Good evening bosses..My Toyota Camry 2006 big daddy keeps shorting oil..I use Mobil super 2000 5w-30 which is the recommended oil but I still experience oil shortage after 5 liters I bought recently. I still bought 1 Litre to top it up…just bought the car from America 4 months ago..pls your suggestions would be highly appreciated


Please what is the best oil to use since Mobil goes short everytime before service ?

Guess your engine is 4 cylinder 2azfe which is know for oil burn.

Either you switch to 20w50 engine oil or change to new piston rings and valve stem seals using original parts.

Greetings all

I drive a Toyota Camry 07 and the cooling fans only come on intermittently and is only consistent when the AC is on but recently my electrician has been advising that I should allow him connect it to be running continuously else one day I'll suffer over heating.

I need professional advice on this.

Thank you

Don't ever patronize that mechanic again.

Bro just manage am like that o. Except you want to ring the engine. Ringing may not last another 6 months and it will start burning oil again. Changing the engine is not also a guarantee. 2AZ FE engine is known for oil burn.

Please I need your experienced input, I have a 2008 toyota corolla, as I was driving this afternoon I noticed steam coming from the bonnet, AC was on and we were in hold up, I noticed the fan was not running as I opened the bonnet, I called my mechanic who told me it's the fan, immediately we went to change the fan (sic) mechanism, after fitting the fan it still didn't work, we have to get a rewire who discovered that the fan fuse is burnt, we also noticed that the radiator was leaking water from the side.

My confusion now is that the mechanic and the guy that fixed the fan is saying (1) I have to get a 2 cell radiator as the single cell is small for my engine or (2) they weld the bad radiator which will serve for sometimes

Please I need your input for best decision to make please

Okay. Thank you

Don't pour any stop-leak anything into your engine o..

Stop-leaks are for minor radiator leaks not engine leaks

Is owing a car the requisite of being a good vehicle technician you goofed again.

Show evidence of anybody that has come to my shop to repair vehicle and claims they were exploited.

Good day Nairalanders

*Toyota Camry 07*
After topping engine oil, mechanic mistakenly over guage but check engine light disappeared.
After a week check engine light comes on. Engine oil still above guage.
Should I drain a little oil out?
Could something else be responsible for the check engine light coming on.
Thank you all in anticipation.

Good evening guys,

Please can I use "Abro Automatic transmission fluid" as power steering fluid. Just noticed mine is totally empty and my steering was making a noise.

My mechanic recommended it but I'm still sceptical.

My Car is a corolla 2006

Thanks.
