It affects the functionality of the transmission adversely.

Fix that code and a lot of problems will be solved.
hey boss

I've got the 3rd gear pressure switch circuit changed. The code didn't return but all my gear still slips during change to upward gears. It does not slip when downshifting. What could be my gear problem o

Is this an appropriate comment, I posted it earlier and then took it off, but on second thoughts, I am posting it again.

This guy has a point honmusa.

What is saying is that you need much more than technical skills to make customers accord you sage status.

Many of those patronizing these boards have spent a significant fortune in purchasing automotive technology to move them from point to point.

They want someone who proves that he has mastery over what he is doing, they want someone they can trust, someone who puts them at ease, they depend heavily on automotive technology to be effective and efficient, they don't want unavoidable downtown or mistakes being made at their expense.

They have come to know that mechanics can be untrustworthy, they complain about kazeems, they want you to prove you are not one of them.

They also want to peek into your mind, so they want you to show them how you think, how you approach problem solving solving and that your methods are peer-validated.

They want to know are you up to the task of taking care of today's highly complex automotive technology - are you just good or are you great.

Those are questions that you can help them answer by the way you respond to issues - by always saying come to xyz, that does not happen. There is what is called subtle marketing in which you get someone to do what you want without asking - I think you know as much as I do someone else who has achieved that on that forum and whose name is on nearly every lip - that cannot as of yet be said about you.

By always proposing come to xyz instead of trying to walk them through a solution at a high-level or abstract level you fail to take advantage of opportunities to create that bond between potential client and service provider.

I strongly encourage you to be open-minded enough to give his suggestion a try.

Kingreign has said something similar in so many words or so few words recently.

That guy just gave you free marketing advice.

I laugh at you. Someone complained of an issue. Common sense would have told you simple things first, if actually u are a professional. Look at the lengthy project work you typed there to confuse the OP and drag him to your shop to collect money. Someone, a so called unprofessional just advised tightening his fuel tank cap. That just solved the problem. That brings the question of how professional you are. There are problems whose solutions are beyond DIY. That is where you come in. The DIY issue should be where u should prove your mettle. If common sense was common, you would have taken our advice quietly.

l am just laughing tru all your piece here cos I can clearly see the way you think.Lol.You are too cheap to be wasting my megabytes on .cos u don't even understand the issue self let alone obd2 diagnostic procedure or even what evap slef .so if the op Replace cap,clear the code and u assume that the issue will go away because check engine light light vanished ??all jsut that to say I am wrong so that you can score a cheap point ?sorry I too sophisticated than that , get busy so that u can find a life and calling .

A small sensor attached to your rocker arm, could be affected by dirty rocker arm and prevents the car from going beyond a particular RPM. Replace sensor (2-3k) and clean rocker arm

EGR valve or charcoal canister is cylindrical valve very visible on your engine and the toks is 5k.

Car revs fine, that's the confusing bit, guess it's to clean the rocker arm BUT I don't even know what it looks like.

Thanks for the prompt response but I doubt whether it could be the door. My reason is that the alarm isn't going off when I open or close the door but after a period of inactivity.

Have got a solution, after lots of trial. serviced all the calipers, changed master break, change breakpad etc after all the problem continued. A mechanic i was referred to , simple adjusted a string or something under the steering compartment. he said it was too tight. i was so surprised that i never experienced the problem after that adjustment.

Sorry, OP, make I laff small first.

How did you measure the differential temperature of the tyres?
Remember when driving, tyres are normally expected to heat up.

But seriously, I think you should consider fuel system or electrical issues.

How does your car behave at idle?
While experiencing this retarded acceleration, has your engine ever shut off on its own OR jerked?

Misfires should be ruled out.

You need to SCAN THE CAR to find out.

Cheers!

Hello, yesterday I got this code:

P1129 HONDA Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Circuit Higher Than Expected.

My car is a 2007 hondas accord I4. I'm not sure it has a MAP sensor. I used to think it is the V6 that uses MAP.

What could be the problem?

Based on your confirmation, your engine is getting fuel supply and no spark. I will suggest you scan, but main culprit for a that particular vehicle is the crank shaft position sensor.
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by adanny01(m): 8:06pm On Jun 14, 2017
Gazzuzz sir, i also have a problem to share.

I had to park my car for a week for the issue of power steering pump pipe leakage problem. I didnt travel with it for fear it will become worst and might not get me to destination. I couldnt get a good and affordable replacement so i asked my mechanic to do the working he did on my mum's 1996 accord.

He did it and it is working well. The brakes felt spongy so I instructed him to bleed the brakes. All 4s where bled.

This brought a new problem, everytime i reverse, ABS light comes on but goes off at restart. When moving on asphalt without touching the brakes i hear the ABS pump working intermittently and sometimes during soft braking. It does that more in the mornings and ABS light comes on thereafter and sometimes doesnt.

I thought the brake fluid was short but it has been topped with no difference. My drivers side ABS sensor wire had cut before and was joined and taped with electrical insulating tape. I checked the joint its still intact with no contacts.

Suggestions i got from search is to wipe clean all sensors and hub teething. I couldnt get the sensor out as its kinda stuck on.

Whats your suggestions.

Failing Abs wheel speed sensor. A scan showing a coherence fault would indicate a faulty pulsar, but a scan showing an open or closed circuit would indicate a damaged abs sensor or harness. I am sure you do not have a scanner with you, so let's diagnose old sch.

Get a multimeter, set to read resistance, set to kilo ohms, working abs sensor for your vehicle would be around 1500k now disconnect abs sensor at connector get a firm reading, then wiggle the harness leading to the tip (2 man job) do it for all 4 sensors and if you do not have variations in resistance readings, problem is with pulsar and you will need a scanner to narrow that down the easy way.

I'm putting my money on a faulty abs sensor. Most technicians are careless around them when working.


P.S, we were wrong about the K24AZ3 and the 2 solenoids and 2 pressure switches, I am buying one tomorrow and it comes with 1 switch and solenoid, so are over 6 I saw in the warehouse. More pics after I pay for it.
