It wasn't there until about a week ago, or at least that's when I started noticing it. I thought it might fade or something, so I watched it for a week.

Still there, though car runs fine.

I just want a very quiet engine

Grupo:


I don't understand, engine has moving parts na, it's supposed to make some noise.

Do you hear this particular noise when you are inside your car?

theadeola:


Not at all

Grupo:


I think your engine is okay sha.

I also hear that particular clicking sound when I remove the plastic engine cover.

Better let your car be. Or you go give it to kazeem make them. Scatter for you.

Hello guys
I have a Lexus rx350 2011
The check engine light and traction control light are on.

When I scanned it I got the following codes
P043E, P043F, P2401, P2402 and P2419
Checked online and saw it had something to do with EVAP emissions.
How can I fix this ?

Secondly, anytime I go over rough roads or bumps I hear a very annoying rattling noise in my wheels.
I also hear some squeaky sounds at the front of the car sometimes, the squeaky sounds come and go, mostly comes after driving fast on rough/ uneven roads

Thirdly, I think my car consumes a lot of fuel.
I fill up to about 70Litres and this lasts me for about 245miles
Mostly city driving
How do I fix all this @everyone ?

No way. No kazeem will touch my engine.

Thank you for your input. I'll keep the car as is.

Thank

Good day car gurus,
Firstly, there is this thing my toyota camry 2008 2AZ just started doing every morning on cold start. It won’t start on the first crank but it will always start on the second crank. After that cold start, it will keep starting well throughout the day.
Secondly, there is thing other thing it does once a while. I might park for a few minutes to go do something and when i get back and crank the rngine, it will start and go off immediately. If i keep cranking it after that, it won’t come on. Unless i give it a few minutes to rest then i crank it again. I barely does this maybe one in two weeks or once a month.
I’ve had my vehicle scanned and the only code there is the p0420 code for catalyst below threshold bank 1. I’ve had that code since I started using the vehicle so I don’t think it’s responsible for the issue I’m having

245 miles or kilometres?... Cos I don't think fuel consumption of 70litres for 245 miles is on the high side sha...

Hello Gurus
A friend wants to buy a Nigerian Used Volkswagen Passat 2007.

Is it a good ride?

How reliable and fuel efficient is it?

Thanks in anticipation of your reviews

Grupo:


Do you constantly have to top up the coolant/water in your radiator?

GAZZUZZ:


The car has a name?

GAZZUZZ:


I don't know any happy owners

gotten solution to these. First one, was my battery being unable to start at the first crank, had to replace alternator when batteries kept going bad
Second issue was my key going bad. I guess it's connection to the chip wasn't solid anymore. I only found out when i replaced my key after i lost the previous one.

Hello @ Gazzuzz @ Bizzyliss @everyone

pateffy:


Please how were you able to replace your lost key and what is your location

Namzy:


Had the same issue. Problem caused by overfilling fuel tank. Fix was to change the charcoal canister
Didn't have time or the money so I kept clearing the code and it will come back. After a while code disappeared I guess the canister must have dried up. It's been 6 months now and I haven't seen the code. But your case maybe different because I didn't notice any symptoms except those 5 codes
