Kindly assist give me an insight on these before I go to a kazeem

1 . For abs check for burnt fuse
2. For SRS scanner will reset and clear it.
3. Esp turn steering left and right complete to the extreme, should clear it
4.service A, enter menu to where service A is then press reset button and hold for 3sec it will clear it. Service A is normal engine oil change.
5. Battery alternator . Engine Purley v belt might b cut or removed from position.

The main issues are
Alternator
Service your car



Others you can get used to they aren't major problems ....SRS has to do with your airbag...it might need servicing when you have time

My Ogas, please help me interpret this symbols in yellow on my dashboard. It's a 2016 Toyota Hiace. Recently serviced but mechanic said it's normal. It appears when the ignition is turned on then goes offf. The yellow under the battery is abs

LoL ..this is Christmas light ...nothing is normal about this...don't use that mechanic again


From oil to brakes to a whole lot of things are bad in that car ...the engine might knock

Kunletele:
Greetings my people. I am new to Mercedes and I somehow was convinced to buy a Mercedes e200 2007 that was up for sale at a mechanic's place. The car was already in limp mode. It displays something about reduce break power, abs etc. Somebody said the problem was the sbc. Those regular mechanics don't know how to go about it. I am in Lagos. Please help.

where in Lagos are you in

Felicity001:


Sorry pls how can one point out a right handed car from custom please educate me.

The conversion according to the dealer yesterday was done in Europe b4 the car was shipped into Nigeria.

The dearler is a 3rd party and according to him the real owner who lives abroad did everything over there b4 shipping.

Very easy

1. Wiper direction
2. Gear selection
3. Roof handle
4. Turn the steering very well
5. Brake pedals and accelerators


It's the easiest thing to know in a car

It's quiet normal for all lights to come up in dash of all cars when ignition is turned on and go off when you fully start the car. Nothing abnormal about that.

What is abnormal is the lights being static which is there ....so it's abnormal

Churock:

Any of the fault can cause the check engine light to come on, if all the fault are cleared and the check engine light is still there, then u need to scan the car

ariesbull:

Did you read where he said the lights only appear when ignition is turned on and disappear when the key is turned to start position? Do you even own a car?

Please I need front grille for c300 2011. Thank you

My car is a 2010 Mercedes benz w204 avant-garde.

The below usually happens when I am about to park my car.

My auto transmission gear most of the time is very hard to bring back to R coming from D. It is like getting stuck for a while in neutral and I will finally be able to shift after few minutes of waiting. Sometimes it feels like I could brake something inside if I force to change the gear.

But once the gear was successfully in, then it will all of a sudden very smooth to change gears from anywhere I want to. Weird part is It only happens when the vehicle was fresh from being driven and was about to be parked. Gear for some reason is getting stuck in neutral for a few minutes. Any idea? Thank you all
in advance.

valve body is the most likely culprit

Good afternoon Gurus. Thanks for ya input so far. Please I noticed that when I’m on Drive or reverse, my Mercedes C320 becomes shaky but if I select the gear to P or N it becomes normal. NB: if I fire on the car while in D it will be ok oo but once I apply brake it becomes really shaky but engine doesn’t go off. In my pathfinder suv, normally there’s a way to high the engine but I can see such here. Kindly suggest to me what to do

Regards

Check your gear bushings

No. I doubt.

SomoriiN:

Check your gear bushings

Could bad stabilizer bushing be the cause?

Check my signature if you have a car and interested in installing a tracking device. It might interest you

Apologies I brought a lexus issue to this thread. it seems you guys in benz section are more responsive...
Now, My Es350 starts making a wobbly and cyclical (like a flat tire, like in mooooossseeee) is the best that I can describe it, noise at around 60km/h, .. I cant really hear the noise at lower speeds.... Any suggestions as to what it could be ?

Gear selector. not valve body.

scan to ensure there is no brake switch fault. fault is most likely you gear selector.

check your engine and gear seats as suggested.
if found ok
then scan the vehicle.
alot of things can cause the vehicle to shake when put in drive but the easiest could be a dirty throttle body causing restriction to airflow at idle or you have a weak spark (coil or spark plug).
to avoid throwing parts, pls start with scanning the ECU to see if there are any fault codes stored.

Actually, it is that thing underneath the car, that's meant to cover the engine underneath, that became lose. So as it's mouth is opened, air was rushing in, causing the noise at higher speed....Now tightened back and the ride is 100% silent at any speed

But nevertheless, those in lexus thread no even send 1 reply to the post as expected. Make I just dey here jejely
