You don't do this on someone else thread. If you feel you have sufficient knowledge on vehicle repairs, start up your own thread. Nairaland needs more threads like this to address vehicle issues.

hello are you around?

I just experienced something on a rx350 car ,while driving it suddenly started making this ka ka noise and it stopped firing..like I really cannot fire anymore..

I just packed it at the nearest mechanic and what he's saying Is that buttom plate something ripped and was overheating

In towing the car now to my place...

My RAV4 has been consuming more fuel than normal. Has it scanned and this is what I got. How do I resolve these?

Hi, good morning
I’m around.

Where’s the car located?
Did you observe if the engine coolant temperature suddenly went up or did you observe the oil pressure light come up?

This is a V6 rav4 with 2GR-FE. Your A/F sensor close to the radiator needs to be replaced
For the P0505, check for leaks around the intake manifold and clean your throttle body with appropriate cleaners.

Was the car recently serviced or did you bump hard onto a hard surface or was the engine recently worked upon?

My engine is actually 4 plugs but with 4 O2 sensors. I had to change two upper sensors today and one sensor behind the injector mouth. The black sooth has disappeared and I saw dropping from the exhaust. Generally, the car is now more stable

What is the implications boss, cos this is the temporary solution given today when the rx300 couldn't idle low.. it starts and die off. Even after cleaning the Air control sensor attached to the throttle body.

I don’t know where the vacuum line starts from and where they terminated at. However, cracked vacuum lines can cause high idle, stalling, rough idling, or some other idling issues.

[quote author=3kay945 post=120455513][/quote] remotely diagnosing such issues will be difficult honestly.
As he said, whoever would be working on the car needs to physically trace the vacuum lines and components it's attached to.
It could be anything actually.

Good day boss, Please my Honda accord 2004 goes off when i start it, but if i start it and then fire it a little while, it won't go off.

I’m sure the car is equipped with an OBD 2 port. Why not scan it and post codes, let’s take it up from there?

Hello house, please I'm I just being paranoid or is my car just consuming too much fuel lately?

I've bought from both Eternal and Energymatic that have good fuel, but consumption rate still seem high. So I decided to monitor the last fuel I got.

192kms was my ODO reading for the 26 liters of fuel I got. All city drive, mostly with AC. Spent little time in traffic during this time.

For an 05 Corolla, please is this a fair return?

Recently, I've had to change my plugs and air filter, service my injector and nozzles.

PH. But what does it really matter the location? I already mentioned that little time was spent on traffic during this time.

The reason I asked was traffic volume but it’s no problem since you have earlier stated about the traffic issue.
Can you kindly scan the car and post codes pls?
Also, If your car radiator fan is constantly coming on pls revert back to factory as it may cause the car system not to go to closed loop.

I've scanned twice and no error code came up.

My thermostat is functional and radiator on factory settings.

Can the choice of oil used to service impact on fuel consumption rate?
