U need to follow the codes in resolving ur car problems, it's better to even run a further scan on the transmission to get d actual fault code from the transmission. The lose of power on Mazda can be cause by the cam code related issue.

Car Talk / Re: Advice Needed On Motor Vehicle To Purchase by autofixng: 7:14pm On Jun 09, 2019
All of the cars u mention are OK as long as u have a good maintenance culture. Corolla is a good buy but the only factor is the environmental factor which is prone to buggle of the parts when packed in an open place. If u're scared of accord because of the ball joint then u settle for a civic which has better fuel economy than corolla and as well as same suspension system like corolla. But for the ball joint of accord that pull its due to our poor handling and bad part.

Corolla is a good car but only issue is that it's prone to vandals, the car is not safe anywhere u packed it. Honda civic is a good car as well. U're safe with it anytime and never bother of theft where ever u pack the car.

Car Talk / Re: Pls People, What Does Dis Mean? by autofixng: 7:24am On Jan 26, 2016
U can actually use the trips to set some parameters in ur vehicle such as to determine wat milage u need to do some things. Eg; When you do your oil service, u can reset either the trip a or b to 00000 by holding d reset botton down for like 3 seconds. By this u know wat milage u cover before the next service. U can also use it to get the distance from ur take off point to ur destination point etc.

The throttle body is refer to as injector mouth by the local Mech. Try service the injector nozzle as well. Replace the air filter and also check the fuel pump pressure and filter. Servicing all these parts will definitely resolve ur problem.

Car Talk / Re: My Siena 2000 And Fuel Consumption by autofixng: 6:45am On Jun 13, 2015
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.
Car Talk / Re: Help With Error Codes On Camry 2002-2006 I4 Engine by autofixng: 10:59am On Mar 29, 2015
P0141 is either heater circuit is open or short or the heater of the O2 sensor is faulty.

Check the sensor heater if faulty then replace, if not faulty then trace fault on circuit.

The sensor is located on the exhaust manifold at the front of the engine.

P1131: Air fuel sensor heater circuit malfunction.

The two codes are pointing to one issue. So the above procedure should be adopted in resolving it.

Call for further information or if need be to visit our shop



nurey:
Today I helped a friend scan his big daddy and what codes I found are p0141 and p1135, find attached the error codes and what the scanner pointed to, also I need to know where the sensor is located.
Cc gazzuzz, lomomike, siena, decotech et al. Thanks

What are the meaning of these codes in Mitsubishi Montero sport?
P0161 O2 sensor heater circuit bank.
P0400 exhaust gas recirculation flow.
Thanks.

P0161 is either heater circuit is open or short or the heater of the O2 sensor is faulty.

Check the sensor heater if faulty then replace, if not faulty then trace fault on circuit.

P400 is when u have exessive exhaust gas coming back into the combustion chamber as a result of blocked exhaust system or malfunction of the EGR system.

Car Talk / Re: My Sienna 2006 Goes Off While Driving. Any Solution. by autofixng: 9:36am On Sep 24, 2014
shawn5ng: My sienna goes off while driving. After diagnosis was told I need to buy crankshaft sensor, sensor heater control circuitp and oxygen sensor.
Anybody with this kind of issue b4, please share your experience and what you do to get it back to normal.
How much can I get these things in ladipo market.
GAZZUZZ:
Crank shaft position sensor is the culprit, check if the sockets of terminals are corroded, toyota crank sensors hardly fail. The other code is for your oxygen sensor but you did not specify what bank.

Yes you might be right, I hope proper diagnoses was done and not a guess diagnoses because d CKP sensor don't fail like that. For the other sensor it does not allow ur car to go off but it has to do more on ur fuel consumption.

You can post ur fault code so as to get more enlightenment in the house.

Just for u not to buy the sensors and find out you are still face with thesame problem.

Car Talk / Re: Fuel Consumption by autofixng: 2:36pm On Sep 17, 2014
What are your parameters that makes you to conclude that the car is consuming fuel?

If your assertion is right, kindly answer the below questions:
1. Has the fan been run direct?
2. Is the thermostat remove?
3. Is the CEL light ON?

If Q1 and Q2 is Yes then that is the beginning of your fuel consumption.

For Q3 you need to run a scan to further probe into the actual cause of your claim.

bimbor:
My Car is "2008 Toyota Camry XLE with the 2AZFE Engine.
No, the car does not vibrate at start up
Yes, the CEL is on now.
No, after I've driven some distance and the engine warms up to optimal temperature it doesn't start at such high rpm, usually after the engine heats up, the start up rpm is around 1200rpm and then drops immediately to 1000. The harsh rpm only occurs with cold start when engine temperature is at zero.
omicron: You should do a diagnostic scan then to diagnose the cause of the CEL being on.
It is still possible that the rev pattern is unconnected with the CEL being on, cos I know cars whose pattern of start up rev is that way without any problems.

Yes you need to run a scan on the car and also avoid guess work on it.

Car Talk / Re: My Car Doesnt Start Sometimes - Nissan Sentra 05 by autofixng: 10:24pm On Sep 15, 2014
magictouch: Hello People,
for 3 weeks now my car sometimes refuses to start, I dont know why cos I just serviced it a week and some days ago.
it hasnt happened in the morning but afternoon after driving for a while. I went somewhere last week, after spending about 15mins
I got into the car and wanted to go but it didnt start, it just kept giving a rolling sound. I tried severally yet no way. I called up the mechanic, he said it was fuel pump which I changed and it started working. 6 days after, I drove the car to a place and parked, by the time I wanted to start the car like 5mins after, it didnt start again. I tried for some minutes without success, then started calling my mechanic, by the time I finally got through to him, it was 2hours after and he said he was far away. So I decided to try again and it started, this was on Saturday and it's been working fine since then.
This has happened like 3 time in the last 2 weeks, pls doesnt any one know what could be wrong with the car.
Please note that it is not battery as the battery is working perfectly

Am sure you have one if this light on your instrument cluster.

Why allow guess work on your car?

I hope you keep the replaced fuel pump and stop the further guess work on your car and go for a diagnosis of the system so as to know the actual cause of the malfunction.

Check our signature for full car diagnosis.
