KINGreignn: Good morning Boss, So I queried my mechanic and he confirmed that he used Oando transmission fluid. The holts I attached was for the power steering. Do I still need to change the gear fluid or check if the gear has further faults. Thanks |

nurey:Now you are making it sound like the sludge is good for the engine. I'm really confused sir. Please enlighten me. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nurey(m): 3:31am On Mar 18, 2020 |
Themandalorian: Sludge is not good for the engine but when an engine already has sludge due to the use of wrong oil weight, it is better to stick with the wrong oil which doesn't have bleach than to switch to synthetic with bleach. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Themandalorian: 1:19pm On Mar 18, 2020 |
nurey:But the bleach will remove the sludge won't it? Or is too late then? |

Please am in need of the 2013 mazda cx-9 front grill and headlamp. Anyone have for sale or where I can get it, please call, WhatsApp or just reply to this message here. Thanks |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nurey(m): 3:33pm On Mar 18, 2020 |
Themandalorian: You are confusing things, to get rid of sludge you have to open up the engine and sometimes dismantle it and scrape off sludge as much as you can not to use bleach to wash it down there by blocking lubricant pathways, oil pump and valves which is tantamount to engine failure. I hope you get it now. Besides you can't throughly know the sludge level of an engine until you remove valve cover. |

Ace16: If you see wires flying around in the engine bay, do not buy. Or rather pay 10k for inspection. The 10k is applicable on any 3 cars of your choice 1 Like |

My car(a Chevrolet optra) is very hot inside, when I drive for some few hours the interior gets very hot even when the windows are down. Please what can I do?? I always feel very uncomfortable driving. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nurey(m): 10:31am On Mar 19, 2020 |
Stewart883: Check the AC/ventilation settings, you could have the ventilation in recycle settings and AC knob at heat so heat from the engine is coming in or Your firewall has holes check engine and interior firewall for rust and holes. Also your undercarriage |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Stewart883(m): 10:57am On Mar 19, 2020 |
nurey: Thank you very much. I will check them up with a mechanic and revert. Someone mentioned flushing the radiator |

DAutoDiagnosis: Thanks.. is that your job? If yes, where are you located? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nurey(m): 11:08am On Mar 19, 2020 |
Stewart883: Interior that is the cabin area where passengers sit has nothing to do with radiator. The individual think maybe you meant engine |
