yes i have experience i have owned up to 3 peugeots and my hubby is an engineer and he has the scanner and all tools but most of the times he knows what exactly is wrong with the car merely by looking at the visible and audible problems "black smoke and fuel consumption" was the way he identified the problem!, he did his training and worked in an auto repair workshop in the united kingdom for about 12 years precisely NB. NOT ALL CODES THAT COMES UP ON THE ECU AFFECTS THE CAR SO BADLY LIKE THIS ONE AND ITS QUITE EASY TO IDENTIFY! I.E THERE MIGHT BE A CEL WITH NO SYMPTOMS AT ALL EXAMPLES ARE 1. OXYGEN SENSOR 2.CHARCOAL CANISTER ISSUES 3. EGR (EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE AND MANY MORE

AdelaLee:
before you replace it you should find out the cause of the problem VIA. A computer based or sophisticated scan tool for more elaborations or other codes that the phone couldn't pick , because if you buy another one and fix like that, it will get damaged again, so its off no use, check for other codes like an 02 sensor code or a burning rich code nozzles and 02 sensors are liable to damage a catalyst if it has a slight overlooked issue, it causes the catalyst to heat up and thats what leads to the damage of the cat inside a cat is a "charcoal like" coating, so when it heats up too much due to the problems above it causes it to burn cos of the excess heat INFO:02 SENSORS and CATALYST plays a huge part in car engine cumbustion!

4llerbuntu:
Please oga mi, for clarity this is what the scanner shows.

Is it the same error or different things?

EDIT:. I found out that the evap code may be due to overfilling the fuel tank + dodgy tank cap. Both of which I confirm may have happened today.

Is this probable or is just wash

Please any pointers?

Can the catalytic converter just be clogged?

ephbe:
Good morning Gazzuz

My Kia Rio 2006 is very sluggish at accelerating, even keke napep could do better. The speed buildup is very very slow hence embarassing when moving from point 0.
It however picks up pace eventually after reving to about 80km/hr.
Kazeem said I should change gear but I dont believe so because I just changed complete engine.

please what could be the problem.

I'm sure you know how to do a big company advert and you want me to patronize me to do a better job for me, I am so sorry boy, the vacancy is closed. You can still make one for me with all my credentials and I might do a rethink. Last advice, go and get busy with your time, time is money ask Dangote. I am sure you are not older than the boy in my workshop who converts two right hand Toyota vehicles to left hand to suit the Nigerian driving system, he worked on these two cars in one day, something Oladipo main market will take one week to fix one car, and you have the guts and time to face this blessed direction with your ugly face. My brother just scroll down and walk away to the left hand side quickly and don't come back here again. I pray you take my advice so that people as old as my grandfather will never say Nigerian youths are lazy.

PrimadonnaO:
Awesome advice!

But do you know it's a lot easier for a man to be very deliberate about the kind of woman he gets into a relationship with? Different women have got different backgrounds, and also differing needs. It is already an established fact that women like money... even the men know this. They'd always expect some form of gifting or assistance from whoever they are in a relationship with. Preach from now till tomorrow, it won't change.

The best thing therefore is to be careful about who you date. If you date a girl that attends weddings every now and then, you'll buy lots of aso-ebis If you date the type that has some type of skin and likes to dress up, etc. She'll surely expect bills from you.

Date a slay queen... Lol. Sorry for you.

Just know the lifestyle and needs of a girl you thinking about dating before you commit. It would save you headaches. Some guys just date girls that are too flashy and needy for their level and they come online to cry.


Truthfully, it's the easiest way to manage this situation. Don't date a person who has lots of wants and needs that are beyond your capacity. She doesn't become your responsibility but she'd have expectations of you. Most women are like that...

There's the class of girls with serious entitlement mentality, too. They ask for everything and anything without shame. If you find someone like that, better stay away o.

But most importantly, know when to put a brake on it. I'm a girl, but I found it highly enervating that a guy finished his savings on a girl. Like, why?

Hi folks, I'm in need of a 2009 Kia cerrato auto gearbox. Car is the Dana spec Kia bought brand new in Nigeria. The cerrato had a minor accident which affected the transmission hose causing fluid leak and subsequent demise of the original auto gear box.

AdelaLee:
bros, go and have the airflow checked! Greedy people on this forum just want to open market on ur head by asking silly questions to determine the way they want to deal with u, wicked nigerians!, airflow is less than 10k, thats usually the culprit!, black smoke indicates incomplete combustion!

sholarb:

Please what is the recommended engine oil for the 2015 Hyundai Sonata?

PuZZyNegro:
Please, is it advisable to buy Tokumbo cars already imported in Nigeria or to buy and ship down here.

I am asking because of the term "landing cost".

I tried buying a car from one of these auction sites through a nairaland agent.

The total calculated cost of having a 2007 Toyota corolla handed to me was 2.9-3M

Registration cost and other miscellaneous costs not included.

There was one that the total value on the Auction site was 900k but when the agent was done calculating everything to get the car to me, we ended at 2.6M

What could have happened? Which is the best?

Please help as I am planning on heading to Apapa next week to search for one to buy.

I understand that the cost here is between 1.9M-2.2M
