Timing marks are not set properly.

Leaks on the intake

Temp sensor 2 "located on lower right of radiator" is not connected

And a host of other problems.


If the engine does not rattle, short oil or smoke "blueish" then fixing her would make sense.

If not, channel your energies to getting a new engine.

Drive to a pit, take off your agbada go under your car with the engine running and take a look your self.

I recently had a problem$ like urs and the leak was not from the steering rack but a rusted metal pipe on steering rack.

150k, I bought the car Nigerian used.

Over due.

landerz:
Not sure, just checked google and it confirmed it is CVT transmission

Never used Abro before although I have never serviced the gear box before. Now my question is this

Should I just service with the recommended gear oil or I have to change the gear box due to the fact it may have been damaged beyond repair

What's the current mileage of your vehicle?

Back to Mazda3.

All rear suspension parts installed,

O2 sensor installed.

Codes cleared.


Drive tested, drives really smooth.

Correcting the direct fan connections and installing thermostat in the morning.

Bros, quick one,

What is the 'inner cup' (on a front wheel shaft) called?
Is that the CV joint?

CV joints (constant velocity joints) have inner and outer sides.

Inner cup is inner side.

landerz:
Ok will do that tomorrow, please do you know where to get the original oil ?

Call luvinhubby

landerz:
Ok good evening all, my honda city 2007 (auto) jerks when put on reverse gear but the forward drive is perfect. I am scared it is the gear box about to go bad so I need advice on what to do.

Check engine mounts, and change transmission oil immediately (HONDA CVTF).

Also. Scan vehicle.

Most people who use the 2007 city replace transmission oil every 30,000miles.

Toks O2 sensor supplied.

First pic Toks sensor.

Next old sensor.

I had an issue with my Toyota scion engine and after checking car talk, I contacted Gazuzz. Well, I was skeptical because I know how there are fraudsters online. In a nutshell, I took the car to him for diagnosis after which he suggested I buy another engine. He actually bought the engine and installed it. I would say he bought a superb engine which has been performing excellently.

Thanks eriam.

Hello great people,

When it rains , or when I go to the carwash, my car (Honda Accord, Babyboy) fills with water. Have practically checked everywhere no leakage discover. The car has open roof could it be the culprit... I never make use of the open roof for once. Is always closed. It kinda frustrating cos of the odd smells oozing outta the soak rug.

Open the sunroof, there are water channels that are blocked use a small stick and unblock them.

Hello Gurus in the house,

I need help with my car. The engine revs up and down all by itself. The effect is exactly like someone gently pressing down on the gas pedal and then letting up, over and over. This effect is most notable when the car is parked, but also occurs when stopped for red lights, or even during low-speed driving (under 35 mph or so).

The car in question is a Nissan X-Trail 2008 model.

@moderator, pls unban morningsta. not sure what offense was committed seriously.

Have you scan the said vehicle?

That's why they ban ogogoro

Elshanautos will be here soon to help you out.

nas00:
Thanks bro!

..but of course, I know a Mobil station is the place to go.

The problem is that I have not seen any Mobil filling station since I got to Enugu!

That was why I asked for help in the first place. So, if you know one or two Mobil

stations in Enugu you can direct me to, that's all I need.

Ask any commercial transporter.

I got it in ageege oshodi traffic at the oshodi end at 1,000 brings back some old skills.

irayanshak:
Guys thanks for the infos giving us here @Kashif, Gazzuzz and co. The problem with my 2005 peugeot307 is that sometimes it doesn't pickup when trying to accelerate after decelarating. And before this usually hapens it makes a sudden jerking sound on accelarating, and the D on the dashboard will change to an S and a * before becoming a rectangular line. This happens more often when am going uphill, its quiet frustrating my fellow nairalanders pls help with advice and wia I can fix this. This also appears on the monitor,"boite devitesse motor defaillante" which offcourse is in french and it means gearbox failing after checking the translation online.

Emperoh:
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.

Like brand new.

bravolad:
Boss @Gazzuzz, I'm interested. How do you acchieve this to ensure they are evenly resurfaced especially for those of us in Abuja?

Well documented here

abatically:
The 3 months thingy is outdated bro. Show me a modern car that manufacturers reccomend oil change every 3 months provided u use recommended oil. I use synthetic oil for my engine. I do engine change every 4,500 miles even though Honda says 7,500 is OK. Mind u, 4,500 -5,000 miles equals 7,200km. So if I don't travel that distance in 3 months why should I waste money? Its 4,500 miles or at least 9 months whichever comes first.

why the waste? Squeeze in at least 6k miles or 12months.

Hello NL, I drive a Nissan X-Trail 2008 model. I noticed this morning while warming the car that it now fires /raises it-self on and off.

I will very much appreciate expert advice from people with experience please.

I wish to know the cause and possible solution.

Regards.
