radautoworks: When a bunch of things go bad at once na village people be that. I can live with a dented bumper, a bad TPMS, a bad windscreen washer sensor. I'll be worried if I have 1 bad shock but can still live with it fora while. So far safety and driveability is not compromised. I hate to see a check engine, ABS or airbag light up on my dash. |

2006 Toyota Engine lights came up with error codes P0420 P0430 P0446 P0793 |
Re: What Maintenance Item Are You Postponing? by Nobody: 8:06am On Nov 04, 2018 |
Sankabson: I have something similar going on in my 4Runner. "IF" the leak is coming from the rack itself then you can either rebuild (most of them especially if it's factory unit) or replace. For N30K I will assume that you are going to be getting a "Toks". I am not in favor of toks parts at all especially a part that will take lots of labor to R and R. Please don't start pouring thick glob or snake oil into the system. 1 Like |

Radiator is leaking....na so I dey pour water anywhere I go. Was broken by Kasim working on my AC. Now AC is chilling but coolant is leaking. No time to fix it. We are blessed with very wonderful mechanics in this country who will always fix one thing and spoil another. 10 Likes |

My BMW e46 speeds normal,but when on still if I apply more pressure on the pedal it will come out with white smoke. After that nothing like smoke even if am on motion and on high speed nothing like smoke. I do top my oil virtually every week,because the oil do go low. |

waledeji: Use oil treatment for some time it will fix it. And use more of thicker engine oil than the one for new engines |
Re: What Maintenance Item Are You Postponing? by Sankabson(m): 9:48am On Nov 04, 2018 |
EgunMogaji:I don't even have the fund to replace the rack now. And I'm spending so much on the steering fluid which cost 1K daily basis. The Mechanic adviced that I can use normal engine oil ( 200naira) and he gave some oil too ( it seems like a used Gear oil). Just got the main time. I just hope I don't cause more problems or harm to my poor Car. This Economy dey somehow low for now.. Sanusi.. 1 Like |

I am driving around town with 2 critical problems. I made 2 attempts to find my cracked radiator plastic top but found a new 1inch longer plastic and a warped toks both which i rejected. My parts supplies guy in Abj says he has it but am just too lazy for this job. One of the reasons i am lazy about this simple job is the fact that i will have to top like half a quart to my ATF after fixing the radiator. Top the ATF or change is what i have not decided. Water shorts about a litre after 3 days city commute or a 300km return trip. No over heating so far and my eyes are glued to the temp gauge. The second is an ABS issue after greasing both front drive shaft and hub bearings. I really do not know where the problem is but i have a non permanent ABS light. It goes off like once in 2 days for like 3mins but return again. When light goes off, the ABS activates on every braking action no matter how light, no matter what condition except when still. So throughout the 3mins the brake pulsates each time i hit the brakes the light will come on for a day or 2. 1 Like
