Good evening professionals in the house.
Please i need your help and i would try to make it as short as possible.
My car has been having a series of issues after i got into a pothole that broke 1 of the front hub of the front tyre. The hub was resting on the fan belt when it broke but i changed that though when i took it to the mechanic to repair because i was perceiving the smell of burnt tyre, but ever since then, my front shraft hasn't been the same again. Each time i turn the steering wheel it makes a lost of cracking noise now on both legs mostly when I'm on lets say 25 to 40kmp but above i hardly hear it. When i try to reverse or do cornering, even dangote truck steering wheel isn't as hard to steer as mine. 1 thing i noticed is that, steering wheel is soft in the morning when car is cool but cracking noise is still there and it gets hard when engine is hot. Changed shraft already on Wednesday, had the mechanic review it again on Friday because it still keeps making the same noise. Please what should i do, thinking of carrying it back tomorrow to check if it something else that's 60k drown the drain already and also, i changed the steering oil and put a new 1 on Friday but still same stiffness, i feel something else is wrong. My ogas abeg come to my aid.

Is it a factory alarm or an aftermarket 3rd party alarm?

jceesquare:

Any impact that broke your hub would most likely affect other suspension components.
Check all your suspension components (lower arm, spring, shock, ball joint, thyroid, tyre, rim) if bent, bad, or out of alignment and fix.
Also check to see if the impact affected your beam.
For worst case scenario, you might need to also inspect your differential in your transmission.
For the stiff steering, your pump, rack or both needs to be replaced with new ones

Tyre, rim, shock and spring are in perfect shape my guess is lower arm or ball joint.

My Corolla 09

Car driving gud though Abs and brake light on, have been driving like that for months with no issue until I decided to change hub bearing and shaft which were all making noise, after changes I test run the car and all went fine until the next day,

I drove from Gbagada to Ikorodu all went smooth and on coming back to Gbagada I observe car transmission shifting at gear 3 and 4, I managed to drive it to base at Gbagada.

Called my mechanic, we scanned the car and it brings out ... Code P0751, shift Solenoid A performance/stuck off, called in a gear master and he said I have to service the valve body and possibly check all the solenoids.

After gear master servicing, installing bigger switch and change of oil to original ATF WS ... We tested the car and still doing same thing. Scanned the car again but all transmission code gone only left with ABS code C0215 and C0221.

Please I need solution to this problem of my Car

Good evening house,

Please my steering is always very hard to turn when I am stationary while pressing break, until I lift my foot from the break or throttle a little before if functions normally again. It makes it really difficult to come turn or come out of very small space.

Please advise

Thanks

Check power steering pressure hose or pump connection and ensure the socket is well fitted in.
Your ECU is not getting command to increase idle when you turn the steering.

AutoConsult:

It's either your steering pump is getting weak or your idle running is too low. Does the vehicle vibrate when it's stationary?

kingreign:


Check steering rack for leaks, check pressure pipe for leaks, if any, replace the failed parts and replace the power steering pump

kingreign:


Replace the front right ABS sensor and check if the rear left ABS wiring Is connected, if it is, swap left wiring to right, test and record. If the code moves to right, it's wiring if code stays in left rear, replace hub.

Hi guys. Please I need some assistance. My 08 Accord kind of want to swerve off road if I brake @120km or above, if I try to slow down with brake it forcefully turn my steering making the car moving like it wants to leave the road. So if I’m @120 speed or above I will have to release the throttle then when the speeds drops to 100 I will then apply brake very slowly

I experienced this the very first time I traveled interstate with the car. And that was the only time I have traveled interstate with the car since I bought it

The only notable things I did to the car when I bought it are
1, change driver side shaft
2, change both ball joint
3, change tire from 225/50 R17 to 225/55 R17 for front and 235/55 R17 for back
4, raised the car with one black rubber

The mechanic said he will use one black rubber that will be added to the shock absorbers to raise it a little , after raising with that rubber a friend warned me that I won’t be able to travel with it because that rubber always have a bad effect when you are on high speed but he said I won’t notice anything if I’m driving around town. Now I don’t know if it’s the rubber or something else

The way it swerve is really scary especially when I am beside a trailer and I want to quickly slow down to let it go

Good evening great minds,
Pls I drive a 2005 lexus es330, I recently changed the water pump and since then I observed that
1.There is a water flowing sound (like water running through holes from the dashboard) that the car makes whenever I start the car, very strange sounds o.
2. Each time I brake at a bump or speed breaker, it sluggishly picks up and jacks as well before driving smoothly.
Kindly advise me on what to do pls.

Bobxin:


Okay, thanks.

Is your ABS and traction control on?
Have you checked if your brake pads are installed properly, and that the brake pads are the right type?
Check if your brake caliper binds on one wheel or is stuck?
Check also your lower control arm if the bushing is broken, it can cause similar problems.
