Fingers are overrated na. Kini big deal?

Fingers are overrated na. Kini big deal?

Those fingers are too precious to lose o.
I recall 3 months ago, I was fixing a VW Passat 99 sedan (which I eventually put up for sale), only for the bonnet strut to fail, the heavy bonnet came down and slam four fingers on my left hand. Horrible was an understatement about how I felt. I saw stars, moon and sun that day. My head reset and I left the car on that spot went to sleep, I nursed that pain for over a month.

Good day Gazzuzz, kudos to you for all jobs well done. Pls I need your professional advice as regard sienna 99 issues am encountering :- (1) it consume fuel excessively
(2) at times it drags on motion in which it won't shift while feet on accelerator pedal, after like 10 sec or there about, it will shift to high speed,worst scenario it won't move unless to OFF IGNITION and ON again also any time I ON the AC, this issue will surely occur
(3) leakage on the power steering pump hose, (3rd one just got damaged)

WHAT HAS BEEN DONE AS REGARD ITEM 1&2 (3 DIFF.REWIRE)
Knock sensor changed
Air flow meter replaced
Spark plugs replaced
Smoke sensor
Fuel pump ( only the pump)
Was told to replace the coils and also the air flow meter again

Results of scan done by my self
P1150-A/F sensor circuit range / performance Malfunction
P1155-A/F sensor heater circuit Malfunction
Pls, come to my rescue, tire of all this try n errors

Misdiagnosis on the rear left stiff wheel. It was not caused by the bearing, it was brake binding. The brake pads are worn at the rear and the rear caliper will need replacement (will try servicing first)

Hello Mr Gazzuzz. i own honda crv 2003 model which was purchased as tokunbo in nigeria. i want to bring the vehicle to you to test and advise as sometimes engine seems to fall short of power. please advise your address and time to bring it within this week. thanks

Emperoh:
Uncle, what's up with the airbags?

Are you fixing them to working condition again? Or just to take care of the tear?

Will the Airbag indicator go off?

Sure if the modules are replaced, and the crash sensor aren't damaged, they will work properly, however some advanced Toyotas will require a reset of the airbag ECU.

Of course the crash sensor(s) where the impact occurred WILL need to be replaced(as this is what triggered the deployment in the first place). Also to be replaced will be the seat-belt pretensioners( particularly for front-end collision). The airbag control unit reset can be done manually (i know only for Toyota models, and if you have the car repair manual) or through a diagnostic machine of sufficient competence to do so.But this must be done only if all deployed units are replaced with new(or fairly used) ones.

Air. Bag pretensioners, have been procured, the aim is to fix the airbags untill there is no ERROR.

Hello Chief,

Were you able to get it?

Hello Chief,

Were you able to get it?

It's a delicate purchase. We need to talk.

GAZZUZZ:

It's a delicate purchase. We need to talk.

I was the one calling you between 10:00 & 10:03am.

I would call again in the next 30 minutes.

Love your works, always waiting for updates on cars your working on to see the before and after pictures. Will love to bring my ride over to Scan and remove the check engine light and also change the brake pads, also other things you might deem fit to change, but my fear na the money to do all this things, love your professional touch on your works.

Osama10:

Sorry Osama, I called back when I could.

Picking calls and working on cars is a very hard juggling act, especially when the office is filled. Presently understaffed and have to do most of the delicate work alone.

Boss your vehicle is ready.

Brake binding caused by failing brake master.

It's been replaced.

Camry 01 red.

Power steering pump replaced the second time (first one didn't work well) second one works perfect.

Hi gazuzz, pls i need your assitance my steering feels hard when i steer to the right, and soft when steering to the left, what could be the cause, the steering pump has being changed, but still very hard if steer to the right...its a toyota highlander.

Hello @GAZZUZZ. I'm really fascinated by the level of competence you are displaying on this thread. Please keep it up because from all indications you are good at what you do.

Please do you do RHD to LHD conversion? If you do, i will like to do business with you. But if you don't, can you recommend someone to me?

Thank you.

Thanks for the compliment. It depends on the vehicle in question.

Hi Gazzuzz,
You left a comment on a thread i opened regarding conversion of Toyota Avensis 2000 Auto from RHD to LHD, with a quote of 150K, I would like to know if it is something you can do taking into account the ideal requirements and replacement such as dashboard, steering etc.
