Ahahah, 9ja cha , they are very inovative. But mechanic sha are too quick to co ndem Engines in 9ja to quick, in teh US amd Europe the o nly reason ur Engine is condemned mainly is due to labour cost.People should try and buy original parts for thier cars as well.

erico2k2:
VIN would not tell you the true state of an Engine, it would give you details about the car in general.If I change my Engine, it wont come up in VIN check rather in service history.
I think you should be more hands on and know waht you want, I have been in the Ladipo mkt, these guys turn on you like flies o n dead meat.

Good evening house! Pls my car has been giving me ish since two weeks ago now and these "trial and error mechanics we have in ph won't just help issues as they keep siphoning me. It's about my 2006 corolla(Automatic transmission),it jerks as I accelerate to a higher gear especially when it's changing to gear two and it's really disturbing me especially as mechanics keep handling my car but to no avail,engine sits have been changed,gear oil have been changed and filter cleaned,nozzle and plugs serviced yet to no avail.

Please expert in the house or anyone who has had such disturbing experience should pls put me through. God bless you all

Trip A is just a trip counter, the odometer is different but accessible from same place. Push the knob to cycle display through trip A, Trip B and others until odometer displays.

If CEL came on after driving then the problem must have been existing before the car was shipped or a part was stolen. Its possible battery terminals were disconnected during shipping which cleared the codes. Some more serious codes will show even before engine starts while others will show after driving.

Maintenance reqd light means the car is due for service or the car was serviced without resetting the light.

not a stupid purchase, I'm sure u bought it cheap. you got what u bargained for.
secondly dont get any ecu swap done just yet. I had an issue sometime ago, Gazuzz helped me solve it in proxy.....ur exact issue, car doesn't get past 3rd gear...Toyota calls it limp mode to avoid destroying ur excessive pinging due to lack of input from the knock sensor so that ur ecu can retard or increase ur valve timing. problem was the knock sensor as ur scanner rightly indicated. confirm wiring and harness from ecu to knock sensor, I'm guessing urs is 2azfe like mine, get some technical help and supervise it. I'm pretty sure the problem centers around the knock sensor. in my case I'm pretty good with diy and have all necessary tools now multimeter included. got the wiring diagram of ecu and color coding and traced the whole sh......t.

PS I swapped ecu, purchased another gearbox..... before I realized I had more technical knowledge than the kazeems (like 6of them... some from aba , Onitsha)

TRYGO:
@Gazzuzz. I think now you're getting g what I'm saying!
I think that's another option you've pointed out now.
If they refused you getting the Vin, you run away then?! Similar to what you do when trying to buy any car from the USA, or Nigeria. You check the vin, and run a Carfax report. But I hope you know often times, you've got to retrieve such Vins clandestinely?

Hello Gazzuzz, I need your help. I did a scan and got this messages :

@Gazzuzz. I halfway, agree with you. What you've just explained is a plus, if you're ordering from the USA, or any online company.

That you can also do with Carfax.
Can you always be specific on what points of the article you're always responding to, so that others can be more enlightened?

Are you saying if you're buying a used engines e from the automotive market in a place like Ladipo in Lagos, you'd ask the engine seller for the Vin number and all that? If that's what you're saying, they won't take you serious. That means, you'd have to wait for ages to get through with them their.

¶¶¶I think I'd change the topic to: HOW TO BUY A USED ENGINE IN LADIPO, LAGOS.

PS: You can ask anyone on this platform, whose gone purchase engine in Ladipo before.

Wherever that engine comes from, whether Asia, Middle East, or North America, as far as its being containerised to Ladipo, Lagos, there's no other way you can ascertain the condition of that engine, except following some of the methods I have highlighted, and if possible, using a compression tester too.

TRYGO:
OK. Nice feedback. We'd look for time to send our responses on autos someday.
@Gazzuzz. I think you're terribly mistaken in your analysis.

You mustn't give me a thumps up, if I don't respond on the threads you've talked about. I
don't think I need such a score from you. If the time permits, I'd respond to stuff I see, or better still, you could kindly just send me any link of car issues you think I should respond on.

¶¶¶¶¶
PS: Responding to such threads, does not necessarily mean you're competent. In some instances it could show some sort of competency. But don't always assume some kinda response on such threads, are some form of approval rating.¶¶¶¶¶¶

Here's a scenario. You're in a class, with some dude, and each time the lecturer asks a ?, you're always the guy that answers the every of the s. In that instance, in the class, you might be tempted to make people believe that its in the answering of the lecturers questions, that shows that you're such a brilliant guy, and all of your dudes are dullards. When examination comes, you might(probability) pass the exam. But when the results of the exam finally comes out, you might say, "oboy, na me go pass the exam". You'd discover that those dudes in class you called dullards, outperformed you. ¶¶¶¶¶


As regards the wire mesh catalytic converter thing, I think you still ha e some problems deciphering in details what was done there.

######You can still just reread that thread.
The Ford Explorer 2004 V8 has being fixed some three months ago. I would definitely write on the cause effect of what really caused that engine to SEIZE, and perhaps, proffer some recommendations.########

The 149..blablabla thing. That, you already know wasn't deliberate. That was supposed to be F, and not C degrees. Except maybe you wanna say, you're a perfect human being. But for me, if there's a mistake in that article, would accept and make corrections.

My responses on that issues isn't ....as you might be insinuating.

Responding for two days? This in my view is ridiculous. I don't think I need to respond to that. But I think it would be cool you know it took those days you alleged.

Want to know the reason for the "two" days you've alleged? ITS SIMPLY BECAUSE THERE WASN'T POWER.

When would Hyundai stop putting calculator screen in their cars and start using good screens or DVD screens like their mates?

See as them just spoil interior of this fine car now with that nonsense screen.

Happy sales op

Get that Rewire Shut by firing squad... You can check your alterternator by putting a metal object beside it while the vehicle is off if it will magnet on the metal object then it's bad but if not then it's OK. Run a Diagnoses to ascertain the fault as there are many things issues that could cause that happening t

Pot calling kettle black


















Proper way to check a charging system is using a volt meter.
