Hello all,

So I went for a wheel alignment and balancing, this is my second time in 3 weeks because the first person didn't do a good job, so I sought for another location.

However this second person still did not fix the issue. I already had the legs checked and changed the linkages and tie rod in the Feb. So it's too early again for it to be the legs.

Meanwhile something strange happened, the guy doing the alignment, removed the horn cover on my steering and then tightened the centre nut that connects the steering in the middle

Now my steering feels a bit hard and I am concerned about this, is this a normal part of alignment process

Na frustration make me allow am ooo now I wish I didn't
It's an accord 2015
What he did basically is re-Aligning the steering wheel so the vehicle drives straight and most likely it was over tightened

.

I actually want to. Know the different oils to be used.
Like gear oil, brake oil, transmission oil
I’m not quite sure if it’s the v6 you went for but if it is
- transmission fluid - HONDA Automatic Transmission Fluid ATF DW-1
- Brake fluid - HONDA Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3 ( you’d probably not get this specific one but really any good DOT 3 brake fluid, again emphasis on the DOT3 )

The oil that was changed is Morrison 5w30
Hmm. Honestly I haven’t heard of this brand before maybe other contributors who have used it can help give a review on it but the oil grade ( 5w30 ) is fine for that far.

Greetings everyone .Just got a honda 2014 . From what I read , bad oil is the main factor damaging Car engine .
Plewee recommend the necessary oil and maintenance I need to carry out on my car.
Thanks alot
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉, you finally got the Honda, for your oil grade you can use 5w30 from a reputable brand ( also make sure it’s not fake ) I’d recommend Liquimoly though I’ve used it multiple times on both European and Japanese marques and honestly they get the job done

my maf is between 2.5 to 3.6 g/s and o2 reading is between 0.1 and 0.9v.i believer these are normal. My point is, over and under - reporting of these should not be doing 10 MPG for a 1.8 liter engine..

Calculated engine load around 31%. Intake MAP 33kpa
Something isn’t right for sure, hashed you tried taking out the nozzles, then probably have shops with all this ultrasonic fuel injector cleaner to analyze the spraying pattern to rule out leaky injectors

I will do a video but from what have seen, the stft at operating temperature hover around -3 to -14 and sometimes as high as - 24.have seen minus - 48 before. But quickly return back. I also expect my fuel trim to be lower at optimum but nothing has changed.
If I start up in the morning, my ltft will initially rise to as high - 21 and later settle at - 17 or - 18, no matter the distance covered.

The rate at which my stft jump at times is so aggressive. Something very serious is happening somewhere that sensors replacement can't correct
On idle what is the gm/sec of the Maf sensor
Also what voltage does the upstream 02 sensor give also

Car TalkRe: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Louiscars: 9:16am On Apr 18
haykay2005:
Please, I really need help before I give up on this car.
I have a 2006/2007 Honda Civic and the fuel consumption is extremely bad , it’s behaving like a V8 engine. This is far beyond normal, and I don’t believe simple sensor errors alone should cause this level of consumption.

Here’s my situation:

• I’ve replaced parts that were throwing codes (02 sensors, MAF sensors, Purge valve, Egr Valve, ect2 sensors, no hose leak anywhere, air filter changedl, plugs changed,thermostat)
• Fixed the cooling fan (now working at factory settings)
• Reset ECU multiple times
• At every refill, I reset my trip meter
Real example:
• 16 liters → only 40 miles (~64 km) . That's around 10 MPG
This is draining me financially.
I’ve spent close to ₦800,000 on diagnostics, repairs, and parts — moving from one mechanic/rewire to another with no real solution. Even tried a well-recommended workshop in Oyingbo — still trial and error.
Another example:
• ₦20,000 fuel finished just from Abule Egba → Airport → back
This is not sustainable.

Current observations:

• Spark plugs are brown (no oil, no black soot)
• Engine runs relatively smooth , with a little vibration(I just realized my mount is bad and that could be he reason for the vibration)
• LTFT around -21%
• No major current fault codes
• Mechanics here don’t seem familiar with proper fuel pressure testing , so I haven’t done that
I’m honestly exhausted and frustrated. I don’t have access to highly experienced professionals, and I keep wasting money without solving the problem.
Please:
What could cause this level of fuel consumption on a 1.8L engine?
What should I check next that others might be missing?
Any serious, experience-based advice would be greatly appreciated. I honestly don’t know what to do. Pple just dey refer me to their pple on man know man. At the end na rubbish

I will appreciate someone on the mainland, I have met with pple with advanced scanners. some only have tools, they cant solve problem
When the car has gotten to operating temp do a video of the short term fuel trim value

Can wrapped rotor cause vibration when accelerating?

I thought it's when braking?
From your initial post you said you feel the vibrations to while braking sometimes
Car TalkRe: Steering Wheel Vibrating At 80kmh. by Louiscars: 8:22pm On Apr 13
minista94:
Okay thanks, I took to an mechanic and there's a small bent at one of the rear rim, just a little bent,

Could that be the issue? Because he said it might be the cause but I doubt since the bent is just very little and it's at the back
wheel
That is also possible too even slight deformation with any suspension component can cause issues like this, if you have a spare tire they can put on for the mean time to test if it the wheel
