Reinstall your thermostat.

Hello, which do you think is better? Nigerian used Hyundai 2012 or a Foreign used Ford 2010. The plan is to give it out for Uber. I am also looking at its second hand value when I decide to sell the Car.

Thanks and awaiting your reply.

Haa it is far better sir.

Better, reliable and more powerful engine (2.5l vs 2.4 l) The 4 cyl engine is cheaper as a result.
better and more reliable gearbox for the 4 cyl and v6
better looks
Better sound insulation.
Better resale value.

hi motoguru.

Please i need your assistance on my honda accord 2005 i4 . My gear is giving me issues...when i drive..i believe between gears 1 and 2, not so sure about the gear range..it flares...or should i use the word..skips...as in,,,my rpm goes high upto 4 or 5 before it engages with a thud..it dosent happen all the time though...followed by brief loss of power...when this happens, i quickly depress the accelerator pedal.so the gear changes back to lower gear and its fine from there..what could be the problem...no codes yet after scanning...any thoughts

MotorGuru:


Mechanical malfunction of gear rebuild or replace(better option)

MotorGuru:
P0780(Shift control system) says it all ( was just careful to assume initially). You have a mechanical problem with your gearbox.

What happens is that once your gear approaches operating temperature , it starts slamming into gear(and in some cases stuck in gear 3)

Replace gearbox.

Toylove:

Good evening boss

dear Motor gurus in the house, i drive a 2007 volkwagen jetta 1.6L. my major issue is the break pedal goes in soft atymes and i have to pedal 2-3 times before bringing the car to a halt, pls whats the major cause of this as its mostly an electronic drive car and the break fluid is in tact.

also, when starting up the car most times and when on the road breaking and decelerating, the power steering indicator goes red and the steering becomes really hard to maneuver...like trailer steering . pls how can I remedy these issues as i really like this car. thanks
