Hi House. I have an HONDA EOD. The engine doesn't start and the fuel pump is not pumping fuel. Several rewires have checked it. One is claiming I have to change 8 relay fuses. The other is claiming he wants to check the brain box at the workshop. Any one ever experienced such problem?

Want to get a car. Was looking towards tokumbo until I stumbled upon IVM Caris. It's brand new and considerably affordable. Even better ... its Innoson a made in Nigeria car. So what better way to start 2021 than with such. However, there are no thorough reviews on the car. You're an expert so I suspect you might've heard a thing or 2 about it. What is your take.

Good morning, My Toyota Venza engine doesn't crank again at start attempt. The car has been parked for a while and i attempted warming it one morning and heard a awful sound like the belt cut off when i tried raising the car and the engine stopped. I checked to confirm and the belt was intact. A mechanic checked to see if he can turn the engine but it was stiff. Please what can i do cos he adviced a new engine replacement.

Good evening, I have a Honda Pilot 2006 model. I have noticed for sometime now that anytime I have driven the car like 30min or so and I want to reverse, it makes a very loud noise (immediately I shift to R) that the car will vibrate. Secondly, sometimes while driving, the 'D' will be blinking. I took it for scanning, and they scanned and fixed it but it still continues to happen. Some mechanic said that I should replace the gear (where money dey?). Some said it's the gear switch. I don't have the money for another gear. Please, gurus in the house, HELP ME OUT!

Please what is the most reliable and affordable bus you would recommend for haulage of farm produce and supermarket products like soft drinks, tin tomatoes, etc.

A bus with automatic gear, good fuel economy, very rugged, with strong legs to carry plenty load, easy to maintain by regular mechanics, 4wd preferred.

I was thinking of the Volkswagen Vanagon camper (regular danfo with engine inside the booth & a flat face), but getting the automatic transmission has been difficult.

Please what do you suggest? I would really appreciate helpful feedbacks.

Thank you

My hubby recently bought Honda CR-V 2003 model(Naija used) for me. It has been from one issue to another. At first it was the gear but it was fixed,one of the days I took the car out it just stopped on the road and the mechanic came to check the car and said he will change a certain switch which he did. In the last 2days now,when driving the steering will be hard all of a sudden and the car will go off showing battery sign on the dashboard. The battery is relatively new,please what do you advice I do?

I responded to this somewhere

Hi the engineers in the house, i need your help seriously..

I bought this ford rangers 2012 from a company that it has a faulty top cylinder & not moving . So after i bought it i tow it to my mechanic and he fixed it by changing the top gasket or top cylinder, (i dnt really know) & it works for just 5days when it started over hitting & other malfunctioning.

So i took to other mechanics and open it, only for him to tell me that my mechanic did a bad job, that d car should rather be taken to a diesel mechanic for proper repair instead of my mechanic (a petrol mechanic).

So now d mechanic opened it & be given unnecessary bill (cost)
Now d bill he gives me is too much & i need d following here

1. A good diesel mechanic in Lagos as i base in ajah
2. How much can d top gasket cost
3. How much can i get Cylinder assy benjohn (thats d name he called it)
4. What can be d solution to this problem as d oil now mixed with water
5. How much can new engine or very good tokunbo cost
.. P

Pls i need ur timely assistance and response as i am regretting buying d car already
