Hmm,things are getting worst everyday

ajomo2nde:
I am thinking of getting a 2010 Honda insight EX what does the house think about the car and the likely issues I should watch out for. It's Nigerian used tho direct from the owner and we'll maintained I think

2010 Honda insight is second generation hybrid for Honda with an improved design and output,a parallel hybrid system from the review is even better than civic,if well maintained,you can go for it.

Don't be surprise,the dude will get high patronage and make more money.

When the you close the car door and locked does your security (red) light blink or flash?when you on the ignition key does it stay solid and steadily on.if it stays solid that mean there is an issue with your immobilizer attached the to the key ring and if it does not blink when u lock the vehicle there is a problem with the immobiliser.I will suggest more troubleshooting cos sometimes it can be fuse from the fuse box.The key immobiliser are prone to issues.

Traces of water inside the contactor relay,it was open and clean left it with direct sunlight to dry any water trapped.It was fixed back and test drive no more P0AA6

Sir empron

Sir nurey
Sir chillex


I am having an issue with my charging system. My battery does go beyond 12.70 when car is on, thus I think the alternator is not charging the battery but when I put on Acc and head light , it begins to charge . The multimeter reads 13-14 but when I off the loads, it reduces to 12.6. Sometimes the car just don’t start again. What can be the issue pls. Rewire tested alternator to be okay and battery isn’t up to 1 year. Thanks

Look like more of wiring issues confirm the wire from the alternator to the battery, sometimes with high resistance or short to ground they can display such fault.

boss, can I pm you? I’d like to call you 🙏🏻

Abdul111:
I earlier scanned the car and this was what the scanner showed, I don’t know if it’s my constant use of AC these past few days that caused the battery to develop issue

There is a component inside the battery pack but they don't sell it alone,you have to change the total pack budget 300k or thereabouts

Abdul111:
Yes, sir the battery light is on

then the HV battery components at the back of the rear chair DC-DC charger is located there

cc empron

there is an issue with your DC-DC not working properly on your dashboard do you notice any red battery light?get a multimeter confirm the 12v battery if it is charging properly.

What is P0AA6 hybrid battery voltage isolation fault?The high voltage system is secluded from the low voltage system and the vehicle's frame.
Forget the long grammar,I solved this issue by probing multimeter negative and positive probes via continuity.I noticed HV battery casing and positive terminal short circuit,after opening the casing I discovered leakages from one of the battery.

My Kia Optima Turbo GDI has recently developed a knocking sound. I took it to a mechanic for inspection, and it was confirmed that the filter leading to the cylinder was blocked. Consequently, I had the cylinder and camshaft replaced. However, since then, my car has not been functioning properly. It can't accelerate beyond 40, and I have to turn off the car and restart it to get it moving again. Additionally, if I go beyond 30, the car stops. The car has been scanned, and the turbo has been checked. I was told the turbo is okay, but the car still won't accelerate beyond that limit. This issue has persisted for the past week.

if the camshaft is not the same,it can give similar fault.They need to look at it and compare together

Yesterday, I entered water with my Camry 08 and when I came out I noticed it was misfiring and then after some driving it stopped moving forward but can reverse, I had to park it.

I went to pick it up this morning it was still misfiring and I was able to move forward say 2km it stopping moving forward again. Pls how do I fix this.

I just scanned it now and I got a P0031 error code and I tried googles seems like an issue with my O2 sensor, what’s the best way to fix this ans what are the things I should look out for when the mechanic is fixing it.

looks like multiple misfires look for a good Technician,let him monitor the misfiring via Data stream

The inverter used in hybrid cars required coolant for cooling the system,a white plastic attached to the inverter act as reservoir there also electric water pump.The water pump plays a vital role for coolant circulation, checking the white plastic attached to the inverter regularly is very important and you notice coolant movement or bubbling.
Failure of water pump will damage the inverter.

First generation hybrid Lexus RX400 and Highlander hybrid share the same powetrain only body differ.

Please is it true that Suzuki parts are more expensive than Hijet?

I don't really know but I noticed the hijet is much in town so it is possible.If it is the different won't be much.

ujnwachukwu:
I want to buy a mini bus for commercial purposes but I don't know which one is durable between Suzuki, Mazda, Hijet.
Also is manual or automatic better. Please I will appreciate those who have a first hand experience or knowledge of it to throw light on this

Suzuki or hijet depends on your choice,but it seems people prefer hijet in Calabar, although I have Suzuki (in Calabar) with automatic transmission.I gave it out last month to a driver.both Suzuki and hijet have spare parts available.

2006 civic hybrid just brought few days, customer complains about 12v always run down and the car will not start next day.
We troubleshoot and discover faulty DC-DC Converter is bad, remember hybrid has no alternator.On take off performance I give it civic hybrid compare Prius.When it comes sleek, luxury and fuel economy.I will give to Prius.

Best fuel economy Hybrid cars to consider
Toyota Prius
Honda civic hybrid
Easy to maintain once you have good maintenance culture.

abiolag:

Thanks for ur prompt response.
How much do u think is a good price to get it? Someone got one for 1.8m with little work to do
I’m planning using it for Uber job and my engineer is giving me backup to go for it cos he has a good knowledge about hybrid. I just want to know if I’m going to enjoy it on the hustle of Uber plus Lagos traffic

Definitely you will,1.8m/2m is a good buy.

abiolag:

What do think about Camry hybrid Nigeria used?

Depends on the price, bought Nigeria used almost 4years ago and I used it for mobile workshop,check the high voltage battery strength,ABS light indicator on the instrument cluster.If the battery is ok,you can go for it.Better still run a full diagnostic scan on the car.

GOOD EVENING!

My Honda Civic 2009 not starting but engine rolls.
We noticed every other icons or lights on the dashboard comes up except The BATTERY LIGHT.

The battery light doesn't ON when ignition is turn on.hence,the car won't start.

My electrician has done everything possible but still not working.

The rewire Said car doesn't shock at all and fuel doesn't get to nozzlesn or lights on the dashboard came up except The BATTERY LIGHT.


What should we do?

Note: we have scanned it but The machine couldn't find any fault on the

car.The battery light is supply via PCM,Let him check PCM relay under the hood close to the battery side ,you may have a faulty PCM.

SpaceAngel:
How good is Toyota Prius plug in hybrid?

Good car if you can maintain it,it has additional lithium ion battery to drive the car EV mode.

@empron:Does hybrid cars like Yoyota Prius cut someone's petrol usage down to like 40 or 50 percent?

The ideal of producing hybrid cars is minimised air pollution and embrace green energy.Toyota Prius are really fuel economical car with 1.5L engine using atinkson cycle.
City MPG: 48
Highway MPG: 45
Combined MPG: 46
