Car TalkRe: A Cheap Headlamp Lens Cleaning DIY by Whynow(m): 9:29pm On Oct 04, 2018
Factory Headlamps are covered with a layer of UV protective coatings.
Trust me it will fade or deteriorate in no time due to our polluted air and abundant sunlight.
Except you apply a UV clear coat to it.

Please can anyone describe how to access the EGR on a 2007 lexus rx350
I have a feeling it requires some cleaning ..carbon build up, having performed other basic maintenance work.

Thank you

Hi Raymond,
When you say "cost", do you mean cost of erecting skeleton or total cost of the building including finishing?
Are you in Lagos?

From Torque to Techstream...quite a leap of faith...why did you make that investment? Did my posts help? From your previous posts, you are not into the service divide of automotive business...hence the question...if you do not mind sharing?

300k w/o the Auxillary.
WS 4litres ×2 . For drain and fill. 25,000 ie 12,500 each
Labour 25k
Apparently after installing new tranny, it was sluggish on gear 1 and jerks at 3. Then the expert said it's important he checks my ECU with an advanced scanner . He did and it gave errors. Hmmmm.

All this while we were still at Ladipo 8pm, had to leave office to meet them.

My expert brought another ECU reprogrammed and went for test drive and voila .....car runs like new. Faster out of the block. Ferrari...
Unlike before that it was full of hesitation and hard acceleration.
Coughed out another 50k for ECU.
He said my ECU may have damaged the tranny or vice versa. Well thank God for my Money market funds at Stanbic. This saved me
Anyway it's a learning curve.
Like I said i don't like patchy work.. that why I had to ensure I got an expert.
Who knows maybe my tranny could have worked if I changed ECU, but I highly doubt that..... and take no chances.
It's better to get it right first time, because the cost of remediation is more.
Thank you all.....Ehen my old tranny is still here in case una need am cool

Car TalkRe: P0746 Lexus Help by Whynow(op): 1:25pm On Mar 21, 2018
Just bought a transmission from a reliable dealer at ladipo and currently being installed by his tranny expert.
I don't like problems , would rather bite the bullet to replace.
Let me know if anyone is interested in my old one.

Thanks for all your advise.

Standard drain and fill procedure
Car TalkRe: P0746 Lexus Help by Whynow(op): 9:32pm On Mar 19, 2018
Last month...Tranny oil change with WS and transmission filter change ...
Reason for this was to fix the slight hesitation while accelerating .
Old Filter was dirty and tranny fluid was light. No metal scrapping found in oil
Car TalkP0746 Lexus Help by Whynow(op): 9:00pm On Mar 19, 2018
My car 07 RX350 just stalled and refused to accelerate on 3rd mainland bridge.
Managed drive it to the section of the bridge where the Lagos Rescue guys park their bikes.
Car would raise and refuse to accelerate. I watch the speedometer go up and falls back to zero.
Move gear to reverse and heard a thump sound, back to drive and same.....
Never ever heard such sound in my transmission.

Finally I had to get it move at minimal speed with high rpm to my mechanics garage.
Fluid was check and was okay. Then scanned with the attached result.
Prior to this issue, no acceleration problems but
Only slight hesitation.

I need expert advise and directions to go

theo07:
yes sir
Just to clarify the Nigerian used phrase to bros856.
Not all Nigerians abuse their cars.
I drive an RX350 2007 , 2yrs now. But when you see it you will think it was bought yesterday.
Infact I put it up for sale for 3.5m on Jiji.
Many people that have inspected had their jaw dropped because it's as clean as a tokumbo.
I am not boasting , it's about the user.

Sorry OP. But trying to make a point to Bros856

Mayor pls can you suggest a shop to diagnose issues
mayor2013:
Front and rear. Check your propella
Car TalkRe: Could This Be An Unbalanced Driveshaft Issue? by Whynow(op): 1:21am On Dec 19, 2017
Ok is there a particular way to check if flex disc is installed accurately?

I am no longer enjoying my car.



DaimlerBen:
Check your engine & transmission mounts and subframe.
Also check your flex disc & driveshaft centre support bearing.
If the flex disc has been changed a couple of times & still gives problems, the mechanic may be installing it the wrong way around.

Where do u feel the vibration/sensation from . Front or rear
It varies on both front and rear. But becomes worse with load. ie with people.

I had my mechanic drive me from work on Friday . A colleague sat in front while I sat behind , and could definately feel the wooble or shake.
