kingreign please kindly help out as much as you can; I won't mind calling you on phone or sending whatsapp messages if you permit. Here's the case with my car: 2008 Accord V6, location outside Lagos. Car started misfiring on 2 cylinders (cylinders 2 & 4). Sparks plugs were changed for all cylinders, no change. Ignition coils were replaced, no improvement. Injector nozzles were replaced, fault codes change to cylinders 5 & 6! Nozzles were replaced at 5 & 6, misfire reduced for a few minutes and starts again. At this point, the following symptoms are presented: cylinder misfires, hard starting after car runs for a short distance, strong smell of petrol in the car, howling sound from the silencer (I guess unburnt fuel is getting into the exhaust directly and burning there), knocking sound from the engine after a while (not continuous), very crazy fuel consumption, engine revs itself after 2 minutes of starting up, flashing CEL. Curiously, the only codes that come up are for cylinder misfire! I'm at my wits end! |

symbianDON: Sorry you’re going thru this crazy experience. Let’s start from the basics, what was the last repair job done on the car that caused this to happen or did the car suddenly decide to have automobile madness and rabies on its own? Did the car swim or did an electrical short circuit occurred? |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by symbianDON(m): 8:13am On Oct 05, 2022 |
kingreign:the last repair job was noozle and coil replacement. Car hasn't had any flood issues. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 8:27am On Oct 05, 2022 |
symbianDON:Did you swap coils from 1,2 into 3 &4 to test? If you did and the result stays same, try injectors swap too. Also, do check the Sparkplugs and let me know the result. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by symbianDON(m): 9:02am On Oct 05, 2022 |
kingreign:yes!! I have done all that; swapped/changed coils, replaced all plugs and replaced injectors...yet the result remains same. I forgot to add that timing belt was replaced too some time ago. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 9:41am On Oct 05, 2022 |
symbianDON: Carry out compression tests, and leak test on that car pls. That said, the J35Z2 with VCM are known for their damaging Sparkplugs due to the VCM operation and this may in-turn damage the engines |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by symbianDON(m): 10:34am On Oct 05, 2022 |
kingreign:ok. Thanks so much. I really appreciate this. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 12:12pm On Oct 05, 2022 |
symbianDON: You may also wish to check the spool valve. From some quarters (unverified by me), it can cause misfires.

How can I resolve a Toyota corolla 2009 with P0717 error code - Input/turbine speed sensor. Car sometimes jerks before changing gear from 1 to 2 and 2 to 3. And it doesn't enter gear 4. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by symbianDON(m): 1:36pm On Oct 05, 2022 |
kingreign:ok. I will also check it. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 1:59pm On Oct 05, 2022 |
alaricsaltzman:You need to carry out physical checks on the wiring on the transmission. There are two sensors on top the transmission and it has two wires each which plugs into the sensors via sockets. Have a multimeter and read the conductivity of the wires. If it registers, it’s fine. Proceed to the sensor and check the resistivity of the sensor any reading outside 60-680 Ohms range, you replace the sensor. It’s more of a professional job and less of a DIY job. If you’re in Abuja and environ, do contact me to fix it. |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by alaricsaltzman: 2:43pm On Oct 05, 2022 |
kingreign: Thank you very much. I'm in Lagos. Can you recommend someone in Lagos? Also, is it a job for a rewire or a gear master? |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 3:03pm On Oct 05, 2022 |

@kingreign hell of an assistance you are offering to millions of car users. More growth to you. I am currently based in zaria/Kaduna & I'd like my car checked by someone as good as you within that axis. Would have loved it be you but FCT is a long drive & time is not my friend at the moment. Do you know anyone you can connect me with? |
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by kingreign(m): 2:27am On Oct 06, 2022 |
nitt: Thank you very much for your kind words, this means a lot to me. I appreciate. As for your request, unfortunately, I don’t know any one in your axis that I can recommend. 1 Like |
