Hello gurus in the house, yesterday, I drove my car to a location, parked and after about 15mins, I came back, started the car but refused to start, borrowed battery to start it (it worked) but went off while on a stop and move traffic

Tried to borrow battery to start it again, this time it refused to start but all lights was on, someone said the kick starter isn’t moving, he helped hitting the kick start with a long iron, after this was done (hitting the kick starter) the car starts again,

This morning I tried starting it, still didn’t work,
Pls is the problem the kick starter or something else, kindly help me out bosses, thanks

luvinhubby and all pls I need your input

Hello.

I understand that Luvinghubby has already drawn your attention to the drive shaft.
It could be your ball t too (I would put this top of the list).
My Accord once gave knocking sounds on turning the steering, which was worsening with time. When I examined the front end, I narrowed it down to the ball t. I replaced ball ts and knocking sounds disappeared.
Cheers!
so i took it to the mechanic so it was found that my brakepad left it position now it has placed well and the noise is gone.Thank you all

What car model?

As it's been said, the problem is your kick starter.

To fix it, you have two options:

1) A good electrician can remove the starter and inspect. Most of the time, it is the 'brushes' in it that are worn and they can be replaced. This is cheaper than buying another starter. If it is the coil that's damaged, it may be difficult to repair.

2) Buy a replacement kick starter.

Good luck.

My 2007 DC shows check engine light is on ABS and a spanner sign light is on ,on the dash board .Car gurus what does it mean.furthermore the previous change the engine oil for two times with total 20w50 oil. I want to service the engine is advisable to use the recommended Honda 5w20 or I should stick to the total 20w50 which the previous had used?

The specified oil for your vehicle is 5W20 or 5W30, reversing to it now maybe quite expensive for you.
A scan will show the reason for engine light & a bad a ABS sensor responsible for ABS light

What is water doing in your radiator in the first place?

Car abuse!!

The water probably has contaminants, causing it to foam.

Have you ruled out a slow transmission fluid leak?

Commonly from poorly torqued drain plug or solenoid bolts.

Lastly, transmission may be on its way out.

How much did you give him to buy gear oil? That will give you an idea of the oil he bought.
