kkon: crv 08 and it's when I turn the steering either right or left that I hear the knock noise. We can only guess, no one can accurately advice you on what to do. Proper suspension diagnosis required so you do not throw parts at the problem.
If I was to guess I would say your upper strut mounts might be failing or not installed properly. |

BABAKAZZO: I need urgent advice on this - I am very close in buying a Toyota Camry envelope light v6, Nigeria used, very clean, working OK @ 800k but my mechanic advised me not to buy it because it is v6. pls Mr Gazzuzz, I need a second opinion on this. Thanks Not a very fuel efficient vehicle. You are better off with the 4cylinder, it has better resale value too. |

seunpinky: drove d car in d morning to work, went for lunch wit d car after lunch car refused to start but all dashboard lights were coming up but car just wudnt start. tried jump starting d car by changing the battery with dat of anoda car,car Stl doesn't start. called a rewire who checked it and said it wz d kick dat wz bad. rewire fixed d kick and d car comes to life,however, there wz smoke from the fan belt area immediately the car started. the rewire said the car compressor has freezed( dat d car a/c is bad) and should b replaced Tho d a/c was working perfectly Dat morning. Let's understand something together, a frozen compressor and a frozen compressor pulley are not the same thing.
Frozen compressor is a situation there the Engine would function perfectly, but when the a.c is turned on, it would cause the engine to stall, as a result of the inability of the compressor to turn via engine torque.
Frozen compressor pulley, weather or not a.c is turned on, the pulley remains frozen and will not turn and would cause engine to stall.
Which of these 2 symptoms does your compressor present sir? |

when you have a blow out, push sharply on the accelerator first to stabilize car (sounds silly but it works) then gradually let go and allow it coast before stepping on the brakes to bring it to a halt. |

lorhema: Thanks for your response Gazzuzz. In 2013, the exhaust the car came with was discarded because it was badly rusted. The work was carried out at the automedics workshop at Akoka. Thanks for telling us where to get the parts. We'd appreciate your directing us to the technician you know. Merci beaucoup. The catalysts on Bank1 and 2 should be taken down and inspected. They usually die out as a pair, it is also possible there might be an exhaust leak that could trigger the P0430 code. All angles should be explored before any parts are acquired. |

lorhema: Good morning Gazzuzz. Please help us solve our problem. We are scared of being eaten alive by the mechanics here. Our 2004 Toyota Sienna LE 3MZ-FE has a dashboard light which is now constantly on when the car is being driven. My dear says its been like this for about a year.The manual says the car should be taken to the dealer. We did a scan and got the reading:PO430 and PO303. Please advise on the meaning of these readings, the action to be taken and the availability and cost of spares if required. The car was bought and worked on just before we left Lagos in 2013( we changed the silencer then)and we have only serviced it regularly since then. We're in Jos and haven't linked up with a trusted mechanic. Now we need to, we need education so we are not taken for a couple of elderly fools. Thank you for helping us. P0430 catalytic converter bank 2 (facing radiator) below threshold (faulty most likely burnt out) P0303 misfire on cylinder 3.
I need repair history on the work done on the exhaust before I can continue giving advice on the P0430.
For the P0303 replace all sparkplugs (if they are bad) clean out all injectors.
For a technician in JOS there seems to be 1 very closely let me research.

People don't understand that wicked dealers are repackaging tired naija used cars as toks. Then they will term the honest dealers wicked, only to come and inundate us with numerous codes and complaints when they buy from the unscrupulous elements. Most times they do not have custom duty |

Emassive: But our car ODO reads in KM not Miles right? If so,
* lets agree you said every 80, 000miles which should mean 130, 000km ... *If the odo is in KM, I imported the car at 120k km. Which means am due for a change at the current 151, 220 as we speak.. Help a brother pls sorry, a blunder there. 80,000km. Change intervals which is approximately 48,000miles. @ 151,000 you are most certainly ready for a new belt, or you just got one before the car was shipped in. |
