You now feel humbled and intimidated already that’s why you’re running to your hole with your tail in between your legs.

1) I made two separate requests to the forum only for you (in a sly manner) reply both requests telling me to contact you through your phone number. Why can't you post the information here like everyone is doing. Besides, other folks in the same situation can also benefit from such information because I have benefited a lot from other people's experience on this thread. I have also helped folks on this forum in my own little way without thinking of cornering and fleecing them of their hard earned money. You can keep hoarding your knowledge and shove it up your **se. Other non cunning members of this forum will help. Just watch and see.

2) Only an unintelligent person would not have noticed that my ID/monicker is suggesting I am someone in the field of technology and I am not responsible for your inability to earn PhDs

Good evening GAZZUZZ and other car gurus,

1) I will be changing my Corolla 2010 wheels from steel to alloy and I am considering changing the TPMS and I searched for the ones for the car using the Part Number but I couldn't get them. I am considering buying from aliexpress.
TPMS Part numbers
FCC: PAXPMV107J
IC: 3729APMBV107J

2) I also want to clean, restore and protect the car headlights as I noticed they are beginning to lose brightness. Can I buy any of those Chinese made headlights restore kits in the market? I am scared of damaging the headlights because they are follow come

You were too hasty in drawing conclusions. You could have contacted him first to hear what he has to say before concluding he is out to fleece you. Kingreign has helped a lot of people here. He is in abuja and I am in lagos. But once in a while, I chat him up on whtsapp on car issues and he gives me advice on what to do or ensure my mech does. I can even bet he does not know who it is that is typing this cause we are many he comes through for. So chill bro.

HilcomTech:


Thanks so much for the advice..

But I didn't think it was right for him to have asked me to call him from the get-go. I made two separate requests to the forum only for him to reply both requests telling me to contact him through his phone number. He could have ignored my posts if he didn't want to help as there was no compulsion in him helping out. I expected anyone to post whatever information they have on the forum and if I needed to call them, I would call. Besides, I have had the need to call GAZZUZZ and other car gurus a number of times and I cannot thank them enough for bailing me out severally.

Thanks once again

For the vibration, it could be one of many reasons.

The broken mount can lead to increased vibration and noises especially when the compressor of AC puts pressure on the engine. Could also be your plugs.

Best to have an auto engineer check it out for you.

For ur Key fob,, Could be the batteries....

Auskyd:


The way you just run dey flash certificates all over the place just off me sha.

Could have avoided all this from the onset. Nothing dey this life.

My toyota Camry year 2000 recently started doing hard starting every morning.. Once it starts it goes normal for the day till the next morning.
Pls what could be the cause and remedy..
@GAZZUZZ

HilcomTech:



Sorry about the certificate thingy, I was a little miffed at the thought that some people on this forum think so highly of themselves and that one would be utterly helpless without them. I could still have gotten the information I need offline, besides Google and YouTube still dey na

Nothing dey this life as you say and I apologise once again.

Hello house.

Thanks to the OP and everyone that has contributed to the thread.

Honda Accord 2007 set a P0171 error code.

I have done a little research and found that:

1. MAF sensor could be faulty

2. Oxygen sensor

3. Exhaust leaks

4. Vacuum leaks

5. Fuel pump

6. Fuel filter

7. Injectors

8. Bad PCM.


I have tried to check the engine and there was no loose hose r something.

How can I narrow down the fault without throwing parts using scarce resources?

Thank you all for your anticipated responses.

Hello Dears Engr. Gazzuzz & other car enthusiasts here present.

My Toyota Matrix 2006 engine vibrates excessively even at 730rpm wen on D & R but smoothens out on N. Again, my confusion is, it runs very steadily on 900 to 1000rpm even on D & R.

Scanned & got these codes only:
1. P0128
2. P0441

Previous repairs: Engine mounts rear & front replaced, replaced air filter & cleaned throttle body & car has been driven more than 300miles since then. All coil are brand new, all iridium spark plugs look ok upon inspection, Change cold start switch.

Secondly, wen travelling on highway, the floorboard of the car vibrates excessively only wen i step on d gas pedal wen at 100km/hr & above. Below 100km, it runs & accelerate very fine even under heavy throttle.

Wen descending from hill with very light press on d gas pedal, it can speed up to 120km without vibration, but as soon as i throttle heavily, it starts shaking excessively.

So i try to maintain 100km/hr throughout my journey.

I need help pls.

My car stops on motion I have been going to mech shop for a week straight. I use a honda civic 2007 while moving on high speed, the steering and brakes will become stiff, battery light will appear and others will appear in the dashboard. On two occasion I have stopped at the middle of the road had to come down and push it

Nadingo:
Dunno if it will turn out to be the same fix. I complained here about this same issue on my w202 C180 and it turned out to be a clogged fuel filter (the one underneath the car). Mecho brought it out and saw that it was clogged and told me that that could affect fuel pressure most especially in the morning. Well, since it was indeed clogged, I changed it and it's been 4-5days now my car starts with the first kick in the morning.

jceesquare:

For your 1st code, your thermostat has been removed and fan running constantly.
Your 2nd code has to do with your EVAP system. Your technician might have missed one of the vacuum hose or fixed it wrongly while replacing your air filter. Also check if your vacuum hose is leaking or taped with black tape. Replace if bad.

Did you replace your engine mounts with used one, or you changed just the rubber bushings? I suspect your engine mounts to be culprit for the engine vibration.

For the vibration above 100km, take your car to an alignment shop and have the tires balanced.

kingreign:


@Bolded, Mr., stop trying to shift the goal post by lying and casting blames to garner cheap sympathy. You only reveal yourself as a slithering, lying, deceptive and cunning fellow.

You are the one who thought very highly of himself and was looking down on me thinking that I want to defraud you and without your money I’d be begging or helpless but I proved you wrong.

Like I earlier said, life is transient, and it doesn’t revolve around you.
I don’t know if you find my post to be rather disturbing or a witch-hunt, but on the whole, I’m a very plain open minded person and I don’t have any ill feelings about you.
Enjoy your new week.

Cheers!

Who dey talk 2dis one?
U smoke sheet? Abeg getat...

If not 4online forum, would CRETINS like dis 1 even find relevance?

jceesquare:

since you've narrowed your research to those components, why don't you start testing them one after the other?

Dez10:


Thanks bro.

The engine mounts are compete new ones, they're neither old nor bushing pressed into them.

Originakalokalo:


I thought there was another way.

Thank you for your response.

jceesquare:

It's safer testing each components than throwing parts at the car.

kingreign:


Check vacuum pipes, then carry out dynamic balancing on the engine mount.

To carry out dynamic balancing, slacken the bolts holding ALL mounts, start the car, engage R, D, N and P. Then tighten ALL bolts. If this doesn’t solve the problem, then GOBE.

By the way, was this car ever involved in a collision?
