So I was at my mechanic quite recently and he asked me to help him scan one 2010 Accent which was having an occasional vibration at idle. The Car would also hesitate sometimes when the throttle is called upon.

Well, the car had no CEL and since I had confirmed the CEL bulb wasn't removed, I decided to run livedata to take a look at fuel trims and at least try to rule out fuel supply issues, vacuum leak etc.

Fastfoward. I hook up my scanner, run a manufacturer level scan as expected no codes. I then proceeded to take a look at STFT and LTFT but the car remained in Open loop. I just started the car, so I felt it's still warming up but alas it remained so after 5-10mins. This was odd to me as my Accord would hit closed loop at the blink of an eye after startup.

I then decided we should take it for a spin to help it "heat up" . Holding the scanner while the mechanic drove, it still refused to come out of open loop. We drove maybe almost about a km, but I was on a schedule and had to move on.

Bottom line I didn't read the fuel trims.

This was quite surprising to me, but my plausible explanation is that the car probably does not use heated O2 sensors thus requiring a long warm up time before the the O2 sensors become active and then provide the data for the car to enter closed loop.

Any thoughts?

On Saturday I called her to inform her that I was coming back for the treatment. I got there while she was about to leave for choir practice in the church. But while the massage was going on, I had an urge, so I had carnal knowledge of the girl. I have successfully raped her three times.

“It was the fourth time that she locked the gates against me

@mjbaba, king406 and ruby360 I totally understand your points but if there's any chance that this car could still function well I will like to explore it.
I still plan to buy either v6 406 or 607 but that will likely be early next year.

For now, however, this particular 406 moves, I believe it's just wrong wiring and connections that make it suffer constant breakdown and instead of selling it off to someone that will probably kill it, I want to try, to redo the connections. If after this it still fails then it will have to go. But I don't see why a car that has its mechanics restored to factory default should not function like new.

Plus redoing connections, using the right fluids, and proper maintenance servicing can't possibly be as costly as buying another one.

disgraceful human beings

This attitude has to stop now..

Rhozabeth:
Get ur mechanic to check the hob! My broda's car had a similar problem. The noise stopped when the hob in the two front wheels was changed!

DEXTROVERT:
wat could be the problem
my corolla sports 04 makes sounds similar to a race car when I zoom at 60km
I noticed the noise is worse in the morning and when I have not serviced it, I usually service it at average of 1500km...but wn I move at below 40km u hardly know a car is coming or wn I decelerate without pressing acceleration
the car is 14 months old and I noticed it wn it was bought from cotonou but not as worst as it makes now

I own a 2000 corolla and it use 1ZZ - fe engine as well, is it the same engine as 2005 corolla?

I feel this is the conclusion of the matter. Nextrend should collect this car since he erroneously did not inspect the car himself or send a 3rd party to confirm the state of the car. You cannot trust the judgment of an online car dealer to inspect the car, pay and deliver. That can only happen in heaven. I am not sure Nextrend will win this case if he goes to court. Though its a costly mistake, buyer should take the car, sell it. At most he will lose like N250,000. I have lost such an amount by buying a lemon about 9 years ago, i moved on. I have recovered fully. Ignorance is not an excuse for your error Nextrend though i feel your pain. Period!!!

Zealmind:
i don't know but it's an engine for 2005 toyota corolla sport

Emrich:
I was actually inspired to do this after watching and reading your thread "Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online" and quite frankly I will prefer a v6 variant of the car. So selling seems like the better option; but if I were to pursue this plan, could you give me an estimate for it? Thank you.

Gazz man. Thanks for your help on this thread.
I drive an 03 corolla. I got it in January last year. It was naija used earlier. I believe the previous owner got it in January 2012. I do not know the service history but I think it was not serviced previously with 5w 30 motor oil.
Since I got it I have serviced trice with 5w 30 motor oil. I serviced last august last year. I do not drive much maybe around 2000km since last service date. But when I checked the oil level this morning though the oil is still relatively OK but due for service I notice the oil has gone down. The level is close to quarter above the first hole on the dip stick. When I serviced last it was almost close to the second hole in level on the dip stick.
My neighbors say my engine may be getting weak. So I ask should I still continue with my 5w30 engine oil or use another heavier engine oil for the next service. And what could be the possible cause of the issue and likely remedies to the shortage of oil.
Hope you can understand my issue.

does it fail in honda,because it has 2 ball joints? yes or no?

ataspray:
ur point is very valid. but right now, we both are not sure of the exact cause of this in d yaris.
the point is that it could happen to any car really, due to bad part, negligence, mistake, a loose bolt and what not..

the other point is dat it doesn't happen to honda mostly because honda makes bad cars/suspension system, but because of the rampant honda fake parts. or do u have a different theory as to why it happens mostly with honda cars?

all said n done. MAINTENANCE is key. gazzuzz ,ur theory sounds reasonable, but then why is d ball joint of a 2015 yaris being changed already?

this thing cn happen to any car. ive seen it happen live to a 4runner, and it seems to only occur at low speeds. seen it on a benz too, and a nissan.

it is more rampant with honda bcoz there re more honda fake parts out there. its nt bcoz honda cars have the defect.

now, regardless of watever car u drive, ensure u maintain it properly, and only change with genuine parts. nd dis will never happen! its truly not a honda problem. dose dt have ears and wisdom will hear and learn frm dis.

valarinz:
I used to respect your opinion and advise a lot on car talk section, but this particular comment made me realise you truly are not such an authority as I thought you were. Next time, instead of pretending to know it all , just tell the OP you truly don't know much about parts availability cos maybe u deal in other brands mainly.

To the OP, go to Alhaji amusa street, isolo, you'll see Volvo parts till you run for your life, and also very cheap and affordable too, anything you need, don't mind this man saying you'll cry when looking for parts

Thanks
