How to fix Range Rover will not accelerate problem?

A middle aged man visited my car repair shop yesterday. The man drove a 2011 Range Rover, which was with 46,000 miles on it. He told me that his Range Rover would not response when he tried to accelerate, and sometimes the problem would come with an illuminated Check Engine Light.
After hearing this, I realized that there may be an electric fault with the car. In most cases, an illuminated Check Engine Light and an acceleration problem could indicate to engine breakdown, which you should definitely pay attention to. If a system trouble came up, the car computer would usually record the error history. So I connected the vehicle to a professional OBD2 tool for Land Rover, JLR mangoose, to read fault codes.
About half an hour later, the car diagnotic tool gave me three trouble codes: P010F, P023D and P011C. They mean Mass or Volume Air Flow Sensor A/B Correlation, Engine MAP-Turbo-Supercharger Boost variation and Charge Air Temperature / Intake Air Temperature Correlation respectively.
Accroding to the trouble codes, there was a big chance that the problem was in the air intake system. So I disassembled the air filter, and found it was dirty. Then I checked two intake manifold absolute pressure sensors and two air flow sensors, which were dirty, too.
I told the car owner about this, and he confessed that he rarely maintain the vehicle. This could be the reason that contributed to the acceleration problem and Check Engine Light. So I cleaned the intake manifold absolute pressure sensors and the air flow sensors, replaced the air filter and then cleared the trouble codes with the auto diagnotic tool. The vehicle could work normally then.

Right/proper selection on engine oil Have a check!

Do you know you choose the right/proper engine oil before? No worry. Here are showing some aspects and data to have your engine oil checked.
You could have a check on its oil additives, viscosity ratings and classification codes.

What oil additives function in engine oil? It is to assist the engine oil to keep car engine cool, clean, corrosion-free and refiners blend in various additives.

Mainly two types of viscosity ratings: single viscosity and multi-viscosity oil. Oil quality determines its ability to flow and oil is rated and identified by its viscosity.

In this part, you should have an idea that almost cars are designed to run multi-viscosity oil. Here is a sings of W, the lower the number, the thinner the oil and the more easily it flows and the better performance in cold weather.
Therefore you could have a check on your engine oil. For example, 5W-30 can be used in old car models or even select higher level oil for them; 10W-40 is with viscosity-temperature characteristics, not only doing well in both cold and hot temperature, but also doing well in starting engine under cold weather; 5w-40 better for compact cars, its quality is enough for daily use and 15W-40 or 10W-40 is for new cars.

Three oil classification codes: API starburst symbol, API donut symbol for gasoline engine oil, and API donut symbol for diesel engine oil.
Right/proper selection on engine oil? Have a check according to above listed aspects. Besides, chinasinoy.net informs you have a good malignance on engine too.

Man, 50, survives being trapped in blizzard for 2 days

A Chinese man surnamed Yang survived a 72 hours trapped in his snow-covered car in North China without any food in his car. His trick to surviving: always keep a tire inflator in your car.

As heavy snow blanketed some parts in North China, several drivers and passengers were reported stuck in the snow. So did the 50-year-old. He was found in a forest in Heilongjiang Province yesterday. Temperatures dropped as low as minus 23 degrees.
Yang was trapped in his car when he was on his way to his nephews home on Wednesday morning. "I was about to attend my nephews wedding about 70 kilometers away from my house. When I drove through a forest, I had a flat tire accidently. I tried to boost my horsepower and kept on driving, but my vehicle did not work anymore."
In the forest, there was no signal, so that Mr. Yang could not even call for help. In first 24 hours, he tried to stay warm under a blanket in the back seat of the car, waiting for some pass-by to help him out.
"To survive the ordeal, I ate snow for water and stayed in my car all the time to conserve energy."said Yang.
When asked if he was upset at that time, Yang said No because while the snow was continuing to pile up around him, the first thing he remember was not to panic, otherwise, he would consume more energy due to anxious mood. "Keep assuring yourself that you can make it through this crisis as long as you remain clear headed."
After 68 hours of waiting, Yang found a man walking towards him. It seemed the man did not notice him. He caught the mans attention by continuously hitting on his car door to make noise sound.
The man finally found him. The man surnamed Chu was a convenience shop owner 50 meters away. Yang then bought a portable Tire Inflator Tool 100 PSI from Chu. Chu helped him to fixe his tire and showed him how to go out the forest.
Yang arrived home yesterday.

What you need when programming car keys?

Auto key matching is very familiar to people owning cars, for they may have experienced in prepare a car key. However, they may have not so such idea on what needs when programming car keys on their own.
Two situations could be taken into consideration. One is you are owning car keys, and the other is that you lost all keys. Actually, both situations need a tool, and that is auto key programmer.
Drivers with car key:
In this way, drivers just buy an auto key programmer, and a blank key, just copying old car key data to new bland key. That is all.
Losing keys:
In this case, there is higher requirement on car key programmer which should have the function of match key when drivers lose all keys. Here take SBB key programmer for example. First step is to connect sbb 16 pin cables to vehicle OBD II port, the programmer could copy pin code from vehicle IMMO dump/EEPROM of the car. And next is to write the key data to bland key. Finally plug key to the vehicle key hole and turn on ignition.

Of course, different vehicles models have the different car key matching methods, especially to BMW and Benz. During its programming, it cannot be just for copying and writing. BMW IMMO system is EWS and CAS. Old BMW is equipped with EWS, and ak90 is a classic programmer; and as to CAS system, bmw ak300 is a good option. Benz key making cannot do in the way of key to key or just match via obd2 port, and their professional tools are like ak500 series and so on.
Apart from specific car key programmers for specific car brand, here I am listing you several comprehensive key makers, including we mentioned above SBB, and others such as ad900, t300, MVP, M8, Zed bull and so on. You could access to detailed information about them online searching, and here I am recommending you to have a link to chinasinoy.net.
Besides, when select blank key, vehicle brand, key shape, frequency (MHZ), how many buttons and key chip ID and compatible car key programmer should be taken into consideration.
