My mechanic advised that instead of changing the rocker arm, I should change the top Cylinder.

I even went to where Honda parts are sold to ask for Rocker Arm seller said the same thing about purchasing the top Cylinder

jojomario:
which of the Nigeria spare part market you think I should get it and at what range?

jojomario:
which one is jdm sir?

jojomario:
It was fixed yesterday evening around 6. I have not driven up to 5hrs. It stays normal when on 1.whenever it's below 1 like 0.5, it's vibrates.

jojomario:
He confirmed one coil to be bad. I got another one. But engine now come up with white smoke. He's suggested a bad piston ring on the cylinder 3.

jojomario:
Good evening house. My car vibrates a little and start blinking the check engine light. I stopped by for rewire and mechanic to have a check. I was told the line 3 on the cylinder is faulty .

I was told the issue is from my cylinder and not nozzle, plug nor coil. My mechanic worked on the cylinder, he showed me the line 3 side being oily.Replacing 2 valves on the line 3 and grinding the valves and cylinder. I changed the plugs to grade 1 tokunbo. After coupling, and starting the car for a long time. I realised if I'm on a spot on D it vibrates, returning to N, it will be normal. If I put ac on D while on a spot, the engine might want to go off but if I put on N, it normalizes.

Please, what could be the cause?
It's a camry 08 2AZ

oneitalia:
Please how do I explain this to my mechanic in a simplest form ?

MFME7:
Hello all.

My brake keeps vibrating when I press it. Mecho said it's the brake rotors, that I need to change them. Checked them and one is worn.

Now my issue is the guy is saying not to buy new rotors but tokunbo ones. Said new ones will be 'eating' break pad and get worn faster than tokunbo.

Pls is this true? Car is an 03 Toyota matrix

hopsydboss:
Can someone recommend a decent car scanner please.

Thanks everyone.

Greetings!!

Please my Toyota Camry 1997/1998 is giving me headache. If I park the car in an open space where there's direct sunlight or if I drive it for let's say close to an hour, the mileage digits will clear off, disappear and the gear will no longer select until I drive to where there's shade and park for an hour before the mileage digits comes up again. If not, i will just be firing gear one all along.

What's the solution please?

Bengurion1:
Many thanks kingreign for all you do.

I have a Honda Accord 05, V6.
Once I turn on the AC it begins to overheat.
Radiator has been checked for leaks, radiator cap replaced and some leakages detected along the thermostat system replaced as well.
Still it’s overheating.

Please advise on next steps.

My MDX is the Canadian. I will try the rear again.

Please I can't find the auxiliary port in my MDX 2008. I checked the central console armrest. This is what I saw. (Attached picture).

Though there are some ports facing the back seat below the rear ac vents. Not working with the auxiliary.

Mrphilia:
Good Day House. Today I went to replace my faulty kickstarter. The Rewire guy dipped his hands into the brake fluid compartment to get oil to lubricate the key starter before putting it in. After the replacement I noticed that the check engine light that was always permanently on has disappeared and now the brake light is permanently on. What could have caused this? It's a lexus Rx 330

Peterlove11:
This is amazing.....can it be replicated on car headlamps

KelvinCoaster:
This is the reason why there are so many 'educated illiterates' roaming the streets!

KelvinCoaster:
You are absolutely wrong.

Using a reducing agent to treat an oxidized material does not guarantee that such material will return to its original state. Chemistry 121.

quam9997:
That’s the area I noticed the leakage and where he said rubber is.

soviete:
it doesn't necessarily mean he is speeding na... If na 4 speed automatic transmission 3500rpm no go even go far

FineUsername:
You have never revto 3500 or above?

FineUsername:
Good morning Gazzuzz et al.

I noticed I can't accelerate my car above 3500rpm, once at 3500rpm it starts to jerks (softly) and I will have to free the throttle a bit. Honda Civic 2007.

Current error code found this morning: 0522. Please see pic below for previous error codes but they didn’t show up this morning.

Thanks.

treatise:
Can regular use of the air conditioner use be a way of "running it hard"? I regularly drive to office and within town with room to fire the car hard.

ReformerD:

Good day Boss

I use Mobil 1 (30k naira) for my Corolla 2009 recommended. The issue here is that I don't usually drive the car, I only drive it twice a week for a short distance.
So at the end of 6months, I normally discover that I only drove about 1500miles, which dosent worth the money paid. I don't know if I should be using Mobil Super of 13k naira

What advice would you give me pls

ReformerD:
I can switch from Mobil 1 to super 2000 5w-30 without any issues right ?

Dear car enthusiasts,

I have a Toyota matrix 2006, at 80km/hr & above, there is this humming sound from under d hood, very distinct at d persengers side, i already replaced the suspected damaged hub (complete unit with bearing).

Humming sound has reduced but still being heard at high speed, i am thinking it's from the power steering, the oil seems dirty & contaminated.

I am planning to flush with the attached atf.
Please i need advice, are these atf recommended?

Godsown0:
Yes
