Yes, it's the P0420. Missed the last zero.

This CEL code is not complete. It should be one alphabet and 4 numbers
Car TalkRe: I Need A Solution To My Car by markpenk: 10:43pm On Jan 24, 2022
Thank you. Yes I have a CEL, but it's the P042. Is that a contributing factor?
Dozieson:
Could mean the engine seats are getting weak.
Or tyres are out of balance.

Work on the two above and you will fine.

Also, do you have any check engine light?
Car TalkRe: I Need A Solution To My Car by markpenk: 6:32pm On Jan 24, 2022
Good evening... What does it mean if there's vibration while braking (even though the brake pad and disc were recently replaced) and vibration while accelerating (even after changing the cv axles)?

Oh and shocks are good by the way


Dozieson:
Have you checked the shocks?

Is it vibrating when brake is applied?

Is it vibrating when accelerating?

This is their standard operating procedure. The company has zero regard for their customers' time or money. If you need to fly, choose Ibom Air, Max Air, and United Nigeria airlines. Those three are more reliable airlines FOR NOW.

We are still waiting for the next season.

As for outlander, i heard is too boring, is it True?

Have you seen The Last Kingdom and Outlander? Might be up your alley.
OhBritannia:
This is me in the middle of the night looking for a Series to download. Lol

Not Many series available to download anymore unlike from 2010 to 2019 where we had lots of Great shows to choose from and even discussed about.

I think the pandemic came and everything changed.
I am looking for some kind of medieval setting series, beautiful robes, poetic, swords, ancient guns, beautiful songs etc

I connect more with those kinds of series maybe because i feel like an old soul.
I need Series like Versailles, reign, the seeker,
Rome, cable girls anything that has to do with the 60s, 70s, 80s.

Please somebody should suggest a 10/10 olden days series for me. Even if it's Spanish or French or German or British.
TV/MoviesRe: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by markpenk:
In my opinion, It's an alright series. Good, but not as great as hyped. Was underwhelming maybe even predictable (it was for me) - but enjoyable. My 2 cents.

Good afternoon. Can someone help me please? I have a slight problem with a 2009 honda accord.

I just changed 3 ball joints -2 upper arm and 1 lower arm- because I was hearing the ka ka ka sound that usually precedes the dreaded pull-out issue.

Yet, the sound's still there. What could be the problem? I'd really appreciate your inputs. Thanks

FamilyRe: Strictly Life-changing Marital And Parenting Books by markpenk: 1:13pm On Jul 19, 2021
Hello, while this thread looks promising, it lacks a critical feature: Book spotlights, and reviews.

I'd recommend doing a "Book of the Week" series or something like that. Every week, pick a truly outstanding book, post the title and images, and write a review.

If you can't, just post unbiased reviews from Amazon, Goodreads, Barnes and nobles or wherever (although I think a personal review shows that you do believe in your products).

Also, you can always bundle titles together e.g. People who liked X title, also enjoyed Y and Z titles

If the author has a YouTube channel or podcast, or has had their book made into a movie, include them in the post too.

If you do this, your thread will generate good engagement and do much better sales-wise.

Car TalkRe: Used Car Price In The USA by markpenk: 3:50pm On Jul 14, 2021
Increased demand, plain and simple. More folks are purchasing certified pre-owned vehicles with 15-60k miles these days instead of brand new ones. Pristine vehicles in near-new condition, but cheaper.

AutosRe: ASK GAZZUZZ by markpenk:
Happy new year Gazzuzz. Been a silent follower of this thread for a while now.

I see you've used and sold the '08/'09 accord in the past and feel you'll be in the best position to help. My 09 accord's brakes feel somewhat soft/spongy. That's the only way to describe it. So, you basically have to "plan ahead" before braking. if you need to brake suddenly, you might have to floor the brakes.

I was the mechanic yesterday, and the said mechanic explained that there was something wrong with the master (I'd recently changed the brake pads so it wasn't that). He worked on it/fixed it yesterday, and even though the brakes feel slightly better, they're still not as responsive/solid as, say, an '05 accord's brakes. Also, my ABS, TPMS, VSA and CEL lights (although recently serviced the car and oil life is at 80 percent) are currently on. I have attached a picture of the instrument panel here.

What could be the problem? I'd appreciate your help and insights. Thanks

Unfortunately, I'm currently in Ibadan. Do you know any solid technician here?

You need a competent technician to fix it.

Thank you kingreign.
kingreign:
Did he install a very good working unit? Well, I'm not sure that he did install a new one. He worked on the current one.
Did he bleed all 4 channels? He only bled the two in front.
Is your ABS light on? Yes, ABS is on. Has been for a while

That said, the 08 upwards brakes aren't anywhere near the 03-07 in terms of sharp response. Interesting... didn't know this. So maybe it's not unique to just mine? What can I do to fix it as best as I can?

Bros... You have two options:

1. Do the do when she's not around. If she's always around, send am long errand. Then enjoy.

2. Carry your babe go hotel. If you can't afford a full night, pay for short time.

The Lord be with you and may He expand your coast quickly.

P.S: Use this as a prayer point and remind God to upgrade your situation sharp sharp

Bawal:
Due to some challenges, I and my wife are staying in one room self con and her 30 year old sister has been staying with us for some months now, my wife is older than her by three years.

Making love has been challenging since then even though the sister puts bed on the floor and sleep,most time when we assume she is asleep and engage in the act, i will later observe that she is not sleeping. Though she will maintain as if she is sleeping and this is constituting an uneasy environment.

In fact most time she knows when we are doing it. We are very uncomfortable over the act and she is not moving out from the house soonest. Though she is an adult that such may not sound strange to her, but indirectly seeing or hearing the sound on when i am performing duty on her elder sister makes us feel uncomfortable especially when we see one another in the morning after the act.

Please whats the right way to manage this situation. Advise please.

Car TalkWatch Volkswagen's Electric Racecar Obliterate A Mclaren 720s by markpenk(op): 11:09am On Feb 25, 2020

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Om28CUu1m3I

The Volkswagen ID.R doesn't have much in common with a McLaren 720S, other than the fact that they are both performance-crazed cars. One gets its power from batteries, the other from gas.

One uses electric motors, the other a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8. One is a halo prototype vehicle, the other is a road-legal supercar available for purchase.

So when Chris Harris and "Top Gear" decided to "race" the two against each other, it was more of a demonstration of the VW's unreal capabilities than any sort of real competitive faceoff.

In episode five of Top Gear's 28th season, which just aired February 23, the trio of Harris, Freddie Flintoff and Paddy McGuinness welcomed Youtuber KSI on the show and ventured out on a luxury sports car road trip with an Aston Martin, Porsche, and Ferrari. Separately, Harris took to the track to test out Volkswagen's golden egg of the moment, the ID.R.

As VW fully launches into its electric-vehicle push, the ID.R is meant to exhibit what battery-electric technology is capable of.

With two electric motors, one on the front axle and one on the rear axle, the 2,425-pound ID.R has four-wheel drive and makes a claimed 670 horsepower.

As Harris notes in the video, the ID.R. was not built for a specific regulation-bogged racing organization or competition, and thus, it's only held back by the rules of Mother Nature and Father Physics.

Since the car's debut, it has been annihilating records around the world, including at Pike's Peak, Goodwood, the Nürburgring, and Heaven's Gate.

Chris Harris didn't set any records in the ID.R., but he certainly showed how outrageous this machine is. The 710-horsepower 720S can go from zero mph to 62 mph in less than three seconds, and the ID.R has a sizable lead within that same time.

Again, this wasn't an instance of test-and-conclude, it was a show of perspective. The ID.R is a race car, so even though the 720S is one of the best supercars in the world, it never stood a chance. See for yourself above.
