Scanned my 2007 Honda Accord with Torque and got this error.....Still don't get what it means even after checking online.

I'm not in Abuja, however the scan after the last work showed that cylinder 1 is misfiring...the electrician said the issue is from the top cylinder.
Carry out compression tests on all cylinders and post the results here.

Hello friends, my rx400h tailgate is failing. If I tried to open from key or from the button inside the car but it will refuse to open until after I've run the car for like 10 minutes. Does it requires recalibrating after removing car battery because that's the only thing I did that could I suspect.

Also, the gear handle is stiff when changing from park to reverse to neutral and to drive and back.

Thanks.
For thr tailgate, check the tailgate struts, they may be weak or worn out, also, check the auto tail gate opening and closing mechanism, it may be worn out.
For the gear shifter, you should check the shift cable that runs from the shifter stick to the transmission.

Have you scanned it and have it properly diagnosed?
If yes, what's the results?
If no, and you're in Abuja, feel free to contact me.

This require physical professional diagnosis.
Car Talk › Re: Turbo Failure In My 2022 Honda Accord,sport Trim. by kingreign(m): 6:30am On Nov 21, 2025
sooperrescue:
Have you checked if the car is supposed to be using premium unleaded fuel only? That's the reason for the failed turbo in most cars.
Oil quality and oil change duration, inefficient and ineffective cooling are the most common causes of failure of turbos, FOD (foreign object damage) cause turbo failure too.

These three factors are the major causes of failure of turbo. Fuel quality may cause it but its not as common as these three factors. Learn to research properly before speaking.



Pro tip for turbo car owners:
When you drive for a long distance, or after performing a spirited driving and you arrived at your destination, DO NOT JUST immediately switch off your car, doing this is called HOT STOP and would create HEAT SPOTS, its harmful for the turbo and the health of the engine itself, instead, 2-5mins before you get to your destination, reduce your hard spirited driving or ease off on the driving gradually, then park at your destination, still allow the car to idle for 2-3minutes to allow oil and coolant flow thru the turbo and the engine. This will aid proper uniform cooling of the engine, prevent coking, and cooking of the oil. Doing this will prolong he life of your engine and turbos.

The car is actually neat and interior as well. Close to Belgium. I'm enjoying the ride now. Smooth. The oil was changed. Coolant as well. As for the other complains on seats-- it's electrical, I got a good rewire that handled it. Everything works well.

The overheating was due to a pipe that cut that supplies coolant to the radiator.

I even scratched the front bumper of the car as I'm still learning. Our road is very bad. And I hit the bottom that bursted the AC pipe and all the gas leaked and the fan stopped working.

But the rewire handled everything.

Thank you.

Good morning, guys.
I have a problem with my 2004 Corolla. When on park, the RPM rises to 2 on its own; after adjustments, it happened again. I got mechanics to check and they said it's injector mouth that needs replacement. I went to Ladipo to get another, but the problem persisted. I even had the car scanned and no injector issue reported.

Can any experienced car person be of help, please? The issue is giving me concerns.
have the iacv checked and also check for vacuum leaks around the intake area.

Call me on 07068456570. The hitachi electronic throttle body is notorious to act up sometimes after a long journey. If you are the type that diconnect your battery terminals frequently, that would happen.
this is not true. I've driven quite a number of infiniti and Nissan with the Hitachi throttle body for long distance and I can tell you that your assertion is false.

Hmmm.... Done CT scan, nothing wrong with the brain. Done eye test, it is fine.
whenever you get migrane, boil some water, (it should be hot, but not hot enough to scald or burn you), put your legs into it and soak them, it dilates your blood vessels in your feet to relieve your upper extremities and head of blood pressures and causes the migrane to go.

Happy new day wonderful people of NL.
A close friend of mine has been having severe migraine that seems to be increasing with each passing year. This is gradually putting her in a state of depression as the medication she has been taking (Lexotan) is not working effectively on her again. She's scared of tramadol addiction so she had to disregard it upon the Doctor's prescription.

This has given me much concern on how to help but just don't know how to. I confirmed it has no cure. The pain transfers to her ears, eyes and now to her tooth which made her to remove the tooth of recent (Doctor's suggestion).

She goes through this experience at least 2-3 times every week which makes her to take the drugs in excess as it's now almost non-effective.

Those who have experience + Doctors in the house, is there any means (herbal or any surgery) that can help?
A quick relief can be gotten when she put her foot in hot water (not hot enough to scald or cause burns) for a while.

Good afternoon Landers,

Please my fx35 infinity doesn't accelerate well after it's heated up, but when I turn it off and on again, it picks up as supposed.

I took it to a gear master to get it scanned, but couldn't detect any issues with the gear, I replaced some sensors like knock, starting sensors, but It still happens occasionally especially when i use it for a long journey.

Can someone recommend a sharp fx35 infiniti mechanic
Scan and post codes here lemme help you out. I'm sure it's gonna be front brake solenoid malfunction code inside the transmission.

My landcruiser lx470 shows "A/T oil temp", could someome help. Car becomes sluggish, refuses to accelerate. This happens after driving normally for like 10 minutes
Stop driving it, scan that car transmission if any code comes up, you know what to do, if none comes, you'd need to delve deeper to finding the reasons why it does that. If you keep driving that car with that fault, you'd destroy the transmission. It's not a cheap transmission. If you're in Abuja, feel free to contact me for diagnostics and repairs.

Hi sir

The 2016 GLE43 Coupe I’m working on shows this DTC code. When you drive the car at high speed, an error message appears (see image 1). After diagnosing it, this DTC code comes up (see image 2). What could be the cause?
You should have a competent technican check and fix that car. It's not a remote diagnosis grammar. If you are in Abuja, feel free to contact me.

Hi all does 450000 mileage foreign 2010 Toyota Camry good deal
If it was a taxi in its former life, let it go. If its a fleet car or a personal car. Check its records and service history. If they are well documented and its service has been meticulous, go for it.

Highway mileage cars are better than city driven cars with low mileage that are stuck idling in traffic for long hours in stop and go traffic.


In the end, it still ultimately rest on you to decide.

Stop writing unnecessary long sentences.
You come off as unenlightened.
You don't need to engage hand brake at all times..
Who told you such gibberish?
You're the unenlightened one here sir (no offense meant).
If this is how you drive or operate a vehicle, I won't trust you going anywhere near a car for good. Your car shouldn't be park and resting on its parking pawl or gear. You should use your parking brakes EVERYTIME IRRESPECTIVE OF TERRAIN

Nothing like nonsense here, let's be guarded what we type please.
If there's a mixup in the year of manufacture and you think it's something else, then state it here plainly pls.

It could be 1997 or '99 or whatever, the main thing here is the PRODUCT. If you really want to buy, you can call for inspection.

Available. The owner just bought a new car and seeks to sell this his former car.

Just so you know, he is very correct. You're wrong.
It's a GS300 not a CE300.
Also, that car didn't come from factory with a 1MZ v6 engine. It came with a 2JZ i6 engine.

Good morning, everyone.

I drive a 2008 RX350 that runs perfectly well — the engine is quiet and performs like a turbo.

However, there’s one issue that’s been bothering me. The car starts instantly in the morning, but if I turn it off and try to start it again after about 30 minutes, it usually takes 2–3 attempts before it comes on. Interestingly, if I keep the key turned (cranking) during the first attempt (after it has been turned off for a while), it eventually starts.

Does anyone know what could be causing this?
Have you scanned and diagnosed this car?

Your car has a problem with the transmission. You should check it out ASAP. Stop driving it.

Hello, my engine check light was on, and there is noise from one hose taking air or gas into the engine. The engine is jerking or jumping and the RPM indicator is jumping up and down. What is the problem and can I still drive this car ?
It's very fine. That's how a 1954 studebaker drives.
