Hi Gazzuzz,

What is the cost implication of converting my Volkswagen Passat from petrol to CNG?

I'll be happy to hear from you.

Victorprofan:
So I have a Hyundai sante fe 2007 3.3ltrs engine.
Each time I accelerate to 20km/HR or more, I get a lot of vibrations on the car,felt strongly at the steering.
The vibrations reduces at higher speeds.
And also wen I carry passengers/loads, any small pothole or rough road I enter, it will seem as if the car isn't balanced anymore and tilts towards that direction a bit.

Any help from d house?🙏

So I'm still having issues with this sound.
A little background: So my k24 on my 2005 Honda Accord is making this devilish sound as seen on the video above. This sound started after replacing my timing chain, but something happened that day. The job was done by a kazeem (that's what is available where I am), but I monitored every step of the way. I examined the timing accessories and set the timing myself and he just did the loosening and tightening. So I can confidently say that nothing was out of place there.
When the job was basically done, I allowed him to install the accessories and then the belt, but that turned to be a big mistake. The dude installed the alternator with only one bolt. On driving off and testing, there was no sound even after warming up. But suddenly the belt snapped and of course, the alternator was the issue cos it was twisted.
After fixing the alternator bolts, I couldn't get the correct belt size. The one I got with number 6pk1780 was too tight, but out of desperation we forced it in. It was after this belt wahala that this sound started.
Even after installing the correct sized belt, that devilish sound has remained.
This sound is only present at idle and in gear and even louder when the fans kick in. So basically loaded engine at idle. And when this happens, there's significant vibration. My idle remains between 750 and 850rpm. The sound is completely absent when the engine is at idle without any load. It is also absent when you rev the car eve a little bit. It is absent while driving. Car has full power.
I initially thought it was coming from inside the engine. I replaced the timing chain tensioner and readjusted my valves. But while doing that, there was absolutely no sign of metal to metal contact in the timing chain or cams. I replaced the drive belt tensioner. I removed the water pump but couldn't find any sign of damage physically and functionally (the bearing appears smooth and not noisy at all), so I put it back.
I recently noticed that the sound was louder from the passenger tire well than from the top of the engine, making me suspect it's from a lower placed component.
Who has experienced this sound before? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Cc: GAZZUZZ etc al.

Good evening Gazzuzz and other life saving tech gurus in the house.
My car's brake/tail light has refused to go off. I have to remove battery head to avoid drain.

I scanned with my Bluetooth scanner and got the response below.

Where is the particular switch mentioned located
What should we do??

Vehicle stuck in park, brake lights permanently on.


Parts used.

₦300 slippers (you get 6 stoppers )

I noticed I should have added more detail to the video, sadly not enough space to go under the dash and film at same time, kindly use your imagination, I will find a brake lever system some time in the future to show how to install stopper.

Nice ride. Money is good.

Good morning everyone.
I own a Camry 2008.
It has a fuel tank size of 70L.
I noticed it consumes too much fuel.

On a full tank till the amber fuel light, it did about 190 miles and that’s like 11 mpg compared to the 25mpg -30mpg as recorded by Toyota.


I have no check engine light
Spark plugs intact
02 sensors working too.
Catalyst intact too.


What could be the problem?
This worries me a lot.


I await your response 🙏🏾
