Kalapizim: I need help with my Lexus Es300, the temperature gets hot when I put on the AC on high. Then stop putting the AC in high  Just kidding. Have a competent technician check if the fans spin when you turn on the AC, the speed of the fans, direction of airflow and if all these are okay, check your radiator, wash it, and also check your cooling systems and bleed off air pockets. |

RyanAutomotive: Good day boss,
For a Honda Civic 2010, the recommended battery capacity is usually 60–70 Ah with a good CCA rating suitable for the engine size.
Preferred battery brands we recommend (in order): 1. Varta 2. Bosch 3. ACDelco 4. Amaron 5. Exide
Always ensure the battery matches the factory specifications for your exact Civic engine.
Ryan Automotive Limited 📍 LASU–Isheri Road, Lagos Precision • Transparency • Excellence 🚘⚡ Too much Ai don dey make you do anyhow. How many sellers go fit import and sell thse batteries you mentioned? Even if they have it, how many buyers will be willing to spend over 200k on a small tiny battery? |
Technology Market › Re: Refrigerator Suggestions With Very Cold Fridge Compartment by kingreign(m): 11:55am On Feb 04 |
Phraences: Hello . Please I need suggestions for refrigerator brands or models that
1) their fridge compartments get very cold even to the point of freezing sometimes.
2) Takes days to defrost after power outage.
Thank you. For your business, your best bet is 6feet freezers, they're chinese brands that are okay, there are the main stream brands too that offers decent warranty if you must go by brand loyalty and are concerned about warranty backing, you can also do foreign used. Those are very rugged and quality freezers. You can get leibherr, GE, Siemens, BOSCH etc. |

tempest12: Good evening, my RX 350 AWD, I parked it down for a year, when I eventually start up, the gear jerks and makes a clunking sound so much when changing, Oil was replaced immediately and the jerking / clunking sound reduced drastically. Now it changes smoothly but makes a little clunking sound when entering only the first gear while on transit. Other gear changes smoothly. Please help. Have you scanned? What year us the RX350? If its 22pin, use a scan tool to try and reset the gearbox. |

kakameks: Update:
So I noticed something. Where I usually park overnight, it requires me to reverse out of my compound onto the street first before engaging the forward gear, and if a car happens to be passing it usually have to wait awhile before the forward gear slowly engage.
So I now reverse park so that I don't have to reverse first thing in the morning. However I now notice a significant reduction in the delay in the car moving forward when I engage drive!
Noticed this for 4 consecutive days and I have continued this parking method, hopefully the delay will stop in it's entirety.
What do you guys make of this?
Will still go for a r tranny scan as soon as I can located a place that does it. Scan and post codes, check transmission fluid colour and level. You should also check the transmission sump for impact. |

dapotemi: My Corolla 06 usually delay when the gear is engage only in the morning or when the car is parked for atleast 5 hours. I scanned it and I got P0500, something related VSS fault /speed sensor. Pls who do I call? Rewire or mechanic! I have also watched some YouTube video and I noticed the sensor is attached to the gearbox Internal wear on the transmission components may cause this, but change the VSS and trans filter with fluid, If it still continues, and code still exists, plan to change transmission |

kakameks: Hello everyone,
I have been having some issues with my Lexus rx330 AWD.
So if the car is parked for long like over night or for like 8hrs or more, it is difficult getting it to move. Like in the morning if I engage drive the car won't move. I have to raise the engine speed for sometime before it will slowly begin move forward. Though once it moves it behaves normal if I disengage and re-engage the drive. The hesitation is no more.
This issues only happens with the drive gear, reverse works fine no matter when I use it.
I was suspecting a failing transmission pump but if this were the case the reverse gear will also be affected.
The transmission fluid level is okay and it doesn't smell burnt or look dark.
I recently did a filter cleaning like 6months ago.
I am seriously suspecting one of the solenoid valves that engages the forward gear or a blocked valve body.
Any suggestions? Your clutch bands and or pressure control solenoid is going out. You may also wish to check your trans filter. |

dukeo: Good day everyone here. For months now I've been having problems with my 2010 toyota corolla. The car hard starts. If I'm lucky it starts after the first crank in the morning but it takes too long, dragging before it starts. Other times the first crank would be unsuccessful and the second or third one does the trick and sometimes I need to step on the gas pedal for it to pick up.
Vehicle has been scanned and brought up some codes about misfire, timing and oxygen sensor.
Things I've done based on recommendations: serviced the injectors, changed spark plugs x2, changed fuel pump x3, timing change job done and yes the timing chain wasn't properly set, changed coils.
Yesterday was the worst, had to spend the whole day at the mechanic watching them work on the timing. I want to believe these guys are not sure what the problem is, I need help 🤲🏾 Change mechanic have another mechanic recheck everything. |
