Oga Gazzuzz and other gurus, thank you for all the good work.

I intend to take my new 2012 accord to a rewire to fix a security to it, the one that turns off the engine after 5 minutes when the security is not pressed. I had such in my old 2003 Camry and it worked fine.

kindly advice if this is okay with no consequence for this type of accord, please.

Maintaining your car is crucial for ensuring its longevity and performance. Here are some maintenance tips to keep your car running smoothly:

1. Regular oil changes: Oil is the lifeblood of your engine and needs to be changed regularly to keep it running smoothly. Refer to your owner's manual for the recommended oil change intervals.
2. Check tire pressure: Make sure your tires are properly inflated to the recommended pressure. Under-inflated or over-inflated tires can affect your car's handling and fuel efficiency.
3. Replace air filters: Dirty air filters can reduce your car's performance and fuel efficiency. Check your owner's manual for the recommended replacement interval.

The led-light
The Two white lights
The spraying ( slight dent caused) by a keke



Anybody have any idea of the amount 4 this ?

It can be fixed. Just that it takes days to 1week for technicians to solve it manually. Whereby they have to trace the leak wire by wire, fuse by fuse and component by component.



But there is a video I watched and stored on my fon that a techguy did it on a spot within like 2hours.

I just can't locate the video in my fon at the moment.


For now, u may have to be unplugging one of the terminal heads of your battery at the end of every driving day.

you should get someone to check if the oil is due for change so you don’t waste money. Gear oil doesn’t go bad or need change often like your engine oil

Hello guys, what is the recommended transmission fluid for 2005 Toyota corolla sport? I've driven my car for over two years now and I have not replaced the oil. In fact, I've not serviced the gear oil since I bought the car so I don't know which oil to use. Kindly recommend the best fluid and the recommended quantity. Cc: Gazzuzz, nurey, kingreign

Good morning!

I drive a 2008 Honda Crv EX-L

Had some issues with my transmission, gear was slipping. Took it to a "gear specialist" who claimed to have scanned the car and seen the issue.

Anyways, he did his "fix", I got the car back, wasn't satisfied with the job then I scanned.

My 2008 Honda Crv threw the following code:
P0713
P0747
P1731
P0780

Is this gear still salvage-able or I should "sope otilo"?

misfire on cylinder 4.

Since I guess you have explored all spark and fuel supply options, it is time to check compression options with a cylinder compression tool.

Sadly I can guess the technicians working for you have no idea what I am talking about.


You might have to go the crude way of just repeating valve grinding .and hope for the best.

However Severe overheating can also affect piston rings so you might just have your work cut out for you.

God speed
