Thanks Am4obama and Radautowork.

I will go and scan my car, but I observe my engine light is not coming up on my dashboard, doesn't it mean that my engine is fine and my car is still consuming fuel.

Secondly which of the sensor should I change, is it the
1. Oxygen sensor
2. Coolant temperature sensor
3. Camshaft position sensors
4. Crankshaft position sensor
5. Throttle position sensors (Tps)
6. Vehicles/transmission speed sensor
7. MAP sensor
8. Knock sensor
9. Charger temperature sensor
10. MAP sensor connection

Lastly, where can I scan my car my car in lagos.

A scan will tell you. Obviously we do them but any decent mechanic should be able to run one for you or if you know someone with a scanner, have them scan and post results on NL

Hello Everyone.
I need advice on Compressor.
My car (Camry 07) compressor is bad. I want to change it. The Technician said I should use manual compressor.
Which one should I go for between Auto Compressor and Manual Compressor?

I have a similar case to yours. My 2013 Camry's engine is a bit noisy and has a poor gas mileage, however there's no light on the dashboard. I suspected the catalyst is absent or damaged but then I felt if that was the case then the engine light should appear on the dashboard.

Honda? Fluid transmission temp might be too high.

A transaction done hundred of miles away (zaria to Lagos) done smoothly, no calls even, just WhatsApp chats, shikenan.

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by wizzle772: 4:53pm On Nov 17, 2020
Please I have issue with my Honda civic 2006, I just change the engine. If I drive the car for like 10 minute the throttle will stop firing, I will not be able to climb the smallest of hills, I will throttle it the the last and it won't response. I did scan and its showing P1683 and radiator sender issue. I think of changing the fuel pump. Please kindly advice on what to do.

Is Mobil Super 5W-30 not okay to use? Plz advise/enlighten because i intend to start using it from when next i service my car.
Its a synthetic blend so i guess thats why its much cheaper than the full synthetic.

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by omorkelly(m): 5:59pm On Nov 18, 2020
Dear Gazzuz, Blackbishop, Kingreign and otters;
My Camry 2006 fuel gauge stopped working after changing the fuel pump. The technician has tried all he could but didn't get it.
A confirmed working gauge was installed but didnt work in my car.
Also a working cluster was connected but still did not work.
At a time the cluster didn't even come uo at all but that was later fixed.
What else can i do.
Pls anyone that can fix it should signify
Thanks.
