[quote author=Franknerd post=71295714]Hello house, I noticed a Nissan frontier, I started using recently from office was consuming more fuel than usual. I took it to a mechanic yesterday and he told me that d catalyst was removed hence d reason for d high consumption of fuel. He told to buy catalyst and that any Nissan catalyst can work on d vehicle. Pls, gurus in the house how true is that statement and wat is the cost and where can I get a good Nissan catalyst? Thanks[ catalyst is one of those thing that can cause excess fuel consumption and have you have your vehicle checked by another mechanic to verify wan he said |

chikenicholas: Now you are talking, that P0420 code rarely comes up alone. My advice: Address the other codes first, clear the codes and drive the car, lets see what happens. Catalysts don't just fail, something made it fail. 1 Like |

teeytimi: You transmission is probably over heating or packing up. Get it scanned to know whats happening exactly. Could be problem with the clutch switches too. Which ATF have u been using inside it? 1 Like |

I have done a check on my car (Toyota Camry) and really, the compresor is badly damaged on the inside. I was told the oil got dried up. I also took it to another electrician @ Ladipo who looked at it and said the same thing. The compressor for my car cost btw 37k to 40k but was given an option of getting a Peugeot's own with the same sitting though less expensive. I hope to get it done by tomorrow, I don't really have that cash and I'm considering option B, which I have no knowledge of since it's less expensive. So pls i need advice, thanks. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by mosbus: 3:47pm On Sep 26, 2018 |
Kristolite:I will advice you save your money when you have enough cash,fix the AC,the Peugeot compressor capacity is too much for your engine. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Kristolite: 6:16am On Sep 27, 2018 |
Wow! I didn't know that. And it's a bit smaller than the Camry. Thanks any way. I will save up for the Camry compressor. |

Hello guys, I need help for my Honda accord 2003 model(EOD) v6. Last week Thursday on my way from work, I started hearing a knocking sound, wch was checked out and I was told it was the crankshaft. They changed the crankshaft,the car started but then the engine pushes out water from the radiator immediately it is started. They changed the gasket already and the problem persists. Once the car is started it pushes out water from the radiator immediately. What could be the problem pls Coz my mechanic seems not to know what to do next.

We decided to go with my wife to see Rome. We found an excellent car rental service Rental24H, there are any categories of cars. But we liked the cabriolet, he brightened up our rest and travel as a whole. |

Hello great pple,pls I need sb to help confirm this.I have a civic 2006,if I buy 2k fuel,it can't take me to and from VI to Ogba.Pls if u are using the same civic model,is this how urs consume fuel?thank you. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by nurey(m): 3:54pm On Sep 28, 2018 |
Goks2017: haaaaaaaaaaaaaa we have said several times fuel consumption isn't calculated by location to location but distance travelled,condition of the road and driver driving habit. Also if your check engine light is on scan your ride and fix impending codes |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by henrygale(m): 5:52pm On Sep 28, 2018 |
nurey:No. Starts 'easily-well'. Water pump was checked and is intact. Washed the radiator. Problem persists. This evening, water in the radiator keep going down like the next minute when u top it. And the mechanic while testing it noticed that water has mixed with engine oil now and water seeping out of the exhaust pipes! |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by nurey(m): 6:43pm On Sep 28, 2018 |
henrygale: like I said gasket job wasn't done well. you already stated 2 symptoms 1. milky watery engine oil 2. water escaping in exhaust. why you don't have a hard start I don't know. Oya let him redo the gasket this time following the recommended procedure and utilising OEM gasket |
