I NEED NGK 7553 SPARK PLUGS

What car are you using it for

You have an electrical issue on the car

greatrexlaw:
My 2001 baby boy transmission slips faster and jerk from speed 1-2 and it quickly rev. itself to engage; and a jerking in from 2-1. D4 light blinked ounce and not seen again. please what should i do. This is my first time of using a honda car.

Scan your car first and post scan result here

As for fault number1 check your pressure converter connection( boost pressure sensor) . Check for loosed connections and make sure its vacuum lines are not Connected in the wrong direction. Part number for something similar (pressure converter 11747626351). This item could be bad as well. Am off to work would continue

CVT in Honda didn't start today na....1

which is the German tech?.....2

who stole from who?.....3





see them...bad belle pipu

I love me my turbos

Am yet to see one am not talking "dem say". The typical Nigerian mentality

The turbo charge tech to be precise

Japanese stealing from germans

Any previous work done on this car. What year is your bmw

shaddi:
A scan has been carried on the car and a number of electrical faults came up but the workshop i took the car to at AJAH area is taking forever in getting their electrian over to check on the car

Do you have scan result. That would guide me in giving you directions

Stealing German technology. CVT transmission in honda [i][/i]

shaddi:
My car for days now gives me a check engine light with the message.."ENGINE MALFUNCTION /REDUCED POWER ".....please any good bmw mechanic should help me with this one....thanks

What you need to do first is run a comprehensive scan. A fault error would be given. Work would be carried out based on result. So many things can cause reduced engine power.

Incidentally all the suspension parts were installed few months ago: shocks, suspension links, bars & bushings.

New tyre rods, ball joints, lower control arms, even a rear trailing arm. I do get what feels like occasional bounce in the front end. Tyres still have good threads.

Driver side wheel hub was changed few months ago.

Complete wheel hub or just the bearing? If bearing what method was used to install the bearing

You would not get that kind of sound from differential area. Have you thoroughly inspected your suspension parts. Best bet have the front tyres suspended. Engage transmission and listen carefully. Any vibration when driving? If am to take a guess check your wheel hubs

erico2k2:

Fixing turbo charger of 2006 Volvo xc90

Yes it can. But depending on the extent of damage

Nyceguy92:
Please help.
Car is 1996 Camry 2.2l automatic making a clicking sound while driving.

The sound is like that of a new bicycle wheel turning - kick, kick, kick.

It occurs driving straight but gets louder if the wheel is turned slightly to the right. Clicks get slower or faster according to the car speed.

It is not the typical crack crack sound of a bad CV joint thst occurs mostly only while turning. shift fine and movement is good.

When the driver side wheel is jacked up in the neutral gear position and the wheel turned, the click click sound is heard in the region of the inner CV joint area.

Mechanic thought it was from the differential area because it was almost completely empty. Transmission fluid was put in but the sound is still there.

Please I need experts in the house to help figure out this problem for me.
Many thanks.

Bring it to to the workshop for a free inspection. Address on my signature

Where is the differential on a Camry 1996?

AutoElectNG:
Back up your position with facts.

5w30 flows better than 20w50 because it is thinner, hence better fuel economy.

20w50 does not flow as well as 5w30 because it is thicker, hence worse fuel economy.

Why condemn the OP to 20w50 without thorough analysis that proves that is a wise decision?

Not all high mileage engines are condemned to run 20w50!

What of protection when it matters most at startup?

Everything is give an take - which is more important - greater oil film thickness or flow (how quickly it gets to protect moving parts)?

To me flow matters more than film strength unless the engine is certified worn, then the decision will be different.

I know how to check service history for American used vehicles, I just confirmed to a guy who was worried, if ever his timing belt was changed down to the date and the mileage, same for the coolant, the shocks, and a lot more.

I can pull up the same data for the OP

May I know which ghost you have in mind? Sir?

Thank you.

The internet is different from the field of play.

AutoElectNG:
My personal vehicle has hit 200,000 miles, and I still use 5w30 and will use it till the engine grenades itself.

But you can teach me why I shouldn't.

I am very open-minded and will consider your suggestions on the basis of its merits.

I know people who have used the same oil weight to 500,000 miles

This suggests why you want to check a ghost service history. Don't gamble on this sir

AutoElectNG:
Good to know that the check engine light has always been on.

Good to know the about the oil level.

5w30 is more expensive than 20w50.
5w30 is what is recommended for your vehicle.

Remember that the VVT system is partly hydraulic in nature, by using 20w50, you are using too heavy an oil weight, an oil weight that is does not meet the specifications around which the engine was designed to operate.

I could recommend deeper diagnostics, but I want to eliminate the possibility that the oil is responsible for the problem first.

You could learn a thing or two from this thread: http://www.rav4world.com/forums/99-4-3-mechanical/165489-sae-5w30-vs-5w40-vs-20w50.html

Or you could run the oil for the whole 5000 miles , then at the next oil change switch to 5w30 so we can see if the oil was the problem.

Before trying something deeper or more involved

You ask the "op" to use 5w30 on a ride with 222,145km. ride on sir

honmusa:
This is engine related issue that the OP complain about not powertrain .Even if there is code ,it is not related to the scope of complaint.
I don't think you go to field to see the real stuff,you are more of Internet mechanic.

AutoElectNG:
Please check if there are any codes thrown by this vehicle and report back.

I want to know what the computer sees before saying anything more.

Computer box throwing a fault error for this kind of problem. This is a joke sir

chukel:
it was still one of u professionals that fixed a wrong engine in a car, rushed to nairaland to show off and got hooked. Nobody is denying the fact that competent hand is good, but u guys need to reevaluate the way u rush to threads to drag people to your shop. Emulate gazzuzz. It's not hard.

Smh!!! I sympathise with you on this

tutuwater:
No, I am not going to give a professional. I am going to give the car to a Kazeem.
Thanks very much for your help. It was much appreciated.

All fine

Have a professional inspect your car

tutuwater:
On second check I think it is a whitish blue smoke. But it stops when the car is fully warm.

Valve stem seal is worn out. If smoke is continous get ready for another engine

tutuwater:
Thanks a lot Bro you have been of tremendous help. I can't place the color of th smoke may be I can make another video of the smoke and upload.

Smoke can be only in 3 colours. White, black and whitish blue

The job done caused the leak. Reinspect cvjoint, drive shaft rubbers. Make sure the clips are properly held upon to the rubbers else you would experience this

erico2k2:
All vehicles with key-less entry,there are Key programmers out there as cheap as $100, all they need is access to your OBD11 port.

As simple as that?
