agyo: The Boss
1. What's the side effect of changing my corolla headlight to the white halogen type?
2. The hoooooooo sound. I was told that it is the hub that need to be changed. Another mechanic said it is the bearing that should be "nackked" out and replaced only.
Kindly advice Boss. 1. You will not see as well as before, your headlamps are not designed for halogen bulbs.
2. Replace bearings with OEM (40k a pair) |

com1234: Pls is it normal for the timing chain to slacken and then re-tighten periodically on its own while being rotated to TDC? my engine (2ZR FE)does that and it makes cyclical. Ka...ka...ka..ka sound after running the engine without load for some time. At TDC the chain is tight but slightly away from TDC it slackens( you can depress and lift it).
Thanks I can not give an informed answer. More details required. Was the timing cover opened? Where you testing with the tensioner fitted or not? We're you turning engine clockwise? |

slimtee101: Hello. Please I drive a 2003 Honda accord EOD. I had a problem with its Steering rack which was leaking and made the steering hard. The steering pump was also making noise which I was told was caused by the leaking rack so I took it to Ladipo where it was fixed. After fixing the rack, the steering became soft but the pump was still making noise. After some weeks my mechanic advised to let him go and fix the pump in Ladipo so it wouldn't damage the rack I went to fix and regrettably, I agreed. After fixing the pump, the noise stopped but steering is hard again. Please what can I do? Replace both parts with new parts and not used parts. |

nitigriti: I've had a car repaired at Oga Gazzuzz's workshop before. It was a little bit premium like 15% higher than the regular kazeem quotes I was getting, but Oga Gazzuzz gave me strong delivery timelines, and strong guarantees on quality of the job as well as the parts used. I paid up. I had no regrets whatsoever.

TheCar: Not taking any side here.
Call 2 Uber or Taxify drivers for offline trips, you wouldn't be quoted same price for the same destination.
My point, anybody has the right to price his market according to their target audience.
It is up to you as the consumer of the product, to do your extensive research and make a choice.
Your choice of words "Selling Fake or Duping Us" might be considered offensive and wrong.
Because someone is selling cheap doesn't mean he his selling fake and because someone is selling high doesn't necessarily mean he his duping you.
Everyone has different strategies for sourcing products, so as a businessman or person, you consider your cost of product plus shipping plus profit to arrive at your selling price.
So tagging people doing business as selling fake or duping you is wrong.
Make your choice, approach the seller that meet your requirements and make your purchase.
Let us all have fun. If he owns a bicycle. |

Gazzuzz and protege carshopper should quit lying. That's the advert thread up there. It's 5000 per quartz. What dru22 is selling is a 5 quartz bottle
5X5000=25K.
And you gazzuzz quit thinking you are infallible and everything pointing out your greed is about hatred. Remember you are just a mechanic and there are 1million of you in Nigeria. business is about demand and supply. If there was no supply I wouldn't be in biz, if there was no demand I wouldn't be in biz.
Until you can take over 1m of your personal money pay for products, pay shipping and wait for returns, do not lecture me on the dynamics of busines.
Stop trolling it will do you no good.

mavinc4u: Does review affect uber drivers because am about to give -1 star to one of the drivers . you guys can turn the whole city before arriving your passenger's destination especially when one is not familiar with his/her destination. You can do better than that, you can contest the charge and get a refund (uber only) go to past trips and follow the prompts. Trips- review fare-driver took a poor route.

Car Talk › 3second Rattle At Startup Or Timing Correlation Codes? by GAZZUZZ(op): 11:36am On Jun 23, 2018 |
you startup a modern day vehicle from cold start, it rattles for a few secs (kakakakakakakakakakaa) then noise goes away like nothing happened. No performance issues, no noise. But when ever vehicle stands still inactive for about 5-6hrs and you startup again, you have the startup rattle.
If you have this problem, it is almost certain you have a defective VTC actuator.
VTC stands for Variable Timing control, As engine rpm builds, the VTC actuator - controlled by the engine computer that monitors cam position, ignition timing, exhaust emission and throttle position - advances or retards the intake cam throughout a range , optimizing engine output and reducing emissions.
So in summary, the intake camshaft is not static, but variable.
When defective it rattles for a few secs until a buildup of oil pressure keeps it stable, so basically it's inability to hold oil makes it rattle for a few seconds.
Causes of this defect could arise from the use of wrong oil grades (20w50 people unna weldone) and Defect in production.
Now here's the interesting part of this topic.
Once in a while I used to receive vehicles with very quite engines but re.tarded or advanced timing error codes on the engine computer, after advanced diagnosis we would notice that the intake VTC cam was welded firmly in place it was very common in the corrolas with the 2zr engines, and the honda with the K24Z engines, the symptoms exhibited were a terrible loss of power and correlation codes on timing.
So now that you know, before you buy that Nigerian used car, if you notice any funny timing codes and a previously breached timing cover just know that VTC might be welded in 1 position.

Golfbuff20: I need brainbox for my 2002 Toyota Landcruiser Prado, can anyone help? Post the details of the original one (Part number)oye9ja: I need help with my Camry 03. It sometimes rev itself. When in park, the rpm is at 2500-3000rpm. While in drive, it's above 1200-1500rpm. And it feels like it want to fly. I mean it literally makes the car jerk when I move from neutral to drive or neutral to reverse. A mech tried to adjust the throttle pedal, but it went back to its crazy mood with more force. It consumes lot of gas whenever it acts like this. What's the solution to this please. It is giving me headache because it consumes lot of fuel when ever it is in this terrible mood.
Thanks. Change technicians. Look for one that can use a diagnostic equipment and work on same vehicle.Bizzyliss: Boss pls anytime i apply automatic brake, the car screeches.
