Car TalkRe: I was Locked up, Extorted And Harrassed By Police In Aba Over Lagos Number Plate by Control7: 8:43am On Dec 31, 2020
@op (Ikpumbe1) your attention is needed on Twitter now

Car TalkRe: I was Locked up, Extorted And Harrassed By Police In Aba Over Lagos Number Plate by Control7:
Ikpumbe1:
Thank you all for your responses. I am now sure that my plate number is not fake. I am at the police station waiting for the arrival of the IPO and DPO. A police man that was part of the squad that I spoke to still maintain that the plate number is fake since it is not on FRSC database. To them that is the only database they know. He also said that if they release the car, it may not be with the plate number since it is 'fake'. The DPO will have the final say when he arrives. After then I will know what to do.
You are just being gentle with them and putting yourself at the mercy of the DPO/whoever is in charge.

Go on Twitter, create a tread, tagg Police CRU unit, Segalink, ACP Isiaku, you can also call +2348057000003 (NPF control room Abuja). You will get your money back with an apology.

Car TalkRe: Any Bad Effect In Lifting The Suspension Of My Honda Accord? by Control7: 9:40pm On Nov 07, 2020
johnchins:
Hello House,

Due to bad roads I'm contemplating raising the suspension of my Accord 2010. However, I will like to understand if there will be any adverse or irredeemable effect.
It's a matter of choice/what you want. I raised my front suspension by 2cm for more than a year now, still doing120km/hr - 150km/hr.

Car TalkRe: Gear Problems: Toyota Camry 2005 Model, 4 Plug Engine by Control7: 5:57pm On Oct 08, 2020
GAZZUZZ:
The 2005/6 Camry 4cylinder is matted to the U250E 5 speed transmission unit.

It is a very sensitive transmission unit that will not entertain any form of contamination .


One of the reasons this particular transmission fails is because most technicians work in environments that can easily facilitate contamination .

Major cause of failure is sand/dirt getting into the transmission from 2 places .

1. CV axle

2. Refill port

Another place that could cause failure in this transmission (and many others) is a damaged air vent which is located on top the transmission housing. The air vent I usually extended via a plastic joint and a rubber pipe, and raised to the level of the height of the dipstick, or close to the vehicles head cylinder. The reason the vehicle manufacturer raised the Vent that high was to limit the possibility of water entering into the transmission during driving in wet conditions that might involve water levels that would possibly submerge the transmission which is very common on most Nigerian terrains. When the plastic joint gets damaged it is easy for fluid from external sources to contaminate transmission .


Now to your present situation.

Vehicle is produced with a 5speed aka 13pin transmission which is currently failing.

What is recommended is a 4speed 10pin transmission .

The vehicle will move (the wonders of Toyota/Lexus) but when wiring it up installer has 5solenoid connections and 4 solenoids.what happens is vehicle will always skip a gear that will not be connected . The vehicle will no longer be able to downshift, and on every cycle of transmission shifts you will notice an uncomfortable thump.


I understand why most technicians avoid the U250E transmission, this is because in this part of the world we are not very smart, the engine sellers remove the CV axles from the transmissions and leave them bare which also is a possible cause of contamination , and because it is already a sensitive transmission the technician is already setup for failure before he starts the job.

My advice contact the transmission seller to supply and install transmission . He will provide part, oil and installer , and will give you a guarantee on work done , he will also replace transmission as many times as required until it works.


Good luck.

Car TalkRe: Camry 02 Misfire by Control7: 8:28pm On Oct 07, 2020
Okoyedavid3:
Hi,
Pls I make use of a carmy V6, 04 model. I have been experiencing check engine Light on. I scanned the car it showed p0300,p0301,p0305 cylinder misfire. Have changed the plugs to newer ones, the whole six, cleaned the injector. After doing this I toot on a short trip the Cel light didn't appear, But still after going on the 2nd trip next day, CEL comes up, when I scan, the same code pops on....

I need help in resolving this issue. Kindly assist.
Since you have changed plugs and still same.
Swap ignition coils, take 1 to 2 and 5 to 6. Clear the code, let's see if the misfire will come to cylinder 2 and 6, if it does your ignition coils is bad but if it still remains on 1 and 5, there is an issue with the cylinder.

HealthRe: Help, My Newborn Has This Skin Problem by Control7: 6:50am On Jun 29, 2020
mandalorian:
Hello house, my boy is barely one month old and he developed this skin issue. One of my colleagues said it is Ela(Yoruba) but from my experience, ela use to manifest as very red tiny rashes around the neck and joints.

Now this one is not on his neck (though it is in both his elbow joints, scarcely on his Tommy and this morning I say it at the back of his knee), his skin molts around the rashes. I just can't completely describe it that's why I included the pics.

I need help elders in the house. I took him back to the hospital where he was born but they said it will go but I don't like the look.

Mods pls help me push to fp.
Someone experienced something lik this and he used what I attached in the picture and he came back here to testify. Try it

Am an automobile technician, if you want to love-vendor your car, First have it in mind that if you are buying it here in Nigeria it might be China you will get.
First thing to get is
1.Reims and tires
2 door padded
3.tinted Lyon
4.Silver Door handle
5.door spoiler
6.front and rear bumper to sport type
7.change of car stereo to the display one,that will come with reverse camera
8. You can change the paint to black, white or any colour of you choice . you can also get colour of your choice from colour chart.

If you can take the car to ladipo for your love-vendor chioce, its a day processing, they will do it for and later you will go and spray the car with over bake,
