kingreign:


Replace sensor with tokunbo part or OEM brand new. Most new sensors sold in Nigeria are fake low quality parts.

As for your RPM, check if your intake air cleaner is okay, if the intake hose is okay, vacuum lines are okay and if the rug/carpeting isn't in the way of the throttle pedal.

Thank you. I will check them out

High RPM can also cause increase in consumption.
Is your Catalyst intact?
Did you test the old o2 sensor with a multimeter?

Catalyst is not intact. I did a cheap catalyst last year and I guess it has gone bad.

Yes, I test the old O2 sensor. The connector was bad.

Hello everyone,

My Honda Accord 2010 is showing P0135. I replaced the O2 sensor with a brand new O2 sensor, still the code is still showing and my fuel consumption seems worse than before.

Also my RPM is high.

What can I do?

Thank you for your comment. I stay on the Mainland. I guess that is why I should start from.

Please how much is the Hackey permit and inspection fee?

Do I need to change my vehicle registration to commercial?

northbird:


Start with the main apps.. Uber/Bolt.

Don't chase targets.

Work only when there's surge. As a newbie, if you are working on Bolt/Uber without surge, you are just flogging the car with minimal gains. E hailing cpys won't tell you this, they are just going to confuse you with deceptive ads on Facebook .

Go to areas you know and are familiar with.
If you reside on the island. I will advise you take trips only on the island for now.
If you need a list of all the terrible areas. Go and read back on the thread .

Thank you for your response. Much appreciated.

However, do you think I should choose InDrive over Uber? Or I should register on both.

Due to my inexperience, I was thinking that I should go for a platform that helps me estimate the trip fares as I am not knowledgeable about prices that would favour me.

Glithronix:

Since you do 9-5, take Saturday and Sunday for test-running the hustle. These two days would be a perfect run for you as a starter.
All documents required, you have them already.
Just download the indrive and follow the steps in registration, no special document required, only the ones you already have.
To your last question, download indrive and start the registration, whichever one you encounter and don't understand, screenshot and post it here, you would get support.

Much respect, sir.

Good evening everyone.

How was our day?

I am new here and I need your guidance.

I own a Honda Accord 2010 and I want to start doing Uber (only) on Saturdays majorly. I don’t know if I would be able to add Sunday. I have a 9-5 job.

Please share all the possible advice with me as I have mostly been a rider.


What documents would I need? Is there a thread on the registration steps?

Thank you for your help

google map is not correct. Goggle map was telling me 2.7 miles but when i enter the journey my trip meter is 10 miles. Use ur trip meter not google map
Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by XPaul: 11:48pm On Feb 24
I don’t think I am doing 16miles per gallon. It is more.

About 23 litres of fuel barely last me for three days trip to the office and back home. My office and back home is about 39kms (25miles) according to Google maps.

By your statement, 23 litres (6 gallons) should do approximately 4 days to and fro.

Bullfallo:
check your fuel consumption if you have 16 miles per gallon. Just ignore that check engine light. Otherwise you will be wasting money even more than the fuel you were trying to save. When car is old alot of things will not work correctly. I have spent alot pf money worrying about that engine light. If it’s not blinking and car drives fine just relax

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by XPaul: 11:22am On Feb 24
I need help.

Anytime I press brake while driving, the hand brake light comes on. What can be the reason?

Also, my car consumes fuel aggressively. I have changed the O2 sensors but the errors still appears. Who can help with a technician that can assist with O2 sensors and AF (P1157 code)

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by XPaul: 11:09am On Feb 24
I have resolved this issue.

Took it to another mechanic and they did their thing.

They said they changed the switch but I doubt they did that but suspect they did some programming of the switch I changed recently. Or they did change the switch and also did the programming

XPaul:
I am experiencing this issue in my Honda Accord 2010.

I have changed the switch, change gear oil and also checked the wires but my D is still blinking

Please anyone with help.

I have done that severally. I have a scanner, I even went to Ladipo to use a bigger machine to clear the error code after changing the switch.

My gear changer (inside the car) gets hot, I don’t know if this is normal.

Try and clear the error code with a scanner. It might just stop

Omo...... Like 600k oh.

Apparently there is difference between Honda Accord 2010 Euro & USA.

USA gear is like 180k while Euro (mine) is like 550k - 600k

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by XPaul: 8:13pm On Oct 29, 2023
Hi all,

I use Honda Accord 2010 Euro. I have two issues I need assistance with from

1. I recently experienced an A/C issue. I took my car to the carwash and they did a full wash (including the engine). After the wash, my A/C does not get cool/cold like before. It just blows air.

2. I changed my gear on 19 October 2023. My transition is smooth. However, whenever I accelerate quickly and then come to a stop due to traffic or cars ahead slowing down, I experience difficult accelerate back until I change my gear to Reverse (it then jerks) and then change back to Drive (it jerks again). It is barely two weeks that I changed the gear completely and the mechanic said I should give it like two weeks. I have mentioned it to the mechanic that changed the gear but I want other opinion on what could be wrong.

Does anyone have any understanding of what I am experiencing in both situations.
Car Talk / Re: Honda Accord 2003 Gear Issues by XPaul: 7:56pm On Oct 29, 2023
Hi all,

I have an update, I have changed my gear completely.

However, I have a different experience now.

When I accelerate quickly and then come to a stop due to traffic or cars ahead slowing down, I experience difficult accelerate back until I change my gear to Reverse (it then jerks) and then change back to Drive (it jerks again). Does anyone have any understanding of what I am experiencing.

It is barely two weeks that I changed the gear completely and the mechanic said I should give it like two weeks.

XPaul:
I am currently having this issue with my Honda Accord 2010.

It revs to like 3500 - 4000 sometimes. I try to accelerate gently to avoid this issue but it jerks when it is changing gear.

My mechanic said I should change the gear (@NGN 600k) but I dont have that money.

Also, the D (Drive) light blinks.

How can I fix this issue

Technology Market / Re: Help: My Inverter Does Not Last Long As It Use To by XPaul: 5:57pm On Sep 25, 2023
Thank you for your response.

I bought them second hand last year Nov. Seller said they were 4months used as at that time.

Battery chemistry is Tubular. I have attached an image of my battery

Hero2t:
What is your battery chemistry? AGM, Gel or tubular?

How old are the batteries? Did you buy them brand new?

When you have resolved the issue, please never discharge lead acid batteries below 50% of capacity. It shortens the lifespan.

Technology Market / Help: My Inverter Does Not Last Long As It Use To by XPaul: 2:27pm On Sep 25, 2023
Hi all,

I have an inverter system (without solar) made up of the 2 220v batteries and Lumous inverter. I charge it from the power supply and it used to last for more than 24 hours when I use it for my internet stuff and charging laptop.

However, there was a time I didn't have light for 3 days and I exhausted the juice in the battery. After that time, I saw a message on my inverter "Cbl" and since then, my inverter does not last more than 2hours.

Who has experienced this and how can I resolve this.

Ayloaded04:
Im having some trouble with my gear. It stalls and revs as far as 3500 rpm before changing gear. Its a v6 engine which didnt used to be like that before.

I observed that just before it changes gear, it roars as if im revving the car and the change is rough as it comes with a jerk.

I have observed a flashing d light on two occasions while driving but it goes away once i put the vehicle in park, turn off and turn on the engine again.

I recently drained the atf and replaced it with mobil atf but there has been no improvement.

Please help salvage my transmission before it requires a total overhaul

NB:A scan threw up the following codes, some of which have been present for quite sometime..P0113,P2649,P0141,P0161,P0340

Good morning all,

I have an Honda Accord 2010 and I want buy Catalyst. My mechanic quoted two prices, 170k for complete and 100k for another (he would remove the part in mine and take to where the catalyst would be installed).

I want to ask if the pricing is correct. I checked Jiji and I was seeing different lower prices. I am a first time car owner and I am trying to minimise cost. (that is why i am installing the catalyst in the first place because the fuel consumption is high)

Also, my car revving is high, any solution to that?
