kingreign: A brake is binding when one or more calipers do not fully release ‘its grip’ off its wheels. How to know if your brake is binding is to either take the car to a slope and put her on neutral and allow her roll due to gravity or to jack up the car disable the emergency brake or put the car in neutral and roll each wheel by hand to detect which is free and which has resistance.
If your kazeem doesn’t know how to check for binding brake, he has no business touching your car. Which car is this pls? Acura tsx 2008 model |

kingreign: Scan and post codes here. Also ensure your brakes aren’t binding Wanna ask a question please. How does one know his break is binding? Sometime two months ago, I was on 3rd mainland when I saw my car give me a prompt 'check break system'. Since then I have changed break pads and yet that message comes up. And my fuel consumption is up. How does one explain to kazeems to check for binding breaks? |

Good day bro. I drive an acura tsx 2008 model. I have this check engine light on. I have scanned with my Bluetooth scanner but it tells me no OBD fault found. I have an increased fuel consumption. I proceeded to do a smog check and I am seeing a pending code there but it has refused to show me the pending code. I want to share the result of the smog check. I pray you and other technicians in the house can tell me how to go about tackling it from there. @autoelectng, please come in too.

chrisatah94: Good morning @all
Please I got a toks Honda Civic 09 barely 2months... Being a newbie & since it's a personal ride for just everyday simple runs like to & fro for work, shopping when needs be etc..I planned to be using the recommended engine oil (which I tried to know earlier but didn't get info). So my friend recommended I bought mobil 20w-50. But I just confirmed the recommended oil for the civic is 5w-20. My question now is 1. Will it be wise to flush out the old and put in new 5w (giving the popular opinion that one should ensure to continue using same type of oil you started with to prevent quick damage of your engine)
2. The car has a ridiculously low ground clearance and it hits the ground frequently when I navigate around undulating terrain. Even the bottom left of the front bumper is showing crack already due to the impact of hitting the ground. Please will you recommend I go to lift the car or probably change to bigger tyres/rims?
3. Since day one of buying the car, it shows this spanner sign on the dashboard and doesn't show anything on that milage display area. (Meanwhile know immediately we bought it we change all the necessary oil and transmission fluid). Please is that something I should worry about, what are the implications...also how do I get that fixed
4. I'm in Abuja please...if you recommend I visit a car fixing shop... Please if possible kindly recommend me someone that is good with Honda
Thanks in anticipation of your response I will only comment on the spanner issue. It means the car is due for servicing. When you change your oil, you are supposed to reset the oil life. When you reset it, the spanner will be gone. But since you didn't do that, just continue using it and meanwhile go through ur car manual or check videos online on how to reset the oil life of your car. When you now do another servicing, reset it. |

Unruly7: They said I need to get a new gearbox
I just have to do that
#130k Did you try scanning that car? Don't just rush to change gear. Learn to scan your car before u start throwing money around. I bought my car april this year. I changed all fluid except gear fluid. All was good till on july 10 my D started blinking when driving. I called my mechanic and he asked me to drive carefully home. Next day, I went to his office. He checked it and said the oil was due for change. We bought honda Dw-1 and changed it and I took it out for a drive and the D started blinking again. I took it back and he loosed one part and cleaned it very well with carb cleaner. Said water touched those parts. Seems it is called a gear switch or so. That was when it rained very well earlier this year and many parts of lagos was flooded and i was ignorantly swimming through water as if my car was a submarine. After cleaning it, we took it for a drive. then scanned and saw an error code and he cleared the error code. Till today sept 28th, My D has not blinked again and my gear selects good and fine. I also learnt to avoid swimming through water because honda gears are down according to him and water is not good for it. I even have my own portable Bluetooth scanner now. So easy. Scan your car first. |

He should be prosecute on bases of Certificate forgery, gross public misleading and false pretence among others
Shalom. How do you feel being used as an instrument to spread false news? Is it that you don't care or your soul and everything about you, even your integrity can be paid to become compromised? The truth stares you in the face but u deliberately look away while churning out lies upon lies for people who don't even give a hoot about your existence. You are just a vuvuzela to tell lies for them and at the end they will discard you to the rubbish where you and your ilks belong. |

I will suspect your plugs and ignition coils. Seems your car is misfiring. Buy a portable scanner. With that you can pinpoint some of these issues. Had same issues sometime ago and my scanner narrowed it to my coils. Check engine light was blinking and car was moving roughly. Scanned it and changed the coil and everything became normal. So scan your car before you do anything on it. |
