Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by alejandro72(m): 8:02pm On Jun 05, 2022
I need to be honest with myself , I’m not sure I dodged this…I’m hoping I did by the grace of God…
It’s a big headache for me…
I called the so called Gear expert and he said it will get back to normal , I should manage it for a while….
Sigh..

Please and please, offer a solution…


GAZZUZZ:


That's what happens when you run a transmission dry. As I said I hope you dodge this bullet

I’m still in need of a good LEXUS mechanic in ibadan …
Please
Car Talk / Re: Club-Lexus by alejandro72(m): 6:08pm On Jun 05, 2022
1. Toyota , I’ll check later for the full name
2. No, it did not enter water
3. No, I did not wash the engine
4. Top the engine oil, no
The gear oil, No I did not(well, I wasn’t there when he was fixing it)

5. The Cv joint, I think I did sometimes in February.
I’m not sure tbh

Dozieson:


What gear oil did you use for replacement?

Did your car enter water? Did you wash your engine? Or did you top the oil?

Did you replace cv cup/joint?

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by alejandro72(m): 5:56pm On Jun 05, 2022
Sir, the replacement is not in the picture…
It’s gradually getting back to normal ….

By the way, there’s a bigger problem
The reverse gear is not great when I’m reversing towards a hill or lemme say I wan climb something backward, decline. In fact it’s not good!!!! I would have to put it in park or drive then back to Reverse …. Omoh!
This is unusual

It’s normal when it’s on a flat surface or a slope….very normal
This is a big headache for me right now…

GAZZUZZ:


I hope you dodge the transmission replacement bullet, it's an expensive replacement.

For the idle speed, keep driving without removing the battery terminal, it will normalise
Car Talk / Re: Club-Lexus by alejandro72(m): 4:06pm On Jun 05, 2022
My Oga, I don pick the car, I wish I can get that type of scanner that could scan transmission issue...
I only have this pocket scanner OBD2 scanner(red)

By the way,
The transmission oil was replaced.

Car has been fixed, which I'm not currently impressed with the performance.
My observation...
(1) Immediately after I drove the car(engage in D), I noticed the car was sluggish... Struggling, not smart at all...

I went to the highway, this is my car and it is part of me... I noticed my car wasn't flying the way it normally does.... Lol abt the flying..... But you know as Lexus dey move na

(2) I went back to the town, and tried engaging the Gear R(reverse), as it was reversing I noticed, it stopped for 2seconds(yes 2), and the car revved high without moving, I immediately engaged the Gear (P) in Park changed it to R(reverse) it was fine....that actually gave me headache and I panic, for real man!
Did that (reverse)10times in a city drive of 1hr, and it was fine.....

(3). Another observation I noticed is car Jerks, no be frequently sha, I won't say repeatedly or continually but e sha dey dey do am...
.


About the sluggish, the steering is kinda hard to turn at some places, most particularly when the odometer is nearly at zero..
I may be wrong about this; having the car slow(that's what my mecho call it ) reduced will cause the car to struggle when you're about to start moving/driving...
I will attach a picture.

The second photo, I'm nearing 4 here and it feels like I'm moving from 1 to 2

Lastly, I will test the GEAR S(sport feature tomorrow )
I'll see if the car moves swiftly

Thank you



homeboy205:





Don’t panic, PLEASE SCAN


A junior brother of mine bought a tokunbo ES 350 lately. It happens that the car has no check engine light before purchases.(maybe they erased it)

But on usage he found out car rev HIGH before changing gears. Thank goodness the check engine light came on and after scanning, he found out it is a sensor in the gear itself. (Transmission temperature sensor or so.)

After fixing the sensor, his car came back to normal. I will attach picture of the sensor.


In your own case, you need to start from the minimal, before spending anything PLEAEE SCAN.

That way you are one step ahead.


DONT PANIC.

Try buying a pocket scanner…

You move from there

Stop trying to move the car.

You have no transmission oil.

Park it, or tow.

Inspect for leaks and top up transmission oil with sanitary equipment in the morning

Car Talk / Re: Club-Lexus by alejandro72(m): 1:01pm On Jun 05, 2022
No major work on the car recently. .

The Gear Oil was replaced sometime last year

Dozieson:


Did you do any work on the car recently? Did you top up the gear oil? Why sudden gear issues?

Thank you, Chief... I panic ooo...sigh.
I was even speeding at that moment.
Then I noticed say my car no dey move well with my foot on the gas, applying pressure, e no move well...

I have this pocket scanner, I scanned but nothing related with transmission...

I'm changing the Gear Oil as suggested by an expert here and my Gear mecho, I'm picking it up by evening.
I'm hoping and praying it gets back to normal...

I am in Ibadan and I just started driving Lexus,

It depends on the problem you are having with your Lexus. For me, I have a pocket scanning device which I use to scan for engine troubles and most time it’s always something I can fix myself.

But I have reliable boys at the back of the prison yard who help me with the legs…

I have been using them for years because any mechanic you took your car to in Ibadan is still coming to gate to buy the part. That is why I love the prison yard right beside the market
okay, thank you.

Good afternoon my ogas,
My gen set is unable to run my washing machine, if it manage to do that, the noise is extremely crazy! And the washing machine will trip off after some minutes.

Gen set is Lutian 3.5kva LT3990E key start
Washing machine is HISENSE Automatic 8kg Front loader.

How do I get over this? , I bought this solely for inverter Acs, pumping machine and washing machine..
It goes well with the Acs(gen mode and normal mode)
It goes well with the pumping machine (with crazy noise thou)
The washing machine is the problem now ⚠️ ..

How do I enable the gen-set to run the washing machine?


Please, kindly help

Yes... On Haier thermocool, Gen mode have three control for the compressor, you can choose, low Li, medium L2 or high L3... Even the Lowest L1 colds a normal size room very well at a very reduced power consumption.

Thank you, sir. Got it!
Family / Re: House Clearance Sales.. Come In Here!!!! by alejandro72(m): 12:37pm On May 20, 2020

Inverter AC was manufactured for low power consumption, 1.5hp inverter AC consumes 900w and will further reduce as the AC runs once the set temperature reaches, the power further reduces just to maintain that temperature... Conventional AC of 1.5 HP consumes about 1900w, each time the compressor starts, it's about double of that consumption and it keeps running at that 1900w. once the set temperature reaches, it cut off and start again thereby consuming so much power in a short time. Never use it for prepaid please.... Inverter AC never stops, rather it runs at a very reduces power of about 300w after sometime to continue maintaining that set temperature. And start up power is extremely low. Im using 3kva gen to power two units of 1hp haier thermocool inverter ACs at L1 mode.... Will recommend Haier thermocool inverter AC over LG.

Is the L1 mode the same as Gen mode?
Thanks.
