theadeola: The ATF in it is new, I did a drain and refill last week. I also changed the trans filter recently.
Should I still do the drain and refill again?
Thank you for your response. Replace transmission sir. |

theadeola: Hello house.
my 2003 matrix auto tranny started acting up recently. When changing from gear 1 to 2, it revs up to almost 3000 rpms before changing and going to around 800 rpm. There's also this funny metallic sound when it does this. If I press the accelerator, the car jumps forward and the engine revs up a lot. I've changed the tranny fluid, changed valve body, still same thing.
Scanned the car today and error code for knock sensor was shown. No tranny codes. I'm a bit confused here. The car drove fine up till about 4 days ago when this started.
Any ideas on the issue pls? Fix the knock sensor code, try drain ATF, change Trans filter, check if the transmission sump had been pushed in and push it out. Pour in fresh ATF and test. If it works, you’re fine, if it doesn’t, replace transmission. |

amusaaj33: Guru in the house, my Opel zafira space wagon is over heating. I changed the gasket not quite ago. After a week, the over heating continue. I was advised to double the gasket, change the radiator with bigger cooling fan. I need your advice or recommend a good mechanic within Iju/Ishaga axis. Thanks I don’t know what to advise you to do because I don’t know how well the car was fixed. |

Akpanovic: My problems plenty so I'll try to be as accurate as possible.
I have an Acura TL 2006, Automatic transmission.
1. D Light Blinks when selected and the gear doesn't engage properly unless I move to L and then to D when it's moving. (I'm about changing the transmission fluid)
2. Car overheats mostly when the AC comes on. I have changed the vibrator cap, washed the radiator at car wash without removing the radiator from the car. The fan looks like it's working. I'm at a loss what to do next. No thermostat in the car. Location of the car? If it’s in Abuja, contact me. If it’s out of Abuja contact a competent technician to fix it. |

EgunMogaji2: I wouldn’t recommend biking to anyone in Nigeria especially to an adult that’s starting out.
That N800K will barely cover well made gears.
No more high risk pursuits for me in this country that has deplorable emergency medical response and healthcare.
I can’t really blame my accident on my bike because we were parked when a car came off the road to hit me but the bike actually reduced the impact. My bills are nearing N10M now.
Forget the bike. WTF!!!! 😳 So sorry about this situation you are facing now |

TheGreatIYANU: Good day all,
I currently stay on the mainland but have cause to work on the island for the next 3 months. Due to several factors such as Lagos traffic, budget (I don't have budget for a car) and I've always wanted to own one, I've decided to get a Powerbike to facilitate my movement and fulfil my bike dream.
Budget - ₦800,000 (bike & paraphernalia)
Ps, I have don't know how to drive a Powerbike, but I drive Cars, Trucks and Bicycles.
If you know/have a good Powerbike within my budget for sale, kindly holla. I'd appreciate if you simply post your bike here, pics and specs so the elders can ascertain I'm getting good product.
Your Attn Sirs: @ Gazzuzz @ Egunmogaji2 In my wife’s voice, ‘darling, pls, the only time you were allowed to own a power bike was when you were unmarried and did not have any offspring, the moment you became a father and a husband, that right and privilege was thrown out of the window and into a dungeon never to be found again’.  |
