Mumsluv: Thanks for replying and stating the issue. I don't really like the Corolla. What about a 2009 Honda CR-V ? Thank you 2.4liter + 70km daily? You are better with a vehicle with small engine capacity.

domin8: Good morning great people, some days ago my car a Peugeot 5008 came up with an Engine Fault and ESC warning after driving it accidently through some water on the motorway at about 60mph (96kmh). Almost immediately, I lost power and it started to struggle till I brought it to a halt.
It starts up fine but it struggles to gain power. I have done a scan myself and it shows up a P0265 code. (something about Injector 2 circuit high).
Would appreciate some pointers on how I can resolve it.
Thanks. Very simple.
Reconnect socket on injector 2.
Hopefully it's not an ecu related issue.

Please I need help with this cylinder misfire issue...I have spent a lot. what misfire do you have? Random multiple, or specific cylinder. |

GAZZUZZ: I have just been threatened!
I was told to stop work immediately and take a seven figure sum for the vehicle .
I would have loved to continue work, but unna go flog me if I no collect this money
So I will enter market again and look for another vehicle to restore. Sadly I had to decline this mouth watering offer from a friend. I hope he forgives me, i am usually not attached to machines , but last minute when it was time to hand over, I changed my mind.
Restoration continues.
Changed engine oil using Total quarts 5000 and put the vehicle on another Lagos to Delta and back trip last weekend, performed beautifully, and for the first time, it didn't short any oil! I'll have to question the previous engine oil supplier maybe it had "methanol" inside 
Ok back to where we stopped .

FredLum: Dear Nairalanders, My Toyota Sienna 2015 has been given overheating issues; had the thermostat and radiator changed and it became fine, however, I noticed milky oil in the radiator and discover too that the transmission oil has a strawberry colour, I rushed to the mechanic to get it flushed and ordered another radiator because it water got to the transmission Via the radiator. My major issue is the oil in the transmission is still milky after about 4 changes, do I drop the gearbox and completely clean it or do a continuous flush. Please it's urgent Keep flushing....
Try 3 more gallons, do not drop the transmission.

Jamie1000: Hello everyone. Please, I noticed my break oil shorting. Mechanic couldn't dictate where the leak is from. As no leak on the wheel. He suggested we open the break Master, but I have been topping up. Recently, I just decided to match on the break while car is off And pump it. I noticed fluid coming down from a hose under the break pedal. By the leg side. How do I go about this. Have any one noticed this before. Camry 04 Replace the brake master  |

NNPC imported pms with high sulphur and marketers have been advised not to sell especially marketers that loaded from that particular cargo
Some of stations affected Ardova, Enyo, northwest, total, pinnacle Not all their stations though Over 100m liters in circulation so it may take awhile to recall If a station is not selling, they are definitely affected A lot of pple have already complained that their vehicles have been damaged by the fuel already |

We have change the plug, changed the nozzle, change the coil.. yet problem persist.. and during those period it will work for a day or two before the check engine light will pop up... You will have other codes apart from misfire.

plucky16: Good day people, I just got Hyundai Accent 2015 Nigerian used. I want to service the car because the previous owner doesn't know exactly how much miles it has gone from the last service. He doesn't even know the oil the mechanic uses and I want to be on safer side. Though I was able to get through to the mechanic guy on phone and he said he uses Visco 2000 (20w-50) but the recommended one from internet says 5w-20. Pls I am confused as to what to use. I'd appreciate clarity on this. Thanks Stick with 20w50 |
