Good morning House... Pls there is something I need clarity on... I noticed that both the upstream and downstream O2 sensors on my Honda Odyssey 2001 model are disconnected, and yet the Check-engine light is NOT on. The vehicle runs smoothly, no issues... But from my observation it seems the fuel consumption is a bit higher than normal. I need suggestions on what steps I need to take if necessary. Thank you. |

WycliffeSMB: Does check engine light come on when you start the car or when ignition is on? That momentary flash of the cluster as the ECU performs self-test? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by WycliffeSMB(m): 11:45am On Sep 12, 2022 |
MedicH: NO. The light has never come on |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by MedicH: 2:01pm On Sep 12, 2022 |
WycliffeSMB: the bulb is dead or somebody have used a black celotape to cover it. Scan your car for codes then inspect your instrument cluster. It is almost impossible for 02 sensors to be disconnected and their wont be check engine light unless the ECU is bad. Once the upstream sensors are disconnected, ur fuel consumption is as high as plus 40% talking from experience. |

Oga Gazzuzz, Abeg help me. I have been battling with engine misfire and random misfire since the beginning of the year and no solution still. It is a Camry 2007 3.5L 2GR-FE engine. I have changed all the spark plugs. The car was fine for few months. After some time the car was vibrating and hesitating during acceleration. I got P0301 after scanning it. I changed Ignition Coil on cylinder 1 about 3weeks ago. As I was driving home today, the car started hesitating whenever I try to accelerate and the check engine light came up and started blinking. I got P0305 after scanning it when I got home. Below are the data readings I also got from the VIEW FREEZE FRAME. LOAD_PCT(%) = 85.5, ETC (F) = 189, SHRTFT1(%) = -3.9, LONGFT1(%) = 3.9, SHRTFT2(%) = 0.0, LONGFT2(%) = 0.0, RPM(/min) = 2340, VSS(mph) = 40, SPARKADV(*) = 17, IAT(F) = 104, MAF(lb/min) = 6.666, TP(%) = 31.0, O2B1S2(V) = 0.700, SHRTFTB1S2(%) = 99.2, O2B3S2(V) = 0.640, SHRTFTB3S2(%)= 99.2, RUNTM(sec) = 360, EQ_RATB1S1 = 0.999, O2B1S1(V) = 3.483, EQ_RATB3S1 = 1.005, O2B3S1(V) = 3.301, EVAP_PCT(%) = 100.0, WARM_UPS = 15, CLR_DIST (mile) = 78, BARO (inHg) = 29.4, EQ_RAT11 = 0.999, O2S11(mA) = 0.113, EQ_RAT31=1.005, O2S31(mA) = 0.000, CATEMP11(F)=1188.14, CATEMP21(F)=1188.14, CATEMP12(F)=936.14,CATEMP22(F)=1188.14,VPWR(V) = 13.164, LOAD_ABS(%) = 61, EQ_RAT= 0.997, TP_R(%)= 13.3, TP_B(%) = 66.3, APP_D(%) = 32.2, APP_E(%) = 48.2, TAC_PCT(%)=30.6 Kindly assist me with what could be the problem.

Good Day House. Today I went to replace my faulty kickstarter. The Rewire guy dipped his hands into the brake fluid compartment to get oil to lubricate the key starter before putting it in. After the replacement I noticed that the check engine light that was always permanently on has disappeared and now the brake light is permanently on. What could have caused this? It's a lexus Rx 330 |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by WycliffeSMB(m): 7:59pm On Sep 12, 2022 |
MedicH:Okay. Can you recommend the one you bought from AliExpress? |

Mrphilia: Are you sure your parking break (A.K.A. Hand brake) is not engaged? If it's not, then it means you are probably running low on brake fluid. Better check it or be ready to deal with the consequences of a failed brake. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by frebor(m): 11:21pm On Sep 12, 2022 |
Mrphilia: If he removed your battery while working, the check engine light is coming back soon. |

Grupo:Good morning can you recommend a Dot 3 Brake fluid type for me to use? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by seanfer(m): 9:16am On Sep 13, 2022 |
Mrphilia: Check the brake oil tank cover, the rewire did not cover it, or the fluid is low |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Mrphilia: 9:59am On Sep 13, 2022 |
seanfer:I just left the mechanic workshop. Everything was checked and a new brake fluid was put. The brake sign is still on the dashboard. The mechanic said maybe the rewire touched the sensor that it's nothing to worry about. |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by calculation(m): 7:53am On Sep 14, 2022 |
ManAdii:NO, don't buy it because you will not be able to withstand its associated problems with V6 as a first time user. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by calculation(m): 7:59am On Sep 14, 2022 |
LandoKingz:Your vehicle problem may not even be that injector nozzle. The part can be test if it is okay or not( very simple to do) . Ensure you do a test before replacement. I believe that it can be source in Ibadan. 1 Like |

There is this dead rattle that started on my car recently and mostly on cold start. However I am beginning to notice it after parking for few hours. It's an annoying knocking sound that lasts just a second or two after engine start and is gone. What could be causing this. And how can I fix it please. It's creeping out. No check engine Car is a Toyota Venza 2010 2gr fe |
