Woke up this morning and found my battery head like this 👇. It has been happening for some time now, my battery technician just wash and replace but it comes up again. Please what is the cause and the permanent remedy?
I saw this on twitter some hours ago. Although the narration was different. Hope I’m not being subjected to twitter people community o😂🤣



Those white powdery substance are dried sulphuric acid from the battery corrosion. Clean and wash off the terminals, then use grease or household Vaseline to coat all over the battery terminal. You should be fine.

bro it’s not possible to avoid flooded areas where I live especially in rainy season 😢
You have two options and they’re not easy.
Option 1. Buy a tall car with conventional steering
Option 2. Relocate from flood prone areas.

Okay, it has a part number, send me the part number via WhatsApp 07034581213.

If you need the OEM, it’s very expensive. It’s around 120k but only available on order.

Hi guys, I travelled to Owerri last December with my car, on getting to Owerri my brakes started malfunctioning and I managed it to irate just like 3-4 kilometers to town

I parked near mechanic workshop and I got down from the car and called one mechanic to help me with the brakes and he told me to reverse and enter the workshop but the ignition key didn't turn again, we tried our best all to no avail.
I was told to look for key cutters still the same so we decided to break the key and I managed it to my house.
I later bought another complete steering with key and the electrician fitted it and I left the car with my mechanic because he was unable to finish the repairs

I personally locked the car with the follow come key (remote control) and handed it to the mechanic
The following day when I got there I don't know how or which of the keys he used to open the car and I called his attention to the central lock not working, my butt, fuel tank refuse to open and we break the fuel tank to enable me buy.

Mechanic said it will normalize but till January
Nothing happened, I called my electrician from Lagos and
he charged me 30k and I gave him 15k advance to come and repair it in Ondo but after collecting the money he started with one excuse or another till after election he blocked me and I can't reach him my wife called he promised before the end of April all to no avail.
His number is 08023966183
The central lock icon is on I can't lock the car neither can I open the butt since December till date, can someone help me,

Car Zafira 2008 model.
What do you want us to do for you?
To locate the rogue mechanics or to assist you unlock or lock the car or what?

Good evening Professionals,

I use Camry 08, whenever I accelerate, i hear sound like an iron is scratching the floor or something. My mechanic said it's 'flywheel" I'm not sure if I spelt it correctly, they say the iron is between the engine and the gear.

I don't know if that's true

Also, my ABS and break light shows on the dashboard, and my RPM and speedometer has not been reading. Two rewirers said I need to change my ABS Box, another two different rewirers said I'll need to buy another dashboard.

Pls what do u think guys, I don't want to do and error with them because it will cost me money.
Get a good technician that knows what he’s doing to diagnose and then fix it properly

Please I need your experienced input, I have a 2008 toyota corolla, as I was driving this afternoon I noticed steam coming from the bonnet, AC was on and we were in hold up, I noticed the fan was not running as I opened the bonnet, I called my mechanic who told me it's the fan, immediately we went to change the fan (sic) mechanism, after fitting the fan it still didn't work, we have to get a rewire who discovered that the fan fuse is burnt, we also noticed that the radiator was leaking water from the side.

My confusion now is that the mechanic and the guy that fixed the fan is saying (1) I have to get a 2 cell radiator as the single cell is small for my engine or (2) they weld the bad radiator which will serve for sometimes

Please I need your input for best decision to make please

Get a double cell radiator!

Na Toyota Avalon 06 model with 2gr Engine

The mechanic say the timing non correct say him need to reset the timing.
I know Camshaft and Crankshaft correlation codes may mean that it’s timing is off. However, a VVT cam may be the cause or any other thing like the tensioner or the guide rails or sprockets too. This is why I want you to carry out proper scan using a good scan tool and also take live readings of the Camshaft advance and retardations of the camshafts on both banks (intake and exhausts)

Hi Kingrein,

I salute what you're doing on this thread and would appreciate if I can get your permission to also reply to questions. If I'm wrong, please call me to order ASAP.

As the OP, I believe it is rude to just barge in and start making comments on people's problem when I could be misleading people. With the small experience I have in the Auto repair business, I have concluded that nothing costs more money than wrong diagnostics. This is what simply puts holes in the pocket of the car owner and ruins your reputation as a trusted autotech.

So please, permission to carry on?
Feel free pls.

Car TalkRe: Urgent Help: Will A Bad ABS Sensor Destroy The Gear Box? by kingreign(m): 8:07am On May 10, 2023
chukel:
true. In newer cars, it makes the transmission rough. That said, the abs sensor is not expensive. He should replace it. If you so much love the car, get an abs sensor, fix and test run the car. If transmission is smooth, pay and carry your car.
In toyota, it’s very unlikely that a bad abs sensor will cause transmission shifting issues.
Car TalkRe: Gear Of My Lexus Rx 300 Is Not Engaging by kingreign(m): 8:05am On May 10, 2023
MarianaTrench:
I drive a Lexus RX 300.

It so happened that the battery started draining overnight for no reason. Eventually the auto electricial discovered that the cause of the problem was the radio and he removed it to fix.

When I eventually drove the car I realised that the speakers, the inner lights and the sun roof have stopped working but the major issue is that after 2 days the vehicle stopped engaging gear.

The car is permanently stuck in neutral "N" now. The gear lever moves but it does not actually engage and the light on the dashboard showing the gear position remains on "N".

Is this problem an electrical fault caused by the work the auto electrician did or is it a mechanical fault?

I have never had this problem before although I changed the front axle about 5 years ago.

Check Transmission cable it’s either cut or disconnected.
If that is okay, check PRND (park neutral safety) switch

Please why did you sell your RX 330? Please give me an honest answer. It will go a long way to guiding my decision making whether to get it or another vehicle. Thank you.
I sold it after 6.5years of very satisfied usage with no issue at all. Not a single issue. I was just bored and needed to try other brands of cars.

Good afternoon

What could make my RAV 2015/2016 XLE model be leaking fuel when the tank is full... I have changed the tank cos of same problem plus leakage.

The new tank is not leaking again, but once I get to the filling station and fills up the car.. Once it fills to the brim, fuel starts pouring from under the car

It is so disheartening. What can I do
It pours out because you fill to the beyond the filler pipe. Stop over filling your tank, it will damage your EVAP system. Ask the fuel attendant, to fill till the fuel pump nozzle clicks stop. When it clicks stop you are filled up.
