Whoever told u it's pcv needs to be shat.
It's either bad valve stem oil seals.
Or stuck piston rings.

Before they spoil your car

If it's white smoke.....coolant leak...probably the car did a medium overheating...burnt gasket..
Remove two spark plugs.
If they are white like new ..then coolant leak

If they are black.....oil leak

If they ar tan /brown..normal firing well
If they are powdery black/carbon fouled/dry black.. bad injectors or dirty injector. Maf sensor.02 sensor.etc

No make meko scatter your car

Hello all, I will be buying my first car by December. I am considering the Toyota camry 2011 XLE or the 2012-2014 camry. My budget is about 10m - 11m.

First question is, are the benefits of the 2012 - 2014 camry over the 2011 model worth hustling for more money to add or I can go for the 2011 model and be rest assured that I am settled for the next 3 - 5 years as regards car?

Second question. I was talking to my neighbour who has a Toyota corolla and he said he faces challenges with pot holes because of how low his car is. Does the Toyota camry 2011 or 2012 - 2014 model also face challenge with ground clearance and potholes? Will it be more advisable to go for a Venza because of the better ground clearance?

I am not considering the Lexus Rx because I want a car that has good fuel economy

Well averagely it is.my neighbour has the exact type qnd been driving it for years.tho he is an old man but never seen the car break down. Just that ts body is light and any dent makes the car look older.its an aluminium 4plugs engine and hates overheating.

Then na inside job

Tenses:
This is a new one.

I never hear nor see this kind thing before.

I remember one time I boarded a bus from Onitsha to Nsukka. The driver was driving recklessly like his trying to imitate fast and furious after seeing the movie.

Almost all the passengers were against him. Some hefty looking guys even tried to beat him at a check point.

It took the policemen to calm the tension. Then we resumed our journey. The passengers were still boiling but something baffled me. The once belligerent driver became so calm and didn't utter a single word.

I knew at that point that he's about to do something crazy. I just guard myself well well.

It wasn't up to 30 minutes drive that all the passengers got the hint.

The driver was driving in a snail 🐌 like pace on the highway.

Iswearugud Mr. Tortoise would have had a field day against us on a 100m race.

Passengers wey dey foam all kept quiet with only the occasional murmurings by those highly irritated.

See as keke, bicycle, barrow pushers just dey over take us for highway.

The thing pain me no be small. I follow ginger the driver when he dey over speed I no go lie.

After that day I no dey follow drivers drag again. If you drive wetin no go I go just jejely come down if it's convenient, if it's not convenient, I go begin recite "holy Mary pray for us, as it was in the begin".

Caked. In terms of the pustons not gettin stuck again due to bad fuel and oil.or the piston rings got stuck and its no longer expanding and wiping off the oil or bad oil valve stem seals inside top cylinder

Gotocourt:
That's if the pistons have not caked.

I suffered this , just ringed my engine as I don't have 1M+

Just wait small.dru23 wud storm here wirh his advert.

Just buy from Ebay or amazon.dollar don drop. Out of 10 accredited or mobil franchise outlets spread across the federation.8 out of 10 are all selling adulterated oil with total too. Infact nigeria is a shit country.i stopped buying keg two years ago. I buy the drum for 300k and it would finish around March next year.thick original total oul direct from total.not the dilling station. If I wan flush engine.i budget 18k...5k to cheap roadside mineral oil..2k for diesel and balance for engine flush and 3 oil filters.by rhe third flush ..my engine oul is almost goldish b4 I turn in my total oil 5litres from the plastic drum...too many fakes .hope say u don flush your engine reach 3 times b4 the piston rings go gum the piston. That's if the pistons have not caked. But before u cast mobil.have u checked for oil leaks from sump areas...timing belt area..exhaust connector towards engine area.

Not healthy

It des.on my previous car which uses a 3 way catalyst. The two at the front were not prese t fron day one and my fuel consumption was terrible.but after I installed it.i noticed difference in about 30% fuel saving without ac and hard acceleration

I started having g strands of grey hair on my beards I 2020.now I have up to 15 strands of grey hair on my beards at 38m not bothered.hardship

Yea the consumption is massive I the west. To the owoe mi dar collectors,the npf,they love rachet so why won't dey take satchet. Haahaha

They might later die of complications after 3 days. Best is to foce them okro and at least 45 corns with a bottle of cold bitter leaf water

His clients were the mugus who paid him..and those mugu also stole from other people. Circles of dirty money. He no get problem na naija.how wish na yankee.he for collect 100 years to life ......

Then later on one day I saw one guy running with a Nike air shocks sneakers on a treadmill.the flowing week ibatarted seeing two of my seniors on that same model of sneakers before I knew it.it was 50cent get rich or dying trying album.....I miss the early 2000.from 2003 rap took another dimension b4 skinny mumbling rappers of today came and spoilt everything.

Blockhead

U lie a lot.ehy are you bothered about someone else property and u know so much about it codes. Ogbeni na your car.stop lying

The person who calls himself Ryan Automotive is not mentally okay.avoid taking advice from him cos hez a blockhead and rely on ai and chat gpt for answers.imagine someone doing such a thing.i would end up adding more problems to the cat.better use your brain

Stop postin false info. Stop using chatgpt

RyanAutomotive:
Good morning sir.

Vehicle: Honda Accord 2010 V6
Concern: Suspected intake or exhaust manifold leak. No fault codes, no rough idle, but noticeable change in exhaust steam after catalytic converter work.

Let’s address this properly before dismantling the engine or replacing parts unnecessarily.


* Understanding the Concern

From your explanation:

• No Check Engine Light.
• No stored fault codes.
• Engine idles smoothly.
• No noticeable loss of power.
• Cold-start steam and water droplets were more visible before work was carried out on the catalytic converter (CAT).
• After the CAT system repair, the steam is now much less noticeable.

Based on this information alone, I would not immediately conclude that you have an intake or exhaust manifold leak.


* Important Observation

Many vehicle owners mistake the white steam and water droplets seen during a cold morning start for a fault.

In reality, this is often normal condensation.

When the engine is cold:

• Water vapour naturally forms inside the exhaust system.
• As the exhaust heats up, the condensation exits as steam and water droplets.
• Once the exhaust reaches operating temperature, the steam disappears.

This is perfectly normal and is usually not a sign of engine damage.

The fact that the amount of steam changed after work was done on the exhaust could simply be because the exhaust system was altered or replaced, affecting how condensation exits the system.


* What Should Be Checked Now

Before concluding there is a manifold leak, I would recommend the following:

1, Inspect the Exhaust Manifold

Check for:

• Cracks.
• Broken manifold studs or bolts.
• Damaged manifold gasket.
• Carbon soot around gasket surfaces.

A leaking exhaust manifold usually leaves visible black carbon deposits.


2, Inspect the Intake Manifold

Check for:

• Vacuum leaks.
• Damaged intake manifold gasket.
• Loose manifold bolts.
• Cracked vacuum hoses.

An intake manifold leak often causes:

• Rough idle.
• Lean fuel trims.
• Hissing sound.
• Poor engine performance.

Since your engine idles smoothly and there are no fault codes, an intake leak is currently less likely, although it should still be verified.


3, Check Live Data

A professional scan tool should be used to monitor:

• Short-Term Fuel Trim (STFT).
• Long-Term Fuel Trim (LTFT).
• Oxygen sensor activity.
• Air/Fuel ratio readings.

Fuel trims can reveal small intake leaks even before a fault code is stored.


* Perform a Smoke Test

If an intake leak is suspected, a smoke machine is one of the most reliable methods of locating even very small vacuum leaks that may not be visible during a normal inspection.


* Do NOT Do This

• Do NOT replace the intake manifold gasket based on suspicion alone.
• Do NOT replace the exhaust manifold without confirming a leak.
• Do NOT assume reduced cold-start steam means something is wrong.

Proper diagnosis should always come before parts replacement.


* Professional Insight

From everything you’ve described, I am more interested in verifying whether a leak actually exists rather than assuming one does.

The absence of:

• Fault codes,
• Rough idle,
• Poor performance,
• Misfire,

makes a significant intake manifold leak less likely.

Likewise, if there is no loud ticking noise on cold start or visible carbon deposits around the exhaust manifold, an exhaust manifold leak is also less likely.

A proper inspection and live-data analysis will provide a much clearer answer than replacing components based on suspicion.

* Who Should Inspect It?

This type of diagnosis is primarily the responsibility of a qualified automotive mechanic or diagnostic technician, especially one experienced with Honda engine systems.

If repairs such as welding a cracked exhaust manifold or fabricating exhaust pipes become necessary, an exhaust specialist may also be involved.

A panel beater would generally not be responsible unless there is body damage affecting the exhaust or engine bay.


* Ryan Automotive Limited Recommendation

The next step should be a structured engine diagnostic procedure, including:

• Professional computerized diagnostic scan.
• Live fuel trim analysis.
• Intake smoke test.
• Exhaust manifold inspection.
• Vacuum system inspection.
• Physical inspection of the catalytic converter work previously carried out.

At Ryan Automotive Limited, we believe in confirming whether a leak actually exists before recommending repairs. This approach prevents unnecessary expenses and ensures the root cause is identified correctly.

If you’re within Lagos or can bring the vehicle down, Ryan Automotive Limited will be glad to carry out a comprehensive inspection and determine whether the issue is related to the intake system, exhaust system, or simply a normal operating characteristic.
