My blood ask me to sell my 2010 corolla car that is full of problems, he added about 70% of cash for me to get another tokunbo 2008 corolla. I sent my part of the money to him and he got it for me. I was using it for bolt but the car dey drain fuel, I took it to rewire it was discovered the catalyst has been removed. I told my blood he said he always buy cars from the same dealer and has not seen any issue. Now I am confused as I am only working for passenger and bolt no profit |

quinSonia:What is "multiple things"? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Macmilla(m): 9:38am On Apr 03 |
Fatbam005:The bold part is the only relevant part of this post. The rest is just stories that touch the kidneys. Only God knows what you mean by "my blood". Your cat has been removed. If you need it back, then buy another one and put. But believe it or not, your catalyst has little or nothing to do with fuel economy. It is specifically for emissions control (reducing the bad gases released into the atmosphere). Find out what is wrong with your car and have peace. Start by scanning the car cos I know there must be multiple errors codes. 4 Likes |

Good morning. So my Toyota corolla 2006 is jerking when u put the gear in drive. Also when i am accelerating...as it changes from gear 1 to 2, you ll feel the jerk(a kind of forward push). I have heard the issue with my matrix before,and it was the gear mount that got broken,it was changed and the jerking stopped. But now, the mechanic checked all the engine seat and gear mount and they are intact. Transmission fluid is well gauged and pink. Injector, fuel filter and plugs are fine. However, we noticed that the bottom plate of the gear has hit ground before and slightly pressed inward. The mechanic plan to open it and straightened it out, he said the gear might be forcefully drawing oil because of that. He also said there's a worn up 'cup' beside the gear which he has packed.(that However didn't resolve the issue) The jerk is just a bit exergerrated beyond the normal gear engagement you ll normally notice when you engage the gear. From my previous experience....it shows thesame way it does with my matrix untill i changed the gear mount. I was suprise this corolla isn't gear mount issue. Please any plausible suggestions 🙏 GAZZUZZ: |

Please house, how do I fix P0012 error in my 2006 Toyota Camry. Please is it a very severe error? Thanks in advance. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Dpzeewonder: 4:34pm On Apr 04 |
NB:I don't know much about auto terminologies Please i drive a Nissan Sunny ex saloon 2004 manual transmission.It happened that i was driving recently then i stopped in traffic,but i noticed my car was doing as if it was going to go off which prompted me to keep pressing the throttle just to keep the engine working.Thinking it was fuel,i bought more fuel then hit the road,this time around the car started jerking which i managed to drive it home.Later i took it to a mechanic's place to maybe increase what i understood as "SLOW",a move that got my car system destabilized completely because he first asked me to change my spark plugs,which i did,yet the problem persists,he loosen what he called Airflow meter,he loosen throttle cable.Once he starts the car,it will start normally and immediately the sound will reduce like the car will go off then picks up again.Since he did not get what's wrong,he disconnected a sensor telling me it the airflow meters that are beginning to go bad,immediately he disconnected the airflow meter above the compressor,the check engine sign came up. To shorten the whole story,another mechanic looked at it yesterday who asked me to change fuel pump,buy injector cleaner,i did all these,yet no changes,he checked the sensors.While trying to check the crankshaft sensor located in a very difficult part of the engine,the car would not start again,when he tried to key in the sensor back as he was unable to remove it,the sensor broke,Now the sensor has been removed by a panel beater and i sent money for another one,when the car would not start he scanned it and he got a Crankshaft sensor error,Please what can you suggest with this whole story and experience of mine because this car is one car that does not give me issue but unfortunately am experiencing this at the moment. Kindly help,thanks. |

GAZZUZZ: Hello boss, the problem isn't over. I'm sort of confuse sef. I found the component (see attached) and realized the blade lifted from where it should make contact as seen in the picture. So, I took it to a technician for soldiering. I ensured he used an original led wire to solder it, then I inserted back the unit and it worked, but before I drove from the guy's place to my house the blade had separated from the contact again and the plate/mirror area was sort of hot. What could be the problem? 1 Share

GAZZUZZ: I was thinking something else could be causing the soldering to detach. Or does it mean the thing is bad? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 8:11am On Apr 07 |
samuelson06: There is a reason those contacts are not soldered. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by samuelson06(m): 8:37am On Apr 07 |
GAZZUZZ: Can you throw more light, please? Are you implying that if I get a new one the contact won't cut off? |
