Dana specs or American specs?

Its Dana specs.

Its Dana specs.

Get a competent technician to diagnose it painstakingly, most times, that Dana spec don’t support OBD 2 scans. But my bet is on throttle body.

Plz my Sienna Old Model consumes much fuel, and the technician after checking and ensured everything is in order, he then suggested I should get norsel resistor so that he fixes it in the car. Is it advisable? Does it have long run disadvantage?

My Toyota Corolla S 2008 model, always makes this "krrrr" sound at early morning starting and when starting after it has been parked for many hours. Also, most of the time, it doesn't start on one kick in the morning and when park for many hours. I was told to change the camshaft intake CVT (Sprocket), but I've not done it yet (still searching for an expert) because I'm afraid Kazeem may end up Kazeemaling the car for me.

I bought it around October 2019 and I've only changed front shocks, belt tensioner and serpentine belt as the engine has never been worked upon.

These days, with my AC on, when accelerating e.g after a speed bump, i always hear this "shrrrr" sound. I don't know what's wrong again.
This is the result of my scanning.
Please, help a brother.

You need a competent technician to diagnose that car properly and then fix it. If you’re in Abuja, feel free to contact me if it’s okay by you.

Good afternoon @kingreign and other automobile gurus, i was able to scan the car and the result obtained is P0717.
Also, traction control sign appeared on the dashboard. How can this be cleared?

How can i go about this pls. I'm really spending much on fuel and this is draining me financially.

Thank you.

Your transmission turbine (input) speed sensor is located on your transmission just under the air cleaner box. Have it replaced (I’m inferring from your scan result).

Can i go ahead and replace the damaged catalytic converter so as to reduce the fuel consumption?

I never read that you scanned your car and it had a catalytic converter issue. Or what’s going on?

I bought a 2018 Kia Rio access bank type but the block engine is damaged, because the car is relatively new, my mechanic can't find a block engine to buy alone, the problem is that the full engine is up to 850K. Now I'm considering selling the car and going for an older model, but mehn, driving a new car comes with a lot of freedom from stress cause nothing concern you and any mechanic

@Kingreign, this was where it all started Sir.

salbis:
Good afternoon @Kingreign, please i used about 45 litres of petroleum for a journey of about 394 kilometer, without AC. The car is Toyota Avensis 2010 automatic. With the same litres of petrol i cover about 500 kilometers on Honda Accord 2000 model manual without AC too.

Is my Toyota over consuming fuel? The catalytic converter on the Avensis was broken and even blocked the exhaust which my panel beater had to remove. Should i go ahead and replace the catalytic converter to save money on fuel? Or is the fuel consumption normal?

Thank you.

salbis:
@Kingreign, this was where it all started Sir.

As long as the cats have been removed, it won’t affect fuel efficiency.

So, the fuel consumption is normal?

salbis:
So, the fuel consumption is normal?

I never said so pls. By the way, run a live scan on the following:
1. your short term fuel trim,
2. your long term fuel trims,
3. your AF sensor Voltage activity, and
4. your Mass Air Flow sensor reading.
Post screen shots let us observe.

Any wrongly installed or failed suspension components may produce weird noise especially when going over rough terrain. Have a competent technician locate the cause of the weird noise.

For tail gate and central lock, have your electrician abs panelbeater check them.
For the System too rich have your air intake, Upstream O2 sensors etc checked

Good evening all, I change my civic 06 shocks and shaft recently but suddenly the car enters limp
/emergency mode. Scanned the car, it says I should service the gear and change the shaft cup but unfortunately I was unable to get the exact code from the guy who scanned the car

Get someone else to scan it and then post codes.

None for now. Apologies

Your mechanic should replace plugs and clean the injectors but most importantly, You should replace mechanic if you must tell him what to do to fix a misfire sir.

Can anybody recommend a good mechanic that can fix the issue and stays around Yaba, Lagos.


Although the car symptoms isn’t showing again even when I scan it but I can notice it from my mpg, it’s consuming more fuel than usual

I drive a 2008 Toyota Corolla and I noticed the rpm doesn't go above 3, what could be the problem and I hope it wont affect my gear.
