It’s a jungle out here. I had to go get a 2013 Corolla due to my cars high fuel consumption. Only to discover it uses V6 engine too. Spending more than 50k a week for fuel on both cars. I don park them, just had to cut my waka waka.
Modified. Those saying it’s a lie. I don’t know about cars. Someone told me it’s v6 hence its fuel consumption.

delete this thing. No Corolla uses V6.

erico2k2:
Hahaha I can't believe I wrote that. How embarrassing ahah

lol. It happens. Me I shock sef.

This vehicle has a remote start function.

geezyk:
I know, but it's still more fuel efficient than the Accord 08. Very fuel efficient sef.

a very big lie. Your accord had issues. A simple check on the mpg consumption of the 2 vehicles will tell otherwise.

owunabastard:
rx350 is still 3.5litre v6 engine

no mind am. I'm sure his accord instrument cluster was littered with Christmas light. A faulty Corolla may consume more than a gx470. That it's a Corolla doesn't mean it won't consume much petrol even when it's plagued with powertrain issues.

There is no horse here since the pound reached 1770 today. The horse ran away. Anyway, back to topic. The fact I'm trying to stress at is this, i nstead of countless journeys back and fort to mechanic, its better to just buy OME parts and I swear down people do cos you will end up spending more money buying cheap fakes.If one has anyone that lives abroad best to telle m to help buy OME parts. and oh yeah stop going to roadside mechanics, Cars are not cheap so be ready to pay to mention them or give up your car for good.I was buying used tyres for my car until it messed up my supension mudule cos each tyres werer diff sizes,I had to buy 4 brand new 22inch tyres from UK at cost of 200 per one.cost nearly 1300 buying and shipping, so my car tyres now cost nearly N2m, so my guy if you live i n an Earth Road Im not coming to your ends for the fear of 6inches n ails and stuff

OEM

geezyk:

Big daddy problems
1. Suspension issues
2. Power steering issues.

You see that Suspension issue, na the major wahala for the car, you go dey repair underneath everytime, from low arm to shocks, stabilizer linkage bushings and so on. But na still confort ride sha, premium AC.

You have shown nothing but profound ignorance of cars in this thread. Please quit advising anyone on anything about cars. It's a plea.

I got a lexus 04 ES330 Tokunbo for my mom last year September. When it arrived in Lagos, it was scanned by my mechanic and necessary repairs were done. About a month later, I installed a car tracker in the car.

Here is the problem: To get the car started each morning, you have to crank it twice, After the first crank, you have to wait for about 3-5minute then crank it again. This is the only issue she is having with the car. Every other thing works fine.

I have attached a screenshot of the scan result.

check your car battery.

When they call adults, this maggot called nwanosike will come out. So if wike did not order him like a houseboy, he wouldn't know he is wrong. And he foolishly came to tell the public that he was ordered by wike. I pity his children. Pesin papa. Well, I blame the simp of a governor who offered his useless head to them for decapitation.

He is stupid to have said that but he didn't lie. Is fubara not a foolish governor? If he had continued at the tempo he was riding then, will this maggot be saying this? But he foolishly succumbed and gave them his head to decapitate. He deserves everything coming his way.

Never get convinced to guy 10pin. You will live in regrets.

Even the vintage Mercedes benz wasn't spared 😂 😂

where you see vintage? You must be born in late 2000s

So in essence, custom is only meant to seize contraband items not the vehicle in which the item is being conveyed. I have bookmarked this.

2009 Camry V6 Engine.

Codes are

C0300
P0300
P0302
P0306
P2197

The car idles very roughly when I hold the brake down with the gear in drive or reverse mode, gear shift is not smooth takes some second to move into a new gear, fuel consumption has increased, steering gets hard sometimes

All spark plugs and coils have been changed, injector and fuel pump serviced with two injectors changed and some parts of the pump replaced. Gear oil have been drained and refilled with Toyota WS 5 litres.

Help guys

seems you bought a very abused car. I feel you have a 10 pin transmission in that car. What type of plug did you replace with. Is your a.c. working? Has it been converted to manual? How are ur engine settings?

My Honda Accord 08 keeps jerking when moving, and after about 15mins of driving, the car stops. When I restart it, it comes on for just 1 min and jerks and stops again. If the car is left for a period of 1 hrs, the car restarts normally, but goes of again after about 15mins of driving. I was told the engine may be overheating, and have connected the fan directly to the ignition to come on immediately the car is started, but this has not solved the problem. The fuel filter and pump had also been changed, but no change. Something keeps tripping the car to stop, after a period of time. Note, the dashboard indicator does not show the engine is overheating, and temp gauge raises to the same position it has always risen to, for the past 5 years I have been driving the car. Any thoughts?

reverse that connection you did to the fan. Did you scan this car? I feel you have a fuel delivery issue.

TheOldGods:
I'm used to it, maybe cause I could afford new ones. Honestly I'm going to Lagos to get new one again, but this time I decided to go to Lagos myself from east and buy it. Making sure I am buying Bosch. I bought new compressor and this will be a year and it has not disappointed for a day. Its just that I Bo ght fake if not. The thing just cut my fuse 20am fuse twice, tried to jum but it was sparking sef.

another new one will get damaged too. Something is wrong. Something that keeps blowing that fuse to get to the alternator. Meanwhile, alternators hardly come with 20amp fuse rate. I know of 40amps. Check the correct rating of that fuse.

Check last line

His complain was for oil leaks presumably from the valve cover.
Has nothing to do with PCV.

clogged pcv valve will lead to oil leaks from valve cover. And since it's a Honda, o yes, he needs to change that pcv valve.

Rex123:
Mine is a 6 cylinder and the mechanic told me it was the valve which he assured me he replaced but I’m still seeing oil stains

buy a new pcv valve

If you are a car owner in Nigeria you need to be very sharp and attentive, before you take your car to any mechanic you must first try as much as possible to diagnose the problem.

I bought a car in August, a direct Belgium car, as soon as I bought the car I called my mechanic to change the tyres and brake pads, guess what?
After changing tyres, this mechanic intentionally put bad, oversized brake pads, after like 2 days I started noticing smoke from my tyres, whenever I match brake I will hear a very loud noise I was angry so I called the mechanic again and told him the issue, he said brake pad is ok that I need to change one disk shaped metal that the brake pad rests on, I did so for
25k and after 24hr the noise returned, he already removed the follow come stuff and replaced it with an ugly rusted one. I was suspicious.
When the noise returned I decided to take it to total filling station mechanics, after explaining to the guys they said the problem is the brake pad. They changed it and till this day no single noise from my tires, I haven't changed brake pad since then.

Since then I have met 2 different mechanics and one thing I discovered was that these mechanics usually give wrong diagnosis intentionally especially if your car is still neat with follow come parts, example if your ac gas finish they will say you need to change ac sensor, they will remove your follow come ac sensor and put substandard one. After everything they will sell your follow come sensor to spare parts dealers and before you know it your car will be a total mess.

a.c. gas no de finish. If e finish, e de leak.

P0020 (crankshaft position actuator bank 2) and P0343 (camshaft position sensor) has to do with your crankshaft and camshaft position sensor which when weak will not send the required signal to the ECM and in turn the ECM will switch off spark and fuel delivery nah the problem of the first brainbox stopping your shocking issues.

P0123 and P2135 is your throttle sensor while P0453 is just emission that one can't cause the non start issue.

You will start your journey from p0020 and p0343, the rewire needs to find the required sensor, trace the wiring for continuity then clean the sensor if it's still same, you may need to replace the sensors with OEM.

Focus more on the P0343 because it can also mean you have timing issues but above all you need a qualified technician not some roadside doddle.

it may be timing issue
