I took my car to car wash 3 days ago
After the boy wash the car finished he uses the dashboard spray he saw inside my car. I never told him to spray it oh.

He empty the full can all over my dashboard and 4 doors.

Since then my stereo has been malfunctioning. I can't play FM/music anymore. It look like more than one button is on standby. It just keep turning and switching.

I thought it will work by itself after a day or two. But it's already 2 days. I am just sad men. Driving no longer fan as music cannot be played

Is there any way I can solve this?

We can't diagnose sound online, it is a physical inspection thing. Also top cylinder might need to come off for inspection to determine what is causing sound.

thanks but i know all that. we only change the valve seal. Its the same engine i was using before. A Very silent engine. What’s likely cause of noise after valve oil seal change?

If there is tapping sound, the first mechanic no complete his job then. Nah to dey use the car like that why saving up for replacement engine.

what could be the cause of that noise? I don’t know describe the noise its. Can’t it be fix?

Leave this grammar and what you read online, follow the instructions of your mechanic he knows the work he did.

Ok. The oil I bought was mobil 1000 20w50.

Engine recommended oil 5w20.

After the rebuild, I was confused which oil to buy from 20w50 or 5w30. Because engine has been using thicker oil. And I think I bought the 20w50 because of the crankshaft because the engine has been using thinker oil and we didn’t change anything from the crankshaft like metal.

What we change was rings and valve seal, then grind the valves.

There is this noise coming from the top..
But the people that ring it told me the sound is not from the engine itself. They said to use it like that for sometime it will clear.

But yesterday i took it to another mechanic to help me check the tapping sound. The man said its from the top cylinder cup. He said it look like oil is not circulating well enough. My first time of hearing the word cup. He said i should drive it for sometime or i can top it with oil treatment it will stop.

I was thinking if to add mobile 5w30 or oil treatment will stop that noise?

Testing testing testing..
After changing the knock sensor, I enjoyed it for few days, the car move smoothly select well without sluggish.
Just yesterday as am about to overtake one car, it start to sluggish again and I Have to match it up to pick.

I was so worried and I took it to rewire and he scanned to detect that the knock sensor they changed was fake.
The code below Is what the machine saw:

P0325 knock sensor 1 circuit ( Bank 1 or single sensor

P1346 VVT sensor/ Camshaft position sensor circuit range/performance problem bank 1

The rewire now said he will buy tokunbo knock sensor that will work, but I saw some new knock sensor on JUMIA

buy tokubo knock sensor. Those new once don’t always work. Sometimes they don’t last

I Just finished installing new piston rings on my engine.

I need a work through stages to follow.

After the fix the car idles for about 6hours. And alot of fuel bunts for ring siting.

But My mechanic told me not to fire the car and to drive it gently and change the oil one week time and i most not carry load or use the AC for now.

But from online search they talk about 500/1000 miles for break-in.

Some reports said 30mins is enough for ring to sit properly.

1 week for oil change seems too short for me for to me some a
