Buy radiator for your exact car.
Go for new one if you are not using thermostat. If you are using thermostat buy tokumbo.

Ohhhh new radiator can't work with thermostat?

Good day to all the Auto engineers in the house,
Pls I need a quick response on this one, my Honda civic 09 radiator leaks and I have experience overheating twice despite removing the radiator and adding gum to it. So I'm planing on getting a tokunbo radiator.
My question is, is it a must the radiator be Honda civic or can i buy other car brands that works on it?

Because of radiator you can cause more damage to ur engine if you continue like this sir
Please buy a new Honda Civic radiator and have rest of mind sir,instead of what ur technician is telling you that it will work 😳.

Omayie:
I have checked and no leakage.

I tried working on it by changing the oil and filter A year and Five months ago (1/5) but it didn’t work so I decided to used it that way.
Moreso I have used it this way for 1year and 5months with about 13k miles covered. And I feel the need to fix it.

Scan the car and drop the code or you can reach out to me with the scan results.

My 2014 Toyota Sienna gear delays only when I engage in D mode. Note this is noticeable when you have driven for long.
At cool engine it engages less than 2 secs
At hot engine it’s delays more time.


It’s drive smooth with no issues.
When engaged in R mode, there is absolutely no delay.

Please house kindly recommend a professional with records for this.

Seems the filter inside the gearbox is block or dirty
When last did you change ur transmission oil?
Oil shortage can cause it, check under the car if you will see any traces of oil leak or oil drop.

KOMBE:

Good day engineers in the house. I drive a 2005 Toyota camry. I've had no issues until my ABS module went bad and the "brake master" said i could bypass and it will still work fine. Since I've done this bypass, my brakes doesn't feel and work the same. Sometimes I feel like it wants to fail cos it get to soft and it scares me. This morning I noticed that when I step on my brakes, the car is reluctant to stop. Can someone recommend a very professional brake specialist for me in Lagos? I stay at Ikorodu and work in Ikeja. Please I need help.

It not good to buy pass tho
But sometimes if the by pass is done properly it works, you might be having issues with ur break master or break savo and not even the abs. Because sometimes if they bypass it properly it will work.
You can reach out to me my workshop is around Abule egba.

In fact what is the best approach , I really do not have the luxury of time waititng to buy and shift from US or Canada. I need an already made food ...lololol

There's plenty car stand in Lagos that you can buy from. Since you are going with ur mechanic there's nothing to fear about. And you can go to berga at Apappa there's plenty of Camry there you can pick from

united4men:
Good evening bosses

Vehicle - Honda Accord 2007
Code - P0506

I had a mechanic fix my kick starter after it stopped working 2 days ago. After fixing the kick starter, the car turns, rough idles & the RPM keeps dropping on the dashboard till it jerks and turns off. After cleaning throttle body and checking for air leaks here & there, the car was scanned

Code - P0506: idle air control system RPM lower than expected

When the air flow sensor is disconnected, the car will start and idle better but it won't turn back on while the engine is hot until it cools

What is the solution to this please?

Clean the throttle body and IAC Valve
Inspect for vacuum leaks
Repave the IAC Valve

Aspireahead:
I’m having an intermittent issue with my car and need help diagnosing it.

The car starts normally and drives fine at first, but after some time on the road, I suddenly lose acceleration. When I press the accelerator, the engine is still running and RPM stays low, but the car does not respond or pick up speed properly.

If I turn the car off and restart it, it goes back to normal and drives fine again for a while, before the same issue returns.

What type of car? Loss of power, have you scan the car?

Lmb73:
Hello bosses. I need an experienced, trustworthy auto mechanic for pre-purchase inspection of a Nigerian used Honda Accord 2009 in Ikorodu. Any recommendations will be appreciated.
Thanks.

It goes with a cost you can dm me sir

vegaz:
My Camry 2007 steering was making humming sound while idle or driving, so my mechanic suggested I get a new steering pump, which I got for 75k. This was over a month ago.

I noticed immediately that the steering was still stiff, but due to money restraints, I’m only now able to fix the steering rack.

The steering rack doesn’t leak oil, so my question is whether I should try repairing the rack or just replace with a brand new one?

He said the price for a new steering rack currently is around 150k.

Don't repair or buy tokunbo, just buy new one

Hmmmm (U151E) 13 pin gear box
The solenoid can be changed but it a 50/50,so it better to save up and get a replacement gear box.

Wandytoy1:
Can someone recommend a good mechanic that I can rely on to do fixes on cars I would be importing into Nigeria. They would vary from Japanese to German cars, so if you can recommend based on what each is good at, would be better.

Okay sir

cyif2003:
Isolo axis

Okay I'm at Abule egba if you can come I can check for you.
You need cylinder drop test
Check for vacuum leaks
Check for intake leaks
And maybe top gasket if you have had overheating issue before.

cyif2003:
My car was misfiring before. So I scanned all and error code signified I needed to change all coils which I have done. It stopped and has started again. Scanned it but no code.... Decided to change all plugs and service d nozzle. It was good but after 2 days it was back to misfiring again . I drive a Toyota Camry 2010 4 plug

Get another technician to diagnose the car for you.
Where is the location of the car?
