Your message is insulting. I need a professional response not this nauseating reply

vivalavida:


Wanna ask a question please.
How does one know his break is binding? Sometime two months ago, I was on 3rd mainland when I saw my car give me a prompt 'check break system'.
Since then I have changed break pads and yet that message comes up. And my fuel consumption is up.
How does one explain to kazeems to check for binding breaks?

kingreign:

A brake is binding when one or more calipers do not fully release ‘its grip’ off its wheels. How to know if your brake is binding is to either take the car to a slope and put her on neutral and allow her roll due to gravity or to jack up the car disable the emergency brake or put the car in neutral and roll each wheel by hand to detect which is free and which has resistance.

If your kazeem doesn’t know how to check for binding brake, he has no business touching your car.
Which car is this pls?

vivalavida:


Acura tsx 2008 model

kingreign:


Check brake fluid level, if it’s alright, scan the car brake/ABS and post codes here.

kingreign:


Can you kindly take snapshots of the ECM label?

alaricsaltzman:

Here

kingreign:


I can’t tell, please, scan and post codes here

mejai:

What I found. Car still stalls occasionally.

kingreign:
for this code, replace the throttle pedal travel sensor. It’s located on the passenger firewall just behind the shock absorber mounting area under a small brace.

mejai:

Ok sir, pls do u have any idea about the price?

kingreign:


Speak to your programmer or whosoever got the ECu for you to replace it to the right part number let’s start properly.

alaricsaltzman:

Unfortunately, that's how I bought the car

THOP:
Good morning experts in the house. Please I noticed this anomaly on my Toyota Camry 2005 recently. Anytime I move a distance of about 1.5km, the vehicle will just start to drag and the transmission won’t select efficiently. I ran a scan and below are the results/trouble codes:

P2770, P0986, P0798 and P0128

Your advice is needed. Thanks.

kingreign:


Was the gear selecting the over drive gear (the 4th or last gear) before at the time of purchase or not?

alaricsaltzman:

That was my mistake.

I didn't drive the car on the express until after a week and I immediately noticed it wasn't entering 4

kingreign:

Hmmmm try replacing that ecm

alaricsaltzman:

I'll try. That's my last option.

Just that getting the correct part number is hard

Pitokwe:
I need help please.

A mechanic is saying we should buy a gear box control for Camry 2009. Who have information about this and how much it cost with its programming when installed

kingreign:


What type of engine is in the Camry and what type of gear box that is inside?

Pitokwe:


It's a V6 engine and 22pin gear box control module

It is the module that I am asked to change.

kingreign:


It’s been a long time I replaced these in any 22 pin and as such I am not abreast with the current prices. It’s can be matched to the transmission via programming but ensure you get a unit with same part number.

Pitokwe:


Okay many thanks. I hope I can get someone who can tell me because the mechanic is saying it is sold for 250k and another 10k for programming.

kingreign:


Where is your car located?

Pitokwe:


Somewhere around ilupeju Lagos

kingreign:


Your best bet is finding that thing in lagos and also if you don’t find your mechanic trust worthy, why leave your property in his care?

Pitokwe:


This is story for another day

Donphilex:


So you expected him sugar coat his words after your mumu mechanic take you for a spin you no just get sense no wonder the mechanic chop you , las las na sell you go sell the jalopy

lannre:


Your background means a lot. You don't even know if it's your grandfather you are talking to.

Is this what you do on social media?


People seek solutions... You jumped into a thread and start insulting.

kingreign:

Its turtle failure and the problem was from one of the sensor. It has been fixed, thanks for the input.
Let’s not guess, let’s have it scanned and post codes here.
