Muyesky:
I did scan the vehicle and the code said oxygen sensor 2, bank 2. Can this be the only reason for the the vtm light showing? your VTM system will shut down if there is a DTC on the engine, so yes it is possible the VTM4 light is on because of the O2 sensor. Have it replaced, clear codes and hope it fixes your problem. You can also bring it to my workshop if you want to have it fixed. Address is in signature. Lagos |

godfadda6: Good day my good people,
I have a question. I was driving my Toyota solara today and my check engine light came on.
I scanned it and it came back with No dtc code found.
I'm confused, what does that mean? Your scanner is lowest grade chinko 
Actually there are codes that certain hand held scanners will not pick up, e.g manufacturer specific codes, so get a high end scanner and you will see the error. |

Muyesky: Help please, I am about to purchase a very sweet looking 2007 honda pilot but has the vtm and check engine light on. The Jeep seems somehow sluggish when the light comes on but very sleek when it is not. What could be responsible for this? is it easily fixable or should I just bolt? please help. you should have the vehicle scanned and checked by an automobile technician. Before paying. A lot of them will be here soon. |

Etoo: Good evening guys.
Pls I have this issue of my car bringing out black exhaust smoke after start up and whenever the throttle is matched on.
This is giving me a big concern considering the fact its a recently purchased vehicle and no "check engine" light is showing for me to diagonise it.
Kindly help me in your suggestions on how to rectify this. CC. SIENNA AND CO. that there is no check engine light, Does not mean there is no code. Bulb might have been deleted, or connected to give a false impression that there is no error. |

Autos › Re: SOLD! Smart Deal. Honda Accord - 2009/2010. Neat And Sharp. Price reduced- N700k by GAZZUZZ(m): 7:44am On Jun 08, 2016 |
elshanAutos: You are 100% wrong. The only thing Gazzuzz may be wrong on is the price which may likely have increased due to recent dollar brouhaha. As at last year when Gazzuzz and I were in oyingbo to source for the engine, we did not find a single one available despite Gazzuzz's tenacity and numerous people resources. The one of 300/350k is a fake R20 engine (basically a civic R18 engine, which looks physically identical to the R20, they just file off the 18 and stamp 20, though Gazzuzz was able to detect this right away, or the 'worked' one which is when the oyingbo chaps merge components from the R18 and R20 engine)
The engine is NOT available and definitely not affordable. And you didn't pay for engine Inspection  |

omoidunnu: Sorry Gazuzz... you re so wrong! Get your facts right!!!
I have just made inquiries myself and 2 people on this forum have called me and have stated that they have also been to oyingbo... the engine is available and cost 300k.
Pls I respect your opinion but always put a caveat if you are not sure of something.
The engine is available and affordable. Oyingbo is not far. www.nairaland.com/attachments/3554500_giphy_giff78492f0513c659e69dab2e47f567202 |

bravolad: I do Owerri to Abuja regularly but I go through Owerri to Onitsha - Onicha Ugbo - Uromi to Ewu junction to Okene to Lokoja and then Abuja. I spend less hours via this route because the roads are relatively ok. However, I have peeps who do the Enugu route but each time we take off together, I usually get to Abuja before them. They also complain that the Enugu route is lonely. The Ajeokuta stretch of the route is very bad so you need to be careful there. Safe trip. I like this route, very familiar territory, and you get to pass through my village. |
