Eyop:
What level of flood will affect the instrument cluster? Did your brother drive this vehicle in the Lagoon huh Have you diagnose the vehicle to find out exactly the problem? You cannot do a guess work to achieve results.
Yes it was scanned, when I asked the mechanic who did the scanning what the issue was, he couldn't tell me anything tangible, he just said "its electrical" (as if that wasn't obvious from the start) I pulled the plug there cos i don't them doing trial and error on my car without me being present as I'm not in the country at them moment

Hello MB lovers, I'm having an issue with my 2004 W211 E320 Avant Garde, my younger brother drove it through flood (it was raining heavily and he was stuck in traffic) when he got home the instrument cluster went dead while the headlamps are permanently on, the car starts and runs fine but nothing shows up on the instrument cluster. Took it to an electrical guy who checked the fuses front and rear and said the fuses aren't the issue but doesn't know how to resolve it, I need your help guys.
Thanks

JaaizTech: I find it shocking that you used about 7 litres instead of 3 litres. Was the transmission giving problems before the oil change?? would advise you read the car manual on how to check the Transmission oil level. Too much transmission oil can mess things up as well.
That buttresses my point, the "dry fill" column

ayusco85: Twas for safety reasons. Left handed cars are more safe than right handed
nedu2000: I feel it makes sense for it to be left-handed,especially considering d fact dat majority of nigerians are right-handed!!so u can hold the steering with your left hand,and do all sorts of other things with your right hand
hernars: Safety! Drivers on opposite lanes could be nearer to each other and it is no news dat we have d highest number of illiterate drivers in da world...
firetrap: we drive on the right side of the road so it only makes sense that the stirring whee be placed on the left
leunamme93: good point. Our roads are already ported so too.
BLOOD OF GOD shocked

skales: I don't like darrk skinned girls..... And I see no reason why a man would have to kneel down before he could propose to a woman.. Doesn't make sense.

Women should be the one kneeling down thanking us for doing them such great favour.

My moiney, my house, my time, my food, all de good things of life I gave to her while courting, I go still kneel down to propose to her again? Abeg count me out.

new transmission had just been put in,not a drop of ATF was in it...

Quick one,can "ABS pump" in any way prevent the car from reversing? The avensis uses a manumatic transmission by the way
Car TalkRe: Automatic Gearbox Problems by Olisa4all: 8:30am On Sep 15, 2013
hello car-doc
Changed my 03 Toyota Avensis Auto Trans yesterday and got Oando's Dexron III ATF, the car manual said 3.5Liters is what is required but after putting 4Liters and checking the dipstick, it was nowhere near the half way line or full,added 3 more liters and the dipstick indicated Full (after turning on d engine for a few seconds) Turned the car on and it wouldn't reverse, the mechanic alternated between PRND and back to R and then the reverse gear would engage,it would now reverse, putting back in D,it would engage and move forward,then back to R,it wouldn't reverse @all again until you move between all the gears and put it in R. The mechanic wants to scan but I don't think a tokunbo tranny like this should be giving this issue.
Any solution?
Car TalkRe: Nigerians With Automatics & The Problems by Olisa4all: 8:28am On Sep 11, 2013
sultaan: like you not replacing it and making sure it is really bad kind of question.

If you have the wrong fluid in there you will be paying that mechanic for a long time


Do you have any scan code that says it is bad? And what color is your transmission fluid, who and when was the last time you serviced it
The Tranny's gone trust me,a new one's needed

Car TalkRe: How Do I Know If A Used Car Airbag Is Still Intact? by Olisa4all: 3:57pm On Sep 08, 2013
its currently at a mechanic garage having the auto transmission replaced, unfortunately the garage doesn't have any scanning tool, will have to take it somewhere else to get it scanned, I'm guessing this will show more errors because :
1)ABS light is also always on
2)The speedometer guage reads 25kpmh when the engine isn't even running(mechanic says as soon as the tranny's replaced,it'll be back on 0)

dotna: Royal exchange is 95 years old and Niger Insurance is 51 years old. They were formerly owned by British before independent and nationalization. So I'm surprised no one has mention them.
you took the words right outta my mouth

Gee2728: Visited a friend at home and when I got in my C230k to go I noticed the check light came on so I pack and pop the hood. I fired the trotle using the cable then I noticed the S/C clutch was reluctant to spin, infact it got to abt 4K rpm b4 it started spinning so I drove home cos I dnt have any money for such an unplanned repair. A day latter at my free time at home I pop the hood disconnected the S/C power switch and then connected it back. Started the car and rev it up and the clutch started to spin with little effort and to crown my finger tricks the check engine light went OFF.

My point is let's take time to get to know our cars it will save us some cool cash only God knows what the tech guys wld have said was wrong. Its been about a week now and its still runs smooth.
pardon my ignorance bro but whats an S/C clutch
