Felakezman: Good afternoon guys..I scanned my car and I got this code for Camry 03
P0113 P0102 P0420 P0016
Pls house need your advice before kazeem tell me otherwise For P0102 & P0013, check if the wiring is okay, if yes, replace the MAF. For P0420, replace catalytic converter or install a spacer. For P0016, check OCV and VVTi. If these are okay, ask your mechanic to do a timing job on that engine. |

Bright2: Good morning all, pls hel , my 2007 Honda pilot do shorts oil and I do top it up for like 9 years . Now the engine fires well but it only smokes when on reverse with engine vibrating . Catalytic converter has been removed completely as it has expired. Two cylinder now doesn't fire any more but the plugs and ignition coils where proved ok . No gear issues . Is it adviceable to work on the engine? If yes where do I start from? Thank you. If your technician is sure your coils and injectors are all functioning well, he and is sure he knows how to rebuild an has access to genuine parts, let him tear down the engine check for tolerances within the block cylinders and if it's within specs, let him rebuild. But I'd always advise for a replacement of engine. |

williams20: Hello techies, Please I want to ask a question and I want a very objective and honest report . Do the 02 spacers sold everywhere now WORK? my honda Pilot 07 has been drinking my fuel for the last one month and it's abnormal, codes keep pointing to catalyst efficiency and also the 02 sensors , I want to know if the spacers will really do the job or just a waste of money Scan your car for error codes. If you have catalytic converter issues, you may get spacers. Some cars don't accept spacers |

Abeg help me When was the last time you changed the engine air filter? Is there a check engine light on the czr dashboard? If yes, did you scan for codes on the car computer?

Stalllion: My Hyundai Sonata 2015 sport 2.0T suddenly goes off and when I start it, I began hearing a knocking sound. My mechanic confirmed it's a knocking sound.
He says my two options are either to get a crank shaft with metal and bearing
Or get a new engine.
The former is cheaper but will it be a sustainable fix if done well? CC: inception |

dougejac: Is the unavailability of a catalytic converter not enough reason for the high fuel consumption?
I'm not in Abuja. I'm in Port Harcourt. Absence of catalyst may not be directly related to bad fuel economy. However, a clogged catalytic converter will cause fuel economy to drop drastically |

theadeola: I don't stay in Lagos. The city mpg was gotten in osogbo. I recently changed my plugs and air filter, and my thermostat is present. I also did my alignment recently, so that is also out. I'll check the fuel pump filter and injectors.
A vtc code came on recently, but that's after I got 30.8mpg on highway driving, so I am not sure if that is the cause of the bad city mpg. DM me 07034581213 |

Raysleek: The first right question to ask is how long did he drive in the city driving. How many miles did he cover in the city driving. Then you can compare the mpg and the mph His driving habits may matter if he jackrabbit, or engage in some random terrible driving, it can happen. |
Car Talk › Re: Honda Accord MPG Issue by kingreign(m): 8:18am On Jul 16, 2023 |
Raysleek: It's perfectly okay It's NOT perfectly okay sir. He isn't driving a Toyota Land cruiser V8 or a G63AMG. That MPG are for such trucks. Even a land cruiser does slightly better than that. |
Car Talk › Re: Honda Accord MPG Issue by kingreign(m): 8:00am On Jul 16, 2023 |
Raysleek: Its perfectly OK. On the highway you can cover almost 100 miles km an hour with the engine running at low rpm and the car working at highest gear ratio. But in city driving very frequently distance is covered with more engine rpm and a lot of start and stops 10mpg in city driving is NOT perfectly okay. theadeola: Hi house.
My 2008 Honda Accord got me 30.8 mpg on the highway but only 10mpg in city driving. I think the difference is too much.
Pls what can be the issue? Scanned the car, no codes. Do you have a check engine light on? If you do, scan and post codes, you'd also need to consider running a live data scan. Check your whee alignment, intake air filter, plugs, injector, fuel pump filter, and your thermostat is okay. If you stay in a city that has very terrible traffic like Lagos, your car may be experiencing such issues. |

My Lexus GS 300 is having strong steering. I was told to change the rack but I don't believe it's the rack. I think it's more of an electric issue cos the steering gets soft when I start the car but it later gets hard again like it's having partial contact Contact me 07034581213 |
