Nissan Make Believe

I had a nissan rogue 2008 that I perform regular check and maintenance frequently. It came up with a rattling noise at the first start in the day. Without any underlying issue apart from the rattling noise.

I went on to commence the replacement of the Camshaft gear, after the replacement and coupling it back, the car cranks but won’t start. After further diagnosis it was discovered there was no current on the coil to give sparks to the plugs

Now this is the most interesting part, on a normal car the right solution will be the crankshaft position sensor been faulty, but on nissan it was another issue entirely. Once the camshaft and crankshaft is not synchronised, you won’t get any start.

So I had to reset the timing which made us discover the timing adjuster to be the culprit of the jumping, it was fixed yet the car won’t start and supply current to the Coil. We had to get back down to wiring and it was discover some wiring were partially exposed and we had to run a full and thorough rewiring of the vehicle.

After all was done the car came to life and we were happy and even went ahead to test drive and all was ok until the next day and the vehicle goes back to no spark.After carefully examining it to determine where the issue is coming from After paying huge money to rewires and they don’t give me the right answer I want.

I discover the earth wire in nissan rogue was just the culprit all this time. One thing that actually trigger my curiosity was that the car will crank but won’t start and every other operation works fine. I brought in a battery of 100 amps to to crank and the vehicle came to live once.

Went ahead to run all test and came to the conclusion of the running another earth wire. Which was done getting a thick wire connecting it to the battery positive terminal and screwing it to one bolt on the car body.
An in-depth expose like this is supposed to have been posted in the car talk section. You’d find a Nissan/infinity thread there.

In case of next time

Good work

AND SO? undecided

That house might actually be their family home in their village built by their father or grandfather and there have been relatives living in it and tending to their businesses in the village.

Remember they were based in plateau state. Might have been visiting that house in that compound maybe once in every other year for Christmas.

They have grown and their kindred must have allocated them their due lands for building for themselves and their families or they have acquired lands in that same village for the same.

If they wish to renovate this particular house for whomever lives there (maybe a gateman or relative) then fine. But it’s not something that they must do. Remember if they have to hold occasions in their village they must have their own better compounds OR they use a rented cosy venue. It’s mostly funeral and igba- nkwu that is done in a lady’s fathers house.

Car TalkRe: A Vibrating Toyota Corolla 2002-solution-ish by Conner44: 5:22pm On Jul 29, 2022
@ cj1080, Geoabeeys

Your engine mounts are not directly joined together with your engine. There is a mounting plate in between the mount and engine.

The mounting plate is usually screwed to the engine and the engine mounts are screwed to the mounting plate.

Your vibrations could be caused by the screws holding the mounting plate to your engine getting worn out or loose. If one bolt on that mounting plate is loose or broken your vehicle will vibrate no matter the type of engine mounts you buy and put into your engine.

So when next you’re doing your maintenance tell your mechanic to check if the bolts on the metal plates that are holding the engine mounts to your engine frame are still intact.

after replacing my inner cup shaft. VSA and ABS light came on, ever than. Any suggestions
The mechanic who worked on your suspension must have either damaged your wheel speed sensor for that tyre oh he didn’t plug it into the socket on the hub well after doing his work so go back and tell him to check.

Better still get a simple scan of the vehicle so you know exactly what the issue is.

Wow. Surprised. I hardly see it in mobil filling stations
Yes I don’t know why most retailers don’t stock it. Or even if they have it in stock people buy it up very fast.

I have a slow leak on my engine and I’ve been using this one for my last 2 oil changes. My engine takes 4ltrs and I use the rest for top off till my next change.

It’s the most cost effective method of sidestepping my problem for now. I have driven roughly 2,000kms since my last oil change and I still have half a liter left in the 5ltr can which means before I top off the whole 5ltrs I’m already due for another change.

Since I found out about this 5ltr can I’ve never even looked at the 4ltr own again because It’s cheaper than buying the 4ltr can and an extra 1ltr one at the same time.

Let me bust your head, even the regular mobil 1000 XHP 20w50 has its own 5ltr can too cheesy

The first code is for your evap canister purge valve and the second code is for either your throttle position sensor or electronic throttle sensor on your throttle body.

Is your vehicle using drive by wire or throttle cable?

Good morning guys. How are we?

Please o, someone woke me up this morning that the fan of my Honda CR-V was working. By the time I got in, I noticed the radio lights and co were on, I tried starting the car but the battery had run down. However, immediately I put off the ignition, it stopped.

I’ve not driven the car in the a few days now cos the sump is leaking.

What could be happening pls?
So you’re saying that without the keys in the ignition your cooling fans and radio were on? We’re any other things on too like your instrument cluster, door vanity lights etc?

And after you came and inserted your ignition key and tried starting it and it didn’t start you then switched the ignition off and everything went off and back to normal? Is this what happened?

If it is then I think you need an auto electrician to look at your ignition switch and it’s accompanying circuits.

Thanks boss.

I read your post and responded accordingly, you didn't read mine.

He might not get it right if he tries, I was hoping you recommend someone who has hands-on with such mechanism.

changing pump is this terrible economy, if it can be easily resolved is wiser. I guess

I appreciate.
No I don’t have anyone I can recommend but people repair these pumps at oyingbo or ladipo easily. I think the use of substandard/wrong seals was the issue with your prior rebuilds. If you could source the seals from Amazon/Aliexpress yourself and hand over to a mechanic to fix I bet you’d be happy with the results.

No no, go to mobil petrol station and buy the mobil 2000 5w30 the one with a black cover , use it for one oil change interval and observe the conditions of both the oil level and your engine performance.

Note that the 20w50 mobil XHP has a blue cover, don’t use this one. Use the one with a black cover.

Thanks for your response. The previous engine smoked and was replaced with tokunbo engine.

Can I have your contact details please. If you could help resolve the issues.

Sometimes the car jerk/slip forward when changing from gear 1 to 2 also do same when I put in reverse. I used Honda DW1
How long ago was the tokumbo engine installed? If it wasn’t more than a month ago then I believe the smoke passing the exhaust from your former engine fouled up the O2 sensors and they will need some cleaning to be working well again. Or just driving normally with the new engine for some weeks might loosen up the oily debris fouling the sensors and they will be working fine again.

But

If you drove with the former smoking engine for years it might be that the sensors are damaged at this point and need to be replaced. First clean them and if they still throw codes then replace them. Highest N20k for both sensors. I hope you put your thermostat back into the tokumbo engine, because if you didn’t then expect your engine to start smoking soon and your oxygen sensors can never work well no matter if it’s new ones or the old ones.

Concerning your gearbox you need to give more information. A scan will help WITH A GOOD HIGH END SCANNER able to read transmission codes. How does it jerk? Does it jerk like ‘gbim’ when you put it into reverse the whole time or only when the engine is cold (when it’s first started after parking for a long time) ? When changing from gears 1-2 does it rev up high before changing with a jerk and does your tires ‘screech’ ? If your engine a 4 or 6 plugs?

Explain how the gearbox issues are affecting your drive so I have a picture of what’s going on.

Then follow my recommendation, if the engine doesn’t smoke or short oil then you can switch to a higher end brand of oil like mobil1 5w30.

But for now try the one I told you of for one oil change interval of 3000kms and see how the vehicle behaves with it.

Hello,

Please I need help on these codes for Honda Accord 2006.
Your vehicle might be missing its thermostat and it’s cooling fans are running directly from battery power.

Then, it’s like your oxygen sensors are both bad OR you have a smoky engine. If your engine doesn’t smoke then change both your O2 sensors.
