olushola4me:your coolant is mixing with oil. Could be a head gasket that's blown or a cracked cylinder |

Good day, I recently bought a Honda Accord 2005 and after 3 weeks it started making noise from the engine. I was planning to take it to mechanic the following day but while driving this Sunday, it stopped on a highway. I tried to start it but the battery couldn't. So I borrowed a battery to start it. After starting it, the noise this time became worse and I managed it to a mechanic workshop. On reaching there, he said the sound is from the engine and he had to wait for it to get cold before opening it. The following day he opened it, long story short he discovered the connecting rod is broken, and the crankshaft affected too. He is advising me to get a new engine which will cost 450k and I'm flat broke right now. What can I do? PS: It's my first car and I'm new to car stuff. |

olushola4me:Did you have an over heating issue before now?if yes, You have a flat head gasket. Or a cracked cylinder. You need a good mechanic to help you and replace the gasket and inspect the top cylinder and block engine to know if they are damage or not. 1 Like |

olushola4me: Valid question, considering you only mentioned radiator and gear dipstick. The radiator also is the transmission oil cooler, na there oil and water fit mix. Wetin remain na to confirm if the oil/water mixture dey your engine oil sump. 1 Like |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by olushola4me: 10:06am On Aug 07 |
frebor: Not at all. The mechanic is suggesting working on these hoses between the radiator and gear.

Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 12:32pm On Aug 07 |
olushola4me: Yes, most cars radiator have an inbuilt automatic transmission cooler inside them. If the automatic transmission cooler fails, it can cause coolant to mix with the transmission oil 1 Like |

Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by ezugegere(m): 7:41pm On Aug 08 |
Please I need help with my car. Car model: Rav4 2003. I started hearing this kind of tapping noise from the top engine. Mechanic said it's the Camshaft. Camshaft changed but the noise continues. The noise comes out when the engine gets hot. No noise when the engine is cold. After driving for about 30 - 45mins, the engine oil light starts blinking. Mechanic suggests we change the oil and oil filter. But I don't know whether that will solve the problems. Abeg, advice please? |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by Michael547(m): 8:05pm On Aug 08 |
ezugegere:Your oil pressure is low in the engine that is why the oil light is flashing. Change the oil and oil filter first.....if that does not solve the problem, let the mechanic check the oil pump and oil strainer inside the sump. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by nurey(m): 8:06pm On Aug 08 |
ezugegere: The oil pumps are giving way already reason the oil warning light is blinking which will be worse when on highway speed. Best thing is to tear the engine and check for sludge which may have blocked the oil pump and screen. but best thing is to manage the engine like that till it dies and be saving for a replacement engine |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by ezugegere(m): 8:30pm On Aug 08 |
nurey:Thank u. Can the oil pump be replaced or it is a definite death for the engine? |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by ezugegere(m): 8:32pm On Aug 08 |
Michael547: I plan to change the oil and filter this weekend. Thank you. I pray it resolves the problem because I don't have money for engine now |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by nurey(m): 8:44pm On Aug 08 |
ezugegere: it can be replaced, but effectiveness after is what cannot be guaranteed |

Good day. My corolla 2011 TPMS light came up after I changed all the tires, it blinks after start up for like 30 seconds and stays on. I've checked the tire pressure and all are same, I've done alignment and wheel balancing. Same issues. What do I do? I scanned and had a code p0037= heated O2 sensor heater circuit low voltage bank 1 sensor 2. Kindly advise. Thanks |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by Abbeyismo(m): 6:28am On Aug 09 |
mastig:One or two or three or four of the TPMS sensore is bad or missing you have to scan it with a TPMS scanner or a more bigger scanner that read tpms to know wish one is bad sir. You can reach more diagnosis. 1 Like |

olushola4me:For the bolded, it's not an overheating or an head gasket issue. Replace your radiator as your intercooler is bad. Do a drain and refill of your transmission and you should be good. You might have to do 2 or more drain and refill depending on the severity of the mix. 1 Like |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by jceesquare(m): 7:36am On Aug 09 |
BoyCoyToy:You can buy a new crankshaft, engine block, piston with rods and rings, oil pump and inspect your cylinder head if its safe for reuse to save cost. Should be cheaper than the 450k excluding labour and time. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by jceesquare(m): 7:39am On Aug 09 |
ezugegere:Looks like a worn out cam and crank bearing. While at it inspect if their journals are good. Inspect car for sludge. 1 Like |
