Mine has this same issue. Same year and vehicle type. On top speed, when I apply brakes, it vibrates and there's a kind of shaking on the tire as if bolts were not properly tight (which it is)

I changed all my brake pads and discs which stopped the vibration. U can try it.

Then I changed my gear oil filter and d car is just fine now

Scan it. I suspect it will likely be your throttle position sensor

Scan the car first. A lot of things cause high fuel consumption. For the vomiting, its tied to the intake line from that connects to the tank. If the car was accidented around that area, it could be that line has twisted. Get a panel beater to check it out.

Eldemmi:


check your engine mounts (seats).

Gear switches will usually be the culprit. I hope it was original honda dw1 you used for the oil? If yes and oil level is fine, change the two gear switches.

Engine mounts will make the car jerk while accelerating or decelarating.

My car is Honda Accord 2002, Petrol, Automatic, I4. My current problem with the car has to do with Engine hesitation and rough and slow drivability. I scan the vehicle and Po172 code pop up. so far have change the following, the nozzles, the plugs, coolant temperature sensor, air filter, 02 sensor, Air intake, and also clean the Idle control but all to know avail. I will appreciate if you can help because am running out of options.

P0172 HONDA - Fuel System Too Rich Bank 1

Possible causes

- Faulty front heated oxygen sensor

- Ignition misfiring

- Faulty fuel injectors

- Exhaust gas leaks

- Incorrect fuel pressure

- Faulty Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor

Check your possible causes. I would start with the fuel pressure regulator. There was an issue with moisture in the fuel pressure regulator which habitually used to cause this problem. Recommendations at the time were to replace the fuel pressure regulator, and reroute the fuel pressure regulator vacuum line.There is a technical bulletin about it. Your Honda mechanic should have access to that. If not, I think I can still get it through Alldata, just let me know if you can not get it from your garage. Hope this helps, good luck

First of all have the egr valve cleaned by a good mechanic. Also service the injector nozzles.

On the a/c issue, u may have to replace the refrigerant. Make sure ur ac guys uses original refrigerant (gas). Ac issues are a bit delicate and difficult to proffer solutions to online. It's usually best to have your ac technician knowing what's best for ur situation and doing it.

Better to change both. Except its a low mileage car. I use a honda and they do not take lightly to servicing these components at high mileages.

Jaygrl:

My hubby recently bought Honda CR-V 2003 model(Naija used) for me. It has been from one issue to another. At first it was the gear but it was fixed,one of the days I took the car out it just stopped on the road and the mechanic came to check the car and said he will change a certain switch which he did. In the last 2days now,when driving the steering will be hard all of a sudden and the car will go off showing battery sign on the dashboard. The battery is relatively new,please what do you advice I do?

lol. 9ja used cars are always a bad deal cuz few people maintain cars properly. Being a woman, I would advise you dispose of the car now. You will need tons of money to get it to be very roadworthy again.

But for the current issue, the alternator is bad or some other wiring issue.

Some of you guys whose cars don't have check engine light on might have had it taken off by whoever sold the car to you.

Quick check, turn your key to position 1 (i.e. one step) you should see the check engine light appear for about 2 seconds, then disappear. If you don't see the check engine light... the bulb has been removed or covered.

stchuksie, dominic17

Please my check engine does not go off

Scanning did not show any fault in the car

Hi Fam,

A friend mine recently bought a Gold II Volkswagen, he has driven it for about 6months until last Saturday or so that he mentioned that it stopped at a point on the road as he was driving and refused to start.


1. Make - Volkswagen German Golf
2. Model - Golf II
3. Year of manufacture - 1991
4. Manual or automatic - Manual
5. Number of cylinders - Not sure (i think 1)
6. Diesel or petrol or Hybrid - Petrol
7. Issues with the car - The car just stopped as he drove, and one he tries to start it, it starts and goes of again. When you try to Accelerate, it does not, it only goes off. The car cant move. The Brain Box become Extremely hot that one cant touch it.

The Mechanic has worked on it, Change the Cylinder, changed the brainbox, change the coil, change carburetor, changed ignition, still not working.
Help will be appreciated.

Thanks

The SH-AWD light comes on together with the CHECK ENGINE light , when you turn off the ignition and turn it on again , the SH-AWD light disappears.
It doesn’t affect the movement of the vehicle as it still drive well.
The last scan I did with a friend brought the codes below.
How can I reset the TPMS in the same vehicle.

You may be needing a transmission flush and fresh transmission fluid. Make sure you use a good quality ATF approved for Nissans.
