Hope this helps.

2005 EOD.
My silencer sounded deep bass whenever I was moving in reverse, but sounded fine when moving forward. Mechanic replaced theanifold and it was solved.
While driving to work, I stopped to refuel.
Started engine immediately after and check engine light came on in the next 3 secs.
Scanned when I got home. Codes were P1157 and P0134. Erased codes and restarted engine. CEL was on again after 3 secs. Code was now only P1157 -- Air/Fuel ratio sensor .......... blah blah.

YouTube to the rescue, I was able to locate the sensor. No sign of physical damage.
I checked the plug/harness; it seemed fine, not loose.
Nevertheless, I decided to press it in further. Lo and behold, it clicked into place. (meaning it wasn't properly fixed even though it initially looked so).

I erased DTC and started engine, no check engine light. Drove to work and back and still nothing. FAULT RESOLVED.

Always check plugs and wires and fuses first.
Hope this helps somebody.

Specialist900:

captainking:

captainking:

Thanks bro.. I already changed the sensors and all codes clleared..no more check engine light.. But I wanna ask.. What distance can fuel of 2k take you. In Miles I mean.. That's.. 13 litres. Still measurinf the fuel consumption of my car...

ThatErha:


At present, I'm like you bro.
Still trying to measure mine too.
Will update here when I arrive at some figures.

Specialist900:
yes o. An electrician fixed it for me

captainking:
allright bro.. Let's keep the update.

ThatErha:
@ captainking,
Sorry this is late but I managed to get some figures.

City driving with 2k fuel.....
58 miles without AC.
44 miles with AC on.

Seems poor compared to the factory rating, but I guess this na Naija readings.
How many miles do you get with yours?
I will check my own..

Any other EOD user on this thread? Please let us know your approximate fuel consumption too.
Thanks as you do.

sultaan:
3.7 litres = 1gallon

A decent average should be 21mpg (19 for V6) midsize car and 24mpg compact car.

opomulero:
1 gallon is either 4 or 5 liters in nigeria o, where u gos see 1gal = 3.78.

with inaccurate meters dy use at fuel station.

This is an example of what I was talking about trying to avoid.
