Car TalkRe: Lexus RX 350 Jerking by tunene(op): 9:26pm On Nov 26, 2018
So guys, when I said first mechanic. I meant the first mechanic I met in this town.
We are looking at the whole combustion system again. Starting eith easy things like spark plug, and several other things.
The biggest gain has come from
Servicing the injectors, replace spark plugs and chain of accelerator pedal cos the pedal too was ceasing.

However, not yet Uhuru. However, jerking has reduced. I will come back and report progress.

Meanwhile, check engine light is off for about 2 weeks now and not coming on again. I lost my old codes, so no codes to check.

Thank you for all the contribution.

Thank you guys.
I am back to the first mechanic I knew in this town who also feels it has nothing to do with the gear box. He scheduled a live scan with his friend and auto electrician. By the way, we have checked fuel pump, filters, oxygen sensors and catalytic converters. I imagine, this might just be something tiny lying somewhere and laughing.
I will update the house. I hope we are able to solve this problem some time soon.
Car TalkRe: Suv Fit For A Waterlogged Area.... by tunene: 8:29pm On Nov 22, 2018
saintjoel:
Hello car gurus, a client of mine stays in the area shown below.... A waterlogged area and he needs a SUV fit for the area...

The options are a 2015 Chevy Tahoe or 2010 Lexus GX460 but he is looking at other options..

We are looking for a rugged yet classy SUV, fuel efficient and able to face anything thrown it's way..

Car gurus.... Over to you.....
No SUV is designed for this kind of water or "swamp".
What you need is an hovercraft or swamp biggie with pontoon and tracks or any of the ones on Google search for "swamp buggie".

OP.. Post the fault codes from the scan here. It will help a lot for folks that might want to help.
However, I do not understand the relationship between jerking and changing valve body. Do not let people complicate the problem.
Toyota is not that complex to solve its problem. Most times jerking in Toyota engines have to do with Ignition coils, Spark plugs. Is there a Check VSC message on your dashboard?
Did your scan indicate any form of misfire which I want to believe that it did.
You might want to rescan the car again and post the codes here. Pls do not go ahead with messing with the gear box just yet
No check VSC message.
I will look for where I wrote the earlier codes and publish here cos at the moment the check engine light is off and has not come on for the past 1 week plus.

Kazeems are blessed.
Lol. Well, some people with car repair shops (Engr this and that) are not better than Kazeems. By their tools and what they say, you shall know them.

CityNGR:
Have you even scanned that car?
Yes the car has been scanned.
And several P codes point to the oxygen sensors of different banks. Those have been checked and replacement used with no headway.

For the past 1 week, the check engine light has not come on again. Yet, the several jerks are still present.

Hi experienced such last year,
But not on your type of car,
Try changing the valve body, located within the gear or gear brainbox
Thank you.
The second electrician said he got a gear valve body from Onitsha but he is not sure it is the actual one. He says I might consider buying gear valve body from Amazon but I fear that it might not solve the problem.

May be, I should look around for another gear valve body that might work. Hopefully, they will allow me pay them testing money.
Thanks again.

Guys,

I have this serious issues with my RX 350 2010.
It jerks several times when I try to accelerate.
First, we scaned and it brought codes related to oxygen sensors. We checked and even replaced with another.

Then we moved to throttle body and It's equivalent accelerator pedal. Thankfully, we only paid for testing not for parts.

Then auto electrician took over claiming that hence it was accidented in the past, some wires could be responsible. After 8 weeks, still no way.
Later, they ordered ECU from Lagos and tested. Still, no way. Thankfully, we could return the ECU and get some cash back.

Now, today back to mechanic, bought new fuel filter, pump and plugs. He also serviced the injector.
I feel it reduced by its still jerks especially when one tries to accelerate the car.

I have read different things online and I need other solutions at the moment. Do you have experience with this car or similar stories with Lexus or Toyota. What is the solution please.

AutosMan Diesel Commander Tipper For Sale by tunene(op): 6:02pm On Jun 23, 2017
I have a Nigeria used Man Diesel Commander for sale. Its 6 tyres but with extended bucket which can load up to 15tonnes. The bucket is aluminum which means its long lasting and would hardly corrode or rust.
The truck is presently after Abijo in Lekki.
It is in perfect condition and with two brand new front tyres, and three at the back bought some months ago, one is pretty old about 1-2yrs. Truck is in perfect condition, we just replaced brake and tipping hydraulic pump recently.

The truck tips in 3 direction - back and two sides and it is very rugged.

Price is 2.8m (I won't say its give away but its cheap).

I just wanted to sell and move on from the sand business as I do not have time to monitor the people working for me.

If you are interested, whatz app me on 08069352225. You can also use whatz app call to communicate.

Please this is for serious people only.

Thank you and God bless.

PoliticsIs The South-south Really A Tiny Enclave Of A Few People by tunene(op): 9:12am On Jul 25, 2013
I do not believe this came from a Prof, Prof. Ango Abdullahi "The South-south is a tiny enclave of a few people, perhaps not bigger than Kaduna State”

The full statement from Vanguard: "“The fact that we don’t come out in shouting match and in abusive language and so on sometimes gives the wrong impression that we do not have deep-rooted concern for ourselves about 2015. This is not true. The South-south is a tiny enclave of a few people, perhaps not bigger than Kaduna State”, Prof. Ango Abdullahi, a former vice chancellor of Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria (ABU) and the NEF leader, told journalists"
HealthRe: Using Tissue Or Water After Toilet, Which Is More Hygienic? by tunene: 2:13pm On Aug 14, 2012
I prefer tissue, water, then tissue again. The first tissue makes sure it doesn't stain my hand, the water cleans the place properly, and then tissue again to dry the water from the place to avoid a wet underwear. Then wash my hands and leave.

This is unlike some foolish government that would tell you they cannot work on a road or complete a project because some elders or boys in the community stopped them from work. Who is area boy when government is ready to work. BRF, carry go.
