Good day beautiful People of NL,

I want to use this medium to say a very big thank you to everyone that contributed to this thread, y'all are MVPs ....

Haven tried to fix the issue i earlier complained about, i am happy to tell y'all that i have eventually fixed the problem.

First off, i changed the Throttle body (aka Injector Mouth) & the Fuel pump completely but the problem still persist, i serviced the Fuel Injectors just as a Nairalander suggested though it will move for a couple of hours and still went back to the problem.

Out of Curiosity, i went ahead and carryout a research by meeting some so called auto electricians aka rewire to ask for solution but they couldn't give a remedy to the issue.....

Last weekend i woke up early in the morning and i felt i can fix this problem by my self....out of curiosity i went ahead and dismantled the Air intake hose, MAF sensor, O2 Sensor, CAM shaft and crankshaft sensor, coolant sensor and i used an electronic cleaning fluid with high pressure air to clean these sensors, sun them and reconnect every thing.

Lo and Behold the vehicle came back to its original operation mode...

I drove the car for several hours and it worked fine

What i suspected to be the culprit from My observation is the O2 Sensor, since i have been using the vehicle i have never for once try to clean the O2 sensor as it was too clogged with carbon and unable to operate properly which made the vehicle to misbehave.

Should incase any NL is having similar issue, the first thing i will advise you look into is the Air filter, always make sure is clean, secondly your fuel pump, also make sure is working & it giving the necessary pressure & Lastly, the O2 sensor, that O2 sensor can also make ur vehicle behave the way mine does before i finally rectify the cause.

Once again i want to say a very big thank you to y'all, u guys are the best!!!!

Hello beautiful people of NL,

I drive a Nissan sunny (Almera classic), the car has been working perfectly well but started giving some issues for the past couple of days now, I was driving one morning & all of a sudden it stops responding when I press the throttle pedal, it jerks like there is no fuel in it & it went off, after few seconds I cranked it & it responded & drives normal again.
The next day it stops responding to the throttle pedal whenever I rev, I would leave it for a while & crank it again, it will respond for a while & again it won't respond to revving again, but it idles very well it just respond intermittently to revving.
i was advised to change the throttle body (aka injector mouth), it works & drives well for about an 1 hour plus but again the problem still came back.

Pls the car gurus in the house help!!!!
Could it be the throttle pedal sensor I need to change this time around?
I need Ur expertise on this problem.
Again I drive Nissan sunny a.ka. Nissan Fashola or Nissan sunny.

Thanking U all in anticipation

Thanks for Ur input, I will do the needful & revert.

2cribz:
How can you change fuel pump and not service injectors.dont u know that fuel pump with injectors are doing team work.alaye better go and service injectors ultrasonic way..budget 5k. If not,rewire go scatter your engine complete.a throttle body will only need replacement if it got burnt or it entered inside water while working.alaye go service injector.also check if u get exhaust leaks.

Attached is the image of my car type & engine

calculation:
What is the engine type inside your car? Or snap pix for me to look at it.
Kindly also check and read this thread.

Thanks for Ur contribution, I will arrange to replace the complete fuel pump system & I will revert 👍🏻

josephsm823:



It is your fuel pump.
You need to change the complete pump system.
Just replace the complete pump and issue will be resolved.

Thanks for Ur input, I have changed the pump but still the same problem 😕

serenegroup:
Maybe your fuel pump

Thanks for Ur input, I have changed the fuel pump when the issue first occur, I tot it was the fuel pump too but the problem still persists even after changing the throttle body like I have said earlier 😢

now:

Most likely fuel pump

Hello beautiful people,

I drive Nissan Sunny 2008 (AKA nissan Almera classic) & I am planning to do some body work on my car & also paint it & get it back to almost pristine condition.
I already bought the front and back bumpers to be fixed by the technician.
I wanted to buy a new set of headlights, back light & fog lamp but the prices on the headlight and back light is too exorbitant (I can't even find the fog lamp in the market) and meanwhile they are not brand new but used & refurbished lights for that matter.
Instead of spending unnecessarily on used items I felt I should be able to refurbish/reconstruct my car lights but I don't know where to get it done.

Pls my beautiful people I need help on where to get my car lights reconstructed and make it look like new 🙏🏻

I am based in Ota, Ogun state.

Thanking you in anticipation 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

GAZZUZZ:


Check item 55045

Boss Gazzuzz : Is that the low arm bushing ? Pls correct me if I'm wrong

Onuimo1:
If you want quality Automobile parts. me. I deal on cars too.

Noted pls!

Onuimo1:
You shouldn't have given it to a welder for anything.

Check struts that needs to be replaced.
Springs could be an issue too.

Use higher performance shocks.look for springs with higher spring rate

Abi? My bad on that🙁, thanks for ur input I will do as u have recommended

hodusglobal:
Have you changed the springs before?

I haven't, though my mechanic claims he changed the front springs only (I doubt if he did though)

Hi Nairalanders,

I drive a 2010 Nissan Sunny (AKA Fashola), my suspension was not doing it job anymore as it has already been slightly over a year I installed the absorber.
The car was too bouncy and doesn't absorb shock any more so I bought a brand new absorber and get it installed but yet when I ride it still bounces though it was fair compared the old shock absorber but the new absorber doesn't feel right as it should being a new absorber.
When I hit even the smallest bump i do feel like it was a very big bump as the new absorber doesn't absorb the shock and the car seems like it swerving whenever this happens.

Another point is, I raised the car a bit by giving the shock absorber to welder to lift the base (I did same to the old previous absorber too & it worked perfectly well until it worn out) as the road I ply every day is a bad & bumpy road & the car hits the ground hence the raising.

What can I do to eliminate the rough ride even after I have installed new absorber....
All the car gurus in the house Please help !!!! This is very urgent!!!!

We the civilians urge the Military to remain calm and go about their daily business as we work to fish out those planning the attack. We have arranged an elite Nairaland squad that will monitor all YouTube and MTV videos looking for the suspects.
Once again the army should remain calm and trust us the civilians.
One Nigeria.

The best sarcastic construction have seen this year

you that understand it, are you at the peak of your career? with your fairly used brain

Hmmmmm...little wonders....now I see!!!

Wiifesnatcher:




where has your experience take you to? who ideas EPP if there is no capital


if he didn't involved himself in any financial discrepancies in the school he's working, they will hardly relieved me of his job except his village people. the prayer of those school that enjoy your service is for you not to leave their work


find out

Really?

Case closed... I can see you understand nothing about career growth & self development...bye bye

Angelacruz:
Tell them you are going for a six months course,don't resign yet from your teaching job.

So the private school will now leave his position vacant till he comes back after 6 months?

Is either he press further in life and take the NGO job or he sits in one place and be collecting his 70K salary while his own market value depreciate simple.

Wiifesnatcher:
you studied ing and you're an ant where you work?


how much is 125×6= 750k. and savings for the 6months might be 600k let's assume, what did you intend to do after that? start a business?


duration and steady income are things you should put into consideration and as an ant I expect you to know better

What happen to the opportunities, experience & exposure he will get while on the NGO job? Is he planning to be on the private school job forever? And besides who said the school can not tell him to go even before the intended 6 months?

@OP, let me ask you this question first & answer me honestly, how long have u been working with ur private school & what have u achieved over the period? If you can't pin point anything tangible since u've been working with the private school then take ur new JOB.
The good thing about NGO job is they open doors for bigger opportunities by the way NGO don't stop their workers as such as their projects are continuous and they always renew their worker's contract whenever they expire, meanwhile the 125K is just ur basic salary Ooo plenty allowances still dey, u may end up taking home almost 200K at the end of each month, so the 6 months is just a formality, they may renew ur contract every 6 months till u spend 6 years on the job ...I don't know why we see contract job as bad thing in Nigeria, even for developed countries na contract job dem dey offer na the money be koko..by the way who say school no dey stop people any how? except government schools... My brother go and take ur SFH job, my candid advice, many people dey wet dey find that job u re joking with

What is the last price? And what are the issues with the vehicle?

Thanks bro for your analysis, i really appreciate...what Volvo S60 2005 Model? What is your take on it....i will really appreciate your input...thanks

Y1nka:



I planned to by but had to respond to this thread.. 500k is half a million naira, and there are PLENTY options in that budget. The only issue will be selecting the RIGHT OPTION.


I’m not a car Guru, but I’ve owned some over the years, and out of maybe love for cars, youthful exuberance or business mind, I’ve driven some, (and experienced 5 as my own).

Here’s my 10 cent.


1- Stick to cars with cheap parts & easy to fix mechanics: common cars that you are running away from are your best bet because sellers have their parts everywhere base on demand. With 500k budget, u don’t want to be requesting for parts from china!!! Do you?

2- please compromise, right now delete your love for a particular style or particular car. You want to buy logically- that is : an affordable practical car, with less issues. Not buy emotionally: that is- the kind of car you like, or you feel it is good!

3- shell out some change for an auto expert, usually a good mechanic. It s your first car, you know almost nothing yet about it, and buying a lemon car is far more easier than reselling it , or worse managing it !

4- know the budget, usually before buying car, TAKE YOUR TIME, know the cars that fit you budget, and choose the one slightly higher than your budget (let’s say 700-750k) then bargain down. You’ll be surprised. Also to know gross worth.. i use jiji to check price (may or may not actually by from there) i just check. Be careful with online markets also (overly priced, trust issues, avoiding buying car theft).


5- cars that may fit your range :


MOST MANUAL cars between 2000-2007. (Sold my hyundai elantra 2009 uber ed for 800- very clean).

Incase auto is your choice, please pick from

-TOYOTA
-GOLF
-HONDA (civic/city only).
-Hyundai (check for ac issues)
-KIA (check for electrical or AC issues).

Cars to avoid,

HONDA (accord series)
Most NISSANS
Ford and other cars.

I hope this is of help.

Good luck buying.
