Good day Gazzuzz.

Is the Kia Rondo 2008 model with the 2.4l engine a good buy (reliability, availability of parts and maintenance costs)

How does it compare to the 2006 Mazda 5 ?

Many thanks.

Please can you recommend a technician that can reprogram TPMS for a 2009 Hyundai Sonata on the Island? I replaced the tires and wheels with a set I bought separately from the car, and I read online that it has to be reprogrammed for the car to detect the new sensors. The new tires and sensors that came with the wheels look pretty new, so I want to give the sensors a chance before attempting to replace them.

Chief plz what do I do? I ran into a heavy flooded area with my car my car Lexus es330 and unfortunately my exhaust drank most of the water now my exhaust is filled with water that on acceleration so much water comes out from the exhaust tail pipe. I'm worried about the condition of my cat, to make things worst the sound of my engine is not the same again. Not like the current sound is bad but it's no longer soundless as it used to be.
Plz what do I do chief?
Tnx

Let's review expenditure so far before we start the vehicle.


1. Vehicle price. N820,000

2. Tow truck. N25,000

3. miscellaneous N16,500

4. Engine N220,000

5. Lubrication. N 22,000


Total N1,103,500

Deduct the price of scrap parts N97,000

New total 1,006,500

Not so bad

good night, we continue tomorrow.

ignition on, vehicle in ready mode HV inverter kicks in, engine tries to crank, but very weak start, Displays error on cluster, "Check Hybrid system' I bring out Scanner and scan codes and we have a 3 codes.

1. P0517 Battery temperature sensor circuit high

2. P3000 Battery Control system

3. P0A80 Replace Hybrid battery pack (Pending)

For error 1, on the accessory battery is a temp sensor, might have fallen off at some point, but basically it's missing, vehicle would start and run without it, it is an inexpensive part I can pick up in the market at any point in the time.

The real Evil is the P3000 and the P0A80.

For very obvious reasons (vehicle mileage, age and a thrown rod) the vehicles Hybrid battery is weak and possibly failing, each time accessory battery is installed and brake pedal depressed, the Hybrid engine (in the past) tried to start a frozen engine, I am sure this happened multiple times. Also battery packs are known to Fail all the time, but can be repaired and years of life gotten from the repair.

To start a an engine which has been in use is very easy, it starts with a very short pulse, but starting an engine which has been on the ground and has been exposed to the elements is an uphill task that would require a long crank, and honestly hybrid generators do not do long cranks, they do very short bursts to start the engine.

Now here's the dilemma, Hybrid battery barely has enough juice for a start, after resetting system a couple of times we got an "almost start" condition but the battery just does not have enough juice to pull it off.

With each try, we get less success until we finally Gave up.

vehicle needs a fully charged Hybrid battery that can withstand extended crank to start engine.

Options available.

1. Buy a used hybrid battery pack

2. Rebuild current battery pack

3. Recharge current battery pack and remove current engine into any 2az-applicable gasoline vehicle startup engine in vehicle to build up compression and improve start conditions, then bring back into hybrid vehicle.

4. Rebuild/Recharge Current battery pack and try and start engine.

5. Sell for parts and call it a day

What do you think I did?

jboixxx:
As per the battery price, do you mean N250k or N25k?

obekediamondfuto:
when disassembling do we need to be cautious of certain points to avoid electrostatic discharge?

cause that HV certainly means High Voltage abi?
before person go shock himself to the other side and make headlines!

Excuse Sir, my calculator is malfunctioning oooo.

Follow Come Engine mileage was 127,000 miles.

Engine you bought was about 120,000 miles (mileage) by checking the vin tag.
