Wike is trying to tell us that the Governor seat will still remain in the Ikwerre/Orashi region. The battle is between Felix Obuah and Emeka Woke. Magnus Abe sold the Ogonis out and no serious party will trust them in rivers state.

Wheew,finally...
I got in contact with mrford today and had my issue resolved.
So for those who know,I have been having issues with my Corolla as check engine light and trac off light illuminated on the dashboard and vibrations followed.
So I got in touch with Mrford here on NL through rationalmind and he came,almost punctual(traffic maybe) and scanned the car and it appeared cylinder 4 was misfiring.
Did his thing and it's all good now with dashboard showing no single light.
I will like to recommend him to most of the phc guys here as I can vouch for his sincerity,humility and professionalism.
It's(cartalk) getting better I guess

I met with him on Monday.. I drove to his house and he checked my fuel level sending unit.. After diagnosing my Car he said i should go and drive it for some time.... I asked what was his charges and he said i should go... It was like a dream to me here in PHC where someone will do that for free.... I didn't leave until he collected the little I have for him.... I just wish he will get a nice space not too far to the main town...

Hello gurus in the house, My Toyota sienna bus 2005 is consuming lots of fuel, pls what can I do to reduced it. Thanks

Where are you located?.. find a way to scan the Car

timifakay:
You should always scan for codes before doing anything on your car

Changed my fuel level sensor yesterday.... I noticed smell of fuel when i park the car for some minutes.... This morning I drove the Car for 40KLM and i scanned the Car... I got P0441, P0455, P0446.... Can i clear the codes and drive for some time to see if they will come up again, Can i travel with the car?

Abbeyme:
Nice one.

I was preparing the vehicle again for a new week at that time. So I once opened my car engine to 'top' the oil - this is occasioned by my discovery - there is 'dripping' at my parking lot caused by a small leakage in the bottom oil seal. Before I topped the oil, I discovered some black 'frozen engine oil' just below the cover and above the crank (or what looked like the crank).
Is that the sludge?

How can I safely and permanently dislodge it?

Which oil do you think is desirable for my Corolla 2005? Miles is about 230k or thereabouts.

That’s sludge. Attached is my engine top

HeavenlyBang:
Can confirm, cat deletes don't directly affect fuel economy at all.

Please how can one get the O2 Spacer.... I'm in Port Harcourt.

Hmmmm

Welcome to Naija where the law enforcement agents are enforcing money into their pockets instead of enforcing laws. A policeman stopped me here in PH and told me point blank that my papers are complete but I won’t go until I give him 1K to do weekend. I was shocked.

Kashif:
You did the better thing. I have comprehensive with excess buyback, and don't really care about tracker. What will tracker do in accident, fire, vandalism, third party etc.

Last week, I was going to work around 6am. Close to Ojuelegba, a lone biker lost control and fell just about 5-6 meters in front of me! Luckily, his small bike was between us, and I was barely able to stop with his bike under, and himself a few inches away!

It took out my bumper, fog light and windscreen washer reservoir. He got up and was apologising. What if it was more serious? What if I had killed him? You see why insurance a better? They picked the small repair bill

Please which Insurance company?

HeavenlyBang:
Yep. Remove the cat and install spacers. It'll fool the ECU into thinking a cat is present.

But what about the consumption of fuel?

HeavenlyBang:
Can confirm, cat deletes don't directly affect fuel economy at all.

Can 02 spacer work in case of faulty Cat?

nurey:
The fuel pump should have the guaging mechanism, he should bring the complete fuel pump out and test, though most often if the tank slams road surface or rocks and the tank is compressed, it would affect the guaging mechanism meaning to get the right reading, you have to fix the tank.

I scanned the car and got P0460..

KINGreignn:
Fuel pump ASSY problem, ECU problem.

Have you worked on the pump before or replaced the ECU or the speedometer before?

If yes, reverse what was done.

Scan show P0460...

ksmart027:
You have a faulty fuel guage sender.

Does that mean the fuel pump will be changed?

radautoworks:
Apologies to anyone who might need me for a few days. I will be unavailable for a few day. Currently in transit. Will be able to give full attention on the 4th or 5th.

In the mean time, you have a while crew at the shop ready to help. Full contact information in my signature.

Please what can make fuel gauge to be giving wrong reading. Sometimes when I have more than half tank fuel, and drive for some minutes the gauge will show that I am having 1/4 tank. If I park for some time and start driving again it will go back to the normal gauge of 1/2 tank. Please what can be the cause so that I can tell my Mechanic what to do. Car is 06 Camry.

9icetoo:
Hmmmm. So you've replaced coil and serviced the fuel supply and yet it persists.
Swap coil and injector on that cylinder with those on another cylinder. Swap plugs too. Clear the codes. If it comes back to that same cylinder, then you have an internal problem. If the code moves to the new cylinder you transferred the coil, plug and injector to, then one of those items is the culprit. That's all I can think of for now.
other people might have better solutions.
However this solution, or rather diagnostic check is not invasive and can be performed by you or your mechanic at little or not cost which is why I recommend it. Keep us posted.

Contact Gazzuzz. I bought mine from him and He waybilled it to me in PH. 1 liter is 4500 and you will need about 5.

sheu01:
In term of fuel economy, corolla is far better than camry

Overall performance and safety the Camry better.

Namzy:
Thanks for replying. Unfortunately I'm in Anambra state

Go to the biggest spare part market there. You will get lot of options to choose from.

funkymeky:
Thanks but how can I get in touch with Gazzuzz?

Search for his name and contact him with the WhatsApp link on his page. He will give you Chuks number. Hope Woji is not far for you.

Namzy:
The fuel door of toyota rav4 2006 fell off and I've been looking for a replacement. Please anyone that can help out should reply thanks.

If you’re in Lagos go to Ladipo. Or go to any spare parts market anywhere.

Please where can I get a good auto mechanic for my Lexus ES350 in port Harcourt. I don't mean road side mechanics. A good auto maintenance company that specializes in modern Toyoto and Lexus cars will be very much appreciated. Their location and contact number will be very much appreciated too. And can I get a good Ac technician here in port harcour

Get in touch with Gazzuzz. He will give you contact of Mr Chuks, He’s in Woji.

GAZZUZZ:
have you tried 195/75/14?

2006 Camry with 215/65/15 to low in my area because of bumps. Can I change to 215/65/16 won’t it affect the balance of the Car? Please urgent.

nurey:
Car hailing cannot be cheaper, depends on where you work and what you intend to do.

ikorodu to Marina is 700, Marina to CMS is 100, CMS to Lekki is 200 Lekki to office in okada 100 just for 1 trip, how is it cheaper?

[/b]I understand what you are trying to say I don't drive my car to work currently because from my house to work is 150naira and same amount back, if I intend to do exercise, it's 50naira for 1 trip,[b] so if I was using car for that trip it would be a waste. He must have factored in his transport expenses before thinking of buying a car.

There are people earning wayless monthly and they maintain a car perfectly, op should just cut his coat according to his size

I can't remember when last i drive my car to office... I spend 200 daily on transportation.. Owing a car is not luxury but something necessary if one can afford it.

woodrow:
That radio player has been in camry since 2002 and ended in 2006.why have u chosen to show ur ignorance on a forum when u can just do simple finding? Inspection is free by the way.

That radio player was in Camry made between 2002/2005. A Camry that has 2006 Vin does not carry that radio. Attached is the radio player Camry made in 2006.

IMOHS:
Car will be shipped from usa. Seller says repairs will be done in Nigeria within 48hrs. Please house, what do you think about the repairs. Should I go ahead

Run. Or you tell the seller to use his money to fix it and you pay in full when the car is repaired and tested.
