Thanks. my mechanic have checked the pressure of the pump and said it's ok. I think I just need a standard mechanic workshop to check the car properly but the thing is I don't know of any here in benin.

Hi bro.


A google search, on standard autoshops in benin should help

portside:
This is photo of the problematic part

Did you change the engine oil u use in servicing your car.


If you didnt, change the rocker arm pressure switch. And use the recommended oil for your accord. The problem should stop

JPENG:


with him, nt always.. bt wen i am driving, it does. Bt later if i balance my foot on d pedals like lowering d clutch a bit or mentaining d clutch in dt jerking position den adding more gas it eventually stops. Bt with d post i think dia is more to it.
it a BMW wagon. (injector)

You should take that wagon to a mechanic.

When did you start noticing this, has this been happening for a while or just lately.


When you drive other manual transmission. Do you experience this same scenario. if you do, then your driving is culprit, if not, It is time to visit your mechanic.

When you idle, is the engine stable or it vibrates?

thanks for your response ,the first red light came up before my hubby left for his trip ,he said something about changing the oil pressure or so ,I thought he was just telling me that to stop me from driving the car ,,the second yellow sign was after ran into a big pothole .
called the first mechanic he said I need to change the fuel pump ,tried asking another mechanic maybe he might have the same view as the first but he said it's wiring work ,that he has to rewire the car so I got confuse and decided to leave the car like that until I find a perfect solution , ve checked under the car no leakage at all , checked the bonnet no opening or cut anywhere .. it's a Chrisler car ,most mechanics don't really know how to work on it and my husband doesn't have any mechanic around , he takes the car to ladipo for any repairs or servicing

Your Chrysler is what year.

You've not told me your oil level after checking the dipstick.


Does the light (ever go off in motion). Dont drive and test o. Just wanted to know if it is always on. Either in motion or idling.


For the check engine light, you need to scan it. If you bumped any sensor under the hood, u will know from the error codes.


You actually did right by seeking a second opinion.

What exactly does the other mechanic want to rewire. Told you?

ojibole:


Sorry my bro it's typo

1. It's big daddy 02

2. The engine was very noisy and the exhaust was shooting.

3. I didn't get them back sadly...

4. Yes it is stable when I idle it after I changed the coils and plugs.

5.no it doesn't hit... what it does is that while in motion and about to enter th3 3rd gear it will seize as if the break was matched but no it wasn't I'm actually still accelerating

6. I have changed mechanics the 2nd mechanic said it was the fuel pump or carburetor but it wasn't after thorough checking.

I don tire my brother. Driving the car is annoying now. See ehn the first mechanic tried a diff brain box and the seizing stopped just that that particular brain box was faulty as the way the car was driving wasn't as smooth as my own brain box and that was the only one that worked I was now told to order either from lagos or onitcha but I haven't

Good morning bro.


1) You need go to a standard autoshop around you. Sometimes, customers are of the opinion that they charge more, truth is they dont. And you dont need pay for anything, just tell them to check your car. And tell them the history, to the last detail.

2). The problem you described has nothing to do with brain box. More like a low fuel pump pressure. The car drags, like a delay before it enters the 3rd gear. And there is sometimes a pa sound from the exhaust( this is as a result of a cut in fuel supply)


I would want to check fuel pump pressure, clean the filter. and service the nozzles.

Most importantly, if there's a check engine light on, you should do a diagnostic scan. It will point you in the right direction.

JPENG:
@Op, i think at times too, in Manual transmissions, if u dnt balance ur Clutch with the trottle , it can also be jerking as u are accelerating. Pop Man complains a lot abt it when i am behind wheels and it gets me seriously angry.. E be like say na hin Car get ishh!! lol
I think we now av more things to Check now dan d "u no sabi drive of a tin". D tin dey vex me

I dont get the bolded. Does this happen when he drives too? the jerking part. Does the car jerk when he is on wheels too?

Newbiee:
If I have problem with my car, I first google it out before taking it to a mechanic, to be sure he knows what to do. This strategy helps me a lot in cutting cost. Because I know what to expect. You can not charge me for HIV treatment when I know my ailment supposed to be malaria.

Naxo smart way bro


But hope you dont give your mechanic headache sha.. like what are you loosing there, han han, why are you hitting it like that, it will break o

I leave your kind with my big yanshed secretary .


If you have been patronizing Mechs that you dont trust enough with you car, it is time to change em

portside:
Gurus this has my problem on my discussion continue 2006 for a while, Ivery scanned but it shows a particular sensor at the back of the enine. The mechanic would clean it, it would work then after a while it's back to square one.it jerks anytime I want to accelerate quickly.

I didnt get you sir?

What is the problem with your car

bettyLad:
happy to see this post , last Sunday I drove my husband's car to church and hit a very deep pothole, everything was OK and I drove it for about 25mins to church , after service I needed to go home ,when I start the car it started jerking and wasn't moving smoothly , a sign appeared on the dash board which I don't know what the sign signifies .can sombody help me with what the sign mean so I can know what's wrong with the car and if possible get it fixed from my lil savings before my husband returns, he is out of town

Pls dont start the car again

The first light is showing that you have low oil pressure. Hope you didnt drive the vehicle home like that.

It is either there's a leakage or the oil sensor is broken. The former will most likely be the case


1. Check the oil level using your oil dipstick.

2. Check under the hood for any leakage, and note where it is leaking

3. You need a mechanic mbok , and i hope you've not knocked your engine

The second light could be anything, it comes up when there is an engine malfuction. You need to get a scanner to know why it is up.. It is most likely associated to low oil pressure. You cant be too sure until you scan it



Call your most trusted mechanic to help you check. Na small ish do your car. Let me get feedbacks on 1&2

moscobabs:
Bluebrothers pls what is making car engine to change suddenly exp when I'm warming it in the morning?

what do you mean by change... sound?

Thanks for the reply..

The millage is 92000, the heat box fluid has been checked and even replaced. The genesis of the problem started when I changed all six plugs and all the coils that where bad and two days later this problem started. I can't remember the error codes it brought out when it was scanned. All the heat box that was brought didn't work apart from one that work3d but had it's own fault so I requested mine be put back and mine is coded with the key.. I was told I'll have to order from lagos but I still haven't cos I don't want to waste money...your thoughts please

You are in line to not have ordered yet.

I do not know what you meant by heat box fluid(You mean the transmission fluid?

And the second bolded, u meant the brain box?

One thing is sure, your car will be fine , it is a promise.

But in order to help out, i would need some infos and history about the car.

1) You said it is a toyota camry, big daddy. What year

2) Before you changed the plugs and the bad ignition coils, what was the problem. Was it that the engine is not stable when it idles(when not in motion)

3) You said this problem started two days after the plug and ignition change (It is pointless asking if you got your old plugs and bad ignition coils back,. the info will help though)

4) How does this car really behaves, when you idle it (on the ignition and let it just steam) is it stable?

5) The 3rd gear part you talked about, does it hit, like the engine wants to leave its compartment when trying to change gear?

6) In the process of trying to fix this problem, have you changed mechanics(Kazeems), Was it the same guy that changed your plugs that's still on on fixing the car?

PS... I know how it feels to just have that ride that's without hassles just turn evil over night. Relax and get a bottle of Odeku if you drink one. Your car will be fine. Na one small thing dey do am (hopefully your mechanic has not messed things up)

DaudaAbu:
My car haw been jerking for a while

I have checked the plugs, the fuel pump has been cleaned, yet the prob persisir.

The check engine light has been on for a while and when i am speeding it starts to blink , what might be causing these?

Take that vehicle to a diagnostic centre and let them scan it for u.

You can even get one of those tools from konga. Just search obd2 diagnostic tools. not up to 20k. You will change change and not know what exactly the problem is

Help my Camry 2.4 has been giving an issue. It will seize b4 it enters gear 3 i have done all the above but still yet no solution. I was told it's the brain box. It's a v6 Toyota Camry 2.4 A.K.A big daddy or big for nothing please help

Check the transmission fluid to see if it low or dirty.

And have you scanned the vehicle? . If you have, what error codes did it bring up

What's your current mileage? .

Truth is, a bad ECU (brain box) or transmission control module is the culprit. Most times the ECU like u were told. But this are last resort

NLOwner:




Lol bro... If you scroll up, you'd see that someone already asked for the phone, but I already have someone I intend giving it to..

I'm sorry bro

Bless u bro...


Dont buy china phones o. dey r not worth it, just get a fairly used s5 or s6. The way the names of those chinko phone sounds will break ur heart.


Thanking u for the person u intend to give.

Regards

ok

MayorofLagos:
I continue to hammer on this issue for past two years. God forbid if Buhari passes, that the Northerners will agree to submit to Osinbajo leadership.

Osinbajo is not sorrounded with class and authority, at all!

Presidency comes with tradition and culture and in Nigeria Yoruba are the fashionistas, we command couture taste. In traditional Yoruba culture Osinbajo is not dressed formally in this picture. This appearance diminishes the grandeur that should naturally associatr with his office and role.

Imagine the VP of a western country coming out in ordinary shirt and tie, no suit...and does that everyday and wherever he goes and regardless of the occassion. The equivalent of that image is what Osinbajo does when he comes out in this taxi driver attire.

Now, who is that guy behind him in blue kaftan? It just gets worse!! In his case picture President of Nigeria visiting the West and the assistant to their President appears in the office with just shirt, no tie, no suit. Thats what we have here. Na.k.ed!! No style, just dry!

Very irritating! Tasteless, classless, devoid of any appeal...just dry!

Reading this just gave me migraine. Wearing suit and tie is now class. Darn

There's really nothing I could type that will reconfigure ur thinking, so I will rather let this pass

So u will know, you typed beautiful nonsense. Trash with confidence

Idydarling:
Happy New year Nairalandas, let us make a wish
legggoooooooo

I wish u are my babe... Hope u dont mind dating a Yoruba guy.


Where in Uyo do u stay

RichYoungNigga:
you're the most unintelligent person in the world.
You're stuck in Nigeria and probably never been to any country to see how things are done.

1. Hypocrisy : Nigeria likes foreign goods ?? In America, we i

You're lame

Oya, ogbeni we have seen you, you are Mr Americana. Swerve already

Typical nigerian. *show off*
