heyjay: Scan your car for transmission related codes. the pressure control solenoid in your valvebody is acting up. most likely due to debris in your valvebody causing a sticky valve. |

TINKU01: the 2003 Rav4 is more maintenace friendly and affordable to run. But ensure that it does not have transmission related issues also ensure your temperature gauge works fine |

MotorGuru:Hello MotorGuru, I drive accord 03. Gear selects perfectly. But When on top speed at 60mph, car experiences continuous revving and won't speed up beyond 60mph. Please what could cause this problem. Thanks |
Re: Your Motor Guru Is Here! Ask Your Questions... by MotorGuru: 6:28pm On Aug 21, 2019 |
cerpvad:at standstill and with engine running, does your car rev above 3000 rpm? Scan the vehicle for codes. |
Re: Your Motor Guru Is Here! Ask Your Questions... by cerpvad(m): 6:44pm On Aug 21, 2019 |
Yes at standstill, with engine running, it revs above 3000 rpm. But it is only when traveling on top speed around 60-80mph that car experiences the continuous revving which will not allow it speed beyond 60/80mph. A rewire guy I went to told me it is the raising sensor that has faults. Is there anything called raising sensor or he is just doing trial and error? As per scanning the car for codes, I don't understand. How does codes solve the problem? MotorGuru: |

cerpvad: It helps in solving the problem by localizing the problem area, making troubleshooting a lot easier |

MotorGuru: It's a long and complicated story that I have forgotten most part of it. Car suddenly refused starting and wasn't even able to crank. It was later diagnosed to be as a result of a fault ECU . I bought an ECU, got someone from Lagos to come program and fix the car. The man came did what he did.. now the car could start only when you Jumpstart it... tried reprogramming the key or whatever, no success. So the car got towed to Lagos where another ECU was bought and fixed. Long story short, the car can now start but it can't shift from gear 2 to any other gear. All the functions on dash board ain't working.. the new report now is that I have to buy another ECU for the car because the one currently in the car isn't functioning well. And I might also have to buy a transmission control module to. I'm sick and tired of the whole issue already. The car is a Cadillac cts 2006. This is just a summary of the whole issue |

mahkanjuh: 1. Toyota Corolla 2. Toyota Corolla There is a reason why this car (particularly the 03-07 models) are very expensive. Extreme reliability, extremely simple to repair/ extremely cheap to run(on petrol) to name but a few you can consider Honda civic (2006 models up) and our friend Weyreypey can suggest a few 1 Like |

CarGuideNG:Thanks alot Sir. But The problem isn't getting an ecu but making sure it works. The last one i orderd from the states ended up "partly functional". My programmer had to place another order by himself via a friend of his in The states. It came, worked fine but having transmission issues and dash board functions are not functional. As it is now, I don't think my programmer knows where the problem lies. He suggested I buy another ECU which will make it the 3rd ECU I'll be buying. I then told him about the TCM. Which he said I might have to buy to. So I'm really confused now. No be say person dey pluck money from tree |

Goodmorning Guru., pls help me out. i have a problem with my 02 volvo s60. When I have full tank the car drives perfectly,but as soon as it drops to 50liters the car will loose a considerable amount of power,i already changed the fuel filter and yet. I scanned the car and got these codes:p0238 -turbocharger/supercharger boost sensor A' circuit high. P0808_clutch position sensor circuit high. P0030_heater control circuit bank 1 sensor 1 P0016_crankshaft position-camshaft position correlation bank 1 sensor A. What could I possibly be looking at sir? |

I got a naija used car but previous owner uses 20w-50 but changes often As directed, i opened the engine oil cover to ascertain the level of Sludge in the engine (i dont know if it works this way) however find attached the pic. I intend to use total quartz 9000 5w-40 for some time instead of straight 5w-30 due to what has been said. Please recommend Cc Motorguru Bigkendo

Please house. I'm thinking of getting either a Volkswagen Passat 2006 or Toyota Corolla 2001/2 (both Nigerian used) but the Toyota is more expensive than the VW. Is it safe to go for the VW or to beef up my budget and go for the Toyota. Thanks in advance. Cheers! |
