If your a/c compressor has not been replaced with a manual 1, then the only issue you have is idle speed.

Idle speed should be at 850-870 at all times if not you will have vibrations on that vehicle.

With higher mileage (above 100k) the gearbox makes some funny noises, just ensure you change your transmission fluid every 30-40k km. There's no known solution for the funny noises.[/color][/quote]

Thank you for your input. I'm not sure if the compressor has been changed to manual one. The mileage is 95+ and I just top up the transmission fluid few weeks ago.

I will follow your advice peradventure, if the there is no changes can I bring the car to your workshop?

Thank you.

Prequel to my past queries, as some keen followers might remember.

I met with GAZZUZZ yesterday @ his workshop and have picked up the engine block.

He kept to his words and I was able to put a face to the name. I gotta say this though; good-looking lad.

Sorry; are you answering my question about my Honda baby boy ac

Honda baby boy

When the car is moving, AC very cold, but once the car is stationary or moving slowly, like it normally happens in a traffic holdup, the coldness drastically drops, to extent that inside the car be getting stuffy. But once the car starts moving again, it starts getting cold.

Wonder what could be responsible for this?

usually a defective compressor. There could be other causes like a blocked drier, faulty expansion valve blocked condenser dirty system.

You should have it checked out by an a.c technician.

If you do not want to guess, find someone with a high end scanning device and run a live scan. Problem might be from fuel sender in tank, fuel guage in cluster, harness or engine ecu.

I will assume your engine is a 4cylinder.
P0135, p0141
Both oxygen sensors on the exhaust are not reporting info to the engine ecu. The sensors could be damaged, harness could be damaged, engine ecu could be defective.

P0122 inconsistent signal from the throttle position sensor.

Oga gauzzuzz, where is your workshop located at Ikeja pls...and how do I book an appointment for inspection of a car I intend to buy. Thanks
Re: ASK GAZZUZZ by PtBlank: 8:58pm On Jul 20, 2017
Gazzuzz,

I plan to buy a used Hyundai Accent 2004. The seller told me the engine is smoking which implies I would have to change it. I would like to know the cost of this engine so I can know how to bargain with the seller.


2. What would you charge to help verify the integrity of the vehicle so I can know if there are other hidden issues before buying?

Thank you.

@AKWALES that's just it. Your fuel gauge is indicated by 13 illuminated segments. A live scan would show values (litres) corresponding to segments as follows: 13 illuminated segments should show 57-61; 10: 44-49; 7: 31-35; 4: 17-21; 0: 0-3. If the respective segments and corresponding values don't match, then the instrument cluster has malfunctioned and would have to be replaced. If the segments and values match, then the fuel level sensor (should all connections check good) inside the the fuel pump is going or has gone bad. You should probably have an error code for that. Here again the entire unit (the fuel pump) would have to be replaced. And even at this one would have to be lucky to get a toks pump with a functioning fuel level sensor.

Wehdon Boss, my power steering fluid drained cause of a leakage in the hose somewhere. After repair the kazeem bought one scarry looking atf called dextron 3d and refilled. Although my blood pressure was steadily rising as he poured that poo while my baby boy gulped it down, I intentionally let him(reason being i wasnt sure if the leakage has been completely stopped and i wouldnt risk buying the expensive honda dw 1 atf only for it to be completely drained again in this recession !!) I plan to drain it on monday after i am satisfied there are no more leakages but i am worried if that fluid will hurt my boy i drove the car a lot today(the fix was done in the morning) and already the steering has started behaving like danfo own. Abeg boss i hope no much harm has been done. grin

Ps: its a v6 99 accord
