olisaemeka1: What is the problem with your gear? Don't be quick to replace it without proper diagnosis to avoid "Oga, we don put am, but the problem still dey there" |

Please who knows where to urgently go for an update? 2-year visa application. Priority service. Document submitted on 14th November at TLS Ikeja. Decision supposedly taken since two weeks ago according to UKVI. Passport not out. Due to travel in two days! |

Whynow:I will be interested in knowing how they test the computer. 'clicking' PWM solenoids is not a good way to test them. They are fully driven by the computer, unlike the on/off ones. |

Inception: That adaptive value reset is neither here nor there. It is recommended, but the vehicle can do the relearn on its own if it has to. If that was the problem, it would have been evident in this case immediately after installation. But it worked for four months before acting up. Our Nigerian mechanics don't know what is adaptive reset, but they still install these gears, and they drive right out of the sheds, and stay out. If everything works fine mechanically for a U150, it drives fine right off the lift. |

colossus2: OK, that is garage shift. You have sticky valves and/or solenoid(s). It was the check engine that triggered the TRAC. Are you still having the delayed engagement? |
Car Talk / Re: I Need A Specialist To Reflash My ECU, 07 RX350 by Kashif(m): 6:17pm On Nov 28, 2018 |
Whynow: It is hard to say now that the culprit is your computer. Do determine that, a painstaking scoping of the solenoid wires need to be done. If 2-3 flare (where the engine rpm rises and falls between the shift before eventually completing) is all you have, its in the valvebody. The only snag here is that yours is intermittent. |

colossus2: Can you throw more light on the first bolded? When you say 'try changing gears', what do you mean? Garage shift? On the second bolded, it is not looking very good... |

colossus2: Just the shaft was replaced? Nothing else was done? Reverse does not conk out like that. When you say on Drive works, do you have all forward gears, or you just know it moves forward when engaged? How many cylinders is your Rav? |

mayor2013: I have seen many of them. Because of this heat/cold myth, mechanics even wait for three days! I know you won't try it, but one day, I will come to your shop and guarantee a transmission replacement if something goes wrong with 'hot' job done properly. How about that? |
Car Talk / Re: Highlander 2006 Model, Gear Not Changing After Changing Shaft by Kashif(m): 8:19am On Oct 22, 2018 |
Readonee35L: The problem is that U150 aka 13pin transmissions are very unforgiving when contaminated. A pinch of sand is all it takes to ground them. It is mostly tree-shed mechanics that suffer this the most, because of their work ethics and environment. During shaft replacements, they would usually drop the replacement shaft on the (sandy) ground before installation, which will guarantee dirt ingress into the transmission. When they attempt to clean, they don't do a thorough job. They would just use a rag to 'dust' it and then install. If you do this, it will come back to bite you. It needs to be washed if you work under this condition. Another source of dirt during installation is the shaft seal. That too needs to be cleaned (as much as you can) otherwise, the dirt there will rob off on the shaft as it makes its way into the transmission. It is common to hit the seal a couple of times while aiming at the orifice. If temperature is the issue, then how can failures after 48-hour wait be explained? I have worked on these when they had only cooled down enough to be handled without contact burns, and no issues. 1 Like |

OPUSDEI1: Please tell them. This issue has NOTHING to do with heat. If you do it carelessly after one week inside a freezer, there will be problems. |

Car Talk / A Cheap Headlamp Lens Cleaning DIY by Kashif(m): 7:35pm On Oct 03, 2018 |
Out of curiosity, I wondered if baking soda could have some cleaning effect on automobile lamp lens as it does to other things, so I tried it out. Made a paste out of it and applied to the lens. Initially, I used fine sand paper, testing on top of the lens, and it proved too abrasive, almost ruining the lens. Then I used my bare palm. I noticed the crisp white soda turning yellow on application. Did it twice and rinsed. It did not turn it to new, but the difference is evident! 1 Like
