Some of these mechanics can be terrible. They can get a gear that has been replaced from one customer and sell to you. I dont know how this works in Abuja, BUT in lagos there are scan places everywhere.

Why dont you try another scan place, at least let them tell you what sensors are detected bad (IF ANY) and you can start from there BEFORE buying another gear. Sorry for the wahala.

@chief, thanks alot for your help.

I'm not at home now looks like a loose sensor, will double check when i get home.

Read the codes and see what applies.

sbm,
what a big relief! i bet it must be the loose sensors causing all this wahala in the first place.

after this experience, you now know what to do should something like this occur in the future.

cheers!

Gents,

I got home today and drove the car around for a long time, the car didnt stall and the steaming was excellent. It acted as if nothing has ever happened to it before,

The check engine light is off and everything seems normal. I think the time is just right to sell

I hope this is the end of this problem, and I sincerely want to appreciate you all.

@dustydee, take your time and dont be in a hurry. I think that thing works like magic, i mean patience. In a bid to fix it hurriedly, you will become desperate and get into wrong hands. Just set your mind that you dont have a car at the moment and take it slowly, Stop driving the car so you dont cause more damage to it,

sorry, the above post is from me. someone logged on to nairaland on my system and i thought its my log on,

sbm!
your already thinking about offloading that rod?! sharp man!

now you can join the growing list of altima naija used sellers!

;DWhy the silence from siena and the other xperts.have we not learnt something from the way the issue was fixed. Partial contact of a MAF sensor can cause engine to stall?discuss

interesting gazzuzz
