Car TalkRe: My Car Vent Is Bringing Out Toxic Smell by autologic: 8:39pm On Mar 06, 2018
Ournaija:
Got the car 3 months ago. I noticed this awful smell from the vent. My body oozes out this smell after I put on the AC , even when the AC is off I still perceive it. Fragrances has little to avert it. I have checked the car engine and all look new as ever. The mechs confirm no leakage and the AC is as chilling as ever. please help what could be the issue?

Awful odour like what?

Car TalkRe: Pls HELP, Is The Water Missing With My Engine Oil?? by autologic:
3kay945:
Am bit confuse here, can anyone enlighten me pls? Is it possible for the radiator water to be boiling when the temperature gauge stays at the middlehuh

I thought it could be faulty temp gauge or the owner mis interpreted the gauge.
Yes is possible ,the design of temperature sensor is to react correspondingly to water temperature and its reaction to air only hot air might be flawed.
Just change the engine cos your engine is cheap.the cost that will do a standard gasket change is not too distant from change of engine .
Another thing: Don't use that stop leak stuff again

Car TalkRe: My RAV 4 2005 Model Keeps Overheating by autologic: 10:09am On Feb 26, 2018
midnitestar:
Hello all,

I need your advice on this issue. My RAV 4 engine keeps overheating especially when I accelerate.

I changed the engine Just recently alongside the radiator and the catalyst for the exhaust but it is still the same thing. Please experts in the house should assist with what could really be the issue here coz' this is the fourth time it is overheating.

I don't wanna have "kazeems" who will be treating symptoms instead of the real issue with the car.

A new mechanic I got said it had to do with the radiator cap but my fears remain that when I start speeding the car overheats and it has broken down twice at 3rd mainland bridge.

Please help guys
High speed induced overheating =Compression gas into cooling system.
Top gasket leak suspected .
Go for compression test and cooling system test to confirm compression integrity.

Dear Sir @digriz,
please i need your help urgently, saw your post on Nairaland about car jacking and stalling on motion.
My car has same issue and have spent a lot still the problem persist, can you share your phone no with me or call me on 08078270849.
I will like to engage your Mechanic Kazeem to help check. my car is Lexus RX300.

await your prompt response sir.

Thank you,
Oga don't waste your resources on futile exercise,it doesn't work that way . Car jerking and stalling are just symptoms of performances issue that can be due to hundred of reason.Other people fix for that similar symptom might not share the same fix with your issues r cos there is underlying root cause this might different .This similar to the same condition of a patience that has headache which can be due to different reason (malaria,typhoid ,cancer etc) What u need to do is to find the root cause of why the car is jerking and stalling and resolve it and that is all .
Simply go for diagnosis .
Car TalkRe: Camry 99 Thermostat Removal by autologic: 11:05am On Feb 19, 2018
Topleague:
my mechanic connect my toyota camry 1999 fan direct and i have been using it for the past 2 years. How do i correct it pls, whom do i meet, mechanic or electrician?
Meet a professional technician cos you need someone equipped enough to perform cooling system pressure integrity test for your cooling system before thermostat and wiring can be rewired to default so as to avoid triggering up a hidden overheating issue.
Caution :Don't let anybody touch your cooling system if the person is not equipped with cooling system pressure tester .
Car TalkRe: Camry 99 Thermostat Removal by autologic:
erico2k2:
so how does the code P0128 get triggered??(Camry Specific)
The ecu has a pre programmed set time taken for the car to achieve optimum temperature and the ecu will trigger P0128 if the set time is taken too long than the required threshold.
eg if the nominal time required to achieve optimum temperature is 10 minute but the time taken is more than 10 minute ,P0128 will be triggered.

Thermostat do not have any switch, why do you guys assume? the Thermostat has no wiring attached to it so how does it cause a circut to open or close?
Bross U fall my hand here
Thermoswitch(thermistor switch ) not thermostat

Thanks.....as for why d thermostat was removed in d first place,I can not say why it was removed cos I dnt buy d car as toks
U need to take car for cooling system diagnostics test before reinstalling thermostat and connecting the fan to default to avoid waking the hidden overheating issue that u are not aware of.

Car TalkRe: Over Heating Infinity QX4 by autologic:
Barbara007:
Nah its not that serious yet, it only rises when I move on speed but if on slow ride it is normal, I checked online too and I have strong feelings its the thermostat.
I really appreciate sir.
If your water pump is confirmed to be OK ,go for compression test to confirm if your top gasket is still intact .
Combustion gas leakage into the radiator will raise your coolant temperature indiscriminately with increase in engine speed.

Car TalkRe: Engine Takes Too Long To Crank by autologic:
nnadiug1:
Please I need help with my 2006 corolla sport. It's just over two years old. Cranking the engine takes longer than normal, say around 20 seconds, after which the car starts . I have taken it to various mechos, even took it to ladipo where one rewire guy said the "cold start" is bad , that was changed and car still continued taking too long to crank ...please help I love this ride so much


The "nozzles" have also been changed
still wonder why car owner in this 21st century still prefer clowns that treat symptoms .They will waste your resources and time and still add more wahala to your existing car problem in their trial and error.
For God sake ,your car is obd2 complaint Go for diagnoses
