Am4obama: P0430 P0320 means your catalytic converters are beyond acceptable threshold. Kindly research more on this topic before agreeing to a fix. Kindly go and remove those mesh before it start suffocating your engine and u will have bigger issues on your hands. Find out what is causing it? If you are in Lagos, meet Gazzuz so he can install spacers on the sensors on each bank of those catalysts and see if it solves the problem. Please |

sharpsharp: I did this with my A/F sensor. Basically lead poisoning on the sensor. Cleaned the sensor and refitted it back. The codes came back but that's after driving for like 100 miles. Since then, the check will go off on its own and come back on after say 40 or 50 miles. I cleared the codes again on Thursday, went to Kaduna yesterday and came back. Codes came back again this morning. So a longer term fix will be to change the sensor. But the culprit is our fuel. The lead content in our fuel is poisoning the O2 and A/F sensors. Until we start using unleaded fuel in Nigeria, we pretty much have to keep P2241, P0430 and P0230 and related faults company. |

lomomike: My car doesn't come with the AFS switch. I think the guy tampered with the sensor adjustment at the right rear. Cos i was hearing some noise whenever i go over a bump the Wednesday evening i took the car from them. But on driving out Thursday morning, the noise were gone |

lomomike: Partly. Had to service the left front Caliper. I discovered the break pistons were not retracting and the rubber bushings were worn, thereby leaking oil. The brake pad on that side is worn, basically explaining why the discs got warped. My problem now is that my AFS indicator is illuminate. I rang you two numbers last thursday and they were both switched off for long periods. |

ChimaAdeoye: You guys ain't totally wrong mehn! I left Enugu in 2006. . . .i still visit almost every other month to see my parents. The last rent we paid in Achara Layout in 2010 was N240k for a 3 bedroom flat. I knew New Heaven was going for around N260k - N280k around then. Independence Layout, were my uncle lived in a stand alone compound (bungalow) was N400k. But men, N1m in a space of 5 years? Massive mehn!!! 1 Like |

GAZZUZZ: I saw this last night and was really thankful. Cos i was thinking of how to shell out another N75k for a pair of front brake discs. Do you know anyone who does it in Abuja? Do you achieve a very smooth surface afterwards such that the vibrations are never felt? Pardon my curiosity. |
Car Talk / Re: Club-Lexus by Emperoh(m): 10:41am On Jun 12, 2015 |
lomomike: Bros u need to meet this guy. . . . . .maybe one of these days, anytime you are in Town. Vibrations haven't totally gone, but i will do a wheel balancing and alignment and see what's up. Then plan to change the disc and brakes again. I wish Gazzuz will give me the price for a good one. 1 Like |

So here's what went down; Was having this uncomfortable pulsation when driving my sleek L Series of wheel balancing did not solve this issue. Lots of permutations from uneven tire wear to a faulty wheel hub were thrown in. All these with the recurrent/steady P2241, that graduates to P0430. . . . . . .So i went to some dude whom a colleague introduced me to. He runs AutoGenesis Centre. Just on the same premises you have Ascon filling station in Wuse II. . . . Adetokunbo Ademola (at the corner piece if you are driving from Amigos super market). Bayo is one heck of an auto encyclopaedia. So after a test drive, he examined the tires and everything seem even. Removed the two front tires and realised that the Stabiliser linkages were weak: 2 front. Also saw that the Suspension bushings were also weak too. That could give an idea for the vibration. But i also noticed that the Brake discs and pads i changed in December was also 'burnt' (whatever that meant) and the pads chopped too. The burnt discs meant they have become warped too. While we were on it, we started our usual discussion around the P0430 and P2241. And Bayo said he's figures something ideas at solving the issue. One thing about this dude is the way researches and reads issues. I doff my heart. So, he asks his boys to extract the malfunctioning sensor. and Lo. . . . . 'lead poisoning'. That's a Denso terminology to describe a sensor 'killed' by so much lead in the fuel or the fuel additives. There was a Denso sensor catalogue which further describes this issue. There's also Silicon poisoning and another one too (can't remember now). So we clean up the sensor real good and reinstall it. Cleared the codes and observing it. About 30km later, still no 'Christmas light'. I will report back here if anything changes and i hope it doesn't. It is instructive to note that, this lead issue goes on to affect the catalytic converters. With the leaded fuel on sale in Nigeria, the P2241 and P0420 and P0430 will remain a recurrence for most auto users. I have introduced Bayo to this thread. he has visited and i hope he starts posting soon enough. |

lomomike: The pulsation. . . . . i left it at Auto Genesis this morning. My front Stab linkages and suspension bushings are bad. So I am changing those and then observe again. Dude is also suggesting my brake disc is 'burnt'. I am not sure how possible that could be. and if the linkage and bushing could be the fault. Will do wheel balancing afterwards. |

nissparts: I did this at Car Doctor's place in Abuja last August. Brought it down and we looked at it. Everything looked intact and clean. We soaked it in soapy water for some hours and installed it back. But not long after, the lights came back. I guess i will do the sensor ish. One more thing, any way to determine a good tokumbo A/F sensor? |

nissparts: I did this last year. Was brought down and looked at. Even soaked in soapy water The net and all looked intact. The question then is, how do you know a bad Cat converter since it is existing? |

nissparts: I have three recurrent codes and they come up in this order after i clear them with my device; First P2241 comes up and then after driving for another 100 miles or more, P0430 comes up and then the last after almost 400 miles is P0442 which has to do with Evap system detecting very small leak. I am just wondering they are related too. The thing is, i am getting ready to face this demon and conquer it. But i don't want some trial and error. It concluded based on discussions here, that P2241 causes P0430. but with what you now said, i no sure again. So what's the best repair approach cause i believe one system is causing all these 3 issues. |

GAZZUZZ: Could this also, be a possible trigger for P0430? |
Car Talk / Re: Club-Lexus by Emperoh(m): 10:10pm On May 18, 2015 |
Guys, please advice needed? What sensor does P2241 point to? O2 or A/F sensor? Resources online say it is low current from A/F sensor. But my scanner is saying low current from O2 sensor. Kinda confusing. I use a Creader 123 scanner. Mike how far? |
