuses checked.. All okay, ground to battery seems okay. ECM has not been checked |
Re: Ask Seun by oluwaseunla(m): 2:13pm On Mar 21, 2018 |
Waju83: Most mechanics can fix most things a matrix. The systems are simpler than that of the golf 4. The golf 4 on the other hand will require someone whose skill set is a little above basic. The system is a little more complicated than the matrix. 1 Like |
Re: Ask Seun by Waju83(m): 3:14pm On Mar 21, 2018 |
oluwaseunla: Thank you very much for the insight .... you might be the one to help with it whenever it's due for any maintenance. Hope the matrix is more fuel efficient and economical too than the golf . ? |
Re: Ask Seun by oluwaseunla(m): 3:42pm On Mar 21, 2018 |
Waju83: Fuel economy will be dependent on a lot of factors. If you are buying Nigerian used, try not to buy a bad car. Bad maintenance is not a respecter of brand. 1 Like |

oluwaseunla: I try not to buy a bad one , more reason I am grateful for this thread so I can seek advice . Please for the matrix which year would you advice one to get between 2003 to 2007 . Thanks for the help |
