Hello

Please I seek help on this forum for a competent Mech. I have a 2005 mazda6 that is giving me start issues.

History of problem

Imported the vehicle from d US as run n drive.

Cleared the vehicle via adexfem and vehicle was driven to destination

Did servicing and normal checks...drove vehicle around for about 3months

One morning vehicle refuses to come alive. Cranks but doesn't come alive

Fuel pump has been checked and it supplies.

Will be grateful if sum1 can recommend me a mech that can come to my place @ ojota, Lagos

Thanks

I have procured a cable, which appears to do everything else apart from reset my TCM memory. Initializes the reset with 45 seconds remaining, and then at 39 seconds tells me reset failed. Reset memory not available for this vehicle.

GAZZUZZ, have you undertaken this procedure successfully with Techstream before?

mexxy1:
Read before you reply and stop jumping to conclusions. You are not an authority in automotive technology.

If you had read properly you'll see I said "MY CONCLUSIONS..." I NEVER said they were related.

For your information I don't take alcoholic beverages like you. Thanks and learn to keep your arrogant, bossy opinions to yourself.

sorry man. it was just a joke

Has anyone had this same experience? I just changed all four (4) tyres of my vehicle and noticed a major improvement in the cooling from the AC.

My conclusion was that the engine was doing more work moving the vehicle hence less resources channeled to the cooling system so with the vehicle now gliding, less work for the engine thus, more power to the AC. Am I correct?

Oga GAZZUZZ please help a brother. I drove my car all through last week without any issues, only to start the car on monday morning morning to go to work and discovered that when i step on the acceleration pedal, it doesn't even respond, also the car started to have this funny vibration. I tried to check what the issues could be online and discovered i could have a bad throttle sensor and a bad ignition coil(as the mechanic mentioned). I may need to call you to talk with you personally. Cheers.

hope it's not a mitsubishi GDI vehicle?

iamphill:

UPDATE! UPDATE!!

I got a Rewire yesterday who came in with one pen bulb with cord, so we pulled out a good battery from another car and kick-started mine, he connected the pen bulb to one of the battery terminals and the bulb came on. I expected the dude to come over with a Voltmeter and take readings from some terminals, but he never did. (This is Nigeria where we test live cables with tongue)
He said normally the bulb should go off after a few mins if all connections are in order, but the bulb kept beaming.
So, he opened the fuse box, started yanking and replacing the fuselage one after the other, while watching to see when the pen bulb will go off, eventually the light never went off.
He advised that I'll need to bring it down to his workshop for a comprehensive scan today, as the preliminary checks didn't turn up any issue.
Later he removed the battery while the engine is still running and installed back my battery allowing it to charge up. As my battery charged up, he shut the engine and removed one of the cables (to avoid draining again) on the advise that when I'll leave in the evening, I'll replace the cable and then drive home. I was supposed to repeat the cable removal process when i get home in the night, and replace in the morning to start. So, in the evening I replaced the cable, cranked the car to life and went home, but I deliberately didn't want to remove the cable again.
I was preparing for another drama in the morning but surprisingly, when I cranked it, the battery was alive to it's duty and the engine came on immediately, so instead of going to the Rewire's workshop, I went to the office straight. As I parked, I still didn't remove the cable, just trying to see if it will drain again.
I just went to the car park now, and checked again, cranked and the car came alive!

I guess I can now assume that the world peace has been restored?
P.S. I called the battery dealer to keep my old battery for me, as I can see from these outcomes that the battery is still in good condition

Good morning everyone, please I need your advice. I want to get EOD 2004 EX and I am thinking of picking v6 because of engine power and small difference in fuel consumption when compared with i4 engine version (my research from car sites).
