AutoManual:
Former owner of my car use water. The worst part is the the car short water. Although he told me he top water every two days before I buy it. When I bought it brought out the radiator and notice it has been work severally. I thought there was not need working on it again. Let me just buy new one. But from my inquiries the price is very much at the moment. So I continue using the radiator and toping the water like that.

It's not easy toping water every now and than as one usually forgets. I took the radiator out to be work on. I know that will be the last work that will be done on the radiator before it would be replaced.

The guy assured me it will not leak of he tackles on the leaks.

When he finished I installed the radiator and filled with water. I am still observing if there would be leaks.

I was checking on coolant online but the price nor be here. Considering the leaking my rediator it wouldn't be wise.

If I can buy new radiator it would make more since but not with this one.

But if this radiator doesn't leak for now. Is it wise to use coolant?

Sell the motor buy radiator and coolant

Las las everybody go dey alright!

CHIGIM:

Djreloaded:
yen yen yen. Forget any bandwagon effect, you're not taking any TX over a Gle.

davillian:
We know cars that can match these cars but it's certainly not a lexus or a Toyota.....
So if I give you a new 2020 Benz gle you would reject and take rx350 2020
Even with free maintenance.....

No hyping what’s not needed. I’d take the RX, it’s no brainer, I’ve owned an RX330 for 6.5years and NO break down. Most lexus owners can attest to the quality of what they are driving.

Finally it boils down to preference, but saying a GLE will out do a lexus RX, I’d be forced to ask by what margins? Repair bills or what?

davillian:
If you have the money to buy a BMW or a benz and can comfortably maintain them
You good..
If you've not driven a benz or a BMW you won't know how smooth these cars are compared to those Japanese rubbish .....

The haters have arrived with their usual stereotyping.
It may interest you to know lexus produces some of the most quietest and smoothest running cars in the industry when compared to rivals of same market segments and price tags. Let’s not get started on the usual boring talk that toyota or Japanese isn’t as good as the German rivals cos there are proofs to show otherwise.

Coolexty:
Gurus in the house, please I need to compare these cars in terms of fuel consumption, availability of parts and maintenance cost.

2006 BMW X3
2008 BMW X5
2008 Toyota Avalon

Person Dey call top of the line flagship sedan and flagship suv and entry level premium suv and the person Dey concerned about fuel economy and maintenance cost?

Baba, go buy Corolla or civic and rest!

blackfm:
Help please

DM pls, 07034581213

CHIGIM:
wow.
Thanks for the help but finally the problem was the fuel rail pressure sensor

if it were the fuel rail pressure sensor, it would had popped up a code related to that sensor.

In all, I’m glad your car has been fixed and it’s back on the road.

[quote author=DynamicR post=122538222][/quote]Clear codes, drive for some days and accumulate over 50km distance, then rescan and post codes you got.

Omotakins:
Same scenario plays out with my Honda baby boy. It doesn't go beyond 4000rpm while accelerating. Also, the transmission doesn't shift to 5 but ends at 4 which makes the rpm to rise above 3 just @ 80km/hr. Any way out?

Scss as n and post codes.

dionpholly:
Good day everyone, pls am having issue with my corolla 2007 car,,, i just changed the back engine seat, but the issue am having now is that, the body of the car starts shaking when the car is on reverse.

Re-check ALL engine and transmission mounts. Also, ensure you use genuine brand new or correct tokunbo mounts.

wazklin:
Is he in Abuja? What's his contact

Hello 07034581213

Djreloaded I owe you one pot of nkwobi for recommending me even tho you hate me

DynamicR:
Please I drive a corrola 2005/2006, but it has been giving issue. It usually goes off when I am accelerating and might not start again after sometime. First of all, it will not accelerate and then it will just stop.

Note:
I have changed plugs, serviced noozle and also changed fuel pump.

This problem still remains. All the mechanic I have met do not have solutions to it, and even car electricians too are also confused.

Please help me so that I can use the car without this frustration.

Scan car post codes

haywhy59:
Can you recommend any honda technician in lagos

No

DerFuhrer:
Thanks boss, if I could just quiz you a little bit more, the crv 10 or is250 07/08?

07034581213

haywhy59:
I'm not in Abuja bro, I'm in lagos, what could be the problem, because I tried to scan the car, nothing comes out as no check engine light

I don’t know the problem unless I or a competent technician checks it

Give yourself brains and avoid palava by avoiding that sonata. The engine is plagued with a factory error of piston slap and overtime will damage the engine. Engine prices range from 1.2-1.8m

haywhy59:
Goodmorning, good work you are doing, my honda accord 2008 shuts off while driving , this happened yesterday, immediately it shuts off, I start ,it works again, No CEL.

Pls stop driving that car on public roads unless a competent technician checks and correct such malfunction.

If you are in abuja, contact me for a thorough diagnosis.

Hazardinho:
Good evening all,
Please I want to know the average time(number of months) to change transmission fluid for a Toyota Camry 2007.

P.S: I use Type T-IV AT fluid

Your transmission requires type WS. I advise folks to change ATF every 30k miles or 2 years

justdollars:
Good day car gurus. Thanks for all the assistance here.

My Honda Accord 07 doesn't revv beyond 3000rpm. Again if I step on the clutch pedal forcefully for fast acceleration, the car will be jerking and when I release my foot, car drives fine if I press pedal gently.

Cars idles fine. No jerking while idle only jerks when I forcefully step hard on the pedal. What could likely be the challenge?

Scan and post codes here. Looks like someone’s VTC solenoid or sensor Is out.

RamseyKush:
He shouldn't have waited that long though..

I know quite well that man has started banging probably 6 months after her demise..

He just decided to make it official...

Life goes on

A stupid idiotic comment spotted!
It seem like you had a brain fart when you posted this rather silly comment.

CHIGIM:
Please what's an ECM

tony360:
Good evening, pls
1. my corolla 2006 shows error code p0420 catalyst system efficiency below threshold when scanned. How can I fix it.
2. The fog light and parking light always stay on when the engine is running. Is there a way to switch it off at interval.

P0420 needs a tokunbo or genuine brand new catalytic converter or you go the cheaper route of installing a spacer.

For the lights, have your electrician check it,

blendz4real:
Thanks bro. I was just curious and scared when I noticed this from placing a hand on the transmission casing.

How about the ideal fluid? It's been 3years and never has the ATF been changed.

Thank you in anticipation of your response again.

Have a competent technician drain and refill the transmission with same volume of ATF. Ensure he used genuine Type WS

Gaggii:
Please advice, if you have done penis enlargement before, or if you know anyone that has done it.

Is there any side effects?

My babe is complaining seriously about my penis size.

Am considering enlarging it, but I want to be sure of the side effects.

There some annoying sounds I here when having fun with her, she says is because my dick is small.

My personal opinion, ditch her. Get someone else preferably a virgin and start your sex life.

Sirchiboy:
What could make a car to fail to start then remove the battery and it start

I dunno o. Pls have a competent technician check it carefully.

AutoManual:
look for 2015 accord Nigeria used.

3m and the tool below

Kingkyle1:
Toyota landcruiser PRADO
2022 upgraded version, v8 model.

AC intact
Everything good.

Price is million naira.
Location Enugu
Number 09029024659

This car isn't mine for those dropping distasteful comments. Nothing is hidden here . I like the criticisms because anyone buying must have taken some stuff into considerations.
It's not my fault that it's refurbished, upgraded or pegged at 16million. If you want to buy, you can debate that with the owner, I am just advertising.

Make seller and owner carry the tool below, them go sell above 35m

smartistics:
The IAT sensor is bad if the shut down the engine after clearing, you can as well check for broken wires around the harness.

Most times, that IAT sensor fails because of clogged intake air cleaner which starves the sensor of adequate cold air supply.

smartistics:
LOL.. maybe he thought the tranny should be cold while the engine runs hot.

Local mokalik is in shock shaaa.

Originakalokalo:
With Ac and brake pressed while on DRIVE, rpm drops to 500 and car shudders.

Aside this, car drives well.

Honda Accord 2007.



Any advice?

Check vacuum hoses, check brake booster, check throttle body.

blendz4real:
Greetings,

My Toyota Camry 07 gear casing gets slightly hot after 1hr continuous driving.

What could be responsible for this?

Also what ATF should I use to change the oil?

Thank you

How do you mean your gear casing gets slightly hot after 1hr of continuous driving?
How did you find out this?
Isn’t your car drive train meant to get considerably hot due to friction and heat?
Does it in anyway affect the car drivability?
