What the need for all these? Is she proud to be burnt? Having burn scars is now fashionable. |

Jactitation. Hmmmm |
It is not without reason that we call engine oil the lifeblood of the engine. And it is not necessarily for just the reason that oil runs through the engine. It is called so because the engine oil performs several critical functions that assist in maintaining optimum engine performance and maximizing engine life as well as cooling the engine. And it is necessary to follow oil service intervals as recommended by the respective manufacturers of your brand. To ignore or extend the oil service intervals will lead to several risks and we list some major ones. 1. Increased sludge and oil soot levels. One of the main duties of engine oil is to keep the engine parts running smoothly by collecting and suspending the dirt particles. By extending the oil change interval, you also increase the amount of soot (mass of impure carbon particles resulting from the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons) in the oil that will inadvertently cause sludge, thus decreasing the engine’s ability to work efficiently. 2. Reduced crankshaft bearing life. The reduction of bearings’ life will be reduced through many factors including fuel dilution, coolant leaks, abrasive wear and corrosion. With extended oil change intervals, the levels of abrasives, fuel and coolant increase in the oil thus leading to removal of the bearing overlay and cause damage to the bearing linings. 3. Damage to engine. Missing the oil change interval will lead to engine damages, resulting in minimizing engine durability and safety. Extended oil change interval will also lead oil contamination eventually leading to loss of engine power. 4. Cam shaft failure. To lower emissions, manufacturers have been continuously improving cam metals, hardness, surface finishes etc to increase fuel injection pressures. If the soot in the engine oil goes overboard, the abrasive wear between rocker shaft and rocker bearing will increase leading to rocker arm failure. 5. Increased metal particles in oil. When you extend your oil drain interval, the metal particles suspended in the oil also increase along with the kilometres your engine does. Here are some photos below of a clean, regularly serviced engine and one that has been damaged due to sludge.

Indeed, something may have pulled off but that doesn't mean that you will be needing a new gearbox as prescribed by your "mechanic". Peugeot gearboxes don't just pack up like that. Get a second opinion if I were you. |
Oya Ikenna, over to you. Thanks for the other day. Really appreciated. |
Nissan Rogue. Nissan Criminal. Nissan Thief. Nissan Pick Pocket. Nissan 419. Me sef tire. |
Its a village school. What do you expect? |
PrettyCrystal:Really misplaced priority. Maybe he is planning a mass murder. |
Chai. See as she resemble her papa. |
Demons on the loose. |
Front page stuff. Oya, continue. |
How did they enter the stadium in the first place? Then I'm made to believe that the stadium authorities use the cattle to mow the lawns and cut the grass in a stadium where trees grow on the fields and track. |
Nnsuka people don come again to MARK their independence. |
Because maids are no longer those ugly dirty girls from the village or Togo. They may as well pass for your wife when she was younger. |
My friend, save yourself the pending heart attacks and simply get a complete toks lump. |
I stopped driving around aimlessly and conserved fuel for more important journeys. Its a 3 litre v6 Honda after all for crying out loud. |
They are mostly base models built in Europe for European temperatures that have been used and shipped to Nigeria Who needs air condition in Iceland? |
Hmmm. True but there are also a lot more reasons for that to happen including damaged oil intercoolers embedded within the coolant radiator. |
Gangster prophet. |
Beauties without brain. |
Just because this post has to do with the male member, see the amount of posts in just one hour. Haba |
Yes. If you are the one driving it. |
RichThug:Wow. How intelligent you sound. |
Pretty |
Hmmmmm |
Oh, he survived? |
Second time around. |
It makes a lot of sense. Simple. |
