Godsown0: Explain the driveability issues you have |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by tunnamaniah(m): 10:46am On May 14, 2022 |
I have an 08 accord with an immobilizer issue; the car will crank but the immobilizer(green) light will flash multiple times and the car will not start. I contacted a locksmith that reprogrammed the keys, but the problem still persisted. It will start intermittently, but most of the time... The light will flash and the car will refuse to start. I need direction, I am in abeokuta, incase you have anyone you can recommend |

GAZZUZZ:Thanks for the reply sir. Anytime i start up my engine and i shift the gear from park to Drive, it will make a shift shock and won’t be able to move especially on a high ground. Sometimes it selects normal but after a minute drive or after applying the brake the shift shock will be heard and my gear won’t shift from 3 |

[img][/img] Good afternoon Gazzuzz, My RX350 has been having issues. Steering has stiff while turning, steering rack has been changed, but the issues still barely exists. The engine also misfires, check engine light is on. So i decided to scan it. I have a small ELM 327 device. This is the result. I looked up the solutions and honestly, i still have some issues. Sir, what do you advice?

Good evening house, please I have an urgent issue that needed urgent attention. I noticed there's an oil leak in my car , I wasn't sure at first but I finally checked underneath the protector today and I noticed the oil is actually leaking Here comes my problem, I took it to my mechanic and explained the issued with my Car, after checking for hours, he wasn't able to find where the leakage is coming from 2. So, he opened the bonnet , and check every part until he said the oil might be leaking from the Turbo side, note, he wasn't sure and he had to call someone to seek their opinion about it. The next thing the person said was my turbo is spoilt, like how ( note , the person diagnosed on phone, like he wasn't present) 3. Note. The car still works fine, just the ony issues is where to check for oil leakage , they're talking as if buying a new turbo engine is beans Please, what can I do .. The car works fine , the speed and everything is okay , just the oil leaking part , that's giving me concern, Please what did you suggest I do @Gazzuzz 1 Like |

Had similar issue on my 2007 civic last year. Started when I had a burnt gasket. After fixing the gasket was when I noticed the temperature gauge was Abit higher than it used to be. Then after driving for an hour and above I noticed the engine gets too hot. The water in radiator starts boiling. It happens that if I don't turnoff the engine and leave the car to cool for atleast an hour, the car would off itself and nothing on Earth will get it to starts again until after 12hrs or more. Infact a fee times iv had to leave the car on the road side till the following day. Different mechanics chop my money tire. Until one told me to replace the Water pump. I bought a tokumbo one for 5K. Na so I fix am everything return to normal oo. Since then I've travelled from Abuja to Kano and back 3times without any issue. Going by my experience, perhaps you might want to check your water pump. juniorrate: 1 Like |
