lrguru:
I think the scan is necessary too

what do u want d scanning 4?Scanning is only used to diagonise an electrical faults xcept d D light is blinking.

lrguru:
u argue as though u are technically inclined and I'd love to know what u think the solution is. Me think the problem is the ATF used cos it only started misbehavin when the gear oil was changed to dextron III.

There r seals attached to d shifts connected to d gear box.if the deals r deformed,ATF oil escape from d seals.what could av happened when dextron 3 is used is due to it's viscocity.might b lighter when hot n d rate at which d oil keeps spilling is high.

ZIMDRILL:
he is trying to say his car is manual shift

Thanks boss,that's d correction i wanna make cos all they av bn discussing is d engine oil.i wonder oo

Hey, I had the same problem with same model of car, the problem was the transmission oil. What transmission fluid do you use? you have to drain it and flush 3 times as recommended by Honda, also use the honda ATF-DW1, it is available in the market. Don't use Dextron III, it's only for temporary use. The reason a lot of people have transmission failure problems is because they use the wrong fluid. Every car has its recommended trans-fluid. Even most mechanics don't know about this, it's so funny that a lot of them are the cause of most transmission failures. Imagine a mechanic working on a honda transmission and beside him is an ABRO transmission fluid. He has just damaged that transmission even before starting the engine. Always use your car manuals. I now do most of the fixing myself with the help of auto videos on youtube. I still advise you scan it. You can call me on 08034196697 for more info.

U were right to an extend but this is nt abt d oil used.Those seals r faulty n needed to b change.Use DW 1 oil,the spillage will still occur

fanex:
please scan the car with a top grade scanner. do not listen to these road side mechanic who will tell you to remove the g ear and re-install it (looking for a big job). do not touch the gear until you are sure of what is wrong with it.

honda was not build with a country like Nigeria in mind. these cars are very sensitive and more prone to fault. unless you're able to buy a brand new Honda and sell it of it on its fourth year anniversary. The car will develop very annoying faults the shocks are body panel will rattle.. bottom line stay away from tokunbo or a naija used hondas.

u don't knw what u r talking abt.

scan d car cos of oil spillage?these DIY pple won't kill us with laughter ooooo.

AutosBay:
The engine may develop an oil leak due to a porous engine block casting which can be rectified by jb welding. The repair procedure is dependent on where the leak is located.

Hello,
I used to be a volkswagen cry baby, but since i got my Honda accord...life has been bliss...
Anyway, ever since i got it nigerian used, i noted that after a month of driving, i always get an oil shortage and the oil gets very black after 2 months.
You see, i like driving very fast and maxing my gear before changing the manual gear, and unfortunately, the tachometer/ Rev counter calibration is faulty and i have to rely on engine sound to know when to change.
I have read about oil shortage on honda accords, and i hear its a factory error on some cars, and i should just top up.

What i want to know is what you honda aficionados think?
If i can switch my oil from 5w 20 to mobil 1??
If driving like a racer all the time can cause my oil level to drop and blacken more quickly
And just your opinions please.
Thank you

sorry guys,what is a manual transmission oil?

adanny01:
Its a shame that i tried to let you understand but you just wouldnt. The ones i called that have been with me were the only professionals i had immediate access to at d location. Do you expect me to call a professional from Japan or what?

May be you should give me the number of this professional you are talking about because by your standards i dont have his/her number. Can i send him a flight ticket to come to Sambisa forest next time my car breaks down around there.

I dont know how else to politely explain to you o! In your line of thinking you didnt consider that the 'professional' may be 1000km away? Or that the professional may cost me an arm or leg? Or that there is a possibility that i know more than the available professional? Or simply i dont know any professional? Haba!

Merry xmas everyone.

just shown whom u r.same here

adanny01:
I dont understand the self diagnosing stuff you mean. Do you mean i should not scan my car, i should take it to an experience center for a 3k or more per scan session? Or invite a 'professional mechanic' who has no idea what a scan is to come and diagnose an obvious electrical problem in a fairly modern car? Do you know the town or location i had the break down and if a professional mechanic is available? From my post i believe it was obvious i wasnt alone since i had a electrical mechanic with me all through but who had no skills of scanning a modern car. The essence of my openning post is to find assistance in the diagnosis. I later posted that we invited a gear specialist because the only DTC code i had was gear related.

Its a shame u don't understand mi n didn't tell u to call road side mech.if u would av called a professional earlier,time n effort would av bn saved.buy a billion scanners,u will still need a pro to rectify such issue.na d 2-3k b ur problem.i rest my case

Good morning n happy xmas to my fellow nairalanders.Just wanna ask if anyone experience fuel scarsity since yesterday night.In ayobo/ipaja area,no filling station selling fuel of any kind.Any info where to purchase,let us know

ZIMDRILL:
i didnt draw you back but you draw yourself back

you opened a thread trying to find some information and advice

you only explained the behaviour of the car and now after 1 or 2 of my input you start to release information about water getting in etc and some of the things you did such as finding more information etc

if you had mentioned all the information in the 1st post i wouldnt have wasted my time time trying to explain things that you would have done already

U don't know a thing abt cars

ZIMDRILL:
like many people you want to be spoon feed

once you obtain the code all is need is google the meaning of the code

you will find information on the code and it will give you possible causes of the faulty

instead of googling the meaning of the code you come here and post the code instead of using the internet u are using the post the code, use it to find the meaning of the code therefore you dont have to waiting for people to respond to your thread

nowdays information is within your fingertips aslong you have access to the internet

check picture


http://engine-codes.com/p0705_honda.html


secnd picture show information from the 1st link

its easy as cutting butter with a hot knife when you have a code and you want to know the meaning of the code or what is causing the problem you are having after pulling out a code

Oga park well.seems u didn't read n comprehen what d op said.Everything is not goggle.D op didn't know what d transmission range sensor looks like.@op:stop all these self diagonising stuff,let a professional handles ur car n d fault will b rectified.

I STILL REPEAT.....OIL IS ENGINE..AUTOMOBILE ENGINE ISNT!

better be safe than sorry, 3months or 3000miles is ok for the avg nigerian car user using conventional 20w 50 oil

In th e western world, they have labs where you can send the oil for analysis, assuming such a facility exists in nigeria, i would have willingly sent in my oil at 6/7/8/9 months interval since i use synthethic so i can be sure and change my oil change interval accordingly................but since such a lab doesnt exist in nigeria.......i rather play safe and change my oil every 6months/6kmiles......

I have been a victim of sludge in engine, caused by leaving the conventional oil in my car for more than 4months...cos i was yet to cover 2k miles. i know the heartache and regret i suffered then...and it was only by the grace of GOD that the engine was salvaged
3months oil interval = 4 x per yer @ 3k per gallon, thats 12k per yr on oil......compared to car engine of 100k and above, its a no brainer playing a game of chance

word

ZIMDRILL:
thats all wrong information

on average oil change starts from 9000km going to 20000km this kilometre based as per period starts from a year or 1 and half years to 2 years

check the picture for an example

hahahahaahahaahahahahaha.check ur source very well.some r funny die

Coldplay007:
Well you can't keep telling people to read manuals or google the issues they have on a car forum like this..
If you can't advise them appropriately you should ignore and let people who can advise them do..

U r right.That's d mistake most car owner do especially d banking sector pple.Not all u read online is applicable to urs.my advice is look 4 those who r specialist on a certain car.Honda specialist 4 honda cars.Toyota specialist 4 toyota cars.not to those who claimed they r specialist in all japanese cars.

ogawisdom:
It all depends on d type of engine oil one is using. I use total quartz 5000 dt means I can't exceed 5000km on it. I think there is total quartz 9000 which can b used for up to 9000km. My main concern with this thread is for ppl who use their car only for city driving and travell sparingly wit it. For this group of ppl they may nt even use up to 2000km on an oil in 3months, so I guess they can continue using same oil for 6months n cover lik 4000km before an oil change. Although 3000km ll b ok for me to b on d safer side

atimes when u see pple talking abt cars,i just laughed.Each manufacturer has its own service manual n can't go again it,if u want ur car well maintained.I can only talk of honda cos that's my area of specialisation.Honda oil recommendation is mobil engine oil n service d car at 5000km or d next 3months.I see pple talking abt not using their cars regularly or used within d city.The use of 5000km is 4 pple using d car travelling or covered d said 5000km within 3months.The 3months period is those who used didn't cover d 5000km n other factors are considered like traffic.Atime u can b in a traffic 4 like 2hrs n ur engine is running,the lifespan of d engine is shorten,The engine oil of a Car used 4 just 2000km might b darker compared to d one that ad already completed 5000km.When it comes to cars,don't think abt d money that will b spend,think abt d safety n d condition of d car.(didn't say u shouldn't b prudent with ur spending).Let professionals handle ur cars n stop all these i knw all things.

CityNG:
That is the job of the fuel pressure regulator.

What you don't want to do is install a fuel pump from a fuel injector engine into a carburated engine.
