Hello house,
1. please which engine oil can u recommend for Honda pilot 03, used to use Mobile Xhp... But, it's become scarce and too many fake out there ... Is Hardex gold 5w-30 ok.. my mechanic recommends it
2. What could be the cause of VTM4 and VSC light showing on the dash board

The Mobil xhp that you usually use is it the one with blue cap? I guess hardex will be okay to use if you stick to your regular service pattern and regularly check your oil level in case of leaks or burning

Those vtm and vsc lights may be related to your suspension but scan to pinpoint the issue

Good evening All, please I need a good Honda mechanic around Ogba/Ojodu axis.
I am having issues with my gear and I was told to get a replacement.
But I was also warned about getting a refurbished one.Please if I can get a recommendation for a good mechanic,I will really appreciate

Honda Accord v6
Who have an experience of the car. I want to know the pros and cons

Honda Accord v6
Who have an experience of the car. I want to know the pros and cons

Amazing vehicle, very quick very reliable so long as it's maintained and my God it's super silent. Mine sounds like an electric vehicle from inside the cabin and Fuel consumption is very ok so long as all catalytic converters and o2 sensors are functioning properly. The only con that bothers me personally is that it uses timing belt. Maybe because it's my first timing belt car but then again all honda v6 uses timing belt. The engine is an interference engine meaning that if your timing belt snaps the piston will hit the valve and the valve will bend. But hey like everything else timing belts have change intervals and they last as long as 5 to 7 years or 70k miles so long as you get the original. I enjoy mine and my preventive measure is for my mechanic to inspect my timing belt every 4 months

I personally dislike hardex oil but I guess it works for others . I'd rather go for coastal oil to be honest .

Vtm4 is referring to your axle . It could be bad or the fluid inside is low, empty or requires replacement. You need to get your mechanic to find out which. When my CRV had that light on, I found my self replacing the axle cos I never knew it uses fluid . Wasn't cheap.

Please do you have any idea of power steering cost for 08 accord , V4.
Mine has been making a lot of noise and was advised to change instead of repair

New pump is N45,000, tokunbo is N25,000

Oil consumption can happen even to 4 cylinder engines same as misfire and transmission issues. Just ensure you are getting a v6 from year 06 upward and use only honda dw1 genuine fluid from reliable sources. Avoid buying an abused vehicle.

Good day all and happy New year. My 98 crv after driving for about 30mins, and I off the engine, the reservoir container boils, an I'll be hearing hissing sound. When everything cools down, water in the radiator will reduce, and the reservoir will be empty.
I did a small test this morning. I left the radiotor open and started the engine, after about 5-10 minutes I saw bubbles like foam. Pls what is the meaning?

I decided to start from easier fix.
I changed the radiator cap and everything seems normal now. I've driven the car in 20mins hold up, under hot sun, no hissing no temperature rise.

The old cap..

Congrats also check if the reservoir cover and the hose connection is good. Your radiator cover isn't looking so clean so I'm wondering how the inside may be. If it's having a clay colour I suggest flushing it after your test is done

Hardex is good oil. But you need to share with us your vehicle millage and The API rating of that hardex. We need this to know it's suitability for your car

That's what it looks like.. Will snap from my car tomorrow.



They are very bright and well focused on the road.

Updated : looks on the car.

I tap from your blessings ooo. Very beautiful ride. Make God open way for me too make I buy this beat too.

So long as it's tokunbo you can use any. Yes 5w20 is recommended but 5w30 won't hurt it either. However please don't use substandard fluids. Use popular name brands with good API and dexos rating. Oils like mobile, liqui moly, Pennzoil, super tech, valvoline are very nice . Ensure you get it from a reliable source in order to avoid stories

Coolant is recommended get the OEM from luvinhubby.

If your routes aren't filled with bad roads and you vont carry load you can leave ity car is as high as yours However you can get bigger tyres if you Wana increase your clearance.

Id say you should change your transmission fluid every 2 years of you drive very frequently I. Order to keep it clean and lubricated. High temperature causes transmission fluids to oxidize quickly. The more it oxidizes the quicker it deteriorates

Really appreciate this detailed guide.Praying for you to get yours too

Please help me.

After driving a while,I sense heat from under the steering down to the pedal area...

Car is Honda Accord DC 2007.

What can be done please?

I think that should be from the bottom ac vent. Check if ur ac temperature control is turned to the heater side.

Thanks for your response sir.

Do you mean turned to the red side?

Yes. Try turning to the blue side and see if there's a difference

Please i want to change my Honda civic 2007 tyres to bigger size since the car is too down. I've even lifted it a little but i can't still climb bomb or drive in a rough road in peace. Car is still down. Please what size of tyre would you recommend for me.

Current size is 205/55/16R Thanks in anticipation
