Does check engine light come on when you start the car or when ignition is on? That momentary flash of the cluster as the ECU performs self-test?

kingreign:


The question here should be, what’s your maintenance and oil change history?

Conner44:


Both are good. One is full synthetic and the other is a synthetic blend.

Choose the one that won’t affect your pocket

KelvinCoaster:

I can not be absolutely wrong.

You can not restore glass to it's original state after wear and tear.
Chemistry 121.

KelvinCoaster:

Don't let any body deceive you!

There is no magic that can bring the headlight back to almost brand new.

You can DIY...Make sure there are no debris of sand inside the headlight,then use a new razor blade to scrape out the outer dirty layers then get a pot spunch and do a thorough outward washing with water and detergent.

That's it!!!

WycliffeSMB:

Okay.
My Mechanic will check to know the exact one I need, then I'd revert back to you.

My AC condenser is bad too. Let me know if you have it and also compressor including the prices respectively.

Thank you.

Originakalokalo:


Okay.

Kindly give an update on this whenever you sort it out.

Originakalokalo:


Have you changed the engine mount?

Did it stop the vibrations?

luvinhubby:

Front - 8,000
Back - 10,000
Side - 6,000

Conner44:


To be sincere I don’t really know. But I’d budget N9k for the front and back engine mounts each, N7k for the side engine mount and N5k for each of the 3 gearbox mounts to be safe. Remember that not all might be bad if you’re lucky

Conner44:


Okay. Then your problem is your engine mounts. One or more of them are bad. Try to take the vehicle to a mechanic to check and replace the spoiled ones and the vibrations will disappear

Conner44:


Doesn’t your gear have a D ? Why skip it and use the D4 in the first place?

WycliffeSMB:
Good evening House!

Whenever I start my car and put the gear on D4, it begins to vibrate/shake...but once I press the throttle and begin to accelerate the vibration stops.

It doesn't vibrate when on Park or Neutral.

The car is a Honda Odyssey 2001 model.


Pls what could be the cause of this issue?

Conner44:


An easy way to check your mpg is by first taking a jerrycan (like your old engine oil can) and going to a petrol station to buy 4 liters of fuel.

Put the jerrycan in your boot.

Then take your vehicle for a drive and keep going until the orange reserve light on your fuel guage lights up.

Once the reserve light has lit up immediately find a place to park your vehicle and take the fuel you bought earlier and pour it into your tank

Go back into your vehicle and before driving off first take a picture of your odometer with your phone (or simply reset your trip counter A or B)

Once you’ve noted the figures on your odometer then you can go ahead and start driving your vehicle. Drive it until the orange fuel gauge reserve light comes on again

Immediately the reserve light comes on find a place to park and take another picture of your odometer (or the trip computer if you reseted it before) and note the mileage/distance you have driven with the 4 liters you poured into the tank earlier.

Once you have noted down both the before and after mileage figures of your vehicle using the 4 liters of petrol you can then go ahead to calculate your fuel consumption by ;

subtracting the BEFORE mileage from the AFTER mileage and dividing your answer by 4 which will be equal to your vehicles fuel consumption by kilometers/miles per liter

If the calculation is confusing to you then just do the experiment and take the pictures with your phone and post it here so we can help you calculate it.

Remember that the pictures to take are your odometer readings immediately your reserve light comes on before you poured in the fuel from your jerrycan and the odometer reading after the fuel light comes on again immediately you exhausted the fuel you poured into the tank.

the normal consumption rate for your 2001 Honda Odyssey is 7kms/L from the factory
This is very Helpful.

Thanks alot!

Conner44:


Yes you can change the bearings without changing the hub.

Conner44:


No it’s not a matter of reserve. That’s why I initially inquired as to the method he used in determining his tank was empty before adding the 2 liters he bought from the black market.

The usual fuel consumption of this vehicle is 9kms per Liter average so since he topped up 2 liters and drove strictly on the highway without any hold up or traffic he would have a better mileage hence the 3 extra kms that EazyMoh posted about , his vehicle has normal highway mileage.

The issue is his vehicle has no functional O2 sensors, this will make his city (stop and go) mileage very bad unless he does something about it. On a highway with steady moderately open throttle position (via the sensor) seen by his brainbox the cars computer will use preset values to administer fuel and air but when he’s in a city traffic with fluctuations in his throttle position sensor input his brainbox will not be able to compute the right mixture of fuel thereby making his vehicle run super rich.

Mention luvinhubby here, he sells it.
