Boss Gazzuss,
Please help a brother.

I have 2004 i4 Honda Accord that vibrates @ idle, especially when Gear is engaged and AC turned on. The car does not vibrate till the Gear is engaged or AC turned on.

The below summarizes the problem:

Idle @ Startup @ 1000rpm, No Vibration
RPm drops to 760 when gear is engaged, Car Vibrates seriously @ idle
Rpm drops to 500 when AC is turned on, vibration is mild but car moves with difficulty from idle
The car drives very fine on the highway

My mechanic (Obviously a Kazeem) could not solve the problem and i had to resort to the internet where i found that the problem could be a faulty IACV.

Got some tools to disconnect the throttle body and discovered that the IACV was blocked by a piece of polythene. The polythene was removed and IAC cleaned and connected to the engine. The result was an excessively high idle speed of 4000 rpm.

Kazeem was invited to check the car and he suggest we replace the throttle body with IACV.

The throttle body was replaced and the problem was partially solved, the car does not vibrate anymore but the has a surging Idle speed of 1500 @ cold start. It takes about 7 minutes for the rpm to drop to 1000, sometimes i have to restart the engine to correct this anomaly.

Unfortunately, the partial solution was cut short after about one month month, the idle speed @ cold start surged to 4000 and refused to come down. Mr Kazeem had to block it with some polythene and ive not been enjoying the car since then.

I have conducted a scan on the car the result is P0325 Powertrain Knock Sensor 1 Circuit.

I would like to know if this code is related to the filing IACV before throwing more money into the Lagoon.

Thank you.
you bought a bad throttle body.

P0325 will not cause excessively high or low idle

Correct talk! But a friend of mine bought Kia in Nigeria for uber and the car only lasted for 6 months before he started having issues with the vehicle. He had to dump that car because it was no longer economical having it on the road.
Again it all comes down to luck when buying some of these used cars in Nigeria.
was it serviced by a parrot?

Was it inspected before purchase by a parrot?

vehicle selection is a job on its own.

FLEET XPERTZ once paid me to diagnose a vehicle before they accepted it, car was looking Sharp and engine sounded nice. In my report I stated that engine was bad and driver should not be driven above 100km/hr.

Next day engine knocked.

there is nothing spiritual about selecting a sound vehicle, it is a skill.

OK. What if there's much traffic along the line, you know Uber doesn't add much on traffic.
The 350kms you did and made such money, was it on uber alone?
uber alone. More responsible riders on uber. Got a lot of tips for ingenuity.

I have a 2005 Corolla and would like to partner with uber as a vehicle owner. I'll be needing a driver.

Please can someone explain to me how the partnership really works.

Also can I have the driver pick up the car in the morning and return in the evening lets say 7pm so I can drive it back from work?
Bros you neva ready for this business.
How do you and driver calculate fuel?

T[b]his 2008 or 2009 Honda city. It a good car with good fuel economy.[/b] Did you do only taxify or with Uber. How many trips did you do on uber that day.
I need to confirm something. I'm using 2001 Camry for Uber but the fuel consumption is discouraging. Besides short trips on Uber don't also encourage the hussle as some of them will be giving you N500 or N600 after uber has taken theirs.
550km on a 40liter tank is obtainable.

God bless you.

First of all the equipment was bought brand new!!
And does not require and repairs at present.

from what I can see in pics the parts that would easily wear out are all mechanical parts and can be locally fabricated.

I think Corolla 2008 for North American market is not the same for European market.
production date of the 02 went all the way to 08 in some vehicles, so it might be the old rugged corrola.

But it could be this.

Greetings to everyone,

Please I need advise o; right now I have a 2008 corolla, highway mileage of 140,000 km, in a very good shape and maintenance through Toyota up to date. My plan is to ship it to Nigeria from Canada before year end and register the vehicle with ulber for a weekly pay of 25k.

My question is, if this car meets ulber standards and if a driver will be willing to pay 25K weekly?
from my experiments and rough calculations it is good to use a 2008 corrola, but you can still maximize your capital and get double the return on your investment.

Let me explain further.

2008 corrola, market price about 3m.

Kia rio 2007-2009 market price 1.3-1.5m max

Delivery per week on both vehicles = same amount.

Why not sell corrola and buy 2 other brands not necessarily rio? wink

Guys you can do uber with any car,
as long as it's clean, comfortable and has some distraction. you also need the right attitude.

Introducing my Avensis 1998 2002 wagon.

From 6pm- 12mid night most days I drive to the airport and I get trips, and if you see the expression on the faces of passages when they see me (it's all joy) car was designed to haul luggage.

Distraction

Overall good ratings. Just place A.Y live into the DVD and they will all laugh to their destinations. I wanted to sell this baby before, but since the experiment, she's a keeper, a backup car for when any of my drivers needs a repair job. No downtime wink

Whenever I have a problem with my car, I research via Google, those white mechanics post all information online free.
