Hello house, please I need help with a nagging issue.

My Honda CRV 2010 has a P0303 error that has refused to disappear for months. I've switched and replaced the plugs, coil and fuel injector (nozzle). Once I clear the error code, the car returns to normal and fires well for a few days after which the code returns, causing the car to jerk and rough acceleration.

Please what could be the issue so I can resolve it once and for all?

When you swapped the coil, did the code change?

Nope, it didn't.

Greetings to All,

My Toyota Sienna 2004 has a 13pin gearbox issue immediately after I bought it.
Was told the gearbox had to be changed which I paid and was done.
Travelled with it to Delta State and present the car can move forward with fine gear selection but would not select the reverse gear.

What may be the problem? I need to know what the issue is to enable me fix it and return back to Lagos.

Is there a chance that changing the 13pin to 10pin gear will be of any help?

that'll be an electrical problem or an ecu malfunction. A continuity test from the ecu connectors to the ignition coil sockets should be carried out.

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?

Has a continuity test been carried out on the wires from the O2 sensor connector to the ecu?
Your high rpm can be caused by a lot of factors ranging from a vacuum leak to a throttle body malfunction. Scan the car and post all codes here for assistance

Good day to you, please what could be wrong with a Toyota Hilux that makes it not to ever accelerate beyond 80km/hr? It used to accelerate beyond that before, however, the Top Cylinder, Crankshaft, clutch disc and Lease bearing were all recently changed, then after all these repairs, it does not accelerate beyond 80km/hr, even after engaging all the gears up to the 5th gear.
Thanks in advance

You have 2 choices,
1. Have a competent technician redo what was done before,
2. Buy another engine.

Good day all. I use a Honda Accord 2006. 4 Plugs. I recently replaced the Compressor and the Condenser. But I noticed that the AC stalls the engine badly. It got so bad that it refused to pull away from a traffic light until i switched off the AC. What are the possibilities of what might be wrong?

How much did you spend on this please?

It beats me why people come to nairaland to ask for price. Why not go to market and get real price? Why do you think the price he will give you here is more authentic than what you will get in the market? If you don't want to go to market yourself, then stop suspecting your technician of cheating you.

This is hardly the kind of issue we can help you with on nairaland. If someone did work and a problem arose, simply take it back to him to undo what he did. There's no way we will know for sure what he did wrong. Having said that, how was the car behaving before the initial compressor got spoiled? If it was working well with the initial compressor, then you should know what your problem is.

Please house what could be the problem with 2001 V6 highlander.
No leakages but my coolant keeps shorting.
Mechanic said it's leakage and changed and tightened some hose clips.
But it is still the same thing. After driving for about 20km I must top coolant.
Anyone please?

Coolant àbí water? If na coolant and your mech look properly, he go see where ẹ dey leak from. Streaks go dey.

Your car dey "steam"? Gasket ẹ haf go

Ẹ fit be Water pump, radiator cover àbí heater core. Make dem check wella.

It is recommended that you don't exceed 80km anywhere in Nigeria, so you're fine

The role of the ABS is not to make your gear select well or make your brakes effective. Afterall cars produced and driven before the invention of the ABS shifted their gears well braked effectively. Get another ABS, its role is important especially if you travel with your Sienna or you speed occasionally.
