Good afternoon Sirs.
I scanned my car, a Honda CRV 2008 with today and got the following codes:
P2184
P0135
P0141
P0533
P0113
P0010
I want to know in what order of severity and expenses should i start to fix them.

Thanks!

135 and 141 are upstream and downstream O2 sensors. Your car will be drinking fuel if both are faulty. How is your fuel consumption?

When I scan my check engine light which always comes up in a matter of days after clearing the previous, I am always told that it is a clucked catalystic converter.
Pls if this is the culprit, how can I deal with this and what is the cost of fixing this cuz I was told by my electrician that is very expensive to fix

Check your fuel status with your scanner. Check whether the car is running in closed loop or open loop. Scan it after driving for a while.

Looks more like it.

The light is around the circle area on the dashboard

Ok I have no idea then. But let other experts like Gazzuzz, Luvinhubby, autologic etc provide you with the answer.
Regards

baba4thegehs:
Here is it

Is this your dashboard?

baba4thegehs:
Here is it

The picture is not too clear but looks like security light to me. If you have the car manual simply check the sign on the dashboard.

Ernesttoby30:
I've not scan it.

Try and buy a scanner on Jumia. With less than 10k you should be able to get one that can scan basic car codes. Secondly it will help you have an idea of the problem before you take it to kazeem.

Good day gurus in the house. Please my Honda civic 07 is really frustrating me with over heating.

I've changed
Radiator cover
One fan
Single cell radiator to NEW double cell radiator


And yet my car water is drying up very quickly causing overheating. No leakage has been seen so far. Please help me. I'm really frustrated. My mechanic keep on working on Guess work. I'm tired

What are the scan results?

baba4thegehs:
Hello friends, I noticed a red light blinking on my Honda accord 07 dashboard, this is entirely different from the anti theft light.
This is the first time I'm seeing such, and if I could recall it happend after my key remote system stopped working for like 2 weeks I had to resort to manually open and lock the car, but I recently changed the batteries on the key and it's working again, but the red light still blinks anytime I lock the car.
Not sure of what this is

Please post the picture of the red light that is blinking because to the best of my knowledge, when the doors are locked the red blinking light in my car is the antitheft light

Jamie1000:
I have done all the necessary check on the engine by a technician. Engine runs great.

Have you done a scan of the car?
Is the D light on the dashboard blinking?

Please I need help.
I was driving home yesterday and stopped to buy something. As I was about to leave, my car refused to start, I noticed the coolant reservoir became overfilled but the temperature gauge was at the middle. I had to wait a while and the car started once. I have a pending P0141 code. What should I be looking to fix? Car is Honda Civic 2007

P0141 means your downstream O2 sensor is bad/faulty. Let your rewire rectify it.

rennylaw:
Thank you for this feedback.

Can you recommend a good Honda technician around Ogba/Ikeja axis?

Contact gazzuzz, his workshop is at Ogba.

emitope:
Like slowly rolling. But not kicking/starting. Was starting prior but not since yesterday.

Infact, it just rolls like once/twice now and just stops.

Check if your horn still sounds the normal way. If not your battery has either run down or is weak.

whyteone:
Thank you for the follow up.I took the car back to the workshop.He changed the relay and the problem persisted.He the rescanned and this time it gave a P1658 error.He spent time working on the fuse box and the wiring around the fuse box and under the dash board by the driver's side.The problem stops when he starts the car.When it's put off and allowed to rest, when started again the problem comes up again. It happened over and over again.He then concluded that the fault is from the brain box.According to him the brain box is not sending current to the relay hence the noise when the gear is engaged and lack of throttle power.What do you think?

What's your location??

ade95:
Please any recommendation on a very good Honda/Acura mechanic … not Kazeems please … is there also a group chat for Acura owners ??

Thanks

What's your location?

mandarin:
Please who have an idea of a good honda mechanic or rewire that can fix the kind of problem stated up here on crv. The person living around Ketu Berger to Mowe axis for ease of reach. Many thanks

Contact Luvinhubby
However he is at oyinbo

Ernesttoby30:
Boss do you have personal Scanning device you use for your car or you go to rewire guys for scanning? If you have personal scanning device, which one would you recommend for me that is cost effective. Thanks

Search for diagnostic car scanner on Jumia. Some use Bluetooth while others are connected via a cable to the obd2 car port. Price varies from 3000 to over 150k. Yes it's a wide range to pick from depending on your pocket.

My Toyota corolla 2005 doesn't consume fuel much, (I bought the car from a professor in University of Ibadan, and the engine has never been open (so the mechanic told me), everything intact, custom papers indicated he imported the car in 2016), but i discovered of recent when a mechanic checked the exhaust, it has no Catalyst. so, my thoughts are 1. should i buy cat and get it welded on the head of the exhaust, or (2) i should tell them to weld pipe i just need advice

Catalytic converter doesn't improve fuel efficiency. It simply converts all the toxic gases produced by the engine to less harmful gases before releasing it into the atmosphere. In this part of the country we don't do emissions test otherwise your Corolla would fail an emissions test. If I were the owner of your Corolla I would keep using it like that since you said it doesn't consume fuel much.

Meklex:
I noticed that my o2 sensor connection was removed by the previous owner and I asked the mechanic to reconnect it, he did and my car started getting hard to accelerate. I removed the 02 sensor connection and everything went back to normal. Should I continue driving the car like that? It's a corolla 2003

Do a scan first.

Eldemmi:
catalyst is not major factor of fuel consumption.

the real culprit are upstream O2 sensor,open loop, engine tune up, airflow sensor

GBAMMMM!!!

Scan the car

My Honda EOD Gear delays for 3-4 seconds when moved from Park to Drive.

I have changed the transmission oil twice but still same issues.

Just been managing it for a while now but I want to have it fixed.

Do I have to change the gearbox.

Is the D light of your car blinking? What brand of ATF did you use to replace replace the transmission fluid?
What error codes did you get after scanning?

How is the fuel consumption after you parked the car for 3 weeks??

Get a different quotation from another ac repairer.

cmoney22222:

Good afternoon house, please I need to it assistance here with My Honda Accord 05.

If I start the engine and put the gear in drive it doesn’t work/select all the time, unless it’s place on reverse then back to drive before it’ll select, last night the drive shift didn’t work at all, then this afternoon it started working when I tried it again

What could be the cause or i should start thinking of gear replacement?

What kind of transmission fluid do you use? What color is the fluid on the transmission dipstick?

ogawisdom:

Kokomo:
I get P0172 at time, when I clear it , it doesnt re-appear till about a month. I notice slight misfire though, P0304 very rare, I think is due to the Rich condition.

I am considering a compression test on all the cylinders, hopefully it is not a case of worn or fauty engine due to rings or gasket.

Will keep the house update,

But if you have any other pointers, please assist

These are the possible causes for the P0304 code:

-Valve adjustment
-Faulty spark plug 4
-Clogged or faulty fuel injector 4
-Faulty ignition coil 4
-Fuel injector 4 harness is open or shorted
-Fuel injector 4 circuit poor electrical connection
-Ignition coil 4 harness is open or shorted
-Ignition coil 4 circuit poor electrical connection
-Insufficient cylinder 4 compression
-Incorrect fuel pressure
-Intake air leak

High Negative Short term and Long term fuel trim All the time, Edakun help me

But because the longterm native fuel trim hasn't crossed -25%, my ECU is yet to set a p0172 code, but my fuel consumption had been bad affected, before I do 34mpg average, now I do roughly 26mpg, same route to work

What error codes do you get when you scan?
