Experts here, what's your review on mazda 6 1.8L 2007 model. Is this car durable? Is it a good buy for a first timer? |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 6:36am On Sep 15, 2022 |
ManAdii:That’s a ford Mondeo underneath that Mazda badge, I believe it’s an European Mazda6. It’s not bad but you’d have to be careful owning that ride so as not to allow unqualified technicians tamper with and destroy the car for you. That said, they have robust engines. |

Good day great great minds. Sometime last month, the error code P0172 just popped up on Honda accord 08. I have changed the Maf sensor two times, bought a MAF sensor cleaner and I have cleaned them several times but after driving several kilometers, the eroor would just pop up again. My observation is that the error doesn't pop up while the car is speed but only when it is idling or moving at low speed. The 02 sensor was also confirmed to be working properly |

Cool83:when RPM going up and down it means anytime u service they don't clean the air filter so mechanic needs to clean the injector |

ManAdii: Mazda 6 and first timer don’t mix well especially when it’s a Nigerian used Mazda 6. Please, get another car that’s easier to maintain and has parts and technicians. |

kingreign: No heads up or direction on what the problem could be? |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by MedicH: 8:07pm On Sep 17, 2022 |
just a random question. Will a transmission problem always throw up the CEL? My guy's car is losing power on acceleration and he is caught up between having issues with his fuel pump or a slipping auto transmission. The car has no check engine light. is there any random DIY check he can perform to be sure of what is causing this problem? |

MedicH:Transmission problems on cars equipped with the 3mz engine doesn't always light up the check engine light. Your guy may go ahead and change the trans oil with the type tiv trans fluid if it hasn't been done recently. This happened to someone I know recently and after throwing parts (coil,plug, mag, 02 sensor etc) at the car, a simple change of the trans oil solved his poor acceleration issues. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by MedicH: 8:40pm On Sep 17, 2022 |
9icetoo: As i was trying to understand my guy's problem i took the car for a spin on the freeway. I noticed something that feels like a surge in accelaration. That is sudden dropping and picking up of power/speed when accelerating. It is most noticeable when u speed up from a stop then u notice a sudden drop in RPM and loss of acceleration and it attempts to pick up same and it just keeps surging like that. he will proceed with the transmission fluid change, the last servicing of the transmission was done last 2 months with Oando ATF. |

Almost every morning i check my oil level and color on thr dipstick before starting the engine. I can say its a normal habit. Drove to work yesterday all was fine. I always check my gauge clusters anytime im opportune. Lets just say every 5 minutes. Mostly the oil pressure and engine temperature. I got to work fine engine was ok till i turned off. 5pm time to go home, i noticed a chocolate milk drip on the floor. I was like what the heck happened. Checked my radiator coolant was gone. I feared for the worst so i checked the oil fill cap, it was milky too. I then checked the dipstick and then my fear was confirmed. Ive got coolant in oil. So i opened the drain plug of my radiator there was no oil mixing with coolant in the radiator. Just coolant in the oil. Started it up and drove less than 40kmh with the radiator cap open. When the temperature climbed abit above half i stopped for 30mins. Checked the radiator. It was still not having oil in. So i topped it up with water(my mistake). Then the temperature dropped. Still rolling at 40 then when the temperature climbed i started losing power till i couldn't push no more had to shut down the engine. Radiator was still not having oilixed with water but the engine was choked up with diluted oil and coolant mix. Called my brother for help. No vehicle could tow mine cuz its a big truck and hd drove an automatic. Later a friend of his driving by in a 6 wheeler dyna gave me a pull to my brother's home where i parked it. Couldn't sleep. Seeing videos on YouTube on blown head gasket symptoms. The vehicle never overheated. Whys the coolant going into oil? So today i got my tools and tore down the big engine myself. Got to the head gasket and asked the professors. They said it was compromised thats why i only had leakage in 2 of 6 cylinders. Even when i drove this vehicle from delta to lagos and back with a clogged radiator as a result of stop leak clogged it didn't blow a gasket and that was 3 years ago. HOW DID IT HAPPEN? CAN HEAD GASKET GO OUT WITHOUT OVER HEATING? THE HEAD GASKET HASNT BEEN CHANGED SINCE THE CAR WAS IMPORTED AND THAT WAS before 2012. So what happened. Is it possible to get the gasket cuz its an old vehicle 1992 land cruiser. CAN GASKET BE CUT IF I CANT FIND TO BUY? Please help. Im a diy im not a mechanic. I only fix heavy duty gensets thats why i knew how to take my engine apart with ease
