Happy Holidays, I hear a clicking sound when I fully turn my steering wheel and when I go over bumps. It's a Rx 330 Lexus. What could be the cause?

Appreciate nice contributions here.
I visited Ekiti with 04 Vibe. Had to change a coil and fuel pump due to misfiring and difficult starting car.
Look for a place to scan but only found one whose obd failed to detect car.


If vehicle is still in ekiti, call this guy
08137264240.
He is based in Ado-Ekiti.

Happy holidays guys,

Pls are there still approved Peugeot dealerships and/or service centers in Lagos that provides specialized services?

I have been using the guys at Oluwalogbon Motors in Ikeja but I've had a lot of repeat jobs over time. I doubt they are still affiliated to Peugeot OEM and I suspect they are just riding on past brand equity.

I hear there are other centers in Yaba and Lekki but I've not tried either as I'm not sure if its same kind of arrangement or not.

I have a Peugeot 301 that has multiple issues and I'll like to have a comprehensive check and repairs. Hence, I will appreciate any useful information that will point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Happy Holidays!

I am experiencing a continuous flunctuating rpm (it suddenly goes up and sometimes takes a while before returning to normal) on my 07 Honda civic both while in idle and in motion. Throttle body has been changed, Cam shaft sensor cleaned. Car has been scanned and currently no codes.
I need help with possible solution or a competent mechanic around Ojodu berger. Thanks

Please help!

Does this signify that I change the belt or change the tensioner ? The tensioner tends to vibrate when the car is on.

When you say "roller" , do you mean "pulley".

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by realphatphem: 5:32pm On May 13, 2021
Good evening to all car gurus in the house. Kindly suggest lasting remedy for my 1999 Camry transmission making kinda strange/ knock sound each time It's engaged into reverse gear. Though it works normal but this kinda sound it brings out when put in reverse gear worries me so much. ATF was changed 4months ago. Thanks.
