Originakalokalo:
Thank you for this insight. Do you have an idea on the price of the external cooler?

Thanks again.

Originakalokalo:
My car is thermostat controlled and as such, the fan comes on only when the engine is "hot". How does this help cooling the transmission?

calculation:
Your initial design by vehicle manufacturer is to use liquid (in this case COOLANT) to extract heat from your transmission oil whenever it passes through coolant in the radiator. So anytime radiator fan start, it means the rate of heat extraction will be fast than before because air flow through radiator extract the heat and it depend on your speed at a given time.
When external oil cooler is use, air flow will do the job of cooling and the rate will still depend on speed, but immediately fan start its operation, the rate of cooling will increase. So if your thermostat kick in fan operation, then this will till aid cooling as normal.

calculation:
My Brother, that ivtec na Wahala, if I tell you that the solution is not replacement bit 1K cost if you can do it yourself.

kelvinmnet:
The sensor is around 10k, if am not mistaken

berbs112:
I have experienced this in the past. Your rewire needs to check the IVtech sensor at the back of the engine, left hand side. It might be clogged or needs replacement

Atolani11:
A new ivtec sensor solved the problem

My car vibrate when accelerating. It use to be very lite during on lower gear. But I think it's now more prominent. It's just drive rough when that vibration.

Could this be shaft?

Although still managing it like this. Will this cause the leg to pull if I continue managing it like this?

calculation:
That is good. Note it now that you just extend the reoccurrence of the leakage with time. By design location, the seal filter tend to flat with time and allow oil leakage.

calculation:
Just drop contact number to call. I may not be chance to explain here

Atolani11:
I never said it was leaking.
There was never an oil leakage.
The sensor just primarily failed to raise the car beyond 80km/per hour.

Atolani11:
When you typed this...i actually knew you were just looking who to collect money from.... chai..Nigerians and their doings.
Now you condem the solution again just because i didn't call you or send you money

kelvinmnet:
Check your shaft cup, the grease may have been washed out by the flood.

Also check your bushings and other parts not tight or slightly loose.

Your breakdisk can also cause the vibration.

Check all of these, am sure on of them will be the culprit.

fineboynl:
before seeing you post. It turns out the driver site tyre has cut threads. and the tyre lost shap. We change the tyre and the wheel hub which was affected. The vibration reduced and it now only happens at first acceleration but once the car take off it stops. I also noticed some shake at hard braking.

That's about 14mpg. That's high.

jceesquare:
What's the repair history of the car?
I asked because of the timing code.
A live data would give you a clearer picture of what's wrong with the car and why it's consuming fuel.

Hybrid600:
When you say "live data" do you mean high end scanner or real time physical inspection?

jceesquare:
Live data stream from a professional scanner. It gives a real time information of what each sensor and solenoids are doing.
Different from scanning for fault codes.
