Guys please I need your advise. My Camry 2005 is shorting oil rapidly. It doesn't smoke, no visible oil leakage in the engine bay. Just did oil change last Saturday and I've done about 150 miles since then and the oil is already below the guage. I use synthetic oil 5w-30. Where else can the oil possibly be leaking from please.

Pls where can I scan (and possibly repair) a 2012 Rav 4 at a good rate, at Sangotedo area of Lagos ? The “maintenance required” light has been coming up whenever we start the car for the past four days Oil , filter and fuel pump was changed recently by a road side mechanic. Cc GAZZUZZ , DukeNija |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by kingreign(m): 10:54am On Apr 09, 2022 |
nwauwa: Wait wait wait!!! Is it because of maintenance required light you changed these things? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nwauwa(m): 11:22am On Apr 09, 2022 |
kingreign:It’s my mums car. She changed oil and filter as advised by her mechanic. As for fuel pump, she changed it because the car stopped on the road, she called her mechanic and he said it’s fuel pump and changed it and next day, maintenance required light has been blinking once she starts the car. Do not be sarcastic because if I knew, I would not be here asking. |

nwauwa: Go on youtube and watch videos on how to reset the maintenance light.. It is easy to do. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by kingreign(m): 11:45am On Apr 09, 2022 |
nwauwa: Turn on the ignition to allow all the instrument panel lift come on, then locate the odometer toggle button and toggle it till Trip A, keep the button pressed down turn off the ignition and then turn on the ignition whilst still holding the odometer button. You should notice series of dashes (- - - - - -) on the odometer when it clears, the odometer should go to (0 0 0 0 0 ) then return the mileage display. This shows you’ve reset the maintenance required warning. 4 Likes |

Hello house, please i use an hyundai accent 2012, anytime i startup my car and shift to Drive mode the gear will automatically shift to 3 with a very slow movement, to climb bumps na issue, I’ll have to restart the engine most cases it works from gear one which is good. I changed my gear oil just yesterday. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by frebor(m): 8:33pm On Apr 09, 2022 |
Godsown0: Were these symptoms there before you changed the oil.? Which oil you use? Snap the keg let's see. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Godsown0: 12:02am On Apr 10, 2022 |
frebor:Yes Atf Dextron |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by DukeNija(m): 3:55am On Apr 10, 2022 |
its Not |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by olumzzz(m): 5:11am On Apr 10, 2022 |
Godsown0:Did your car manual stated that you should use atf dextron? Maybe it's abro you used sef. Check your car manual for the recommended ATF |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by frebor(m): 5:33am On Apr 10, 2022 |
Godsown0: You should have scanned the vehicle to ascertain what the issue was before changing the oil. The old oil, if e never turn black, would have been better than this new oil you put. Hyundai recommends Sp-4, alternatively if you find original Dextron VI. And na 7 litres you need, so bad oil wey no even Guage fit land you extra wàhálà. 1 Like

frebor:Changing the oil was not a bad idea cus i heard the old has never been changed before, i think i used 4 or 5lt, boss do i need to top it up or what do u suggest? |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Godsown0: 6:58am On Apr 10, 2022 |
olumzzz:I’ll, but it has been done already what do u suggest i do?. Btw the issue has been there before i changed the oil, I cleaned my seals while changing the oil. Most of the time i have to hold on to the break tight before shifting gear (if no jack sound heard) it will work from one, thats how i used it yesterday |
