bencash:If the inverter cooling system is ok, i.e inverter cooling radiator, if it's working properly.check it also for punctures. Else check the ABS actuator (brake system) I really have not experienced this before, i hope this helps you sort the problem out. http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:WfvZMas-xCAJ:techno-fandom.org/~hobbit/cars/cours-section6.pdf+what+is+vsc+system&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ng |

Re: INspired man,Siena And Other Potential Mec. I Need Info On Camry Hydrid 08 by Igwe9(m): 7:46pm On Jun 20, 2009 |
I'm in Abuja , let inspired man and co. link you up with good mech engrs in Lagos. My own workshop isn't for automobile repairs bro. I only talked from engineering point of view. Systematic approaches work for me. There's never a smoke without a fire The least expected could turn out to be the cause of the most recurrent. Sure to update us when it's solved. i wish you luck brother. |

Bencash, Expecting Your appointment Like we Discussed, The Issue with Your Car might not have to be with the Hybrid system, The VSC Displayed means ( Vehicle Stability Control System ) may be Faulty and May have nothing to do with your Hybrid System Lets this far the Checks can take Us. |

Do not let anyone pull a screwdriver on that car unless they pull the OBD first. I guess manufacturer waranty does not apply to Nigeria because all factory dealerships are mandated to work on your car for free within that period. Even if you did not buy form them. Contact Toyota customer service (email) and see what they say. The question is did anyone touch the car before this started, and why did they touch it. |
Re: INspired man,Siena And Other Potential Mec. I Need Info On Camry Hydrid 08 by inspiredm(m): 8:16pm On Jun 23, 2009 |
Bencash, Ive seen the Hybrid Camry today, I Test Drove It And saw the Malfunctions, The Hybrid System has been tampered with, The radaitor was even fixed On arrival in Nigeria, The Hose that leads to the Hybrid Battery Is torn and the Air Fullometre Compartment is Displaced We'll need to run an On Board Diagnostics ( OBD ) Scan On the Car to Detect All Possible Faults. The Car Drives & Runs Well, and everything works as it Should, The Traffic Situation Didnt Permit Me to Rev the Speed Upto 100km/h To detect the VSC Fault you complained about but I guess that has to do with the Vehicle Stability Control. We'll Possibly Take the Car For OBD Checks to detect all Possible Faults, If Time Permits me Tomorrow We'll sort that out, If Not I can Re direct your Guys to the German Technician Along Allen Avenue, That can fixt it. Good Luck. |

Oh boy! Spoke too soon erase the part about waranty, cos ya'll just voided it . Did your expert work on the vehicle or did you buy it like that? Sometimes you just need to look insede the engine compartment to see something is off, you battery might not be getting cooled down when it heats up, thermostat might be off, with low coolant; basically the works. Good luck, pay attention to everything, and replace all damaged parts. |
Re: INspired man,Siena And Other Potential Mec. I Need Info On Camry Hydrid 08 by bencash: 4:18pm On Jun 29, 2009 |

@sultaan, The warranty on all US cars are void once they leave the shores of America in working condition. The factory warranty only covers the vehicle when operated within the shores of the US (climatic conditions and availability of genuine parts with servicing done by licensed dealers). @ poster, I would advise you to go with inspired but make sure you check your OBD error codes on at least 2 diagnostic systems. (Check, clear and check again to see if the codes come up again). When you have the codes, you can easily get the problem with an easy Google search. Trust me, it saved my Volvo. DO NOT RELY 100% ON OUR LOCAL TECHNICIANS!!!! |
Re: INspired man,Siena And Other Potential Mec. I Need Info On Camry Hydrid 08 by bencash: 11:49pm On Jun 29, 2009 |
sojioguns: thanks, is there any where u know i can get the OBD done? |
Re: INspired man,Siena And Other Potential Mec. I Need Info On Camry Hydrid 08 by sojioguns(m): 4:15am On Jun 30, 2009 |
Nowadays, a lot of workshops have the mobile OBD scanners. There is this place on Oba Akran (Bomaco) ,where they do computerised wheel balancing and alignment. Theirs is N10,000. There is another place on the express (Once you turn into the express from 7up, the first Conoil filling station on your right) Theirs is N5,000. Just make sure the scanner is OBDII compatible. On the other hand, with the kind of car you have, you can purchase one off the net for about $250. |
