Please see pic

It's the one close to the radiator

Also attached a pic of the old one I removed (pic 2)


GAZZUZZ:
Take a picture of the position of the oxygen sensor you have be en replacing

AutosRe: ASK GAZZUZZ by lexini: 5:55pm On Oct 17, 2019
Good evening Gazzuz

Trust you're good

Please, I took your advice and changed the oxygen sensor with an old one I had pending when I'd change it completely.

Over the past week, I've put 4 oxygen sensors - after driving for like 10mins, the codes come back and the car begins to misfire again.

Got one today from your referral, same thing

I even changed the spark plugs today.

See codes again

P2196 sensor signal biased/stuck rich bank 1 sensor 1

P0300 random/multiple misfire detected

P0301 cylinder 1 misfire detected

P0303 cylinder 3 misfire detected

P0305 cylinder 5 misfire detected

P0172 System too rich bank 1

Please advise...

Thanks


GAZZUZZ:
well for starters it is a V configuration engine.

You have very faulty precatalytic O2 sensor on bank 1 (1 sensor 1) reporting to the ecu.

The ecu is interpreting the information and enriching the combustion system causing misfires.

Replace the oxygen sensor and clean the spark plugs. Car will be fine

AutosRe: ASK GAZZUZZ by lexini: 3:35pm On Oct 12, 2019
It does


GAZZUZZ:
kindly confirm if Vehicle has a turbo charger
AutosRe: ASK GAZZUZZ by lexini: 1:21pm On Oct 12, 2019
Good afternoon Gazzuz

Thanks once again

My friend uses a 2011 Nissan juke. His complaint is the car goes off when he slows down (with the ac on).
The car also does hardstarting, especially when the engine is cold.
I scanned the car and got the following codes:

P0078 exhaust valve control solenoid circuit bank 1
P0075 intake valve control solenoid circuit bank 1
P0045 turbocharger supercharger boost control solenoid A circuit/open

Pending codes
P0098 intake air temperature sensor 2 circuit high
P0031 h20s heater control circuit low bank 1 sensor 1

These issues started after the car overheated and the top gasket was changed

Please assist

Car is fine now!!

Thanks Gazzuz!!!

2003 Toyota highlander awd v6


Can I use it till weekend before fixing?

oluwaseunla:
Which car is this? Something seems to be happening at the bank 1 of your engine, and all three cylinders of that bank are misfiring. The smell is likely the fact that the car is running rich. Cases like this may not be easily diagnosed remotely. Check in to a workshop.
Car TalkRe: Car Talk Chat Room by lexini: 7:47pm On Oct 08, 2019
Good evening gurus

Please help me out here:

2003 Toyota highlander awd v6

I travelled and my wife has been driving my car for the past week, just got back home and as I started the car, it didn't sound right so I scanned it and got the following codes:

P2196 sensor signal biased/stuck rich bank 1 sensor 1

P0300 random/multiple misfire detected

P0301 cylinder 1 misfire detected

P0303 cylinder 3 misfire detected

P0305 cylinder 5 misfire detected

P0172 System too rich bank 1

P0174 system too lean bank 2

Please advise on the meaning of each code and possible fixes. 


Also, there was a smell as if something is burning - I started the car soon as soon as my wife returned with it so engine was still hot.

Car TalkRe: Car Talk Chat Room by lexini: 7:24am On Sep 26, 2019
Good morning gurus,

The scariest thing happened just now

My mum entered her car and the car just started by itself - the key was still in her hand (car doesn't have remote).

It is a 2004 Toyota sienna xle, she got it last month tokunbo. she's freaking out now.

What is the likely reason for this?

AutosRe: Total Cost Of Clearing A Vehicle In Nigeria by lexini:
Guys,

how much to clear 2007 - 2011 Toyota Avalon (RORO Grimaldi)
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 12:47am On Sep 25, 2019
Thanks bro

banky3w:
XLS is basically almost a stripped down Limited. It does not get keyless ignition, rain sensing wipers, ventilated seats and memory seats but can get navigation and radar cruise control as option. It does not get JBL synthesis 12 speakers audio too. The screenshot below can help for more clarification.
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 9:44pm On Sep 24, 2019
thanks bro

now, whats the difference between the xls and the limited edition?

i saw online that the avalon has 4 trims - xl, xls, limited and touring



banky3w:
Nope. Though they have same engine and body. The Touring is designed to be sporty by having a tighter suspension and a larger wheel. Inside, it has an all black interior and aluminium trims. The Limited edition on the other hand is geared towards maximum luxury with simulated wood trims, keyless ignition, heated and ventilated seats, rain sensing wipers, optional navigation and adaptive cruise control. Those features are not in the limited edition. If you wanna buy the avalon and you like car techs, I'll advise you go for the limited edition. Not much price difference though.
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 4:33pm On Sep 24, 2019
guys,

is the avalon touring edition same as the limited edition?


banky3w:
The Limited edition avalon is the sweetest thing that has ever happened since sliced bread grin grin
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 12:53pm On Sep 22, 2019
Alright

Thanks radautoworks


radautoworks:
Yup. XL is base typically with cloth seats and XLS typically with leather, display and other bells and whistles
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 11:19pm On Sep 21, 2019
Thanks nurey

Which trim is the most luxurious for the Avalon? The XLS?

nurey:
The GS350 is higher in luxury, technology and more expensive in parts and maintenance than the others.

The ES350 and Avalon shares Engine but the ES shares other parts with Camry of same year. Depending on what trim of the ES and Avalon in question, I did say the ES is higher than Avalon the Avalon is a luxurious vehicle too just that it carries a Toyota badge.
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 11:17pm On Sep 21, 2019
Thanks radautoworks

radautoworks:
Having worked for Toyota in the past, I'd take an Avalon. It doesn't get respect in Nigeria but dollar for dollar, it's more bang for your buck. Also, in Nigeria it will be unique. Everyone and they Mama got an es or gs
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 7:36pm On Sep 21, 2019
My people,

Compare Lexus es350/gs350 with a Toyota Avalon.

2008/2009

In terms of luxury, reliability, technology, availability/affordability of parts.

In short, every other thing except engine power ��

Don't be obnoxious. His question had nothing to do with buying a car. I believe you have your own thread.


GS350 uses the 2GR-FSE. Engine is 1.5m.

No idea about the GS300.

How much is the engine and gear for the gs?



BLAIDE:
I don't like the seat of the IS. And its interior is cramped.
My choice would be the GS, but I hear the engine is expensive
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 5:26pm On Sep 15, 2019
Thanks.

Why would you buy the is 250 though?

What of ground clearance for bad lagos roads?

How comfortable is it for a tall driver driving long distances?

HeavenlyBang:
Best to worst.
Cost of ownership: ES>IS>GS
Fuel consumption: IS>ES>GS
Resale value: GS>IS>ES
Comfort:GS>ES>IS
Driving experience: GS>IS>ES

I'd buy the IS250.
Car TalkRe: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by lexini: 11:52am On Sep 15, 2019
Gurus in the house

Please compare the following Lexus sedans

2007 ES 350
2007 GS 350

In terms of cost of maintenance, fuel consumption, resale value, comfort and driving experience, etc
