I need advice from the engineers and previous user of Volkswagen Touran 2005 1.6 petrol manual transmission but UK hand converted. Is it a good buy for commercial purpose and what to inspect before buying .

Mehn... those your fuel trims are really on the negative. Please check your fuel pressure. I had a similar issue with my acura tsx sometime ago. Many mechanics don't know about fuel pressure. I had to order fuel pressure kit from aliexpress and went full DIY mode. I realize my fuel pressure was high owing to a faulty fuel pressure regulator.
I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and the Trims came back to normal.

Another angle you should check is leaky or over sized injectors. Pull out the injectors, place them on a platform while they are still connected to the car. Switch your ignition to ON Position and observe for leakage. Also, tell someone to help you start the car and also observe for the spray patterns.

Modified: just to add, many mechanics don't know that fuel pressure regulator have pressure ratings according to car type. They could be 2.5 bar, 3.5 bar... etc. Ensure you check the specs of your car model online before replacing. When I went to source for fuel pressure regulator, I also observed that the sellers don't even know that they are of different sizes. They just give you anything provided it will fit in.

This is the fuel pressure testing kit I bought for your reference.

You do know stanbic is among the fastest as per withdrawals right? For Most fund managers, you would have to wait out a 24hour timer. Lets complain with sense please.

If i ask you now, did you initiate withdrawal before 12pm, you may say No

Did you use the web? You may say No

Was it more than 5m? You may say Yes.

Please go to STL or GTB and let us know how fast your withdrawal would take

I have seen that there are many senseless people in this thread now. They can just pick up their phone and type any rubbish.

See the silly assumptions you made trying to prove your senseless point.

God help you.

suckprick:
What happened?

To process redemption wahala.
I even called their customer to beg them that I have an emergency and she promised they will process it yet...
I'm just frustrated right now.

My marriage with Stanbic Ibtc fund managers end today.
You can't imagine my level of frustration right now. To redeem my own fund too.

Good evening gurus. I have this code on my acura tsx 2004.

How do I solve this?

The car revs up and down when this code is triggered and looses power.

Good morning house. I’m yet to see a seasoned rewire, if anyone has any recommendations I’d appreciate. Thanks y’all.

Location?

Sylvaxxl1:
Sorry, it’s automatic and it’s not hybrid

Your recommended oil type is honda DW-1.
If you can get genuine one from a trusted vendor then it's fine.
Due to adulterated and counterfeit oil in the market; when I do my servicing I used an Mannol SP-IV. It's an unpopular brand but I am rest assured it's genuine rather than looking for the top brands that are mostly adulterated.

I have been using Mannol both for my engine oil change and the last time I did transmission oil change.

flootintin:
Call a technician to check the thermostat and learnt it was removed. The technician opinion is that it fails hence why they remove it. I told him to source a replacement.

That's a good step in the right direction.

Sylvaxxl1:
Good day house, please what’s the recommended gear oil for 2008 Honda civic

You didn't state the type of transmission you're using. Is it manual or automatic?

flootintin:
The fans run at ignition. The old owner allowed the connection. The thermostat was not removed. It still gets to optimal temperature but it takes awhile. It has single cell radiator so maybe due to overheating, it was connected direct.

Does single cell correlate to overheating?
Naija electricians and connecting fan direct na 5 & 6.

How do know the thermostat is intact? If it is why does it take time to reach optimum temperature?

Well I just gave you advice. It's either you take or leave it.

But until you revert to default, your problem will persist.

flootintin:
Good afternoon my Oga's.

I noticed check engine light in Honda accord 2009. I scanned and it come with the following codes
PO138
PO128
PO706

What level of repair do I undertake?

simple fixes:
1. First of all; is your fan connected direct and/or your thermostat removed? check and return back to default.
2. your transmission range switch may be faulty or clogged with dirt. Check to see if the wiring to the switch is broken also.


my 2 cents.

The 1.4% management fee for Trustbanc via cowrywise. Is it one off or monthly?

For those of us in the informal sector. Which is better for retirement fund; MMF or stanbic micro pension?

Preator:
Micro pension.

If I may ask further, any reason why you're choosing this?

I am moving funds from Stanbic to Cowry, waiting for the funds to arrive so i can start investing with MMF and Equity but mostly equity mututal fund for now. Yeah sure thats fine with me.

Any reason why you're moving from stanbic?
