Comrades, please what is the best engine oil for 2005 Honda Civic? The more I browse it the more confused I am. The last person that serviced it said he used Mobil XHP, I don't even know the viscosity |

Deigofortune: Blinking Check light is misfire which is fix by change of plug and or change of coil packs. Original china plug is 3500 for a pair, it may have increased now so probably the plugs you bought is low quality or fake. In your report cylinder 2 didn't show up, you need to buy ur own scanner if you can then remove cylinder 2 plug and coil and switch around individually for 1,3 and 4 and see whether the error is still in those cylinder. If no error means your issue is plug or coil, if cylinder 2 accessories still shows error in those other cylinder then engine is the culprit or another thing. Now Rescan vehicle and collect all codes, you could have ignition issues causing those misfire 2 Likes |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Deigofortune: 7:08am On Jul 18, 2023 |
Thanks for ur response... Actually I bought 2 original plug 3500 x2 ... At first due tro low funds, but instead of me to see results or changes it seems to be worse, asin engine brink frequently, in less than 2mins drive, besides dey pervious plug was confirmed by my mechanic that they're all Good, ..... Which got me more confused, first I was suspecting coil, that's after I experience overheating, which resulted to 3 coil of my burnt, so I managed to but 3coil...then |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nurey(m): 2:07pm On Jul 18, 2023 |
Deigofortune: You have 3 cylinders misfire but only attended to two, if one cylinder misfire the engine light will blink, acceleration response will be low and exhaust fumes notice in cabin with black soot in exhaust. Also extreme vibration at stops. Just scan the car now let's work with the codes, personal scanners start from 7k upwards 2 Likes |

I need tips on how reduce and manage fuel usage for my Toyota Highlander. The fuel consumption is fair now since I changed the o2 sensors, air filter and fuel pump. But something still tells that gas milage/consumption is high. I just got it and have been driving a v4 Honda before now |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nurey(m): 2:21pm On Jul 19, 2023 |
Mayeldah: There is no magic to fuel reduction though, manufacturers stat is for new cars, your car has gone through alot of wear and tear so fuel economy is reduced. Also the fuel sold in Nigeria has a bad octane rating which burns quickly while delivering less energy to engine. Your best bet is to sell the highlander and buy a smaller car with better mpg than the highlander 6 Likes |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Mayeldah(m): 3:13pm On Jul 19, 2023 |
nurey: Thanks bro, maybe cause I have been driving a v4 car all these years. Anyway, I got the Highlander as a status car for my level. effective management tips will be welcome sir. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nurey(m): 3:46pm On Jul 19, 2023 |
Mayeldah: Reduce weight, remove all the chairs, radio, AC component, extra tire, jack, wheel spanner also never buy full tank but quater tank. With all these removed, your fuel mpg will improve 1 Like |

Despite all my tweaks,02 sensors and all my engine still runs rich and na minus 6mpg fron 22mpg City...now I'm on half tank today. From 7pins to full tank. Na half tank 2 Likes |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Dozieson(m): 7:58pm On Jul 20, 2023 |
Felakezman:n P0113 -intake air temperature sensor is either faulty or cable broken or disconnected. Could also be triggered by P0102 P0102- Mass air flow sensor faulty or cable broken or disconnected. Could also be clean and reinstalled. P0420- either catalyst is stolen or evap canister issue. You can ignore P0016- could mean your oil level is not up to guage, dirty oil, vvt solenoid clogged with gum or sludge, or timing not properly set. I believe your engine has been worked on. Hope you are no having hard starting |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Dozieson(m): 5:10am On Jul 21, 2023 |
Felakezman: Okay, how is the fuel consumption? Most times there is no need for replacement. Could be removed, cleaned and replaced. |
