Chevrolet avalanche update: After extensive test drive, seem to understand the problems of this car a little more. The check engine light is gone and there are no errors on the engine or transmission ECU But 1. 2nd gear does not engage: initially after the first test drive, what I thought was a delayed shift from 1-2 was actually a shift from 1-3! 2nd gear seems to be missing, we will search for it tommorow ![]() 2. Battery or starter motor bad: vehicle cranks well from cold position, but when hot cranks really slow, and basically shuts down all the electronics of the car when that happens. 3. When car is cranked from hot temp, it tends to reset engine ecu, due to extreem drop in voltage caused by bad starter or battery, this causes the engine ecu to start a throttle re-learn function, and gives a very low idle. Armed with this new info will take out starter motor and check transmission tommorow. |

Hello Mr Gazzuzz, Please I need your professional advice as I'm in Abeokuta at the moment. I bought a Corolla 2003 LE(American spec) in December 2015. First, I travel from Lagos to Abeokuta and Abeokuta to Lagos fortnightly but always jumps in and out of potholes. Again, whenever I park, most times, I remove the car key before I realize I've not put the gear in park position. Yesterday, I stopped to refill my tank which was exactly at the half-tank mark on the indicator but didn't remove the key from the ignition and my car was on drive while the attendant was attending to me. Afterwards, I set out to Abeokuta from Lagos and behold by the time I arrived Abeokuta the CHECK engine light was on. What could be the problem, sir? Thanks and so sorry If this is not the right forum for this |

Oga GAZZUZZ Please I really need your help in locating knock sensor in my Honda Accord 1998. |
Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by GAZZUZZ(m): 8:41pm On May 08, 2016 |
thinko: easy, it's at the back of the engine, left of the oil filter.

Re: Remotely Follow Your Vehicle Repairs Online by thinko: 8:55pm On May 09, 2016 |
Oga gazzuzz Thanks alot. I have finally seen it. The sensor is not connected, no cable attached to it. The question is if no cable attach to it suppose not to show any error of knock sensor from ECU. The problem now is dat mechanics in my state don't know wat a knock sensor is. They argue dat it's not a sensor but oil switch. I have to look for the cable to attach it together. |

Problems were Faulty distributor cover and spark plug wires, faulty spark plugs, clogged injectors leaking O rings at base of injectors, faulty coil, faulty B1 S1 O2 sensor. All have been replaced except for the O2 sensor, vehicle drives very well no and does not stall.
