Car 2005 BMW 318
Engine E46 4 plug

Blackbishop Help me;

After changing the turtle Atuator the EML light gone and my car still do not accelerate above 30mph.

The car was scanned with lunch device and no code came up.

The car starts at one kick and idles very well. It also drives fine if you do not go above 20mph

Am suspecting the ECU is bad.

Boss good day first of all nothing like turtle, it is Throttle body. And again did you change the whole Throttle body or just the actuator on it?

Also vehicle speed sensor can be the culprit too.

Did you check the oil level or just check the spark plugs if they are soak in oil

Well-done bro for the good work.
Pls I have an issure with a car I bought recently volkswagen touran 2.0 fsi .
The problem of the car was it was over gouged with oil after which it stated smoking.
According to the owner ,he said they have refused the oil to the normally gauge , and was told the smoke will reduce.
But it's one week now and the smoke it still there.
I manage to travel with the car which I end up buying close to 6 liters of engine oil.
And I also noticed the plugs don't fire well and the number two plugs socks oil but the rest plugs are just black but not socked like the number two plug.
There is also a check engine light on it.
The engine also vibrates due to this condition.
I need advice on what to do cos I don't want any bad mechanic to damage the already sick engine.
First what is the color of the smoke?
Two - Plug getting soak that will have to be Top engine seal leaking oil into the plug chamber.
And your engine sucking oil at that rate gives me the impression of a crack engine block.

In conclusion you are buying another engine bro

Today I will be discussing more about those that are using Mobile XHP oil 20W50.

I will not condemn the oil but be careful what you put in your engine, now a car was brought down with a wierd noise coming from the engine. A Toyota Camry 2007, at first running a scan was not the best cause of action so we drove round and driving back to the workshop I noticed the Engine oil light blinking, which was a red flag.

Getting to the workshop, I removed the oil cover that was on the engine to check the pressure of the oil pump. It was relatively low and couple with the sound. I decided to drain the engine oil and open up the sump.
Removing the sump I saw cake - I mean the engine oil has caked inside the sump blocking the filter and oil pump. I removed the cake and try brushing the rest with a petrol and I decided to replace the filter with a new one.

Further investigation from the owner he said he has been servicing the car with the Mobile XHP since he bought the car and serviced the car every 3 months.

On conclusion I told him anytime he wants to service the car he should at least drive round for an hour plus then they drain the oil when it's still hot so some of the cake will come out. By that some cake will dissolve temporarily due to the hot engine oil.


Note: Always check the cover of the Mobile XHP that it was sealed and the cover is blue and not black

Why do you always have this mindset of inferiority and insecurity? The truth is weather you like it or not people will hate you and it wont stop those that desire to like you from liking you.

Do what makes you feel glad and okay and forget about how people feel but surely a day will come somebody will see value in what ever you do.
If I am having inferiority complex I wont post anything here. From what I wrote there hiw many driver will drop 45k for catalyst Converter? But still I still post here not post link to my website for you read it on my website. Baba your view about me is yours alone. I only pointed out what madam said. You and I know say Uber drivers are hustler like me so no dey deceive ya sef say una go pay for such repairs.

Toyota Camry 2007 drags when on speed

A Camry 2007 was brought in with a complain of dragging when in top speed. After driving a bit with the car it was as if the engine was working under alot of pressure, unable to breathe fine.

The car owner ran a scan and came up with some codes; P0128 and P0420. The P0128 was for coolant thermostat Malfunction.

P0420 was for Catalyst Converter below threshold. On further diagnosis we discovered the catalyst Converter was never in the car just an empty exhaust. Removing the whole exhaust reveals more damage done by probably a mechanic previously. The other hollow after the Post-CAT was filled wires (picture below).

After fixing the catalyst and removing the wires also servicing the transmission. The vehicle was back to full performance.

When I posted 2004 corolla for 2.4 and dem go call dey talk as if na bitcoin I use carry am enter naija. The White Camry set no be bans.

See oga feli talk is cheap businessmen don't argue or talk too much. You have money on table come and I will analyse all you need to know. But people calling 12 midnight to ask about engine oil is crazy.
