nitt: make - Honda model - accord year - 2005 engine - 4cylinder petrol
hi, glad to have you back cardoctor.
issue: my car burns oil (like half a litre after a week's drove to and from work. A drive of about 20km to and fro).
Now I'm thinking of ringing the engine soon once I'm able to save up.
I want to ask if I should start using the specified 5w30 synthetic oil by Honda, or, continue the 20w50 I have been using for about 10years I have been with the car??.
Thanks. Bear in mind that a 2005 car is now obviously 15 years old. That's approximately an average of 150k miles. Possible more for an engine already indicating weakness at the seals. Ringing it wouldn't be a bad idea in resolving the high oil consumption but make sure you have a competent technician near you to handle it. If he doesn't get it right, the problem may persist with even more consequences and more expenses. Replace the engine if u can afford to. You will be a happier man. Even with a replacement engine, use a 20w/50. |

kennyldelsu: make - honda model - civic, year - 2008 transmission - automatic cylinda - 4plug petrol
my car consumed fuel more than normal, and accelerate sluggishly. after scanning, it was reveal that the 02 sensor is bad. I did change it, and the check engin sign disappear. few min letter, the sign comes up again and I went to scan... code reveal is - P2413. report is EGR issue. what to know the effect of this pls. and what to do.
also, my AC cools well when in motion but on traffic, it stops cooling. those are the 2 issues I need help with. thank you in anticipation First of all have the egr valve cleaned by a good mechanic. Also service the injector nozzles. On the a/c issue, u may have to replace the refrigerant. Make sure ur ac guys uses original refrigerant (gas). Ac issues are a bit delicate and difficult to proffer solutions to online. It's usually best to have your ac technician knowing what's best for ur situation and doing it. |

babatee1985: Nissan (Altima 2000 modeI) Automatic, petrol engine, 4 cylinder.
I drive a Nissan Altima 2000 model, there is one day that I travelled to sango otta in ogun state and I entered a very deep flood coz rain fell so heavily that day. After getting out of the flood, I noticed the car engine started revving high once I accelerate slowly but will do normal when I'm speeding. When I got to my house, I took it to my mechanic and he said it is gear issue. I was shocked coz the gear was working perfectly well until I entered the flood. I took it to a guy who is a gear expert and after test driving, he said the gear is still okay coz it selects well aside the high revving issue. He told me that the only thing that can cause the issue is that the transmission oil filter must have been clogged after entering the flood. He now said he will have to wash the oil filter to remove clog from it and I will have to buy another transmission oil to service the gear. He said I will need 8 litres of the oil(4 litres x2). This issue still persists after servicing of the gear with new transmission oil. What else could cause this please? The issue is obviously not the gearbox. It's definitely an engine issue. Have u carried out a scan on the car? For a 2000 car, ignition coils and leads may be exposed to water contact. Have your mechanic clean the ignition electrical connections and the plugs as well. |

Readonee35L: 2015 Camry Xse 2.5Cyl 2ar-fe 6-speed U760e transmission 46k original miles.
Issue. Vehicle Jerks hard when put in reverse only, Transmission shifts perfectly and works okay. Scan Result : P2716 Maybe, maybe not. On the U760 series tranny's, these codes easily pop up but not necessarily related to the issue. Replacing the valve body or changing the solenoid may not necessarily rectify the issue. The mileage u indicated may be a bit dubious but primarily, issues like this usually result from internal wear and tear due to higher mileage or wrong type of oil Use. A good Toyota gearbox technician could help pinpoint the issue. If you are in Abuja, contact me. |

Daviestunech: The passenger front side brake hose not supplying oil to the caliper.... but others is work. Wat can I do
Secondly...my ac not working properly... not bring out cold air..... just light air coming out....
Camry 03 v 6 For the brake issue, simple. Just replace the hose. It's blocked. It does happen sometimes. Secondly, the a/c issue requires a professional physical check. |

Stanleyallen17: A relative of mine have a 2007 Toyota Camry. He complains that the a/c only cools the car at night but not able to cool during the day. No work have been done the a/c side before now. The quality of the a/c gas could be the issue as there are so many cheap low quality a/c gas in the market now and many of these charlatan a/c technicians don't really know the difference and don't care either. I will advice you replace the gas first with a better quality one and done by a more professional a//c guy. |

IkpuMmadu: Crank sensor
A crank sensor is an electronic device used in an internal combustion engine, both petrol and diesel, to monitor the position or rotational speed of the crankshaft. This information is used by engine management systems to control the fuel injection or the ignition system timing and other engine parameters.
Your engine is good ... Change crank sensor abeg That's the problem. Crankshafts sensor or Camshaft sensors. One of them may be faulty especially the Crank sensor but do a scan first. |
