if youre in Lagos, take the car to Mayor or Nurey. Theyre experts in freeanders.
My workshop is in abuja and we dont work freelanders, we reject them.
The "op" has to wait. By the time toyota & landrover enters into a partnership deal to produce cars. Then we can take in the job. But as for now he either contacts toyota or freelander wink

Dear members,

MY 2007 Rav4, is always difficult to start every time I refuel. I have changed the fuel pump as suggested, but it is still the same situation.
You need to run a good diagnosis on that car. A scan might and might not pick the culprit. But using actual values. Square wave pattern, sine wave pattern on your fuel trim would help
Like causes.
Fuel delivery system ranging from weak fuel pump, clogged up fuel filter
Bad phase or cam sensors
Bad speed refernce sensor

A proper trouble shooting would help out
Car Talk › Re: Second Engine In 2 Months by mayor2013: 4:03am On Sep 25, 2015
A bad catalytic converter can 100% knock your engine if its blocked the exhaust system. But this number problem from gear seal and so on, its better you lift your car on your head if possible and run with it like usian bolt from that "kazeem " of yours. 2 engines in 2 months. Or do manufacturers have expiry dates for engjnes now? cheesy
Currently in my workshop we are treating a car which the catalytic converter blocked the exhaust. If you are in lagos reach this numbers to gt the best solution. 08156087872 or 08165520837. Bb pin is 7BE1C522

These our camry(2001 model) has been in use since 2009...
It has traveled far and wide....
But for like two years now it no longer used as a regular car,majorly its used during weeked now for Church service...
Recently i came back and noticed these light on the dashboard....
A check sign
Please great auto Prodigies what might be the cause and possible solution...
No close place to run a scan....
Cause- there might be an upcoming problem or permanent problem with your powertrain (egnine and transmission). First way out is to run a scan on your power train. Second way is to fix the problem based on the scan result. If you need a scan and troubleshoot and fix the problem and you are in lagos. Call 08156087872 or 08165520837 bb pin is 7BE1C522

Please I need help on how to Ring my Honda Odyssey 2003 model. My mechanic used wrong oil in servicing it and now the smoke is unbearable. Please I need a good mechanic in Ibadan who can help on this.
Best bet is to buy another engine. There are no original oem parts for ringing of engine. Even though you ring with the substandard parts max 3months you are back to square 1. Multiautolab

Car Talk › Re: Car Gurus...kindly Help Give Solutions To These Codes That Came Up During Car Sc by mayor2013: 7:12pm On Sep 20, 2015
Did you in any way change your engine?

P0115- this means your engine coolant temperature sensor is acting funny grin could be a circuit problem or the sensor it self is bad

P0141- heated oxygen sensor- this means your lambda sensor is bad. So there fore there is nothing to monitor airfuel mixtures. Could be the heater element is bad or a circuit problem

P0325- knock sensor- located at the rear of your cylinder block. This is used to detect engine vibration and could retard your timing btw 3degrees - 5 degrees

P1310- igniter circuit malfunction(no 2) . The ignition coil located at cylinder no 2 could be bad or has a circuit malfunction. This can result to a malfunction being that the ignition coil generates a voltage to about 500 which is used to supply current to the spark which induces a spark. If this is bad you would definitely have a misfire

If you are in lagos and you need to diagnose and fix the problems. Call 08156087872 or 08165520837. Bb pin is 7BE1C522. Multi autolab

It won't also accelerate and change gear normally beyond 3000Rpm. Some times it suddenly snaps and accelerate beyond 100km/h. What could be d problem? lipsrsealed

Pls forum, lexus rx300 having problem of system too rich, what do you think can be the solution?
You should have posted this @ the car talk session, but when you have a system too rich try the following.

Check the mass airflow sensor
Check airfuel sensor
Do a complete tune up which involves servicing of fuel injection nozzles, changing of spark plugs, air filter. Hope this helps. Lastly check fuel pressure from fuel pump

Update. The noise is getting back again with power loss especially when climbing a hill. How do I nail this fault?
It seems you have a problem with your car's fuel delivery. Your fuel pump from your last story looks weak. Carry out a fuel pump pressure test, or use a professional diagnostic tester to check for wave patterns of fuel trim
