Please Mayor2013,is there anyway i can check if my catalyst is missing or stolen?
mayor2013:


Revert to your owners manual for fuel MPG. That would tell you what your car's fuel consumptionn rate should be both for city driving and highway driving.

As for your first fault error it means your catalytic converter located up stream is detoirating or has detoirated which ever the case may be. It needs to be replaced. I hope yours hasnt been stolen. Depending on the design of yours would be determine if the exhaust needs to be taken out or not for a visibility check

As for your second fault error. Boost pressure solenoid valve. That soleniod or sensor which ever yours is hardly spoils check connection. Could be unplugged. If spoilt replaces. This helps regulate air intake which inturns is used to actual fuel injection. You could have a case of misfire if bad or your car would stall as well . Location should be along vacuum hose that goes from your airfilter box into throttle body or located on the inlet manifold. Note- location might not be for your ride.

Please i need advice on how to go around this code on my car. I have 2006 Passat 2.0TFSI i bought as Toks not too long ago,but did not scan it prior to making the payment.The dashboard was clean with no code display,Engine sound cool and i only used a full tank (60L)+20L( toped up at Ihiala Anambra state) of fuel driving the car from Cotonu to Port Harcourt city ( Good fuel economy). My problem is i recently scanned the car and this code come up:
Catalyst System; Bank 1
P0420 - 002 - Efficiency Below Threshold - MIL ON
008801 - Boost Pressure Control Valve (N249)
P2261 - 008 - Mechanical Malfunction - Intermittent
I cleared the code and P2261 never came back, but P0420 still persist.
From the search i did online, it should be consuming fuel but am yet to notice that on highway drive.Not sure of City driving. 15L fuel last about 4 days driving within city ( tro and fro from work daily of about 2 hour both including heavy traffic).

My Question is:
1. Is the fuel consumption Ok?
2. Is there a way to solve the issue with the catalyst system?

Thanks Guys in advance

Career / Re: Should I Resign My New Job For A Contract Job? by lukman22: 11:26am On Apr 12, 2016
I disagree with you. How do you know the 100k JoB has job security? you said you know some guys that worked with shell for 15 years and were later dumped? i think i would better work for shell with a good package for 15 years and be dumped than working for a package of 100k which am not sure how secure the Job is.with good package with shell for 15 years,i think one suppose to have setup a backup system that will generate income apart from his primary Job.
Freksy:


If the facts in bold are lacking in shell's, forget it!

The probability of being retained in shell after the 4 years is less than 1/1000.

I know guys who worked with shell on contract term for more than 15 years and were later dumped. Don't even think they were not good at or dedicated to their job.

I prefer a dish of corn with peace of mind to that of meat with mental stress.

Nothing is as good as having a secured job. A bit less than 100k, to me, is ok for a start. What you do with it is what really count.



Career / Re: Should I Resign My New Job For A Contract Job? by lukman22: 11:18am On Apr 12, 2016
Bekky,I suggest you take the shell opportunity.
i work with shell as a contract staff too.Initially, i was given 4 months contract,but now this is my 6th year plus with shell and counting.
Recently,( No,2015) i was moved to a new(better than previous position) department.
what am trying to say here is, you will have more opportunity when you join shell no matter contract staff or not.
just pray over it
Cheers

Family / Re: I Feel so Angry With My Husband. Help! by lukman22: 2:22am On Apr 04, 2016
Cutehector:
Madam gv ur husband space.. forget the being lonely part. U want him healed ryt? Den let him be..

If u are lonely, dis ls the moment u engage in other activities.. wen he has calmed down, he'l just get bak to u.
I beg to disagree. Mind u this is a few months marriage and this is when new couples tend to connect to discuss abt what's lies ahead. This is the time to share love,feel loved,share more time together etc,not just shower,eat nd sleep.
For Christ sake,this is not a contract marriage,he should give time to his wife.
Madam, I suggest u should take ur time to learn and digest this new characters of him and find a better time to have an intimate word with him. Let him knw hw u feel abt all this in a calm and sensible manner.
Good luck

While you a contemplating on how you should approach your In-law,I think your sister need to refrain from having unprotected sex with him until he goes for HIV test. No joking here,HIV I rampant now and who knows which olosho he has sex with under the influence of alcohol anything can happen.
My take shaaaa grin

valarinz:


I used to respect your opinion and advise a lot on car talk section, but this particular comment made me realise you truly are not such an authority as I thought you were. Next time, instead of pretending to know it all , just tell the OP you truly don't know much about parts availability cos maybe u deal in other brands mainly.

To the OP, go to Alhaji amusa street, isolo, you'll see Volvo parts till you run for your life, and also very cheap and affordable too, anything you need, don't mind this man saying you'll cry when looking for parts

Thanks
please valarinz, can one get 2006 Audi A6 3.2 Quattro in ladipo too?
