chrisatah94: Good morning sir Gazzuz & @all
Please I got a toks Honda Civic 09 barely 2months... Being a newbie & since it's a personal ride for just everyday simple runs like to & fro for work, shopping when needs be etc..I planned to be using the recommended engine oil (which I tried to know earlier but didn't get info). So my friend recommended I bought mobil 20w-50. But I just confirmed the recommended oil for the civic is 5w-20. My question now is 1. Will it be wise to flush out the old and put in new 5w (giving the popular opinion that one should ensure to continue using same type of oil you started with to prevent quick damage of your engine)
2. The car has a ridiculously low ground clearance and it hits the ground frequently when I navigate around undulating terrain. Even the bottom left of the front bumper is showing crack already due to the impact of hitting the ground. Please will you recommend I go to lift the car or probably change to bigger tyres/rims?
3. Since day one of buying the car, it shows this spanner sign on the dashboard and doesn't show anything on that milage display area. (Meanwhile know immediately we bought it we change all the necessary oil and transmission fluid). Please is that something I should worry about, what are the implications...also how do I get that fixed
4. I'm in Abuja please...if you recommend I visit a car fixing shop... Please if possible kindly recommend me someone that is good with Honda
Thanks in anticipation of your response 07034581213 Abuja |

chrisatah94: Please I use a 2009 Honda Civic. The car is too low and very obvious when it meets undulating roads, it keeps hitting the ground anyhow. I'm in Abuja... please help recommend a good place around to go lift it, alongside an idea of the price? Thanks A civic is low to the ground as designed from the manufacturer. If you can’t drive it like that, please sell it off and get a CRV or pilot or element or any taller vehicle. |

shuri: Please I can't find the auxiliary port in my MDX 2008. I checked the central console armrest. This is what I saw. (Attached picture).
Though there are some ports facing the back seat below the rear ac vents. Not working with the auxiliary. If your vehicle has the DVD system, you don’t have the aux port. If it doesn’t have the DVD option, then you have the aux port in your center console with a cover that is lifted from the bottom side. |

Bobbiet: I scanned my Corolla 03 for transmission issue. It said (shift solenoid. How do I. Rectify this? Gear selects erratically. Drop valve body, get the exact faulty shift solenoid replaced, reinstall everything back, change trans filter, pour in fresh ATF, test drive. If it works you’re good to go, if not, I’d suggest you replace transmission. This isn’t a DIY operation. By the way, where is your car located? |

Unruly7: Good evening all My Honda 2007 D indicator on dashboard is always blinking once the car is on driver The issue started on Friday after I asked an electrician to check all the fuses in the car to make sure they all pass currents he removed all the fuse and use little naked wire to bridge all the fuse and suck them back.
I went to my mechanic and he said it’s my gear sensor that needs servicing after servicing the sensor and changing of gear oil, I start the car and the blinking stop at some point it started again, it seems the blinking comes on when the car is hot or so
My Gear selects well Engine is sound
The 2 problems I’m having now is 1) the D blinking 2) once I’m on hold up with AC my car sounds as if it’s not getting enough fuel supply be sounding like it once to off. Like there’s a cut in fuel supply.
I’m in Abuja please what can you suggest because I want to take it to mechanic or electrician I don’t even know. 07034581213. Call or WhatsApp |

Samafroxy22: There is this fake exhaust leak tapping sound on my glk only when accelerating fast... i have removed the exhaust system to diagnose where the leak was coming from..
during this procedures we fhave found a cracked cone where the exhaust is joined together and sone other parts with leaks. We removed the exhaust manifolds; bank 1 and 2 to check the gaskets and there was no others leaks...
With all these, their is no improvement in the sound. Another guess is a cracked or leaking plugs which i havent done yet.
Please help � me
Cc GAZZUZZ GLK have active exhaust system. There are butterfly valves which can actuate during the engine running depending on throttle input, it opens and closes to create turbulence and rumbling noise inside. Also, there are valves and cuts inside the exhaust passageway too. If they’re burnt and broken, you may get distorted sounds. |

How is the maintenance? It’s a good car,maintenance isn’t high, parts are available, if you’re buying a fairly used unit, pls ask about the maintenance history and type of oils used especially in the transmisssion because i4 models has CVT transmission while the V6 uses traditional automatic transmission. |

That said, pls do well to verify that the car has all its documents intact and you meet and conclude with the owner before parting with cash. |

Samconcepts: I use Camry 2010 4cylinder. Whenever I buy some good quantity of fuel, the car takes time to start and steam normal. This has continued for over a year now. What is the possible cause of this? A lot of things can cause this delayed start. Have the car scanned and if no codes pops up, have it inspected by a competent technician. |

Angrygoat: Abs sensor for gs won't exceed 12k max. Brand new,tokunbor aka naija used with doubts like 7k. ABS is basically for stability of vehicle during slippery roads,rather than going zig zag,u will be going straight and would be able to brake to a stop within 5 to 7 seconds,b4 your gear jumps to neutral esp on hard emergency brakes. Lexus dey mad oh. I miss lexus sha. please, this not necessarily true. Depends on the brand and quality, some could easily surpass 40k a piece brand new
