Please where can I find Lexus RX330 engine number? The police is disturbing me about that as my vehicle particulars do not have the engine number on them. |

Good afternoon guys I got a good deal on a 2013 honda pilot ex-l (to be brought in myself) Is this a good replacement for a 2008 highlander base? are there are issues the honda pilot has? Nurey Kingreign 9ice etc etc etc |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by nurey(m): 3:01pm On Oct 06, 2023 |
lexini: The pilot 08 to 2015 came with the J35Z4 - VCM and the VCM it was equipped with is the VCM 2, you may have issues with VCM if engine isnt well cared for. If you can get the vehicle history good for you |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by lexini: 3:34pm On Oct 06, 2023 |
thanks boss which vehicle history report is the most detailed? autocheck, clearvin or carfax? nurey: |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by nurey(m): 3:51pm On Oct 06, 2023 |
lexini: I only know of autocheck and Carfax any of the two will suffice |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by lexini: 4:25pm On Oct 06, 2023 |
I got car fax report. Consistent vehicle servicing No major repairs at all Is there anything else I should look out for? nurey: |

changing the cylinder and the camshaft, I received the check engine error code P0605, which indicates an Internal Control Module Read Only Memory (ROM) Error. Since then, whenever I accelerate my car, the throttle stops working. I have to switch the car off and on again for it to return to normal. And the car RPM do fluentuate at idle too and the rewire and the mechanic seems not to know what to do about it The car is kia optima 2013 gdi turbo |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by ReformerD: 6:26pm On Oct 12, 2023 |
My Kia Optima Turbo GDI has recently developed a knocking sound. I took it to a mechanic for inspection, and it was confirmed that the filter leading to the cylinder was blocked. Consequently, I had the cylinder and camshaft replaced. However, since then, my car has not been functioning properly. It can't accelerate beyond 40, and I have to turn off the car and restart it to get it moving again. Additionally, if I go beyond 30, the car stops. The car has been scanned, and the turbo has been checked. I was told the turbo is okay, but the car still won't accelerate beyond that limit. This issue has persisted for the past week.

Hello house Please I wanted to ask why AC fault is so common in Honda Civic 06-09. I’m trying to get one but I’ve noticed most of them have AC issue. Also, what are the general things to look out for when buying a Nigerian used Honda civic? I’m planning to take a mechanic with scanner though(I’m a car novice) |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by jceesquare(m): 8:04am On Oct 15, 2023 |
Abdul111:You've probably been checking ones with faulty AC's. There are lots of things to check apart from just pulling scan codes when going for inspection. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Abdul111: 7:18pm On Oct 15, 2023 |
jceesquare:thanks boss Can you pls list them out |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by jceesquare(m): 6:55am On Oct 16, 2023 |
Abdul111:There's a thread for it on car talk. Better still go with your mechanic for inspection. |

Hey there, folks in the Car Talk Chat Room! I've been tinkering under the hood of my old clunker lately, and I could sure use some advice. It's making this weird clunking sound when I hit the gas, and it's got me scratching my head. Any of you experienced gearheads have a suggestion on what might be causing this ruckus? I'd appreciate any insights you can throw my way! Thanks a million. đźš—đź’¨ [https://spacepsychiatrist.com/car-accident-lawyer-near-me/] |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by jceesquare(m): 2:10pm On Oct 16, 2023 |
spacepsychiatri:Engine and transmission mount should be inspected. Also check you inner CV axle to know if it's okay then replace |

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by fbtowner(m): 8:01pm On Oct 18, 2023 |
Hi guys. Please I need some assistance. My 08 Accord kind of want to swerve off road if I brake @120km or above, if I try to slow down with brake it forcefully turn my steering making the car moving like it wants to leave the road. So if I’m @120 speed or above I will have to release the throttle then when the speeds drops to 100 I will then apply brake very slowly I experienced this the very first time I traveled interstate with the car. And that was the only time I have traveled interstate with the car since I bought it The only notable things I did to the car when I bought it are 1, change driver side shaft 2, change both ball joint 3, change tire from 225/50 R17 to 225/55 R17 for front and 235/55 R17 for back 4, raised the car with one black rubber The mechanic said he will use one black rubber that will be added to the shock absorbers to raise it a little , after raising with that rubber a friend warned me that I won’t be able to travel with it because that rubber always have a bad effect when you are on high speed but he said I won’t notice anything if I’m driving around town. Now I don’t know if it’s the rubber or something else The way it swerve is really scary especially when I am beside a trailer and I want to quickly slow down to let it go |

People of God Abeg Make una help me o My car developed one fault and i wanted to check if anyone has experienced and has an idea what it could be Honda accord 2010 Na AC compressor i go do After the man fix am, i go carry the car I noticed on my way it wasn’t moving well and the gear wasn’t selecting well (Note: i had not driven it much) And was really entering reverse and drive with force like “ gbim”(a loud thud) So i parked to check the gear oil because i know when they remove radiator some of the oil will leak Lon and behold the dip stick didn’t have oil on it, I sha bought a dextron 3 oil to top it up and drove home but it didn’t stop change much The car was revving high and no selection or change in gear But i didn’t speed Was just going home jejely Next morning i took it to gear guy and he settled down and opened it and said gear is gone and that fiber is burnt but i didn’t smell anything burnt All i could smell was hot gear oil normally He said he will try his best that it should work. He sha bought abro cleaner, he loosened some of the solenoid on the gear and cleaned it and fixed them And Coupled everything Lo and behold We took it for a test drive and it worked ok The issue came back again on my way home when i parked to get something I wanted to reverse and it engaged but loudly and drive same thing and gear didn’t change I called the guy, he now said i should disconnect battery head and connect it back after 5 minutes and check Lo and behold it stopped and it drive smoothly and selected gears appropriately But anytime i off car and i want to start it again and i don’t disconnect battery for few seconds and plug it back The problem comes But if i disconnect battery It works fine until i of the car again.. I didn’t believe the burnt gear thing When i called the gear guy back and told him i need to disconnect battery to always reset He said i will buy gear and that it’s gone But i don’t seem to buy this because i took it to someone else that does gear (mechanical) (first guy was gear electrician) the person said nothing burnt And that if gear is truly burnt, and scattered as he said , why does it work when i disconnect battery and plug back? That it’s probably something electrical Although i go go scan am tomorrow sha But has anyone experienced anything of such ?? |
