I specialise in Peugeot.

If you were in Abuja, I have a Japanese technician in Abuja I would have recommended to you.

Ikenna351, Lion King - Monk.

You mean he's a Japanese or he specializes in Japanese cars?

Please can you help convince him to come up to Jalingo?

I have a complete repair manual for your car. Drop an email I will forward it to so you can be ontop the issues with your car. Then before heading out to meet any kazz you’d know what to expect. If you don’t have money for a scanner for now you can jump the holes on your obd2 port to get the raw codes and use as a clue to your ECU’s MIL light issues. Take a small thin flexible wire and stick it in the holes numbered 4 & 9 on your obd2 port under the drivers dash, turn the cat of your ignition to on (but not crank) and watch the MIL, ABS and AIRBAG indicators blink on your console. Take a video of the entire blinking process and send it to me to interpret it for you. To get the total codes just turn the key and watch it blinking for up to 1min and record the entire process.

Accord is a nice easy car to fix by yourself if you want to

Men all these terminologies are freaking the hell out of me.

I just wanna dump the car in an expert's lap, and have him return the car to me in pristine condition, dazzol!

OP my problem with you is that you seem to never take any advice given to you. Or are you always drunk? Scan car you no gree scan. Better advice given you no gree take. Well, buy the crankshaft and we'll be here waiting to hear the next item they'll tell you to buy. Good luck.

Okay bro, would do that 2mao...the car had actually been uncoupled before the advice started rolling in. Just thought of letting people in on what's going on. Sorry if I misled you with my posts, too much work on my plate man...

For brake please top up the brake fluid.

Once my camry fluid is low it shows brake sign on dashboard.
once your brake fluid is low, it's an indication of worn brake pads.... Next time, don't add oil, simply Change the pads

That's what I've been trying to do. I think I have to 1st of all get youtube videos that depict the general mechanism a car works, then I can know how to fix any abnormalities that arise.
Let an experienced automotive electrician diagnose the issue of the blinking drive indicator... It could be a solenoid issue

Hello fellas!

I don come with my wahala again, but that's the life of a first timer taking care of this wahala called car.

Well I successfully put my ride back in shape but here are issues I'm now facing:

1. My MIL(check engine) light was previously blinking anytime I drive, but after some mechanical works today, it has stayed put any time I'm driving. I browsed the internet for some info and found out a faulty airflow meter usually causes it. Actually a part of my airflow meter is broken anyway due to the accident, which makes the car make noise like trailer.

Was told an airflow meter goes for about 10k, bear in mind I reside in Taraba state.

2. Anytime I drive, my drive D keeps blinking, even after refilling the transmission oil with 1L of transmission oil, as i saw on the net as well that it's the commonest cause of a blinking D on the dashboard. Wetin una think?

3. Sometimes the car goes off itself while driving yesterday, and was diagnosed today as one of the plugs being faulty. Had the whole 3 of the front plugs changed today and it hasn't gone off itself since then. But there's this low sound it makes while it's on idle, as if it wants to go off, before going back to it's normal sound again. This sounds is worsened anytime I switch on my AC. Make una epp me check am out!

4. Finally the Brake light keeps showing, despite the Brake working perfectly. This is giving me serious concern as the info I got on the net says it means the brake isn't working as it's supposed to. Checked the "master slender" as they called it for the brake oil, and saw the brake oil is reduced. Yet to top it up, but I go still like know weda anything apart from brake oil fit cause am, to be prepared before hand.

Thank ya'll for the comments in my previous post. Abeg make una epp me put mouth for this one too ooo!

Nagode soose!

Spend some time on this thread https://www.nairaland.com/3661728/on-board-diagnostics-obd-ii-questions

Understand the concept of OBD II diagnostics, then fixing automotive issues will become more relatable to you

Buying the scanner is a good step, understanding how to use is the next best step, sharing the information it gives you with others who want to help will take you farther than this diagnostics by speculation that you have been practicing so far

You could also get a factory repair manual to complete missing gaps in the picture

Good luck
