InfinityEstates:
Abeg Bosses in the house, help my situation. So I was at a traffic light today on my way to pick up a rider. Car (Corolla) suddenly started jerking and it went off. I thought it was a joke. Started it and it jerked again but this time, the car was just vibrating acting like it was about going off if I didn't accelerate. I quickly went to the mechanic. He said he suspected the plug. I changed the four plugs. Bought injector cleaner (or something). But the issue still persists. I noticed that the RPM is now below 1000 when idling on DRIVE. Please has anyone experienced anything like this?? How did you fix it??

Boss that is your fuel pump, jejely replace it and make sure you service the injector body and throttle body. B-AUTOMOBILE

Good morning lovely family. I need heads up on how to go about the car I'm driving (corolla 03), The ride seems to be in perfect conditions until lately that I got to know that the reverse does not pick at all or sluggishly does after a long drive. What could be the problem and how can it be fixed. Please I need your humble advise on what to do before it's condition deteriorates.



Boss if it's automatic then you can just check the gear oil and gear oil filter first before any further conclusion

Good morning to the bosses in the house. I noticed my car break was not functioning properly. Whenever I applied break, it will not stop quickly and I'll feel it on my leg like an iron is touching d ground. My Mech checked it and discover d ABS is bad. We unplugged d ABS and d car worked fine.he told me getting ABS will cost 35k but he can run it to become manual for 10k. I decided to go for d manual running which is lesser (with d hope of fixing d ABS back when I have money)
I just want to know if running it manually will not have any effect on d break system and if there is any need to rerun it back to ABS in future?
Thanks for ur input as await them




Boss pls don't allow road side mechanic reduce you intelligence to minimal. Don't run anything manual. There is a reason abs was attached to the car in the first place. Beat thing t most disconnect and ave it replaced as soon as possible... B-AUTOMOBILE wishes you all the beSt

I think drivers suppose to have a platform where they post any salvage/lemon car they've driven, this will help other drivers avoid such vehicle when call for inspection, or it will also help them to know what to look out for during inspection.

Salvage cars everywhere.

A car given to an innocent driver yesterday is already giving him serious issue today. I have to tow him from Jakande (ipara) to the owner's house at sangotedo.

On my way back this evening, I was behind him at Chisco traffic light, as the light turns green we moved, suddenly his car began to jerk till it finally stopped. When I noticed the phone on his dashboard I knew he's a fellow, I overtook him, reverse then park in front of him.

The rider started to hala, i explained to her that cars can go hairwire anytime. She ordered for another and left. (The driver that came to pick the lady didn't even care to come out at least to see what's wrong with a fellow driver that warrants his passenger to request for another vehicle, even when he saw our hazard lights on, he was relaxing inside his 4 inches Corolla)

When I asked the guy what the problem was he said that today is his first day with the said car. He has no idea of whatsoever. He suggested contacting those guys at Ipara to come and check, I told him to abort that idea, but rather let him call the owner. When he call the lady I noticed the change on his face, I asked him to come inside my car so that I can hear their conversation as well. The woman asked him if she's a mechanic, if he can't sort himself out let him sleep there with the car, she drop the call.

I was angry, I got her number and call her;
Me: Good evening ma
Madam: Na who be this?
Me: Madam Funke, your car and your driver are obstructing traffic, you may come to LCC office tomorrow to claim your car.
Madam: no sir please, let me talk to my driver please
Me: Please not with my phone ma, call him.

She call the driver, by this time I've already paired his phone with my car Bluetooth so the both of us can hear.

Driver: hello ma
Madam: hello ma too, olorubruku, otiyawere
Driver: excuse me ma
Madam: so you called LASTMA to come and tow me car away, ehn? Ee no go better for you, all of you are the same
Driver: madam I don't like the way you're talking, I didn't call any LASTMA, the car breakdown at the traffic light, they help me to push it, they overhead your response when I called you, that gets them upset.
Madam: my response kill all of you dia
Driver: madam what's the way out? Are you going to call your mechanic?
Madam: young man please can you bring my car? I don't blame you, that's how the previous driver destroyed my engine, now you're planning to destroy this new engine I put at Ladipo? Please return my car, I will call Ladipo tomorrow.
Driver: please ma, how do I return this car now when it's not even starting again?
Madam: anyhow you want to do, if you like push it but I need my car here, tonight.
Driver: but ma, I (she interrupted him with a question)
Madam: how much dey your hand?
Driver: 3500
Madam: since morning? 3500? Ah, wetin I no go see for Lagos? Who sent me to do Uber business?
Driver: have you forgotten that you asked me to do alignment and balancing today, and remember there was no fuel when I pick the car, I've spent more than 10k today
Madam: look for someone that can tow you for 5k, when you get here I will pay the balance.
Driver: okay ma, but no one will collect such amount by this time plus the distance, let estimate 10k, because of traffic
Madam: 10k? Are you towing the car to hell?
Driver: I'm at Jakande, it's far
Madam: and so? Is Jakande at sango? Is Jakande at ibafo? Is Jakande at seme? Oga please bring back my car.
Driver: let me look for someone that can tow me
Madam: whatever, I'm waiting.

That's how I tow him to united estate, the basket mouth woman came out and was ranting

Madam: where the towing van?
Driver: I didn't see any so I asked someone to tow me
Madam: how much? This one isn't a towing van, it'll be cheaper
Driver: her said 15, I didn't have a choice because LCC have already positioned their van to tow the car
Madam: oga, na 7k dey my hand, he will balance you, thank you
Driver: but I told you how much I have on me?
Madam: and I told you how much I can afford, please can I have my car key?

He drop the key and we left her house, when we get to the road he gave me some money (I don't know the amount since I didn't collect), I rejected it, I told him to forget. I told him that I wanted to make sure he get some bucks from the woman, in order to recover his expenses. The guy was so excited going home with 10k

I've advice him to run away from that car and the madam, they don't worth it

Please drivers always try to be your brother's keeper, it might happen to you tomorrow. Even when I have a rider, I do slow down to ask what's the matter.




God bless your hustle bro... I remember when battery dey fk me up then for lekki most driver go stop help jump start... God bless us all. With good heart

Xtrachidi:
Dear Buckybish, thanks a million times for that direction.

Yes, the car MISFIRES more especially on a hot sunny day after covering some distances. There is no smooth idling apart from the morning when everywhere is cold.
Please, you can add more suggestions based on the above but meanwhile, I am on my way to implement your previous advice.

But wait, is it Mechanic or Electrician that has the arsenal to check and/or change the plug coils. I mean, whom do I consult? A Mechanic or an Electrician.

Thank you once again!
Thanks!




A mechanic is good to work on it but personally as a technician I am I can work on it if you reside at IB

Best wishes to you.
Humbly standing on the existing protocol, I wish to seek solution for my 1998 Acura Legend V6.

Please, my Honda Acura Legend Car is recently giving me a challenge such that the odometer will come to zero and quench immediately I put the gear.

When the car starts, the odometer will be at the normal level or revolution but immediately I apply the gear, it will go down completely and off the engine. If I manage to move the car, the engine suddenly goes off immediately I apply the brake to reduce the acceleration completely especially on a hold up or a pot hole. Their is no slow movement as such that my legs must be on throttle pedals.

A mechanic suggested for me to change the six plugs with platinum NGK which I did but that could not remedy the situation.

Please, what exactly should I do as I am in need of an exact solution to avoid changing whole lots of parts without solution.
Please, I need your help!
Please, help!





Bro that is probably your throttle body, since you have changed the plugs and one more thing to check is if your car misfire, which can also be the coil on plugs... So when you rectify this bro you should be good
