Service am Golf - Diesel- und Luftfilter gewechselt. Nun noch der Partikelfilter, und am Wochenende noch Öl und Ölfilter.
Später noch, mit Unterstützung vom Nachbarn, die Federn der Hinterachse erneuern. Da ist eine die Tage gebrochen und dadurch nun a weng zu kurz.

Преодолел лень-забывчивость и заехал в автомагазин купить свечной ключик. Дома есть, но короткий. Итак, вашему вниманию старые свечи! (Не романтика, не тот вариант 🙂)
* 95 бензин и практически всегда одна заправка
* накатано 58000 (много, знаю, как обычно лень было за ключиком заехать)Ваше мнение, автомеханики? То, что электроды уже сильно покушало, вижу. Что ещё подскажите?

It’s become more clear to me that it’s a kindness to have the opportunity to be kind and I was glad to help R.
The original $4000 estimate R got for the timing chain repair was absurdly high.
While it seems likely that running dirty oil in this tiny engine can increase the risk for this problem I’m also disturbed at how neatly this also fits into an effective emotional manipulation.

They had a nice heated garage and quickly replaced the part for $120 and the problematic OBDC code was gone!
I cleared all recorded problem codes and then need to drive the car for awhile so the internal computer would generate valid data for the emissions test. Needed several cold starts including one overnight and at least 15m on the highway.
It passed inspection today and we swapped cars.

The part cost $110 at the local auto parts store, $40 at rockauto, and there was a no-label brand on Amazon for just $16. I got another family member with Prime to order the $16 part.
I looked inquisitively at the tiny engine and with the help of some YouTube videos found the sensor I wanted to replace. But our driveway is very icy and muddy and since we don’t have a garage I decided to take the part with me to my local garage.

Researching it seemed the tiny Honda Fit engines needed frequent oil changes and that timing chain problems were common for engines that regularly ran with dirty oil and threw the P0341 code.
But … if the timing chain was that loose often the engine will run roughly especially shedding acceleration.
Replacing just the camshaft position sensor looked easy and I thought this made sense to try first.

That seemed like way too much to me and we decided I would take her car to another shop that I used for a second opinion. They estimated the cost for replacing the timing chain at $1200-1400 so I swapped cars with R and we made an appointment for next week.
So far there had been no independent measurement that indicated the timing chain was stretched/loose and needed replacement.
The engine ran fine and accelerated smoothly and normally.

R took it to a local repair and muffler shop and they told her that her oil was very dirty and needed to be changed and that if she hadn’t regularly been changing her oil that P0341 meant her timing chain had stretched and needed to be replaced. Said it would cost $4000 but it made more sense to be a low mileage used engine in for $5000. She had them change her oil and contacted me.

Helped my daughter with a puzzling auto repair she needed solved to get her l car inspected!
R is my middle daughter and she had a 2016 Honda Fit. For various reasons it’s been hard for her to follow up on an emissions inspection failure.
The failure was throwing a P0341 code, Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance Bank 1 or Single

NYC street parking is basically a contact sport. If you needed auto body repair in New York this week, what matters most: paint match, turnaround time, or price? Any shops you actually trust? https://autobahncollisionny.com/auto-body-repair-new-york/

Looks like the #Renault #Scenic 2 is leaking oil.
I was able to confirm my gearbox reverse light switch repair and gearbox oil change are not the source of this (gearbox still full, lowest spot of the engine is just at the gearbox darin plug thats why the oil goes there).
Cleaned the accessible bottom part of the engine, found that the gaskets of the oil stick failed so ordered a new one and found out that the oil is actually coming right from the top of the engine. To access this part, a special nut and a new air inlet gasket are required. Waiting for those now...
According to some online sources, the screws that hold on the cover are not sealed/tend to leak around the screw head. So just removing one at a time, cleaning the surface and reassembling them with a bit of "gasket maker" could fix this. Cleaning is useful anyways to find out where exactly the oil comes from if this does not fix it.
