I did not expect to see on this site a post about cars. But I recently very fond of this brand of car! I recently went on a business trip to Tampa. My company rented me a car at Payless Tampa airport. When I screamed my car it was a brand new Mercedes and I was very impressed with this car. I drove a Mercedes for the first time in my life and since then I seriously think about buying a new car for myself |

Go for rx350 lexus 2010 or acura zdx. I have been using my rx350 2010 for over one year without any major repair,just oil change and it also have a good grand clearance,i do not need to worry so much about how bad a road is. Zdx is ok too but i don't know much about the maintenance aspect. Lexus Es 350 2012 is very fine and share the same engine and gear box with the RX 2010 and you will likely spend same amount on maintenance on both vehicles,i'm planning selling my es330 due to high cost of maintenance to get a corolla (have used it for 4yrs now). But considering the nature of our roads i will never consider lexus es350 and also people will not value it much because of our "Jeep" mentality in this country. For me RX 350 2010 is the real deal. gigzezo: |

Is it advisable to use Abro Fuel Injector Cleaner on my Car

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by neyo4real(m): 6:39pm On Jul 09, 2019 |
@ikenna etal Hello Sir. Good day to you. I use a 1999 toyota camry. After flushing my radiator some months back at a car wash, the water pressure from the nozzle destroyed the cells of the radiator (due to weakness i guess) So I had to change the complete unit (inclusive of fan and thermoswitch ). But I later observed the fuel consumption began to increase and the temperature gauge was always extremely low even with AC switched on irrespective of distance I travel and intensity of heat from sun. Met few kazeems who told me ''Bros, your engine go last well well becos him head go dey kool well well''. But as car user, and literate, I know this is purely abnormal and my online research, coupled with one of your responses states that if a car does not operate at the normal temperature, it would result in reduced fuel economy and the engine will wear out. So, I embarked a DIY, surveyed the engine bay and realized the fan runs consistently making the engine over-cool due to disconnected thermoswitch. So what did was to plug the connector and Lo and behold, the temperature stays at normal level because the fans would only operate when the temperature reaches its apex. But, the challenge here is this:Having connected the thermo-switch, I did a personal observation with the bonnet open while the car was idling. I noticed that when ever the temperature reaches it's limit, the fan operates at perfect and full speed. But once I switch on the AC, the speed reduces. This has been a major challenge for me using the AC. The AC system is excellent. Thought it was the AC unit not until i took it for an inspection that I confirmed it is very perfect. The compressor was loosed...assessed by a highly reliable engineer and certified it is in perfect condition. He however advised I consult a good engineer as regards the reduction in fan speed when ever the AC is working. According to him, the AC system requires good suction of Air through the condenser whenever its working. Took it for scan, the following are the results P0105 P0401 and P0/1..... (not sure) but its meant bad downstream o2 sensor But asides these results, I am still concerned about the reduction in speed of the cooling fan when the AC is operating Sir, please advise. Is this normal? Regards 1 Like |
