Engine would need to be opened up to ascertain damage, but from your description it’s sounds like it threw a rod |

mickydroid: Please guys, I just got a gs350 2007...it was misfiring on cylinder 6...I was getting 2 codes...p0206 and p0306...
I changed all spark plugs and it dint rectify...I moved the ignition coil and still got that same p0206 on cylinder 6...I finally serviced all 12 injectors...and discovered that one of the injectors at cylinder 6 had a loose wire....
I fixed the wire and the car is now very stable but now the new issue is that the injector on that cylinder is pouring excess fuel..and it is now affecting the starting of the car and a blue smoke now coming off the exhaust...I know it means burning oil too
So please I need a lexus mechanic in lagos...I stay at berger I’m In Opic estate which is like 10-15mins away from Berger. How did you ascertain that the cylinder 6 injector was pouring fuel from the injectors. Is it through fuel trims data or there was still a misfire code for cylinder 6 Secondly, are you sure of the blue smoke cause with the car running rich you’ll most likely get black smoke from the exhaust. Is the car check engine light still on Lastly, was there any signs of smoke from the exhaust prior to the fix |

udosam: I just discovered that my Toyota Camry 08 throttle plate actuator hose is not connected to the throttle at all.
One end of the hose is connected to the intake valve (I think) while the other end that is supposed to be connected to the throttle valve is not connected (they now use something to block the hose)
My car has been rough idling especially when the engine is hot. Could this be the cause?
My engineer in the house, pls help. Very possible if you have vacuum issues which that exposed hose could cause in other not to fly blindly, get the car scanned, check fuel trim data also to know what we’re dealing with. I’ve also included a picture of your manifold is that the hose you’re referring to ?

Car Talk › Re: Advice please: Is 3m Too Good For A Honda Civic 2008 Repainted? by Louiscars: 7:33pm On Jun 14, 2025 |
tundeayo2020: I am about to purchase a new ride, Honda civic 2008 here in Lagos, however the car seems too good to be true. I heard cars are now retailing for 8million or there about, is 3m too good to be true for a 2008 Honda civic naija used??
Also what are the red flags to look out for? I drove the car everything seems clean. There's another alternative which is another civic from a different seller going for 2m but the owner said engine is smoking and I may have to change it and then it has bad, not too clean exterior but the interior is super clean.
If you were me, which is better? Fix and repair the bad one at 2m, I did my calculations with about 1m it should be back to my taste, Or just go for this 3.1m Honda civic that was repainted and I need to fill gas
The bad one with the smoking engine, the ac still works, very cold. The one with the clean 2nd or 3rd body does not work, seller says I just need to top the gas.
I am really confused right now. Another alternative will be to go for Honda DC. The ones I've checked so far, the prices range from 2.7m to 3.8m for naija used.
By the way my source of searching is jiji. This will be my second car, I presently drive a Nissan which is about to kill me A Honda civic for 3m shouldn’t be that bad if it has been properly maintained. Just make sure you get someone to check the car before purchasing. Secondly, the civic worth 2m sure might seem like a good deal, but also consider the fact you said it’ll need body works, a car with a bad engine but good body would be a good buy but one with a bad body might take a lot to make it look appealing, truth is, you might not get that car looking good especially if it has been painted severally of there are signs of body fillers. I’m talking from my own little experience. |
