@all So I finally got my Nissan altima 2.5, scanned today after using it for 3 months... I'm sure oga Gazzuzz and diportivo remembers me well from my Nissan thread... I was complaining of hard start back then.. Sometimes, the car starts normally for a period of time (a week maybe) without any form of hard start... It starts once... Sometimes it just begins the hard start again and starts only after 3 or more tries... However, its been working fine for over a week now but I just decided to get it scanned. The scan codes are attached below.. Now my issue is which one of these codes could be causing the ocassional hard start? I Dont want these mechanics to start putting hand where it isn't necessary... What advise will you give me on repair? Thanks

HazzanTazzan: If you have a hard starting problem, get a very very competent rewire to fix it for you, not a Mechanic. |

niyi2u: I know its an old post, if you still have the problem then I think you need to replace your shaft inner cup if you havent don't so. |

I am an advocate of professionalism in every of our dealings, and that is why I come here tonight to appreciate one of our own who has taken his craft to the very high level of professionalism. I have been to Gazzuzz garage twice, once for overheating issue and then for ac repairs. To say gazzuzz is a thorough bred professional is underestimating the value I got dealing with him. Gazuzz raises the bar...I went to gazuzz for ac repair, I got that and more. He went the extramile to tune up my engine. I got my car washed, my engined washed and resprayed, that is what I call customer service per excellence. I usually take my time before going to gazuzz workshop because he would never cut corners to give u the best, hence u will be made to use the best available part at a cost, but is the cost incurred worth it..yes it is more than worth it, afterall whatever has value should be paid for. Meanwhile I want to use this opportunity to solicit for our home grown engineers, lets help them by paying the true value of their effort, they also have bills to pay. Thanks gazuzz..I am the pontiac guy 2 Likes |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by cucumbar: 7:42pm On Oct 30, 2016 |
Please, I have been having these codes, P0456 and P0457 for like 6 months now. Both have to do with a leak in the evaporation or emission system. I changed the fuel cap which is the first attempt at resolution recommend, but it did not solve the issue. Now, the other components that have been submitted to be the culprits, I don't know where they are in the car. To make matters worse, I live on an island where you don't have access to competent mechanics. Please could you give me directions on how to direct a mechanic to fix this? There are no problems with how the car drives yet, but I hate seeing that check engine light on, and yesterday, a security man told me he perceived the smell of petrol while I was driving out. The car is a 2007 Honda Accord.

cucumbar: your fuel tank is unable to hold vacuum. It is leaking, mechanic should find the leak. 2 ways you can do this. 1. DIY: find the leak. 2. Workshop: take it to a workshop and pay for the service. Contrary to what you said, there are good workshops on the island. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by cucumbar: 9:59pm On Oct 31, 2016 |
GAZZUZZ:Lol. Not Lagos island o, I'm talking about bonny island. But please o, I thought I would be seeing traces of fuel if my fuel tank was leaking? |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by adanny01(m): 5:58pm On Nov 02, 2016 |
cucumbar: Depending on the level of the leakage. Most vacuum leakage from fuel tank is either from fuel filler pipe and fuel pump port in the trunk. Did you change or work on the fuel pump recently. One easy way to find the leak is fill the tank to the brim. Keep putting fuel till it shows up on the filler it will usually show up but go down so keep adding till it stops going down. If it stays at the brim then the leakage is small and may be harder to find but of it keeps gown down, you should be able to see fuel flooding somewhere. |
