Car Talk › Re: Urgent Help Needed by mayor2013: 11:04am On Dec 20, 2015 |
Ocfreedom: Pls I need advice. I have Toyota Avensis 2007 model. Two days ago I experienced some malfunction in the vehicle. First I noticed that the fan is not working but the vehicle can start and that the sign P/S is showing on the dashboard. Secondly the steering is strong and cannot turn. Later in the afternoon, I tried it again and I notice that its working well again. Yesterday in the morning I tried it and discovered that the problem have started again and later it stopped. This morning same problem was there again. pls I need to know what to do and the cause. Low battery voltage can cause that. Your car uses an electronic power steering which is different from the mechanical type which uses fluid for lubrication. Do you have a good battery. Run a scan on your car. DTCs would be pulled out. If you are in lagos and you need a fix call 08156087872 or 08165520837. Bb pin is 7BE1C522 |

chukstel: I have gotten a similar issue with my battery going down everyday after driving. I contacted an auto electrician who told me the faulty was with the alternator. he changed a part inside the alternator and problem solved till date.
so your problem would be with your alternator. You think the problem is solved. Wait some few more days and see what happens |

EHITZ: Please car gurus, I use a Toyota Avensis, and I will like to know why this light is coming on, it all started as soon as I fixed my radiator top and got it re installed. and also why does my car engine drag a bit even after servicing. Check oil level What kind of oil filter was used If all seems ok check your oil pump. That engine would be buried soon |
Car Talk › Re: Nissan Altima by mayor2013: 7:42pm On Dec 17, 2015 |
ganagagi: I mean it will rise before entering gear 2, and a rewire told me that I should change the transmission oil, Don't bother yourself. Just save yourself some headache by going to get a new transmission |

king406: So the problem is actually the PS pump which costs 35k new and 22k Belgium. The mechanic said that the Belgium part is better than the new one, is that really true?why do Mechanics always claim that Belgium parts are better than new ones? Sunstandard parts every where, if you re quoted a brand new ps pump for 80k would you buy it? |
Car Talk › Re: Help With Battery Drain by mayor2013: 7:18pm On Dec 17, 2015 |
BOUNTYDOG: Where I buy my batteries,though in lagos,they usually run checks on the car to ensure it doesn't have leakages and checks alternators if charging well before they install the new batteries,this they do to ensure the car is ok for them to give warranty on the new battery,I normally get a one year warranty and have used some of the batteries for more than 6yrs no issues at all.I buy from Dimaps Olowu. You can look out for reliable battery dealers around you and not spare parts dealers selling batteries alongside or a battery charger selling batteries,but a good distributer that gets directly from manufacturers.they should have such facilities too
One simple way to check if ur charging circuits is good in ur car is to remove one of the terminal head while the engine is idle,if it goes off,then you need to check ur alternators Your point is one of the reasons why we have ecu problems and sensor problems in Nigeria. A very bad practice I must tell you. Now the big question is what takes back the current within the circuitin your car after you must have removed a battery terminal? |

donmarshia: House, please I need help here. All my tyres were recently changed and since then the ABS light does not come up at all whenever I put on the ignition.
Also my Odometer suddenly stopped working but the rev side still works.
What is the solution to this and what could caused these problems? Plz state the type of car you have a complain about. The wiring on your wheel speed sensor could have been snapped out or it could be the wheel speed sensors are bad. Nevertheless run a scan on your Abs moduleas this would reveal the actual problem.
