Hello guys. I scan my Honda Civic with my OBD11 scanner and I got this code. What should I tell the technician to work on please

Disconnect and reconnect the Mass Air Flow Sensor, check it’s fuse if it’s shaking, check the wiring if rodents has been chewing it.

Unless op is in the business of towing stuff, truck torque is irrelevant.

This has to be the most incorrect comment I’ve read this week/weekend.
I give up!

buygala:
There is nothing "raw power" about the 235hp Forerunner V8 engine...

It’s got impressive torque. For trucks, it’s not about horsepowers, but torque figures

Please I need the help of experts here. I drive a 2005 Camry. I noticed that when I on ignition mostly in the morning, the car pushes out some white smoke and some pungent smell from the exhaust. This normalizes after some time. I complained to my mechanic who suggested I use Hadex oil for servicing but it has continued to bring out smoke and the smell.

Please what may be the cause and how do I fix it please.

Tomorrow morning when you start the car, take pictures of the smoke and upload. By the way, is the coolant/water or oil experiencing shortage?

olaboyeh:
how complicated is it please and estimated repair cost

It involves your timing system. It should be done by only a qualified person. Cost is determined by a lot of factor which I may not be able to state here.

Hopefully, when one or more control or communication modules fails, you’d be the one to come help him out.
In a bid to hype your dearly beloved brand, you are out there misleading uninformed people either consciously or subconsciously.

Thanks for the prompt response. Unfortunately I am in PH. Anyone you can hook me up with?

For now, none.

Hello Nairaland, I need expert advise on what needs to be done. My 2017 Toyota RAV4 tailgate(boot) opens by itself whenever I park on just starting the engine. And it keeps closing halfway and then opens again intermittently. I can spend 15mins trying to have this closed. Once it closes, it opens again by itself if I don't lock the car immediately. I have check to see there is nothing obstructing it from closing yet the problem persist. Kindly help.

Check the body control module, boot ECM, power rear hatch actuator and boot struts. One or more may had been damaged or has lost communication. If you’re in Abuja, feel free to contact me to diagnose and fix this issue.

Mileage is still around 55,000 though i doubt it becuase the speedometer wasn't working when i bought it, It is fixed now though. The car engine was changed years back and i don't have any history info of water intrusion.

Bought the car in April 2023 Nigerian used. If I can trace what is making the coils fail in a short time, then i have got it all solved to enjoy my ride.

Ok

Good morning mature men and women in the house. Please I need your help on this topic.

My Fiancee told me about how her biological dad abandoned her and her mum after getting her mum pregnant.

Her mum later married another man who adopted her as his child.

Now she's grown and I've proposed to her, I wanted to go for her official introduction and list collection.

Would it not be nice to hear the biological father's opinion? Should I just ignore the fact that the man is still alive and proceed with the marriage arrangement?

Although she said I should not bother about that, but this is Nigeria and as an Akwa Ibomite I don't think it's proper. Although she's against me trying to find out about the man's opinion. Should I care?

What can you say about this?

Note: she only told me that the man abandoned them, but what if it was her mum that actually took her away?

Thank you

Contact your mechanic or your parts dealer. The author of this thread isn’t based in Lagos, he is based in Abuja.

Mayeldah:
Thanks bro, it is not overheating and I recently changed the plugs too. I will get an electrician to check it out.

What’s the mileage on the car and were those the original coils that came from factory with the car, are the coils genuine toyota coils and was there any water intrusion into the coil compartment?

Mayeldah:
My Highlander 03's ignition coil keeps failing, I have changed two of it since I bought the vehicle in April but this week the car keeps stalling on the road while driving, it jerks a little while running idle.
What can I do to resolve this permanently. Everything else works fine except this constantly failing ignition coil and plugs.

Someone with a solution should help.

Your Car should be checked by an electrician. Hope your car’s Sparkplugs are not worn out, the wiring harness wasn’t cut and joined in a manner than can cause electrician glitches and hope the car isn’t experiencing overheating issues?

blendz4real:
Got the engine oil reduced to normal level, scanned the car today. A code C1330 came. The guy cleared and scanned again then no code came up again and check engine light went off.

Good morning great men

*Camry 07*
After topping engine oil, mechanic mistakenly over guage.
Check engine light disappeared.
After a week check engine light comes on. Engine oil still above guage.
Should I drain a little oil out?
Could something else be responsible for the check engine light coming on.
Thank you all in anticipation.

Reduce oil quantity to appropriate level, scan car to show codes and post codes here let’s advise you on what to do.

Good evening esteemed car gurus.
My car a Toyota Corolla 2010 automatic transmission model is having serious gear issues.

It started when I took it to mechanic to change gear box cop and shaft because of the noise it makes and constant vibrations. After changing all these the car started having sluggish movement, skips and de-accelerates on motion. At times when I pedal on motion it will be as if no gear was engaged until it picks. I was advised to change the gear oil, clean filter and plugs which I have done but the issue still continued. Pls car experts what could be the cause of this problem and where can I fix it in Abuja.

Thank you.

Ask your mechanic to check the oil and throttle position sensor (tps). If it’s fine replace gear.

Please can someone explain to me the reason why the users of this kind of particular GLE doesn't use license number plate?

Personal decision and preferences.

Good day kingreign, my 2003 2az-fe Camry shorts engine oil. I noticed that oil escapes through a hose from the valve cover through air filter pipe to idle air control valve. My oil drops massively after 3wks of service.

Replace PCV valve, top up oil to appropriate levels, check for leaks fix it, observe if oil burns or escape.

adubam:
Boss Kingrein well done. I was using Mobil 20w50 and my RPM rarely moved to 4000rpm except moving upward a hill it was usually at 2000 - 3000 rpm . Since I changed to Shell Hellix 20w 50 moving up to 4000rpm occurs often. I'm confused now if to go back to Mobil or continue with the Shell Helix. Camry 2.2.

Find out why it does so. Your car doesn’t use a a VVT system so scan it.
