drmuchin:
sir the car is automatic gear
how do I differentiate from 4 speed/ 5 speed?
also I used Oando ATF DEXTRON III instead of the synthetic VW ATF?
will this be disastrous in the long run?

1. Share your car VIN.

2. Stick to VW transmission fluid specifications.

I need help with this too. Please what does send item abroad (EID received) mean?

Send item abroad (EDI-received): EDI stands for "Electric Data Interchange", it means that your parcel has been sent out, and the tracking info has been synchronized to the tracking system of the destination carrier.

Car Talk › Re: My 2004 Toyota Camry V6 Drags At High Temperature. by aieromon(m): 9:54pm On Mar 11, 2021

Magic1:
I’ll keep it simple and short. My car drags mostly in the afternoons whereas it runs smoothly in the mornings and evenings.
Once afternoon comes, smooth ride and proper transmission becomes a big problem. Sometimes when this happens during rides, I quickly put off the engine, start the car again almost immediately and I have noticed it runs normal but for a short while before the usual drag kicks in again.
I have also noticed it causes some mild overheating whereas there’s no trace of water leaks or drops.

Just yesterday, I changed gearbox oil filter and fresh Oando ATF but the issue is still there.

Please share your experience and possible solution. My mechanic is out of idea and I wouldn’t want him to gamble.

Mods, please help move to front page.

Believe me, you don't want this on front page. Your transmission has a high risk of failure if you do not drain and revert to Type T-IV ATF.

Sorry for the sad experience. You need a highly competent auto electrician to resolve the issue. Have you checked the VIN history of the vehicle?

Which other oil can you recommend, I heard Mobil is the best. That's why I stick to it

If this is the oil you use, stick to it for now and buy only from Mobil filling stations.

Corolla 2005

If no signs of leakage or smoke, worn out piston rings and/or valve seals could be the culprit.

Switch to a thicker oil (if you haven't done so already) and reduce oil change intervals to 2-3 months.

Prepare for an engine rebuild/replacement.

Gaggii:
Good day all,

I bought my corrola last year.

After sometime, I realized that the oil will gauge after servicing. But after some months the oil will start going down.

Before now, the oil only changes when due for servicing, but doesn't not reduce.

My mechanic has checked everywhere for leakage but none.

Please what could be the cause.

What model? Some Toyota engines are prone to oil burn.

radautoworks:
Thank you so much for the feedback. I'm a big believer in transparency. The 7,500 will be removed when the repair is done. No worries.

This is an affordable cost judging by the type of services you render and compared with some of the other automobile diagnostic centres.

Well done

Car Talk › Re: Nissan Altima MAF Sensor by aieromon(m): 2:51pm On Mar 02, 2021

prosper427:
I have a 2003 Nissan Altima that has fault code P0113 Intake air temperature sensor high input. The car now looses pulling power and also hesitate during acceleration. When I checked the MAF sensor I saw 4 pins but my Nissan has 5 wires to the MAF sensor a Rewire change the original sensor that came with the car to Nissan Almera 4 pins after trying hundreds of different sensors with 5 pins here in Ibadan. I suspect those sensors are not for Nissan altima I don't understand why they keep saying its difficult to get the right maf to work except keep trying sensors. My question is does anyone know where I can buy the right sensor for my Altima? thanks.

Your ride shares the same MAF with a Nissan Sentra.

Car Talk › Re: Does Car Diagnostic Kit Detect Mechanical Faults ? by aieromon(m): 5:06pm On Feb 25, 2021

lantres000:
My question now is that if a car has a flat top gasket or any other related mechanical issue like bad shaft can it be detected by diagnostic kit?

Sorry for my long epistle please help me so that this man does not knock my engine.

1. The diagnostic scanner will not detect a flat top gasket or a bad shaft.

2. You better change that mechanic before you end up buying a new engine due to overheating. A lot of people have lost their transmission to shaft replacement so make sure you engage a competent mechanic for repair work.

Thanks for all those who make inputs on this thread, I've learned a lot.
I just purchased a Nissan Pathfinder 2014, it was an auction with a slight dent on the left fender.
And d vehicle report only showed that accident.
However when it came, it started well but when d gear is engaged it didn't move, when we called a mechanic to check we realised there was no transmission fluid at all, the bolt underneath had fallen off. I bought the Nissan Transmission fluid NS3, and poured it in and tried and the vehicle drove well with very smooth Transmission without any noticeable jerks or leakages.
So when we took the vehicle to the workshop for a comprehensive check. We scanned and the report attached was generated.
I know Nissan and CVT issues have been coming up a little too often. I'm concerned, pls can experts here help interpret the report and help with remedies for forestall future occurrence

Delete codes and observe the transmission for symptoms of CVT failure. Hopefully, the CVT oil refill should take care of the P17F1 and P2813 which are the major error codes. Confirm that the oil is gauged as specified in the factory service manual.

If the car has an immobiliser, it will need to be programmed to the new ECU before the car can start.
