Good morning house. I want somebody to help me with this question. I just bought Honda 2010 last month on 6th of March, then on 7th I did servicing. Driving since then, my oil life is now showing 40 percent on the dashboard, hope that is normal within that time till now because I know before next week it must have reduced and due for servicing. Question is, is the car oil usage OK?

Secondly yesterday I noticed an oil on the oil pan underneath the car. Not like the oil is dripping on the floor but on the pan, please what could be the cause. I'm new to using a car. This car was my first.

Thanks for your response in anticipation.

Did you reset the oil life back to 100% after servicing?

Top of the day to my lovely honda family... please I have an issue with my 2006 honda civic, it has confused both my mechanic and rewire but i haven't allowed them to do anything about it so as not to trigger more problems.

My car slips everytime it wants to change from any gear, most especially when I put more pressure on it. It now drives like a manual car.

My rewire did some checks and we noticed that light is not supplying to one of the gear solenoids. (He said it's the brain box that supplies the light so the brainbox is faulty). Out of four sockets that connects to the solenoids, a particular one doesn't have light..

I'm confused if I'm to agree with him to get a new brain box..

Issues like this, you scan the car. It will help you narrow it down to the fault instead of doing guess-work.

Good evening House.
Can someone please recommend a "Good quality" oil filter for my Honda Odyssey 2001?

The ones I saw yesterday(Honda brand) in the market are sold for just 1k and I know it's not original so I didn't buy.

I need to service my car ASAP!

bro my car vibrate and exhaust shakes. And it sometimes stall. I have scanned with my mini scanner and it shows 3 cylinder misfire in a roll. C1,C2,C3 it's V6 and the inner cylinders. We check the plug they are ok. The coil are ok. I service the injector 3 weeks again.

One mechanic said he suspect blockage to the exhaust. Another mechanic said it's the fuel or gasket.

Honda recommends changing the engine oil and oil filter every 7,500 miles or six months, whichever comes first. Regular oil changes will help extend the life of your engine and ensure it runs smoothly. Tire Maintenance: Check your tire pressure regularly and make sure they are properly inflated. Rotate your tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles to ensure even wear and extend to www.billonline.pk/hesco-bill-calculator at the life of your tires.

Good evening bosses.

My Honda Accord (thanks to my chairmen here @kingreign, Nurey, Gazzuzz, and other mandem that helped me make the choice. Oga Gazzuz thread on what to check before you buy a car is heaven-sent! ) 2008 started this subtle vibration when it's in drive, and is idle, and this has increased over time. It started after I did general servicing on the legs (bearing, linkage, etc.. my God I spend money and I dey vex 😩😭), changed engine oil and filter, and other servicing which was recommended.

Abeg wetin fit cause am?

I couldn't know what to check if my life depended on it. Please what should I look for. Thank you for your prompt response. I appreciate you deeply

Doesn't vibrate when it's in neutral tho. Or in motion.

What could be my car problem?
I recently replaced my car brainbox but the key icon on the dashboard doesn't go off and car doesn't start but according to the guy who programmed the BRAINBOX, it's perfectly programmed but he's confused why the key icon on the dashboard keeps flashing.


We scanned it and got code p0606.
Car is Honda civic 2009

The code points at Power control module PCM but also did the programmer program the key to the car? As you have changed brainbox I am just guessing he should have also added the key to enable the vehicle start.

If the key is chiped and not added no way that car will start.

yes. He did

If you are sure and he is certain form probing the brainbox the key was seen, then time to work on the PCM because if the brainbox was faulty it won't respond to a scanner

Is 2013 Honda Accord a good buy? Please I need feedback both on the 4-cylinder version and the Exl V6.

Based on my budget, I intend getting a clean Naija used.

Okay bro, but there is no Mobil Fuel station around me.
I went to the Spare parts market here and saw one for 14k, but how do I know it's the Original?

Never buy oil from any spare parts market. They sell fake oil that will knock your engine.

Good day Honda users. I'm using a 2008 Honda Accord for almost 2 years now and the car is burning oil despite using the recommended oil weight which is 5w-20. My question is this. Is there anyone here using the same car and having the same problem that has been able to solve this problem,if yes,then how? My other question is can I keep using the car like that and changing the oil at 3000miles when the maintenance light usually comes up?
