GAZZUZZ:
same thing. Try and replace entire gear.

same thing i told the guy. That I'd rather buy another gear than repair the present.

How much does the gear cost over there in Lagos?

GAZZUZZ:
Very likely friction plate issue.

oga, I still dey here o. I never find solution yet o

A guy who fixes gear said the fiber will need change and will cost 30k to fix. I told him to leave it.


Pls, which is the friction plate? Google search hasn't helped me much

Good job boss

How people dey use motor sef

GAZZUZZ:
Very likely friction plate issue.

what's the solution boss

diportivo:
"academy" started in 97 or later...the euro version of "babyboy"

"bullet" is the euro version of "bulldog"...from '93

I used to think Adidas is the Euro version for babyboy

williamskoli:
I need you guys help

yes. Honda accord 95 also called Academy

Specialist900:

I've got the 3rd gear pressure switch circuit changed. The code didn't return but all my gear still slips during change to upward gears. It does not slip when downshifting. What could be my gear problem o

oga gazzuzz, I still await your inputs.

Thank you sir

GAZZUZZ:
As long as Nothing has been damaged, bring it in ill reset the idle speed for you.

If you bring it in today sat 3rd june 2017 Between 10am-3pm it will be done for free.

na this kind thing wan make me pack my load come Lagos.

Keep it up sir

GAZZUZZ:
It affects the functionality of the transmission adversely.

Fix that code and a lot of problems will be solved.

EgunMogaji:
I hold both Gazzuzz and Erico2K2 in high regards.

I wish that they wouldn't be recommending used tires just as they should be recommending new dangerous tires from any country.

Motorists can find good new tires and should be guided to do so.

i get you

EgunMogaji:
Why are you doing this?

The same due diligence that goes into ascertaining that a used tire is good is the same you will use on a new tire.

I bought four brand new Firestones in Nigeria last month. Good tires are there, they are not cheap but life is not cheap either.

We can't be doing the same things and expect different results.

they are only saying they will choose a use Tyre over a brand new china Tyre

GAZZUZZ:
Accord with a 1.8liter?

yes o, those UK models are really gas friendly

When next I see him, I'll snap the engine bay for you to see

GAZZUZZ:
there are no strict emission laws there, so car manufacturers can get away with a lot of crappy cheap designs,the vehicle might have a production date of 1998, but still not have an OBDII port

this is a better explanation. Cos I was marveled when I searched and didn't see. I still feel it might have been yanked off by our electrician. The engine is a 1.8l vtec. It looks more like a civic engine

GAZZUZZ:
you were looking in the wrong place

It is originally on the right as a converted car!! Check under glove box it would have been dangling somewhere there

his was imported from dubai and so wasn't converted. I even had to resort to YouTube to locate the port. I checked where YouTube said it will be but couldn't find it still

Another thing with the car was I also looked for the O2 sensor but couldn't find it. That car is weird

peejay4vision:
I took it for a scan but was told there's no port for the scan to NE plugged.

accord 98 comes with an obdII port

GAZZUZZ:
There are 2ways of fixing this problem. 1. Scan and it points you in the tight direction, or Go old Sch wich means take down every solenoid on the gear box and test. Your vehicle is a 98 accord by your description, it will have a port, even if it has been chopped off, another port can be installed.

I remember looking for the obdII port in my friends 99 accord UK. I no see. I later told him maybe his has been chopped off

Please what is the name our locals call a defouler. I've asked around, they don't seem to know what I mean


Gazzuzz, luvinhubby, adanny01

luvinhubby:
Option A - $15 X 380 = N5,700(minus shipping cost)

Option B - A decent fairly used in Nigeria is N2,000


Option B is my advice

true talk. Also in the same dilemma

erico2k2:
ahahaa No way unless U buy high grade

una thank you o. This is an eye opener

GAZZUZZ:
Team Toks any day!!

What is a toks tyre? It is a used tyre that was removed from a Foreign used vehicle. (In better shape than one removed from a nigerian used vehicle )


1. DO not buy a winter branded Toks tyre

2. Ensure age of toks tyre is less than 4years

3. Do not over gauge tyre (35psi max!)

4. Do not drive at speeds Exceeding 200KM/HR

5. Buy Trusted brands like michelin and dunlop

Toks tyres will not fail if you Follow these guidelines.

and I've always been having the belief that a new China Tyre was better than a toks. Thanks oga

Hi my people,


I've been using Milemaster 5w-30 motor oil for my corolla 05, now I can't seem to find the Milemaster brand. Can I use costal 5w-30 oil?


CC: gazzuzz, kingreign

See manbebe o

Absu guys will relate

NB : it's the same guy that made his own version of Paul of Psquare jacuzzi photo

thecenturion:
The switch cost 1k

thank you

thecenturion:
Good morning Chief.

Good news and bad news.

The good news is I got a rewire to check out the gear and found out that the 3rd clutch transmission fluid pressure switch was bad. So the car drives fine now.

The bad news is that push when I'm slowing down and the gear is changing from 2 to 1 is still there
No blinking D lights, just that.

Any advice will do

Thanks

How much did you change that for?

GAZZUZZ:
Timing belt are always enclosed.

They are replaced on an interval basis. E.G 70,000km or 4years which ever comes first.

When purchasing a car, if you do not know the last time your timing belt was replaced, please Replace and have you own records.

I didn't learn this on-time, had my timing cut on Monday this week

GAZZUZZ:
there lies the problem. Check that the harness is connected.

If connected replace pressure switch

harness is connected. Does this 3rd gear pressure switch affect all the gears?
