I always advise folks to avoid early model CVTs from Nissan’s JATCO, in same vein, I’m telling you too.

Good evening kingreign, would you advise getting an RX350 2020 (fsport) or Hyundia sonata 2020 1.6T. The ride major function would be plying Lagos ibadan express road at least 3 times a month business trips, and a Lagos to kano(holiday) route twice a year. The intended owner is not interested in a prado/Lexus LX series. Don't know why.

RX is a better car and it’s better for long endurance driving compared to the Hyundai Sonata.

Good day everyone.
Pls, I used 2009 toyota camry with 2.4l engine, I bought the car tokunbo few months ago, when it due for service, I called my mechanic to change the oil and we used fully synthetic hardex 0w20 and after some days I discovered blue white smoke emitted from the exhaust pipe after a startup in the morning and it disappeared in seconds. My mechanic advice we should drain the oil and change it to hardex 5w30 i agreed and we change the but yet the smoke hasn't stopped, it happened every morning and discovered there's little shortage of oil in my car since my last service. Pls what could be a possible solution to problems

If my car colour is blue and I decide to repaint it red or brown. Is there any implications ? Because the colour on d receipt is blue.

Court affidavit
Police extract for change of colour
And a careful, experienced and patient painter.

Y not retain your factory colour!

Got this code when the vehicle was scanned...note abs was changed due to abs light on the dash board. Then car traveled from Lagos to the southeast and the check engine light came on. This picture is the result of the scan done following the appearance of the check engine light.

...NB ...update the brake and abs lights flash on the dashboard after driving for sometime, it doesn't affect the driving or the handling of the vehicle while driving....this was noticed this evening & the scan done in the afternoon

I bought direct toks of Toyota Corolla 03 and I discovered it has a fault.
The fuel gauge does not reflect the actual fuel in the fuel tank.
For instance, my tank was almost empty and I bought 20 litres of petrol, but the fuel gauge was showing tank full.

What should I do

Your technician should reinstall the fuel pump ASSY the correct way and should be in the correct alignment to enable the float move freely as the amount of the fuel in the tank moves.

Same thing i am experiencing with my matrix 2.4l engine. I am currently using hardex oil 5w30.

Yes you may, he is right, but if you don’t have the mind or funds you may switch to higher oil weight.

Did you clear the code, restart the car and drive again?

Sir no the car handles fine with/without the codes. Didn't clear it...as said it disappears and appears

I also have this abs issue. I have been having it complain of the front right side . I have changed abs sensor several times. The light will go off and after some minutes driving , it will come back up.
Now, it is complaining of the rear left also.
My dashboard will light up abs, vdc, and even brake light at times.

I have also being battling this error code p2a00. I have changed o2 sensor for this. Now the code became p0420 when I scanned Making the "Check engine light " to come up .

kingreign:


Was the engine worked upon recently?

NO and thanks for the update .. can u chat me on WhatsApp 08032962213

This is a nissan or Infiniti. Pls what model and year is this car? Have you scanned it?

kingreign:

Yes it is a Nissan. Rogue 08. Yes I have scanned it. Happen to open the catalyst chamber close to the engine and found it is empty. Replacing the catalyst should likely fix the p0420 code.

The main issue now is the abs light that comes up which Scanner scans as c1103. I have changed the sensor about 5 times now. The abs light goes off after installation and comes back on few minutes when driving

Check the affected wheel Hub if the reluctor ring is still intact.

It is. Mechanic even sandpapered inside

New updates... i also noticed that when the abs and brake lights come on the odometer stops working so i can't gauge the speed nor the distance travelled...however the rpm indicator works...and the car handles fine despite these issues
What should I do?

Good evening. Please I noticed the check engine sign on my dashboard that used to be stationary recently started blinking for about 20 seconds (twice a day) and when it happens my car kinda vibrates and then goes back to normal when the blinking stops. What could be the reason? I drive a 2008 camry muscle.

Kingreign, you are really doing a good job here. God bless you immensely. Please I have a problem with my RX350, 2011 model.


The Ac, fluctuates. Sometimes, it comes on and after a while, it blows only air. I also noticed that it hardly comes on in hot weather and if it's on and chilling, it can start blowing only air when I step harder on the accelerator. I took it to an AC repairer and the baba said I have to change the compressor to the manual type and we need to get a rewire to change the wiring to suite the manual compression. Immediately he finished talking, i enter my car run. When the AC comes on properly, it's chills very well

Please help me out with Ford ecosport 2014, reviews. Is it a reliable car, is it economical, please i need advice.. Thanks

Greetings to you sir, pls, I am not very well versed in AC issues, so I can’t advise you on this matter, however, pls get the advise from Mobus.

Scan, you likely have a misfire, then fix.
