But wait o.. If engines were not meant to get dirty in the first place oyinbo for dey seal all engines from factory na.. Abi na only for naija we get dirty "potopoto" roads ni?

Ehen @ Op as per that mud the one wen your hand reach do if not drive by splashes from a pool of water like Dipo said should do the trick. To remove that mud would take a whole lot of liquid to get it off but also getting in the wrong crevices. Bottom line.. Leave washing your engine for now and let a certified tech check that sound. Funny enuf we are still in the rainy season so what's the likelihood you would not enter that same mud again grin #okbye#
Thanks a lot.. Would put that into thought..

Car Talk › Re: See Why You Should Mind What You Keep In Your Car Especially In Hot Weather by captainking(m): 11:43pm On May 29, 2017
naijacarlovers:
A car parked stationary under the sun can have temperatures shoot up drastically and also incredibly increasing the temperature of its contents. This singular reason is why it is extremely unwise to leave living beings like kids or pets in the car in hot weather.... Children have been killed like this at several times all over the world. So don't even think it's restricted to particular regions.


A new incident has just revealed that this warning should extend beyond just living beings but also to pressured cans like hairsprays, perfumes, etc and also loaded guns. Kii

Unfortunately a lady in Washington, Karmen Ayres’ had a bitter experience after her windshield got a massive damage from an exploded can of hairspray while she was at work.

According to Jalopnik, "On closer inspection, she noticed it was a can of hairspray lodged in her cracked windshield. She said she had left the can in her car on the back passenger side seat.

“At first I looked up, because I thought maybe something fell,” Eyres said. “But then I noticed it was from the inside out. I was in shock and then I realized what it was.”

Imagine the sheer force that deployed the can from the backseat right to the front windshield. Good thing that no one was in the car to have taken a direct hit from the can

Here in Nigeria, some years ago, a lady's fire extinguisher exploded in her boot and completely coated the whole car with white powder up-to her front windscreen. Though in her case, the fire extinguisher had expired.

The bottomline is that you should always mind what we leave in the car. If you feel they might be affected by heat, kindly look for something like a cloth especially dark coloured ones that can absorb the heat to the barest minimum and throw over the item. Or put them inside a bag especially at the back if your car has tinted privacy windows where the tint should help reduce the intensity of the heat.


Culled from www.naijacarlovers.com
Agreed
. That's how my gas I was supposed to use to Refill my ac exploded inside my car cos I kept it inside and locked all doors.. Happened. In Jan...damaged my side mirror.. And d other place in the pics..

Someone has had this same issue as you have, unfortunately he too had to Rev hard to get himself unstuck. Yeah it's a camry pencil.

First off washing car engine with water is tricky as you know engine and water don't go together. What I normally do if I have mud in my engine bay is to clean the ones closest to the top (very tough task foam and petrol not water) and then look for pool of water grin, 4 splash drives cleans the underbody. But in your case you can use diesel.

As for the gear, physical inspection is needed you don stress the guy too much, but clean first, if sound persist after 2 days, consult your doctor
hahahhahahaha haha.. Ur sense o d humour never fades nurey... Thanks buddie..

Good evening house.
OK... Last night.. My car got stuck in serious mud.. That even made my car bumper to pull off... Had to reverse really hard to get the car out.. After that.. I observed that the engine became dirty and mud clothed... So I decided to wash it... Also.. I discovered that.. When I reverse hard.. Like.. Hit the accelerator hard when reversing.. It makes a funny noise as it there is a plate in the gear.. I feel maybe it's the mud from last night... Cos it started after last night horrible experience.. So. I want advice oo.. Should I go ahead and wash the car engine... And will It stop the reverse gear from making that noise..??

So, use the Honda DW-1 Atf.
