Every one owns a diagnostic tool ranging from different functionality but not everyone knows how to use one. What was the scan result for this scan carried out. Answer these questions

1) does the oil light flickers when driving

2) does it stay permanently on when driving

3) does the light come up on first igntion

4) when you say can't hold power do you hear any unusual sound when driving?

I hope it's not worth am thinking

winzy:


1. It's comes and goes before changing the oil.. Now I don't see it again cuz it barely can be driven.
2. No
3. Yea
4. It's hard to be driven barely notice no light

mayor2013:


What do you mean by it's hard to be driven. Are you saying car can barely move

winzy:


It doesn't hold power... If you start the car... It will go off or else you lr leg is on the accelerator.

Where is your location

Good day, people
This problem started when it was noticed that the engine oil light came on, it was weird cuz oil changed last year December or so.,
Added a liter to the engine, then took it to be changed [oil] while going there... It started this problem, if you crank the car on... It won't hold poor... It starts but doesn't hold power.
Took it to mechanic, not his work.
Took it to a renowned electrician, using his diagnostic tools... He said it's the crankshaft sensor... We have changed the sensor and still the same issue still prevail.
Please help !

your engine has a sludge problem.
currently your timing settings are stuck in a retarded position.

Clogged VVTI solenoids and oil passges.

I might be wrong, but that's where I'll look first.

winzy:


Something like this was said by the mechanic... So, what's the way forward? Boss

no mind the autocorrect I typed RETARDEO position it showed slow

Way forward? Confirm that what I said is correct.
Open valve cover and take a look inside engine

You are correct... Mechanic complained of this when changing the oil.

the engine is bleeped up sir.

Try this

Drain engine oil.

Pour 4 liters of diesel (yes I said diesel) pour it into where there should be engine oil.

Start the engine, leave it to run for 10mins idling.

After 10mins drain diesel, open oil pan, clean the filter, open VVTI solenoids (if dual open both) clean strainers. Replace oil filter.

Pour fresh oil and use car.

Repeat these steps like 2-3times withing 5days.

Upsides, it might work

Down sides, it might start smoking.

AutoElectNG:


What do you say about adding ATF to the engine oil because of its detergent capabilities?

Some people swear by it.
