Not the Catcon? That's strange then. What's that in the pix with the oxyacetylene flame welding on it?
with all this noise, you don't know the location of the catalytic converter?



This is not the catalytic converter
www.nairaland.com/attachments/4573331_tmpcam2047656769_jpeg34e2d45fac1287f573e839fda162b9bd

This is not supposed to be placed any where inside the exhaust system
www.nairaland.com/attachments/4573330_tmpcam98895415_jpegb62a2a492055d2a501fa722bd36eee42


This is are the catalyst pots of that vehicle.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/4580474_images11_jpeg0a11a8ec37620e47e4feab56245e56df


Based on all the noise you have been making, iv been able to understand what happened.

You found this

www.nairaland.com/attachments/4573328_tmpcam23553192_jpeg31c69859260ec6a114df7f29031ff45c

possibly inside this

www.nairaland.com/attachments/4573331_tmpcam2047656769_jpeg34e2d45fac1287f573e839fda162b9bd

Cleared the contents and put wire mesh inside.

That was wrong. Particles of the catalyst have broken up and traveled in the direction of flow of exhaust, they got trapped in the rear pot, all you had to do was clear the contents, there would have been no extra noise. I have been there and done that.



You were supposed to inspect these properly before driving the vehicle www.nairaland.com/attachments/4580474_images11_jpeg0a11a8ec37620e47e4feab56245e56df and handing over. You were also supposed to recommend a removal if found to be blocked.

you already answered teh question above,why did you replace the materials inside teh catcon with mesh in the first place?
Answer Sluggishness right? blockade right?
Now same thing will happen when you fit in mesh and it will suffocate the engine, just imagine you are on a thread mill and someone close one of your nose

[b]Mmm is a very big sin in Christianity because it is demonic and promoted by gongon, an infernal demon residing in the 6th princinth of hell.
This demon is a spoiler with 7 heads each in the shape of demonic animals. It was this very same demon that helped the principality called prince of Persia to hold the prayers of Daniel from reaching God for days. During the conquest of heaven when the integrity of the throne of jehovah was challenged, it was this demon that helped lucifer pin down jehovah on the ground and stole some of the ethereal essence from him making lucifer resistant to any attach from jehovah and restricting jehovahs power to the heavens and physical earth.
Lucifer is preparing for the final battle and is gathering resources and anybody that assist mmm succeed is just contributing to the battle against the almighty. Though I know that the age of jehovah is over and lucifer will defeat him and lock Christ in the bottomless pit, I still advise you people to stand with jehovah and stop mmm. In Jesus name I beg[/b]

I contacted the man I bought it from he said he bought it new in gbagada Nigeria so it doesn't have custom papers. What should I do.
If eventually you are stopped by the relevant bodies in charge of checking for duty, you will have to prove that your vehicle was supplied by Dana motors, Stallion motors etc. failure to do that, you might be on your own

Hello Gazzuzz

I am having a few issues with my car. Honda CRV 2002. I hear this growling noise when i accelerate either in reverse or drive. It comes from the power steering, compressor, tensioner area. I can't pin point the exact cause. Beside my serpentine belt is off by one thread but i doubt if that is the cause.

Also there is loss of power and i have a "Pending Code" - P0172 - System too rich. My A/F sensor reads about 0.6V. Short term and long term trims are in the negatives.


i need epp oooo
Did you replace engine recently?

Hi Gazzuzz and all the experts in the house,

I use a 2005 toyota avensis, the ac works very well and cools well even in hot weather but anytime the compressor is working it makes a grinding noise . Should I be worried, is my compressor failing? other than this issue the ac is in good working condition.
unfortunately yes. Lack of lubrication, or high mileage. You could try checking if the compressor has oil in it.

Hi guys, recently I noticed that my wife's toyota matrix started consuming a lot of petrol and you can smell petrol odor inside the car and also outside the car just around the fuel tank. This happens only while driving or immediately you park. I thought maybe it's a leak but the mech has inspected the pipes and can't find any leaks. Iv had the air filter blown clean, serviced the injectors and cleaned the plugs. I also swapped fuel tank cap with a friend's corolla and still the odor persists. The exhaust was leaking initially but this has long been fixed.

No error codes relating to this shows up, the only error code is a System Voltage Malfunction which flashes infrequently. Iv scanned using my OBD II scanner and I only says O2 sensor incomplete.

I suspect that the cause of the high consumption is the strong petrol odor. Please help!
remove rear seat, check fuel pump area.

Good evening. My AC doesn't work at all. We tried refilling but still didn't work. The AC guy then said it's the coil that needs to be changed. How right is that?
the coil is 12v powered, it can be tested directly to know if it is functional or not .

@gazzuzz. You de funny o! Could you explain why I shouldn't drive such cars, or even fix them?
Maybe because you thought the mesh wires for a temporal fix to the noise suppression was a permanent solution?
you drove over 650km with a catalyst filled with wire mesh, you handed the car over to the client in that state he drove it for 2more weeks, and you tell me it was a temporary solution?
You killed that engine.

THE FIX. WHAT WE DID

*traveled to the East to asses the c the car, and further confirm what the customer's complaints were.
*troubleshooting of the car was done by physical checks of the various exhaust related components, and a test drive carried out.
Discovered the car can't ascend a hill; low exhaust back pressure; and rattling noises from underneath the engine/exhaust area.
*drove car to a workshop, and requested the panel beater to remove the exhaust system in segments so we could identify the suspect component.
Exhaust tailpipe and mufflers were removed, and inspected for blockages. They were all through.
*asked the panel beater to rip through the catalytic converters with his oxyacetylene flame, in order to see the state if the catalysts.
To our surprise, only one of the catalytic converters was clogged, and the other catalytic converter has got no catalyst even in it.
*removed all the disintegrated catalysts, and stacked mesh wires in its place. This was done temporarily to reduce the "buuuuuuu" noise, and to enable us drive the car to Lagos.
Drove the car to Lagos; handed it over to the owner, and engine got knocked some weeks after.
*plans are on the way to replace the engine, as at the time this article was being conceived.

A stitch in time saves 10(my own saying please).
