Burchester:
Okay thank you, will try to remove the filters inside and drive without them. Because I have also cleaned all those filters before and install them back yet the issue was the same.

Yes, try to drive without those filters for a bit and see if there will be any changes.

Felicity0001:
You still dey wait for another 1m dashboard? All the once you don see never do you?

In your other mention to me you even said i should post a 1m dashboard.

Open your eyes to the truth and stop being gullable by so unverified claims .

But cheerful did a video of his phone while he was opening up his bolt account and checking his dashboard. He did it at the time when you in particular were voiced about the possibility of his dashboards being photoshopped. Don’t you remember? I have forgotten the amount on his dashboard at the time but it was definitely huge.

I admit that I haven’t seen him before or held his phone to ascertain the exact amount he has on his dashboard but ever since I saw him do that video I became a believer.

Felicity, look let me tell you a basic truth that might sound painful to you. Do you know that because YOU yourself are not able to make up to N1 million driving on bolt in a month, it does not mean that NOBODY else can do it.

I respect you as I respect cheerful and I’ve said it here before. You and him have your strengths on this thread and I value that. But you and cheerful really need to squash this beef asap I swear.

Burchester:
Thank you, Yes I have been having this code since. And do you mean I should get Another VTC solenoid as in the picture below. And no I haven’t been running the engine on low oil. I am using 5w30. So now the only options are get another solenoid or timing chain or tensioner/adjuster ?

No, don’t get another vtc solenoid yet. You already changed it so assuming you bought a good replacement then perform this test instead for the meantime to rule out any oil pressure related fault with the system.

Sometimes the filter screens for the vtc and vtec solenoids get clogged/blocked or degraded and need to be cleaned or changed. The non oem replacements we sometimes buy have a weird type of mesh in it’s own filter that can trigger this code too. So I want you to bring out the both of them from your engine and run your engine without them for a day and see if the code clears.

The positions of these 2 filters are in the first picture.

The type of filters to remove (or clean if dirty) are in the 1st picture too

The vtc solenoid strainer/filter is in the 2nd picture (it’s position on your engine is directly behind the power steering pump and below the valve cover. Small Rectangular looking shape with two 10mm bolts.

The second filter/strainer is behind the vtec solenoid 3rd pic (top back of the engine, directly above the engine oil filter and below the valve cover). 3 10mm bolts. The back of the vtec solenoid looks like the 4th pic as well.

Remove both units and take out the filters then replace the units and test the vehicle to see if the code still remains. Sometimes the little things cause the most headaches

I repeat the guy never defrauded me ... We never did any business together...... But I blocked him for a reason as u can see...... Let us leave it as dat.....i

I am in my serious mode now .. So let's us be objective so that I can reply with seriousness

Well okay oh, na you sabi

But if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and flies like a duck . . .

I just hope you’re sure about whatever you have against Donfortune. Because to a fully-literate observer like me it looks like you wanted to label him a scam artist/419 man for reasons best known to only you.

kingreign:
I drive long distances frequently and at high speeds taking frequent turns and dodging potholes and bumps and braking rapidly.

Ahh, you na egbon Hamilton small small oh

Druski:
I never talk say na yahoo and wire wire the guy dey do
Don't put words in my mouth o ...oga

When a person tells me he wan sell dollar to me and his people can wire or send check to me .. I dey run from all that shit........

Dru carry shame and put inside your back pocket then open your mouth with your full chest and accuse whoever you wish to accuse directly and clearly.

So you won’t be confusing the thunder that has been hovering over this thread to strike somebody

Druski:
Mama cooking is turn by turn

You need to Focus more on ur uber driving...... You have been driving for a long time.......

May we not labour in vain........ If I was a fool I would excepted that transfer u wanted to do .....


I can recall you wanted to sell some US dollars .. You stated that your people will wire me the money or by check...... I refuse to indulge in ur activities.....

We use to chat .... I had to blocked. U ... I take no nonsense from anyone.......

Relax my brother .... He go reach everyone ........just relax .....


For me to block you ... It was for a reason. And u know the reason

So are you insinuating that Donfortune is a Uber driver by day and a yahoo-yahoo, wire-wire 419 fraudster by night?

Omo the kind condiments wey dru mama pack put inside this her cooking pot today ehn. . .

Blackzero:
no it hasnt been touch,

The number one thing that will make that engine not start in that vehicle at all is the brainbox, the second thing that will make the engine not run well once it’s started is the gearbox.

I sincerely hope your mechanic knows what he’s doing because I doubt you’re the one who coerced yourself into purchasing a Toyota engine for your Kia.

I’m not saying the vehicle won’t work oh, but that the work and materials you will need to put into the vehicle will be plenty.

Good luck

Felicity0001:
Anyways, you can continue to ass lick who ever you chose to after all it only a blind man that can be lead not a man with his sight

And baba yes na true, I asslick cheerful here no be lie. And it’s simply because he’s the only person here that I see can ever achieve that fabled N1 million naira dashboard. In fact last year he reached a whooping N950,000 on his dashboard within a month of 30 days which almost drove me to pisss on my boss’s head. So I agree to asslick him with my full chest no shame at all at all.

Or felicity abi can you show me the N1 million dashboard? yeah, I didn’t think so too

Felicity0001:
Yet you're yet to wee on your bosses head to sign up with bolt or better still taste the waters for week ends abi ur work includes Saturdays and Sundays and public holidays too

Not all that glitters is gold bro.

Ordinary logical thinking should tell you 2seconds is not an advantage for any driver.

By the way, where was it stated that 2sec is allotted to any driver closest to a rider making a request? Lies!

When I talk now the fuul will go and write cut and join oxford English that doesn't mix up properly believing I've his time.

Anyways, you can continue to ass lick who ever you chose to after all it only a blind man that can be lead not a man with his sight

Ahn ahn, felicity me and you no dey quarrel naw

So when I once wrote on this thread that I have once upon a time driven on bolt and inDriver you thought I was capping? I drove on ehailing part time for 2 years from 2018-2019 back when I was living and working in owerri. In fact I was among the first set of people that registered to drive on bolt in owerri at the time.

Even until now my accounts with them are still active. All I have to do for Bolt is take my vehicle for another inspection here in Lagos and for inDriver I have to upload my current vehicle license again.

Yes, I am not able to drive now because I have a job that takes most of my time BUT I still say that if I see N1 million dashboard I will piss on my boss head and moooveee the entire Lagos eehh

Abeg make una careful oh una never hear say dru mama don go market come back?

Kitchen don full yakata : no be normal cooking pot him mama wan use cook this next batch oh, na tripod and firewood she go use cook am for backyard.

Smoke plenty
Fire plenty
Mamas cooking go plenty

no struggle, e go reach everybody

Blackzero:
automatic, no i didnt touch d gear box, the gear box has been changed once but it still worked fime

Check what you wrote. You’re confusing me with brainbox and gearbox.

kingreign:
Lol!
My own na anytime I notice slight brake fade or discoloration I Dey change am. I even get 2 cans of DOT4 heavy duty brake fluid inside any car I own.

Brake fade ke! Abeggi oh

The single can I bought and threw into my boot has been there since 4 years now na for topping up and to ‘loosen’ stubborn bolts I dey use am do since.

My own brakes function as they are supposed to even after using the same oil for so long but i will still change the fluid to see if I can notice any improvements or changes.

Burchester:
Changed the VTC Solenoid. Still the code is showing the same?

Still the same P0011 code? I’m beginning to suspect the replacement vtc solenoid you bought but first have you been driving this vehicle personally for a while? Have you ever scanned it in the past and got another code before this one?

This P0011 is a generic dtc code. It comprises of various systems in the engine that work together. Each system has their own specific dtc codes which can be gotten using higher end scanners. Most of the lightweight Bluetooth scanners we use show mostly generic codes and as such can be misleading.

The active systems in the engine that can trigger the P0011 code are the camshaft, both camshaft sensors (and their wiring), Vtc actuator, vtc solenoid (and it’s wiring), timing chain, timing chain guides and tensioner rod.

So what I would do if I were you right now was to go and change the complete vtc solenoid again with a guaranteed oem used one. Sometimes the solenoid that’s not made by Honda gives issues because of its filter screen. The mesh is not like the original one and causes issues. If you want to be sure that it’s not your solenoid causing the issue then remove it from the engine again and take out those filter mesh/screens then replace the solenoid without the screens to see if the oil will flow better. I hope you kept your old vtc solenoid because if this method clears the code then you will use the old filter screens with this new solenoid. I hope you’re not using 20W50 weight of engine oil.

You’ve practically changed everything up top of the engine so I wonder what else the issue might be, and to go down to the engine timing system it means you have had ongoing oil related issues example If you’ve been either leaking oil or burning oil and have been unknowingly running the engine on low oil once in a while. This habit can rapidly wear out your timing system.

The last time I had this same P0011 code it came along with a P0341 code which was for my camshaft position sensor. I later found out it was a timing chain tensioner/adjuster that was the culprit but I still changed it along with my timing chain for good measure because it had stretched a tiny bit.

kingreign:
Nurey, I no believe you but kwantinu

na real oga him be,

I refresh my pads every 2 years and I haven’t brought my thoughts to changing the oil at the same time too.

Finally I’ve checked my habits of recent and realize I seriously need to change my brake oil asap

When I first poured it in it was bluish but now it’s looking clear It must have ‘belle-full’ from all the moisture it has been absorbing for close to 6 years

Blackzero:
hello please i need an electrician that can work on converted cars , my kia rio 2012 uses a matrix engine, which has just been replaced but it has refused starting, please any good referal will be helpful

What is the type of gearbox in the vehicle right now? Did you touch the brainbox too?

Utifam:
Seems like there are some certain people that their messages get replies. I have posted quite a few inquiry messages here and for some reason people skip it and move over to more familiar users. I am not trying to be rude or anything, but it can be frustrating when you ask valid questions and it never gets replied. I thought that this is suppose to be an informative space/center. Thank you

It’s because you’re asking a rhetorical question

IF anyone needs to ask concerning his vehicle and it’s dependability for use in e hailing IT SHOULD NOT BE SOMEONE WHO OWNS AND DRIVES A TOYOTA COROLLA no matter the year or trim.

Abuja and port are nice cities to drive in but to maximize profit on time peeps usually opt for the Lagos locality.

Since you own the vehicle and want to drive it yourself then even in sokoto you will be okay with your profit and have peace of mind.

Healthquest:
so obi and tinubu were governor at d same timeand people are still seeing u as someone who worth a reply?.
The NAME OBIDENSE Cannot be more clearer than it is now

Show us pictures.

WycliffeSMB:
Good evening House!

Pls I need Expert Advice/recommendations...

How good is Castrol Engine oil in comparison to Mobil Engine oil?

Which is better in these two options?

I'm confused on the one to choose for my HONDA ODYSSEY 2001.

Car Mileage: 156,000 miles.

Both are good. One is full synthetic and the other is a synthetic blend.

Choose the one that won’t affect your pocket

Biodun556:
Indomie generation will not understand the question.

Tinubu was elected governor 23 years ago. No internet, phones were even scarce in those days. Only the media house will have the video and pictures.

Wasn’t Peter Obi too a state governor at the same time as tinubu? Why does Obi have many pictures littered all over his thread while tinubu own has none?

Oluwaseunbandur:
She's a woman and most female folks act that way. I am confident she has taken all the advices so far. It's just like a woman telling u *NO* while is meant YES

Women and their matter self

Wordsfrombimpe:
Also note the op you are criticizing her grammar

She has a physical office you can kindly check my out on Instagram @everythingdigitalbimpe

As well patronize me

It’s not by having office. Even a shoe maker has office.

Try to read more books before you delve into writing them. You can’t give what you don’t have.

Oluwaseunbandur:
And u have concluded she won't work on it??

Can’t you see the way she’s being defensive about her bad grammar on this thread? How can she willingly want to change it if she’s this comfortable with it?

Oluwaseunbandur:
People attacking bimpe on her English made me remembered when pastor TB Joshua started. His English was damn poor and people laughed at him, same people Came for miracles and favour from him....before his demise,he ended up been fluent in English

That was because he worked on his grammar and took corrections.

Something this op is afraid of doing

4ward4:
Got new tires already .
I am in abuja , if anyone have a competent mechanic pls refer me.

The guy above you already suggested the three things that could be your solution.

You’ve crossed out bad tires, so what next is there on your list to cross?

I don’t understand, why are you guys saying he’s stupid?

Or Is it only stupid people who attend naming ceremonies?

73O9:
Have you finally pissed on someone's head?

You think it’s only bolt and Uber drivers that those wereys used to catch?


Me I nova piss oh, I still dey wait for N1million a month dashboard before I pisss

erm, my friends and pilots in the house. Let’s all learn to manage each other on this thread. Abeg.

We all know we have many characters here. This is not like a football thread where everybody has loyalty to one club or another. Everybody that comes here has a reason. Both those who are invested in the business and those who aren’t yet.

Me I come here to get traffic updates and know where and where Lastma or Vio are ambushing people so I don’t fall victim. I’ve paid them before twice already and I won’t like to have that experience again. I’m sure there are many people like me too that visit this thread regularly.

Okay I know I’ve posted some overboard stuff about one or two people here before, but it’s still all part of the management process

felicity and cheerful have been yabbing themselves lately but you see this latest one up there . . .as I been dey read am, even fear catch me for the vowu lence level. I gatz to speak up

So the essence of this my post is cheerful and felicity abeg, try to manage each other better so that the aura of the thread does not stagnate. You guys give out good information here but I know you can do better at just trying to get along. You guys have no real reason to be this bitter at reading each other’s posts. Felicity is a responsible member here who is even seen as a ‘father’ in more ways than one who manages kids with university issues (Johnny)

Even me myself, I know you guys are just managing me here. I am a very big trouble maker I know but you manage me.

We all know dru, yes we manage him too. He comes here to drop info and follow members to banter as well as being philanthropic whenever his spirit is leading. It’s what we expect of him so we manage him. What of people like mejai, Bazzo and yeye, those ones are not trouble makers oh but they like to push the vawulence (once they see smoke, fire has to catch) lol, and we see them doing it but we also manage them. We have others following others bumper to bumper like village people (pope) and we understand why pearl has learned to manage people like him properly (PS. if pearl argues with you you’d want to put your hand into your phone screen and grab his neck lol) it is the way he is so we have to manage him.

What of old drivers on the platform who have multiple monikers they use to watch this thread and engage in discussions once in a while? Those who come to warn us of alleged fake engine oils (7309) and not forgetting those who only come out when there’s owambe activities going on (gabrinchi). We can all manage each other very well if we just want to.


I hail all those calling for a truce in various forms recently ie. Barbiturate and pearl calling for bottles to be shared for the vawulence between posters here to ‘reduce’ . . . I mean, we all know vawulence can’t be stopped, it can only be transferred from one state to another (hence the beer)

Abeg let us all give P a small chance to germinate this month. It’s a new month, September 1st, we can do it. Even if it’s for only one month. Let’s use today to reflect on our grievances with members who have wronged us emotionally or otherwise on this thread and find it in us to do away with such weights on our minds.

Peace y’all.

Christistruth00:
Wakili that was Terrorising Igangan in Oyo State has not yet been arraigned in Court and OPC arrested him and handed him over to the Police more than a year ago after the Police failed to arrest him themselves


I don't think Baba Buhari would say such as thing but with the way Malami deliberately is bungling the Abba kyari extradition Case I can't put it past attorney general Malami to try to frustrate the prosecution of Herdersmen

https://guardian.ng/news/igangan-residents-allege-wakilis-son-lieutenants-still-terrorise-community/

and I read somewhere that the wakilu man escaped during that last prison break

Because it’s an igbo man warming up to be the next president of Nigeria all these ones have completely lost their minds lol

See how they went and resurrected this thread just for tribal wars to ensue.

Peter Obi for president 2023 and nothing can stop it
