ECU is the brainbox

I have had this same Experience on my Honda Accord 08 v6 Evil spirit

There are two things most likely involved

1.) Like otheres have suggested you might have to use another ECU to test and see.

2. It might be the immobilizer unit I think, during my own time a guy from Oyingbo which is like Honda village in Lagos came and changed those things , they are around the steering side, and the computer connected with the car,

I'm 100% sure if you try both if this options you would solve your problem or be close to solving it

ghettochild4u:
You wouldn't be able to report sef cos una do illegal business..
Company will deny u both n the guy would definitely lose his job.
In essence, the company won't be liable..
And servicing a car doesn't cos gbege Ooo. Unless if he carelessly left certain part not adequately coupled

True ooo, illegal business, Lol,

Elsueno:
An average scanner for personal use is not that expensive. if I will remove like 3-5 million naira to buy a car. I see no reason why I won't add 100-200k to get a good diagnostic tool.

I have most of the tools to fix my car, changing parts etc...
When shyt hits the fan, I go to a mechanic....but we do the work together!

100-200k for a scanner taught scanner is like 20k or so

weyreypey:
Those guys also buy part from ladipo

Honestly I believe you those guys buy some parts from Ladipo, you aware Ladipo also sell used parts too ryt,

Was told buy a reliable source, they have their importers that supply them parts at a way cheaper rate

bonnyhope:
Pls I need an experienced mechanic for my car, '07 corolla

Your location Sir, I have someone

400billionman:
I just came to car talk because I want to buy another car. The last car I was using, my mechanic was busy extorting me like the Toyota guys you mentioned.

My car had exactly all the issues that you mentioned above.

To my greatest surprise, the mechanic said I needed a new engine. I was like wow, a car that starts and moves, it doesn't smoke, it still drops liquid from its exhaust due to my maintenance routine.

Just that the steering is stiff, the speedometer stopped reading and the day it stopped reading, I left your shop that day and noticed it. Then it doesn't accelerate fast, which he attributed to gear failure. He referred me to one gear guy and both of them kept extorting me endlessly, since I disagreed with giving him money for new engine. Everyday, they will tell me it's a new fault.

Oga, after I sold my car, the buyer told me the car needed a new radiator. I now remembered that the first time this car had such issues, there was a radiator overheat on the expressway that day and evaporation. So I just replaced coolant with water and sped off.

So I came to car talk so that I can start diagnosing my car by myself. I don't mind buying the diagnostic tool. I can't be feeding others under this buhary era for lack of knowledge.

Exactly ooo, that's the spirit, if not for youtube and constant reading online and car talk about my car they would have finished me, the Ladipo guy's would have finished me, It was when I read online I learnt that the ABS controls the steering and lots of other things not just the brake system, otherwise they were even telling me to change my steering rack Lol

Daviestunech:



I message one to to to help me fix my AC....he said for diagnosis I will 15k.... before he could know wetin to fix...I just jejely ignore him....Nd fix the same ac for 8k

Wow just diagnosis 15k e never even start work ooo it means to fix it would cost like 30k ooo

uboma:
LoL

400k will even buy both bumpers with so much balance remaining.

Lol I'm telling you

The price they gave you is outrageous and would have bought another car but hope you know that official car auto shops don't use tokunbo parts and they order parts directly from company. There was a time I went to acura.com to select some parts and accessories for my car. I only made a few selections and before I know it, I already have $7000 (3.1m plus shipping cost) in my wallet invoice. Mo yaa japa
The reason we can afford to buy this parts is cause of people at Ladipo and we should appreciate them a little more. Especially the ones that sell good parts.
I recently watched a YouTube video of a car restoration done by a white guy, when he was done, he did a calculation of how much he spent and it was above $14,000 (6.3m). Guess what, the car was a Toyota Corolla 2014.
I'm not saying the qoute you were give was not high as a Nigerian but you should know that this people don't calculate in naira and they don't buy from Ladipo contrary to what someone said up there. They buy directly from company. If you had paid that 3.5m, they will give you a date to come in and you'll see all the parts right inside package from the company directly.

Wow, so without the Ladipo guys we all we would really be suffering ooo

Back in 2006, my aunt whom I stayed with had a brand new Corolla of same year bought from Elim Motors.

Time for servicing and when we took the car to Elim motors service center, service charges were in the excess of 20k (mind you, this was in 2006)

Negotiated with one of their mechanics and he came to the house at a later date to do same servicing for less than 5k.

That mechanic took risks Sha because if anything had gone wrong, guess where we would have gone to report to...

Wow, I taught of doing that too, I wanted to collect one of the Engineer's number there and let him come and do it for me, but I just decided to stick with my own mechanic

Bluehill1051:
@Realteeyee123 kindly consider the 3.5 million as 350K. The last zero was a mistake. They meant 350,000 not 3500000. People make mistakes nah

Lol you might be right though, I think it was a mistake

Olmat:
Good day my Honorables.

Please I need your advice on which car to buy for e-hailing business. I'm having options of toyota corolla 2003 - 2005 model or Honda Civic 2005 - 2008 Model, though I'm tilting towards Honda Civic 07/08 model. Please which should I choose?, I don't Wana make mistakes.

I drive a Honda Civic 06/07 very durable but would advise you go for the Corolla it's more rugged , and that particular corolla nickname is called Uber corolla and you want to use it for Uber , perfect match , they don't call civic Uber civic lol

anthonyuncle:
truth is, the service center of these companies don't repair parts, they change them.
they have to import these parts direct from the company's manufacturing factory. the cost will involve cost of the original part plus cost of its importation plus profit.

my issue with this your case is that you can use that amount they charged you (₦3.5m) to get clean toks of that same model, and they know this.

Exactly, they know it, i used to think they get their parts from Ladipo too Lol someone told me that a big time importer in Ladipo supplies then some parts atimes, don't know how true that is though

xProfx:
3.5m is an awful lot of money, but you must know that these folks will go the extra mile to fix your car and they use 100% brand new original parts from Toyota which would cost more than what you would get at Ladipo, even if you don't see the difference. Toyota Place makes its money from government auto sales and services... So middle class income isn't their target.

Also, you said your mechanic is "not a kazeem" so I want to believe you value skills and experience, so how much do you think he made from the job despite his experience and hardwork, probably less than 20k right? They can't charge you that at Toyota place obviously.

We don't want to pay high for services but we want the best, that's why there are less people involved in vocational training. Either ways, next time, go to where their services would be commensurate with your income.

You right though but I think the Guy made like 25 - 30k cause I bought the ABS and everything associatied with it myself.

id4sho:
3.5m for sharp 09 corolla , local man don't give up.

Well dad's Peugeot 407 09 rear bumper was charged @400k yr2013. Panel beater fixed it 3k

I taught my case was bad this beats that 400k against 3k Wow, used to think this guys were merciful not until I tried them , their charges are just mind blowing

incogni2o:
Wao

Yh same reaction I had too

Realteeyee123:
Quite a lengthy post but it's worth it

I drive a 2012 Toyota Corolla thumbstart, and the car has been giving me lots of issues, the gear lever area always gets hot when I drive the car for less than 20 minutes, the ABS was bad, and as a result the steering was stiff and the brake light was on, plus the ABS light too, the metal and bearing was damaged due to poor servicing over the years, car was bought brand new though, the legs were all bad, and lots of smaller issue.

I took the car to Toyota place and they said I should pay 50k for a diagnostic scan which I did, and less than a week later they called and said to fix the car would cost me 3.5m naira I just quietly parked the car at home, and this month I decided to gather some money and fix it.

You won't believe I spent a total of 180k to fix all the issues.

I gave my mechanic really experienced guy not a kazeem , 100k and he fixed the Gear stuff, legs replaced the metal and bearing, painter also painted the front and back bumpers too, Plugs and coil, etc but the steering was still stiff and the speedometer wasn't working still, he said I needed to change the ABS.

I bought ABS at Ladipo for 50k paid the guy that connected it 5k, paid a scanner guy 5k to scan for all codes both ABS and check engine, and we noticed after fixing the ABS the steering was still stiff and speedometer didn't work, the code was a leg sensor issue bought it and everything came back to life, ABS light went off speedometer worked and steering was very free, but after some time ABS light came back and we scanned again and it said the passenger sensor is also bad, but it doesn't affect the steering and speedometer side it's the driver sensor that controls that, so would buy that this week. In total I spent 180k to put the car back on the road.


The only light showing on the dashboard currently is the ABS light due to the passenger side sensor I'm yet to change and the Airbag light, no codes again. When we scanned, and car drives really well

What I've learnt from all this is all these companies place like Toyota, Honda place, Coscharis, their charges are crazy and expensive, a job of less than 200k they can say 3m so funny

Pls share your experience if you have visited one of this places before and what was it like compared to when you fixed the car with our local mechanic,

Would really like to know if anyone has experienced a similar stuff or being charged exorbitantly buy a mechanic and the fixing it for a far cheaper amount , what was the issue with your car and how did you do it, I just feel like I won a lottery, feel like going back to Toyota Place and telling them that I've done it Lol ������, I really doged a bullet
