And I drove the car with AC blasting. But the engine light didn't appear. I don't know if it will appear again or how soon it will appear?

guy it's not a must to comment. You could just waker pass. Nairaland is free so you shouldn't open my thread since you have nothing to say.

I bought a scanner but I couldn't used it. There was cover that cover the ODB2 port and I couldn't open it. So I just first leave it like that. I ask my mechanic of the engine light that is constantly showing he said that's how it should be. If the engine doesn't show the car will not move. He said if the engine light is blinking that when there is problem.

I have been using the car like that but the way its consuming fuel. I had to vex and find way to remove the cover.

I scanned the car and found a problem.

Cylinder 1, 3 & 4 misfire.

I showed it to my mechanic and told him that I did research that the engine light is not surpose to show constant.

He said on Tuesday we will fix it. He said it's likely the Plug or nosole. How do I know it's the plug. Can fuel pump cause it? Also what could make 3 cylinders to misfire?

I use a V6 and 3 cylinder from it is misfiring. Is this enough reason to consume fuel? If I fix it will there be much improvement?

Toyota is reliable. 
We have too many Toyotas on the road. 
It's like 100 Toyotas to two other brands on the road.The taste for Toyota is just too much.
You can get other brands if you want to look different. 


Despite the huge number of Toyotas on the road, you barely see them breakdown on the road. 
If it's a bad brand, we should see them breakdown regularly on our roads. 

As for the smoking engine, age and abuse could be factors.
I would have considered Honda, but the regular leg pull is a major issue with their sedan.I am not ready to be a sound engineer yet.

Honda's resale value is also terrible; it's a bad investment. 

I have been using my Toyota for several years now, and I still enjoy it. 
engine is very silent.
Every time I feel like upgrading, I always ask myself if I will ever get something as reliable as this.

I remember some time ago when I helped my neighbor sell a smoking Toyota with much rust.
The way people rush the car is unbelievable. One even offered to pay more just to buy it from the other guy. I doubt if this will be possible with another brand.

it's the high and bagwons we are talking about. It's good that for for honda lovers to that the price doesn't go up like Toyota.

Look at for Instance our Naira during the cashless economy people withdrawing 10k with 4k. It's because of demand that why anyone will reach a rusty car.

Like here is the east. People who don't know anything about car will tell you buy toyota. Or when you buy honda they will tell you why you didn't buy toyota. This are people who don't even know where the brake or acceleration is in a car. Just because of people are using it. It crate an atmosphere that other brands are not good. Even when you are riding Benz they will tell you Toyota is better.

Almost of the cars that smoke on the road are Toyota from almighty Corolla to Camry and the rest. Metrix, puntic Vibe to Highlander. I'm yet to see honda smoking.

My approach to mechanic workshop all the cars there are Toyota from gearbox problem to engine failure. From ringing to change of engine.

The bag wagon of toyata make them feel pride and think Honda is shit.

AirbagsNg:


30k

I went to market yesterday they said 30k last with FOB and 15k without the FOB.

I was like why. They say it's uses sensor.

If it uses sensors how come it worked when the FOB battery dead? As at the time the battery dead complete I used it like that before I changed the battery.

So I need to clear this.

felix55:

Blank or wit remote

Cost of both so one can decide.

felix55:

What type of car ?

2007 honda accord

When we talk about making money with car the first thing that come to our mind is cab/taxi.

I was looking at online business. buyer and selling while the car will be the movement to meet customer or contact.

The only problem now is online business doesn't strive in my location.

What other things can one do with a car.

felix55:
Depend on d car but u can buy & cut ..ship to Nigeria.. S more cheaper.
Programming.. It depends on d car also..mention d car 4 easy info.

Locksmith charge high @ #30k for corolla but s easy to do by ur self...
Mention d car..

is like I will forget the programming only do cutting. Any idea?

Conner44:


Yes there are a total of 6.

3 for the engine and 3 for the gearbox.

the problem is my mechanic want me to change all. It's costly. He was not even talking of the gearbox mout but the engine mount which is 3.

Is it possible for him to check the bad one from a V6 engine where everywhere is full.

nurey:


I bought mine in Benin Uselu Abu nah uwelu part market but I have since left benin now in another state.

I used an 06 for 7years and didn't have on ball joint pull, what I do is to have it checked when I hear any sound coming from the front legs, I always buy tokunbo not new shafts anytime I need them replaced.

Your vehicle is V6 different from i4 I would say talk with hondajosh if you need new parts he is tested and trusted and will waybill from lagos, if nah tokunbo ask gazzuzz if he can help.

As at when you change your bolt joints did it last for more or less than a year.

I am not formalier with the sound so to just avoid it is to make a accurate circulation as to maintainance for leg change routine same as oil change.

Also abeg is it advisable to change all the mout or just find the bad one? There is a part seller in jiji I called he said I should find the bad one and change that one. Also since the tokunbo is better I would have like the fact you bought it that price if I can get it for that price.

nurey:


That is the exact price for tokunbo, though the bigger the more expensive. Brand new is 12 to 15k. Go for tokunbo if you don't trust your mechanic, let him loosen the seat and you enter market yourself but I bought tokunbo engine seat december 7k each one front one back for K24A honda engine

i told him to check the bad one. he said i should all. back and front new one.

i dont just want a back and font. i wanted to order online from jiji but it seems they are new. please can you help me buy tonkubo from where you bought yours? please you can waybill them for me.

when i tried reverse today the front tyre climbs the road pavement it was a big bang. Since then the sound worst oh now. Also the guy I bought the car from said I should change the bolts joint yearly as maintainance that I will never experienced bolt joints problem.

But my mechanic said 1 year is too much as preventive measures. Is 1year bolt joints maintainance too far?

Conner44:


Yes that’s the correct prices for new front and rear engine mounts. It’s the side and gearbox mounts that are cheaper because they are smaller.

how many in total. Because when I check jiji I saw ads for 6.

Mind you my car is V6.

The noise is getting annoying.

Conner44:
What vehicle is this again?

2007 Honda DC

baconline:
He should have impounded your vehicle, u are not authorized to drive without a certified driver by your side

I I'm not a learner like that oh. Is that to make other road users know I'm still up coming. So I don't need anyone by my side.

CXLVII:
What are you pointing out?

A policeman stopped you, checked your papers and found them complete and accurate, and allowed you to continue your journey.

Please specify what happened?

assuming i dont have a learner permit. he would have roger me and put me for work.

They already saw my learner sign. As I packed one side and I roll down my glass the AC breeze meet the officer.

He said "are you a learner?'
I answered "yes I'm a learner?"

For him mind he done cash bushmeat.

He replied "Let me see your learner Permit"

I just scattered my papers from where I keep them and handed it over to him. He goes through it and couldn't even pronounce my name.

He never thought I would have a learner permit.

He replied "you can go."
He didn't bother to check other documents.

Then I zoomed off.

How much is engine mount currently?

My mechanic put a call to the market the seller said the front 9k back 7k now.

This seem to be heavy amount. As I need to change the two front tyre side mirror.

Motor na heavy Borden imagine money just going to fix this and that.

The engine mount and tyre seems to be important for now. Then change engine oil and gear oil. Only nor be small thing.

I collected 30,500 for a 3-months tenue and I paid 39k plus in all. Do your calculations and see that the interest rate is 13%x6 months. Thank you

maybe I didn't check well or probably didn't understand. But I wanted to return the money's. I don't mind paying 13.5 for one month. I don't want the loan again. I have been trying to get through to them via WhatsApp and the in all contact but still not responses. I will just end up not paying them a dem if they they I will pay 96%. It will never work. Maybe I will just install the app.

Is this still available?

luluosas:
The interest is calculated upfront, and it is not 96%. I do use them too.

how? Don't you see the amount I needs to repay there? In total it's 69k

I’m just scared i might misplaced this guy.

How much it would cost to reprogram fob key?

SilentVboy:
Thank you bro for this comment.

Don't mind the op. He is a big liar. Carbon will always show how much one will pay back. Thereafter the person will accept it or decline.
The op is looking for who will back him up.

I have been using Carbon right from when they were known as PAYLATER since 2017.

I saw 13.5% and options to pay 6 months. I never saw 96%. It was in the afternoon I was in the market Running around and needed money urgently. I never had the time to go through it like that. It was when I go home to check I saw 96%. I have contacted them but yet to reply me. I am ready to refund the money but no option now. I don't need the money again. And don't mind paying 13.5 for a month only.

luluosas:
Don't embarrassed yourself please. You took a six months tenure and you are here ranting

MrFollowFollow:


The interest on the loan is 13.5% each month as stated and I will show you how your monthly installment was computed

For 6 months it will come to a total of N38,500 x 13.5% x 6months = 31,185

Total principal (38,500) + Total interest (31,185) = 69,685

Monthly installment =69,685 divided by 6 = N11,614



For your information there is no bank, loan app or money lender in Nigeria that will give you such a risky loan then charge you interest of just 13.5% for 6 months!

Can you yourself tie down N38,500 for 6 months for interest of just 13.5% which equates to just N5,197.50 when you know fully well that inflation rate in Nigeria is above 15%?

it was not clear to me. All the loans I collected earlier some year ago want not outrageous like this. And sometimes and I end up paying up the money either at once or twice. I don't need to wait for all that month. They would have stated the total amount I needed to pay. Check it now. Loan I would have paid even before 1 or 2 months. I wrote to them no response. I might end up paying only the actual loan amount with the right interest. Not the 86%

Keegan:


Carbon and Branch were among the best some years back. I want you to check again and be certain this is from them.

is been two year I use them during COVID 19. It was that former experience that made me go back to the app. They didn't even show how much in total I will pay back. I thought it was same as last time. But was disappointed

Make Una see loan when carbon give me. They didn't make it clear how much I need to pay in total. It was after I took the loan I saw the about they wanted me to pay. Now tell me how they expect me to pay this money. I find way to return the money but there was no way. And I was too tempted to spend the money now.

I might end up defaulting this loan oh.

Just imagine. See attached image below
