If you are good in DIY, scan the car and monitor the fuel pump's duty cycle and fuel line pressure. At least one of those PIDs should be there. If you can, post results here. Are you sure that you are not buying wrong specification fuel pump because there are reasons why wrong specification fuel pumps don't work for a particular car. |
Hello poster, The information you provided is scanty. Rendering quality help is difficult. For how many minutes or hours after engine turn off does fan operate intermittently? Is this non-stop? Don't it happen even when engine is cold? |
Check to ensure that other cooling system components are okay(no leaks, no weak hoses, no faulty fan control, no faulty temperature sensor, no underlying over heating issue and so on). Then revert the fan back to factory working mode. Direct fan connection is overworking the fans, stresses your power supply, increases your fuel consumption and reduces your engine's life span. |
I suggest these: 1. Check ATF fluid level when cold and hot. In fact, how do you check the fluid level? 2. Get a technician that can do good diagnosis by studying solenoid logic. Make good use of your discretion so that you won't over spend before you buy new transmission though I don't think this issue is beyond fix. Regards. |
Where is your location? Bucksnony: |
Try to use your VIN to search for the ECU online. |
Where is your location? |
Horse power? |
Just a guess.... Tokumbo tires that were folded during importation ..... Then over inflation compounded it. |
I can see that bank 1 and bank 2 fuel trim values are exact. What scantool did you use? |
Check fuel pump assembly/housing. |
Electrical issues (compounded by incompetence of some mechanics) and the VR6 engine is largely not understood by many till date. In fact, direct injection engines, even the I4's. |
Nice article. |
Thanks Trygo! TRYGO: |
The blog post contains the causes of exploded cell in a hybrid vehicle and precautions to avoid such occurrence in order to avoid expensive traction battery replacement or repair. Regards. |
Remember not to overuse a low gear in order not to overheat the gear. Whenever transmission fluid replacement is due, use ONLY the recommended fluid. Regards. |
I guess you have fixed this issue since the complaint has lasted for a while. My guess is if it overheats when reverse gear is engaged for a while is that you have a clutch that engages on reverse slipping badly. |
You didn't state the period transmission stays in reverse gear before it begins to overheat. |
Please! Catcon gutting or blockage can negatively affect fuel economy. It depends on the car. |
What course did you study? |
On point! It is called coding in the computer programming world because what you type is not what the computer is using. For example, you code many strings of zeros and ones by simply typing "Hello world". What the computer basically knows is zeros and ones. Programming involves coding and other things. backbone503: |
This question ought to be specific, the answer depends on field. In information theory, coding is mapping discrete set of symbols to finite binary sequences. Things like source coding (data compression), channel coding (error control), cryptographic coding and line coding. Programming is the way others have described. For example, programming with Matlab. |
For the engine issues, obd2 diagnosis is almost inevitable. The steering issue could be as simple as a bad tire or a host of other things. You can check my signature and call for better support. |

We use prepaid meter but the problem is that the electricity is not just available at all. My pain that the things the masses should shout about and fight for, they do not. eTECTIV: |
For days, we have not had electricity where I reside. The heat has been tormenting and has had a bad toll on our wellbeing. As a nation, are we aware that outages like this come with damages to individuals and businesses, some of which have to do with life? People experience outages for weeks and months without prior notice, communication or apology. People suffer damages and loss, yet still pay for power. I am in Lakoto, Ajibode in Ibadan and everybody here has over endured. I guess that there are areas where people suffer this more. We as a people of this great nation needs to raise our voice against this wickedness. For instance, if a child suffers Meningitis as a complication from this kind of situation, the parents won't still get medical help. They will be forced to look for money to save the child and also pay electricity bill that is almost not useful. |
Can you state the issue with your car? A little information might be of great help. |
Top cylinder gasket was not properly installed or cylinder head was already cracked as a result of the overheating. flootintin: |
And while you tow, some drivers in the towed vehicle match break any how tripling the load. |
I thought all the road side mechanics are certified. Check for vacuum leak, throttle body. Scan the car. |
