Hello sir, please I want to find out what can be wrong with my Toyota Corolla 2009. I mistakenly overfilled my gas tank about some few weeks ago and since then my check engine sign has been on. What can be wrong? Thank you |

Good day Gurus in the house, special shout out.to Gazuzz, your name reminds me.of.my Dad's car that year "Daewoo Razer" To the fulcrum of my concern; I am practically new to cars, just started driving last year October, my Dad recently entrusted one of his old cars into my hands after it has spent some time in the hands of my sisters I've been gradually working to get it up again (like new) body work and painting has been done but interior and engine still needs serious work. My current issue is the exhaust pipe and the silencer, the pipe has taken lots of hits due to our bouncing castle kinda roads, so, whenever I start the car it makes some funny noise, the panel beater tried to wield the affected part but no reprieve, so he advised that I changed the whole exhaust pipe including the silencer at Owode, that I shouldn't cut it. Please what do you think? Then also, while taking the car from the workshop back home, I noticed my brakes where air empty, almost like the car had no brakes, had to be careful till I got home and have since parked it. How do I know if the brake pads are worn out or the brake engine oil is exhausted Car is a Toyota Solara 1998 model or so Thanks for your anticipated answers, more questions to come in time 1 Like |

Please, Who can help me check, if my fuel pump is still working properly. I heard diagnostic scan can't detect fuel pump problem. My car take like two to three kick_start almost every morning now and jerks occasionally, while driving. I heard there is a gauge/instruments to check, if the fuel pump is still working perfectly but all the mechanic around me do not have that instrument.... Please, who can help? |

ayanjamz:Had a similar case with my Nissan Almera. My mechanic adviced to either clean the pump or buy a new one, but he warned that the new pump is not like the carry-come design. So we settle to clean the pump which was caked with mud/debris. The fuel tank was completely emptied and mop with clean rag. Then all the fuel injector nozzles (if this apply to your engine type) were cleaned and reinstalled. The tank was refilled with petrol and that solved my jecking problems till date. If your fuel pump is bad replace it but take additional preventative measures as necessary. 1 Like |

Gboy19:Use 5w30 if you can't find 5w20. 5w30 offers better engine protection but mpg suffers very marginally. Insignificantly if I may add. Congrats on your mdx. If you ever have any queries, chat me up. 2 Likes |

Top of the day to all car owners and drivers. It is so unfortunate the high cost of maintaining vehicles in Nigeria especially Lagos due to bad roads and quack mechanics who use your car as practicals and trial and error. Most car faults and unnecessary break down are caused as a result of lack of maintenance culture on the part of the drivers in possession of the car. I have a detailed write up to help you understand some steps to take and lists of routine maintenance advised to be carried out on your vehicle periodically before the starting of each day.

Happy Holidays. I have been having a constant rough idle(RPM fluctuates on its own) on my Honda Civic 07 since the throttle body was cleaned. Will changing the throttle body fix this or are there other things I should look out for? |
