Good afternoon everybody. My honda civic 2006 AC problem.
After refilling my AC gas, it will only take two weeks for the AC gas to turn to ordinary air(and stop cooling) until i put AC gas again.
I assure you that the system is not leaking, because the technicians(3 different technicians) always measure it using their pressure meter. The problem is that the cold AC gas will just turn to air within two-three weeks.

When ever i want to refill the gas, i will just loose the air inside the system and put ac gas. I have been refilling almost all the time. Please help me out.

AC system leak.

Find leak.

Good professionals... Please... I just got a Toyota rav4 2002 model manual transmission, but the fuel gauge indicator on the dashboard isn't working, technicians have checked for me and said its from the dashboard that am going to change it.... So I try checking it online but I needed someone into parts to know its price or probably other possible solutions.

This vehicle comes in 2 types.

One made for the Nigerian market without a purge valve (very popular)

And one made for other markets with a purge valve.

The problem is when you replace the engine ECU and what you put is not for our market, it starts looking for devices that do not exist .

Thank you so much for this. I really appreciate your response. It means that changing the ECU to the ideal one will solve this and other issues.

Go for distill water instead or AC water if you cant afford the right coolant in meantime

It's condensation from very cold pipes. You should bend down and look under with a flash light, might be some evaporator job not coupled back properly

Good afternoon.

Please can you share what you used to scan the car.

Did you do it yourself using a device or you visited a car diagnostic specialist for this.

Thanks.

Good afternoon everyone

@Gazzuzz and all, please what's the recommended car scanner for Toyota Camry 2009 (Muzzle).

Just got it and I'm seeing some strange signs in the dashboard and the rate of fuel consumption is high, so I want to scan to know exactly what's wrong.

I'll appreciate your responses greatly.

Thanks.

Well, I believe any scanner would do... As long as it's obd2 compliant

Good day, I use a 2003 Toyota Camry 2AZ-FE. Recently, the driver side firewall started vibrating when vehicle is on Drive, no vibration on N or P. I changed fuel pump, my electrician washed the fuel pump assy using thinner. The vibration stopped for some days. CEL is on after driving for some time. No CEL at starup. The last scanning didn't show any error codes.
Thanks in anticipation

New gearbox for this car no be bean
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Jimraz4: 10:24am On Aug 28, 2022
Good morning Oga Gazzuzz and other car Gurus in the house. I use Nissan Almera 2000. My problem started when the car started shorting engine oil. My mechanic recommended that I should ring the engine.
I told him am skeptical about the idea, but when I ask for the price of new engine it's on a high side so I opted for the ringing which cost me 50k. After the ringing I discovered the car temperature is rising even on short distances. Have not travelled far with the car after the ringing.

Pls I need advice on what could be the issue and solution, plus the engine makes more noise unlike before. Like when i reach my destination and put the gear on park. The engine makes noise like am reving it but am not.

Pls I need your advice. Thanks

probably changed while the gear was hot and this may have spoilt the gear. I think I have read about this issue several times on this platform.
