we are waiting for you grin
do you understand what I am saying? I did not say he didn't need a new tranny, I only asked a question, nobody around you in the whole of Lagos does rebuilding of Automatic trannies, especially for small cars? it is a question, here that I am, I only know people who rebuild trannies but for heavy duty applications only, ie trucks, I was planning to invest time and money into that, and acquire that knowledge, because I have some spoilt trannies lying around.

Nigerians and comprehension problem na like 5 and 6.

scan the car first and what type of ATF did you put in the car, roadside ATF? or the recommended ATF

trantulla:
the code P2716that kept popping up in the scanner?
thank you
last time I checked that code does not mean ECM, Bad,
it does not go out because it is a hard fault, not a soft one, check this website
www.justanswer.com/toyota/2zd2p-toyota-code-p2716-repair-it.html

Read the first comment, it listed a number of things, so you must test those first before changing the ECM, if not even if you change the ECM, the fault remains

Helo everyone pls for over a week now I have been having issues with my two months old jetta passat 2002 model, I have taken to mechanic and they told me its a rewire work
They read with machine diagnostic and was told the problem has to do with immobilizer and the key but the rewire is trying to confuse me again by telling me it has entered code..
and how much do they fixed a car that entered code? I don't want to be cheated pls does anyone knows about it? am confused
Key fob gone bad maybe.
what code did they find when they scanned the car? How many keys do you have?

The chinese president speaks with an intelligible accent, given the fact that he schooled in the US anyway. His accent is much bearable compared to buhari.
Besides, he is the president of the second largest economy in the world. Everybody wants to hear him talk.
But, ermm... Nigeria is a third world country and a borderline failed state. I don't think americans would be making a special effort to hear him.
And yes, i like a president who is comfortable with the english language.
But they said the old fool studied in the US

That is because he's got a strong Hausa accent. Only kids would hold that against someone. An English man or an American might not understand some of the things he says, hence the subtitle.

Same is done for leaders around the world whose speech cary strong local accent.
No matter the accent, English is English.

Car TalkRe: Why Is My Timming Belt Always Cutting by cocoduck: 12:54pm On May 12, 2016
Siena:
[color=Blue]Your comment would suggest all Toyota engines are non-interference, which is not the case.

As for the reason calves make contact with the piston crowns when the timing belt snaps, it's not because the valves are longer. It's due to the profile of the piston crowns, and whether they have valve relief recesses machined into them.[/color]
okay thanks

what i still dont understand is why valves dont bend in all my experience.
Your valves won't bend because it's a Toyota not a Honda, Hondas use what is called interference engines, the valves are longer than, that of Toyota.

Smoke evaporation from a hot dry metallic surface. Thanks
Sorry to say it, but I have to, what you are saying makes no sense, (no pun intended, so don't be angry we learn everyday) you should describe the quantity and color of the smoke and where it is coming from, I mean is the smoke from the exhaust pipe? is the smoke white? if you are using coolant instead of ordinary water, do you perceive any sweet smelling scent or something from the exhaust, if yes then I think you might have a blown head gasket, well, I would like you (since the smoke is bizzare) to do a leak down test.


Please, Gazzuz, do you do leak down tests?

Before you start thinking of replacing the engine ,try to actually confirm by looking for a tech shop to perform compression test and leak down test to truly know if the cause is through a worn piston .If the issue is worn ring issue then u can start ur preparation for new engine

Car TalkRe: Help Ooo Gear Stiff And D4 Blinks Accord 04 by cocoduck: 5:07pm On May 11, 2016
adanny01:
I think i had this close to this problem on my 2003 accord. Mine was even worst. Till today, am scared of changing gear oil.

Read through to the end as i have 2 different cases with the gear.
https://www.nairaland.com/2055196/urgent-2003-accord-transmission-just
if you want to avoid that problem, it is simple, the key is your owners manual, in it you will find the right oil and when you must change the ATF, you must treat your gearbox the way you treat your engine, you must use the right fluid, and change it at the right time, or mileage which ever comes first, if you don't, because of heat the oil will degrade as oils do, and will loose much of its viscosity and when the damage has been done it becomes a time bomb or a live grenade, that will explode, at any time, if you change the oil put your fingers into the old oil to feel for gritty particles if there are, then the box is toast. So the key is not allowing the damage first, if it happens, it is just a downward spiral

One thing I am happy is the fact that these 1diots are on the departure lounge, from now till the next 10 years they will be no more, I remember when Babylon captured Israel, the Jews had to remain captive in Babylon for 70 years, someone may have said oh no we are never going to be free again, but when the time came Israel became free, we have only made 50 something in captive, so we still know very well that one day we will leave this God forsaken country.

Car TalkRe: Please Help! My Car Is Not Starting by cocoduck: 3:03pm On May 10, 2016
When you insert the key, Do you see any blinking light, or any key sign or immo written somewhere on the dashboard?
If no the ask your mechanic I check if one of the following is missing
1 Spark
2 Fuel
3 Compression
One must be missing, or that the engine is out of time or that the ECU is toast.
Car TalkRe: Nissan Primera 2003 Starts But Won't Rev At All by cocoduck: 10:01am On May 10, 2016
GAZZUZZ:
to do that he is suggesting changing to a carburetor, or just replacing the throttle body.

Changing the throttle body will not solve anything, car will still not rev, changing to a carb, will require a lot of modifications, and car will not be the same after that.

My advice, search for the entire engine harness (wiring) from a scrap car and replace with yours that has been burnt, presently there is no communication between the engine ecu and the throttle body, or you have the wrong engine ecu installed.
exactly

It was just a cut, didnt show any sign of being burnt. Also, as per the wire on connected to the alternator, it has been well fitted and car starts as sharo as usual. Thanks
okay sometimes it cuts as a result of age, or that your Fuel pump motor was drawing excess current, when last did you change the fuel filter, it may be clogged causing the pump motor to work extra hard, or that the pump motor is on its way out.

i thought you guys are here to help solve problems but it seems the reverse is the case.
You are all flexing knowledge as well as expertise.
If you feel the one person is not right with his comment correct and if he is not talk with the op privately and lets stop all this ITK.
Solution is the main goal and be a solution provider.
My brother I beg make you no vex, I only gave a simple suggestion to aid in the diagnostics, then they all turned on me and saying mean things to me, then I retaliated, now the thread has been derailed, well, next time if someone asks me any silly question I will ignore him or her.
I only suggested the op or his technician to also give us the live data, maybe a snapshot of it. One of them said the car needed spiritual healing and I said no andi believed it was a vacuum leak, and he should do this and that to make sure it is a leak, using the scan tool, the procedure takes less than 1 minute, then if it is not, move on to something else, that is how they decided to devour me, as if they need to kill an elephant first for it.
