DdenslordD: Thanks boss. Is lexus es350 2008 version. Got it around may I don't even know how much it will cost to work on it. Who can recommend any trustworthy and legit mechanic in Lagos mainland please |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by amordi: 6:17pm On Feb 21, 2021 |
DdenslordD:it has been resolved. A small pan close to the exhaust system was behind the drama. At higher speeds, the exhaust tends to vibrate thereby hitting the body/pan underneath causing the unusual noise. 2 Likes |

HeavenlyBang: Yeah, probably. I have a vehicle on the sea coming into the country and I'll be putting up the catalytic converter for sale on arrival. Will engage the Ogba man for a swap with a spacer. Hopefully, he'll price it right ![]() |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by DdenslordD: 11:25pm On Feb 21, 2021 |
rationalmind:Removing the catalyst from your car and putting spacers is a very wrong move. Firstly when you mean spacers do you mean spacers for the oxygen sensors of just a spacer pipe to replace the catalyst. Removing the catalyst is directly related to excessive fuel.consuption, engine noise, loss of power, engine overheating amongst others. Remember car manufacturers are not stupid to include them in cars so my brother why remove them. If you need a better explanation about why you must ise catalysts please ask me for explanation 3 Likes |

DdenslordD: Story. I have removed it in one of my vehicles. Fuel economy has improved, gained 1mpg. Engine is not overheating and the vehicle is not experiencing any loss of power. The only thing I agree with is a louder exhaust note but who cares? I even prefer the new exhaust note especially on startup 2 Likes 2 Shares |

My Honda accord 2006 steering vibrates when I press the brake while driving at speed above 100km/hr. I changed the brake pads one month ago. Please help. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by DdenslordD: 2:59pm On Feb 22, 2021 |
rationalmind:The mistake we make is we feel the mpg youbsee on your dash is the fuel.consumption but youre wrong thst number is a calculated cumulative thats why when you fill your tank it resets. Sir the onlybreason why youbsaw on improved 1mpg is because u passed through less traffik rather than more traffik. As it states mpg amount moved per amount of fuel burnt means if ure in traffik that number reduces to 0 and increases on highway so lets be onpoint. Its also your choice if you decide to adhere its your car so good luck 1 Like 1 Share |

vincentjk:Because of their very high importance they are important and most of us like tonlisten to mechanics who never went to school than the books. Yes catalytic converters are called catalysts they react with knock gases from engine to emit CO if oxygen is detected by the oxygen sensors it tells the ECU to add more fuel to burn the proportion of oxygen detected so they are very important 1 Like |
