Oga, this is my own opinion .
This talk of check this, check that , is not helping anybody cos the average naija technician and diy that will later do the checking is ignorant of expected good value talkless of knowing what to check and beside u already know that all these scan dtc codes is not enough to do a diagnosis , u need to see the vehicle physically to actually do further test and take more quality data
Let all these people know that u will need to see the car physically and do further test and give the car the needed fix instead of these fruitless remote Diagnosis.
I don't buy into remote Diagnosis, cos u later find it not really so .

ControlModule:

Ofcourse you are correct.
The customer has reached out to me. Hopefully I will be checking the vehicle this weekend

autologic:

That is much better

PLEASE MY 2 MONTH OLD SIENNA 06 HAS HESITANT ISSUE (slow in responding to accelerator). what do i do?

Automotech1:

it might be an electrical problem. check the switch, the wiring, the motor and fuses.

AutoMoTech:

You are welcome.
Ofcourse you are supposed to flush the radiator properly and also change the oil that was mixing with the water.
This is to avoid further damage to the part it lubricates.
Discuss with your Mechanic and pls ensure he uses original oil ooo...

AutoMoTech:

Thats most likely the oil cooler. Its the samr thing we're talking about.
Most likely the faulty part

drmuchin:



Sir I have replaced the oil cooler and changed my radiator reservoir yet the oily sludge still appearing. Though the oil in the engine dipstick appears normal.
What else do I do?
Urgent help needed
Thanks

drmuchin:



Sir after 2 months oily sludge now appearing again in my radiator reservoir.

AutoMoTech:

1. Find a competent technician with a cooling system test kit. Pressurise the system and see if it holds pressure or not. Your head gasket might be blown allowing oil to mix with coolant.
2. The oil cooler you got is used/tokunbo and most likely faulty again. Those parts are known to fail quite frequently. You might need to get a brand new one to save yourself the stress.
3. Dis you flush the system properly the last time?

drmuchin:


Dear Sir
1 Very difficult to get a technician with world class equipment
2 Can you help me buy brand new OEM oil cooler for golf 4 engine
3 Nope, I didn't flush the system prior to the second failure

Thanks for your response

AutoMoTech:

1. Sir... There was no mention of world class equipment. A cooling system test kit is just a tool box with adapters for applying pressure on the cooling system.
2. I'm sorry i cant help with that.
3. The advice was to flush before after the first fix. Residual mixture of water/coolant and oil in your engine is bad.

Where are you located?

I have bought 2 tokunboh oil cooler still problem persists. I just flushed the radiator system yet oil still appearing. My mechanic insists the problem is not from bad top gasket (his evidence is that oil in dipstick appears normal and engine idling is normal).
I will try to order a brand new oil cooler from Lagos.
Pls can I get your phone number for easier correspondence?
Thanks

AutoMoTech:

Sorry for late response. Number is on my signature
