Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by 9icetoo(m): 7:39pm On Sep 24 |
Sankabson:Go to any total filling station and buy their coolant. Leave your transmission fluid alone. Fake full naija The vibration is likely from your outer cv joint or inner shaft cv. If its the inner shaft (connected to the transmission), allow only a good workshop that is clean to perform that job. Why do you want to change your coolant anyway? 1 Like |
Car Talk / Re: 2008 Acura Mdx Vs 2008 Toyota Camry by 9icetoo(m): 8:40am On Sep 20 |
Muyesky:There is another alternative. It will cost you at least 2m to 3m to trade the acura mdx for a sound 2008-11 camry. Why not use this 2m to install CNG in your acura and enjoy the best of both worlds. CNG is cheap This will work if you live in any of the states where CNG is sold and installed. Are you in lagos? |

Car Talk / Re: Change Oil Warning Just After 1km With Mobil 1 Engine Oil by 9icetoo(m): 12:13pm On Sep 07 |
Fujiyama: Cold checks for me all day regardless of what manufacturer says. If it so happens while I am driving, then there is nothing cold or hot would have done about it. Leaking seals, ruptured seals, leaking oil cooler or leaking oil cooler lines are more common than you think. Many have started their engines without any oil (probably didn't notice the oil leaks). I will be so mad with myself if I wrecked am engine because I wanted to a warm check when a cold check would ha e saved me the grief. Cheers. 1 Like |

Fujiyama: Waiting fir the page. But let me ask you an innocent question. What if you spring an oil leak while driving (has happened to folks), and the car gets home without drama. Then, the remaining oil leaks out overnight through the sump where the leak is. Would it not be smarter to check the oil before you ruin the engine than to ruin the engine and check the oil later? Apparently you are right according the owners manual I just read for the csmry but that is some bulkshit. No engine has ever been harmed for checking oil before startup. Many engines have harned for not checking oil and running without oil after startup. Check your engine oil on a cold engine with the car parked on level ground. The difference in volume when warm vs when cold is negligible The difference in damage when run without oil is a new engine. Thank you. |

Fujiyama:Which vehicle if I may ask? Model, make and year would be grand. Cos I do not see the difference between checking your oil on a cold engine vs running it before checking it. Anyway, to each his own. |

pimplucious:Regardless of what Mobil 1 says, use your manufacturers recommended Oil Change Interval. That 20,000 miles has a caveat. It usually applies to vehicles with large oil sumps (the types that take between 8 to 10 liters during service). Yours uses 5 liters max during service. Again, you are still insinuating that your vehicle gave you a prompt for oil change due to oil quality. How it assessed that quality is strange. But what do I know? Did I idle your vehicle a lot during this period? Were you in heavy stop and go traffic? |
Car Talk / Re: Change Oil Warning Just After 1km With Mobil 1 Engine Oil by 9icetoo(m): 5:58am On Aug 15 |
pimplucious: Your car does not measure oil quality. Read what I wrote again. Your car does not measure oil quality. You are going from Mobil 1 (fake according to you) to hardex (who told you it's original) and you think you are better off? Again, do the oil minder reset properly yourself next time or ensure whoever is doing it, did it properly. Good luck. |
Car Talk / Re: Change Oil Warning Just After 1km With Mobil 1 Engine Oil by 9icetoo(m): 11:37am On Aug 13 |
pimplucious: You did not reset the maintenance minder. It is as simple as that. The maintenance minder measures oil life using two parameters; distance driven and time. The 2012 crosstour does not measure oil quality and quantity. Next time, make sure the mechanic resets the maintenance minder in your presence or you do it yourself. |

Stevclinton: If you have not tampered with the transmission, then this advise is for you. Your problem is the ecu. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I have witnessed this in three kias. One was a 2014 rio like yours, the others were souls and a hyundai. You have a defective ecu. For the rio. One chap in ph repaired it. For the others, the ecus were replaced and problems went away.

dubra: Not to burst your bubble, but there is nothing about that truck that screams "made in nigeria". The frame is from a Chinese truck (howo), the rear axle is from same Chinese truck (howo). I can bet that the engine and transmission is from the same truck. Front axle will likely be from the same truck. All tyres on the truck were imported. Rims were imported. Maybe the mudguard was made here. The propeller, bearings, hubs, brake lining, diesel tank, air tank, hydraulic hoses, interior furnishing, dashboard etc were all imported. So please, tell me how it's "made in nigeria" 1 Like |

Serendipity2023: And that is exactly what happened. There are pictures showing the waste bins upturned in the flood waters and then pictures of them retrieving the bins. But one idiot just put a caption on the picture of them retrieving the bins saying they were emptying their bins in the flood waters. They should sue the poster and stupid lawma agency for being too hasty.

StillDtruth: The bolded suggests I am either talking to a child or someone who should go back to school to know the meaning of speed, acceleration and how they relate with time. My apologies for throwing you off with my error in stating liters instead of seconds. But if you knew anything about cars, you would have known I was talking about seconds and not liters. Mention 0-100 to any car guy and he would be looking for seconds in timing. Enjoy your very fast 190E benz. |

Car Talk / Re: Who Still Remembers When V-boot And 190 Made Lagos-benin In 2 Hours? by 9icetoo(m): 4:48pm On Jun 20 |
StillDtruth: It takes a 190E 2.3 liter engine variant 10.1 seconds to go from 0-100km/hr and 24.9 seconds to get anywhere near 160km/hr. Now, this is for a brand new version with everything intact and the best possible fuel quality. None of the variable above favors your claim. Nostalgia is always viewed with rose tinted glasses. The person you are asking if he/she has ever driven a benz might have driven models you have not seen or touched, but you want to crucify your integrity on a slow car. Continue sha |

Bamss1: Then you are truly hung up on the opium. There should be no impartiality in the body of christ. Wigwe is or was just a member. If his death should stop a birthday of a non relative, then birthdays should be bummed generally cos every bleeping week, a parish looses a member and life goes on. Remove the log from your eyes before you pull the stick out of others. |

LastProphet: Other members of his parish died within the same period. Is wigwes death different or special because of his wealth or by another metric? I do not understand why everyone thinks life should be paused for others because of the death of one man (may his soul rest in peace). He is but a man. I find this stunt by RCCG very lame. Other church members have died and nothing special was done to honour them Do those church members not deserve empathy too? |

jesusjnr2020: Again, you read the headlines and leave the substance. The media can be very smart by half but I do not blame them. I blame idiots who do not read thru the bullshit. You can bless even a murderer. The only marriage blessing in the Catholic church is the sacrament of matrimony. It is one of the sacraments of the Catholic church. The Catholic has not and will not give it to same sex couples. If they however ask for any blessing, even from me, I will wish them well but not a union. If you still don't understand this but choose to live with your hatred for the Catholic church, be my guest. 3 Likes 1 Share |

malali: Your analogy no follow. Cows who are always being marched from one point to another take longer to fatten. The broiler chicken matures for consumption with enough meat between 2,1/2 to 3 months. Its free range counterpart takes anywhere from 6 months to one year and will have less meat. Ranching is the way to go. They should go and learn newer husbandry methods. Thank you. |

malali: Beef does not cost $30 per kilo in the usa nna. Cattles and other livestock should be raised in ranches as is obtainable elsewhere in the civilized world. A lot of people (farmers, herders, travelers, women, children, communties) have lost their lives because of conflicts with herders. Countless women have ben raped in their farms and murdered. It is time to do away with the traditional herding practice. This bill is welcome. |

olatade: Soldiers have become greedy and unruly. It's not just up north. It happened on Aba pH expressway this morning. The trucks conveying fertilizer from indorama refused to drop a dime and physically engaged the soldiers and threw away their logs used to block the roads. Nothing happened. Those Hausa boys don't fear soldiers cause most likely 1. they all have relatives in the military 2. They don't fear death like the southerners do 3. Those boys are ready to shut down any area where you unjustly kill one of their own. 4. Some of those trucks are also owned by army ogas. As a soldier, you also chose your battles wisely. 1 Like |
