nurey:


like I said gasket job wasn't done well. you already stated 2 symptoms
1. milky watery engine oil
2. water escaping in exhaust.

why you don't have a hard start I don't know. Oya let him redo the gasket this time following the recommended procedure and utilising OEM gasket

Sorry Nurey,
If I may ask you,
Are you an Automobile Engineer?
Because that's my field but I know almost nothing compare to you...

I didn't study anything related to automobile in school or even engineering.

I love cars and the love drove me to know more about them. If you put more effort you will even be better than me cause you know the basics and I don't.

Good evening house

why are Nigerian used Nissan cars so cheap?

why are Nigerian used Nissan cars so cheap?

because Nigerians don't buy nissan vehicles except their compact sedan used for transportation on some parts of the country. When demand is low prices will be low. one of the laws of diminishing returns

The 2002-2007 had gear issues in some specimens so gear failure was common also it came only with a CVT transmission which is very sensitive to fluid wrong or fake fluid usage means replacement.

Then the 4wd had issues too with transfer case or so. Its a luxurious vehicle on its own but doesn't like an iota of abuse or manage manage repair

Tokunbo is expected to have little fixes here and there, used is not new. Scan the car first and with code gotten you will fix the issue. Ensure you collect codes from the scan technician not a bill of fix.

yes you can ask please also let me have your car model and possibly engine type. e.g mazda xedos 2002model with 2.5L V6.

Mazda 602 or so. I use it for transport. I don't have any idea of the other informations, I will check the papers later. There's this noise the the is making and the mech said its the bolt joint or so. I want to ask if its the bolt joint.

if the sound isn't coming from the engine no need for engine type. I think what you mean is mazda 626 let's know the year then you talk about joint probably ball joint cause I have never heard of bolt joint.

Also sound cannot be diagnosed easily unless a physical inspection is done.

but you can narrow it down by telling us when the sound is pronounced eg making a bend turn, passing uneven road, at a certain speed of xkm/h etc.

thanks dear Mazda 626. Yes at the bolded

Oyindidi:

The bolded you showed making bend turn usually more pronounced in U-turn the sound of kah kah kah is caused by worn out shaft water and sand must have entered and the Boris are now spoilt. You will change the shaft and grease the replacement.

The sound you hear on uneven roads depends it could be bushings (rubber paddings) depending on car type they are sometimes many, could be bad vehicle linkage, could be absorbers, it can also be exhaust hitting under carriage. Only physical inspection can pinpoint.

if you don't trust your mechanic seek opinion of 2 other mechanics also if you have a man at home (am guessing you are really a female) let him help you confirm what it is if he knows about cars. could be your neighbour or fellow transporters.

This particular car is giving me headache after the last driver. I will change the absorbers. The driver takes the car to other states without my notice. I am using a new Mech, I no trust the other ones. oga is not always on ground but I have a neighbor that supervised the work. I'm not always on ground too

I need Your recommendations on Almera Tino for a first timer, which year is best, i preferred manual transmission. What are the Cons and Pros? . Like how much can it cost?

The only known complaint is its sluggish acceleration, it is same drive train as the N16 nissan almera I used before. the 1.8L engine is very common among nissan compact sedans. Just ensure to have cam and crank shaft sensor extra when travelling long distance cause this two can fail at anytime and you get furcked in the ass big time

parts cheap, body doesn't tolerate hits. It is prone to deshaping. Please no electrical abuse. As for cost I don't know try olx to get a price range.

Mr nurey, please what could cause gear oil leakage? The mech changed the seal yet its leaking. Help a sister biko

Every gear has a pan for holding oil either the bottom plate (pan) has reached its service life or he didn't use the right seal for the job.
Also you have to know where the oil is leaking from, it may not be the bottom plate could be leaking from the connection of the gear to the engine. Or the gear unit itself. Your case is still physical inspection try to check it out yourself
