Car TalkRe: Plz Help. AC Not Cooling When Weather Is Hot, Cools A Little When On Top Speed. by cocoduck: 12:46pm On May 01, 2016
prince088:
Its single cell as it has one fan. But thats how ot was bought. The fan have been worked in before. When i pour water on the condenser it starts cooling well. Once it dries up, it stops working. Cools to a fault early mornings or nights. Means it has to do with the condenser cooling. Again the thermostat does not kick in for a while....guess, cos the AC not working well
the condenser is not doing its job, it either the fan or the condenser, heat exchange, heat exchange, small sense no good.

Make we explain how this thing works, you no gree, okay na stop using the ac system. That water you poured on the condenser cools the condenser and removes heat from the hot refrigerant that is comming from the compressor, if it does not do it on its own, maybe the fan is not blowing well, try using your house fan and place it in front of the condenser and see what happens,
for me I will check the condenser for blockage using an infrared thermometer, or If you can, just replace the condenser and the fan. Since that is what you want.
Car TalkRe: Kindly Help Find A Solution To This Issue by cocoduck: 1:19pm On Apr 30, 2016
That is why white people say every reader is a leader, you buy a car, even if it is second hand, you by omission or commission refuse to read ur owner's manual, you don't know that you must change the tranny oil, just as u change the engine oil, and must use the recommended oil ONLY. Oils degrade as they are subjected to heat, hence the tranny oil change should be made part of the maintenance. Now you are going spiritual, just as I said above, if there are gritty particles in the engine oil you got from your tranny, then the tranny is toast. A good tranny oil should be pinkish in color.

Heads up....i took the car for scan but didnt meet the guy incharge of the scan, after i explained the issue to some other guys i met there, they refered me to another guy in the vicinity who they described as an expert in gear repairs. On checking the gear the self-acclaimed expert told me that my transmission oil is extremely bad and the gear oil filter is broken. He poured out the oil and brought out the filter, lo and behold the oil is very thick, black and smelly and also the filter is torn. He has gone to get fresh oil and a new filter. Will keep this space updated with the outcome.
insert your finger into the oil he brought out of the tranny feel for gritty particles, if there is none, then rejoice and put the recommended tranny oil for UR car, if there are gritty particles , then sorry.

Car TalkRe: Does Driving With The AC On Actually Use More Fuel? by cocoduck: 10:08am On Apr 30, 2016
When you switch on the AC, the car's idle sound changes, right? So now the car needs more energy to run, because it (the compressor) must pressurise the system, the energy to do that is gotten from the engine, which means more fuel, Energy cannot be created or destroyed but can only be converted from one form to the other. Simple Physics.

Thanks bro, but with the above codes what do you think the problem might be?
Just as Gazzuz said, it's a catalytic converter efficiency bellow threshold code, which can be caused by misfire, that is raw gasoline being pumped into the cat, from one or more cylinders that do not contribute to the engine power output, which to me partly explains the inability of the car to accelerate, so if I were you I would stop driving the car until it is fixed, you may end up frying the catalytic converter.

For a cylinder to contribute, to the power or for an engine to run, there must compression, fuel and spark at the exact right time, so we must know which cylinders are missing fire, and why, before anything is changed.
Car TalkRe: Help My Peguot 307 by cocoduck: 9:11am On Apr 30, 2016
You need a scan tool not a simple code puller, though it is tiny but I think the lights I see there are airbag, ABS and check engine light, get a scan tool (I did not say buy) like emmm the Autel maxidas, you will be able to do a comprehensive Scan on all the systems, but please don't take your car to kazeem
Car TalkRe: My New Car Embarasses Me, Help Please by cocoduck: 12:23am On Apr 30, 2016
scan the car, for codes and pending codes, The car brain box or ECU needs some signals from sensors like the Crankshaft position sensor, the can shaft position sensor to start, if you can get a good scan tool even some basic scan tools are able to give you live data, you check the signals these things send to the ECU, sometimes when it's cold they work, but as soon as they heat up they stop working.
Scan the car is all I can tell you for now.
Car TalkRe: It's fine now by cocoduck: 12:10am On Apr 30, 2016
Emekayoung:
Nope why do u ask??
Pls tell me if there are other things i need to know.
the brain box uses that sensor to know the temperature of the engine, and weather it is a cold start or not, so it was getting a wrong temp and acting on it it refused to give activate the injectors, this sensor and other sensors like Crankshaft position and cam shaft position sensors are important and lack of any will make the car not to start of if it does, run rough. Don't take your car to kazeem.

I am so grateful to Mr Gazzuzz,i don't even know where to start from. At 1st my mech service d injector mouth,nozzle,changed fuel filter and even planning to change my fuel pump but i declined. So i decided to seek for an advice from nairalanders and immediatey after posting my complaints,Mr Gazzuzz came to my rescue,i did exactly wat he told and now early morning hard starting is all ova. My oga thank u for saving me frm over spending on dis car. I owe u alot.. U will definitely hear frm me tomorrow.. God bless u and and ur family.
cool
Do you know what happened to ur car?
Car TalkRe: Plz Help. AC Not Cooling When Weather Is Hot, Cools A Little When On Top Speed. by cocoduck: 6:03pm On Apr 29, 2016
GAZZUZZ:
the current rate of compression can be checked via a pressure gauge to rule out the compressor.

OP replace the condenser(brand new), filter(comes in condenser), and expansion valve. If the compressor is bad have it replaced again.
By the time this ac finish with this guy, him go don buy new car. If he can let him take it to you.

OP called to thank me, he said replacing the coolant switch worked. Not everything is rocket science.
Good. Very good. But you must see yourself as a scientist.

Bros na wa o. The one i ask u nor ans. I nor wan know as AC for car dey work abeg. Na make my AC cool i want.

By the way i put a paper in front of the condenser, it sucks the paper in....not with force though. So i guess its flowing in the right direction
if you don't want to understand how it works, then I am sorry, I can't help you. The AC system is very delicate and precise so you must know what you are doing, not just moving like a robot. Sorry mate.
Car TalkRe: It's fine now by cocoduck: 5:37pm On Apr 29, 2016
GAZZUZZ:
replace coolant temperature switch you should scan too.
excuse me pleas, I don't want to fight with you, but, he must use the scan tool to check what is missing, I believe either the Crank shaft position sensor is bad or the Cam shaft position sensor is the culprit here, sorry if you find it offensive, but he will only end up spending money if the ECT is not the problem,
once again the is not to offend you. Na you be Oga here.
Yes, I am not doubting your knowledge or prowess but I believe in testing before replacing, so we don't end up being mere parts changer.
Car TalkRe: Plz Help. AC Not Cooling When Weather Is Hot, Cools A Little When On Top Speed. by cocoduck: 5:30pm On Apr 29, 2016
Let me explain how the AC system works.
The compressor pressures the system, it sucks the gas from the big hose and forces it into the small hose ( low pressure side is the big hose, high pressure side is the smaller hose), when this happens, the temperature of the high pressure gas rises, then it goes into the condenser as a hot high pressure gas, the condenser is a radiator for the AC system it gets rid of the heat in the gas, when it is too hot then the fan kicks in to help on the heat exchange, then the removal of heat will make the gas to become liquid and goes to another radiator in the cabin compartment, this radiator is called evaporator, ( As its name implies it is the exact opposite of the condenser, if you know your state of matter in ss1 physics abi chemistry) but the refrigerant must pass through a device called the expansion valve in some cars or orifice tube in others, before getting into the evaporator, evaporate into a cold low pressure gas, your blower motor blows air over the cold evaporator and cools the car interior.
Long abi?
If you changes the fan check that it is blowing the right direction.

yes bible according to Jesus is authentic but the problem with the Christendom today is the were about this Gospel according to Jesus? nothing like gospel according to Mark, Matthew, Luke, John, and must annoying is Paul the self made disciple.

yes i agreed with you that internet is god of people that refused to sight the numerous signs of Allah close to them, in the universe and withing them self, since human nature can not do without worshiping, you must have something to worship; stone, sun, iron, water, money, human, Humanity, ego, science etc are among the gods of insensitive human who think he was created out of nothing and deliberately refused to read signs of his eyes and it contents.

I think i did explain this already. on the sperm and the IVF, the scientist couldn't produce man from laboratory but by the same spam created initially by Allah, let the Scientist create uncreated element to develop embryo then we can start talking, but as for this knowledge given to human by Allah is a limited one and can never go beyond the limit, human knows only what is brain capacity can carry.

Get one copy for your self and sincerely, openhearted read this Quran. How could Muhammad of far desert years ago know what science just came to now yesterday? ponder over this He was not leaned and yet the word could never produce such impeccable and eloquent book of wisdom, for the nations followed by Millions and Generations. Well done brother.

FosterFerret:
To be quite honest — and I'm not trying to rile anyone here — the COD series has barely made any significant leap since the first in the Modern Warfare line of the franchise. The yearly release policy means games are rushed into production, so we get the same increasingly bland title every year with half-baked campaign modes and laughable plots.
Now, the best FPS I've ever played will have to be Bioshock. It innovated the FPS genre and had nearly as much of an impact as DOOM. Great gameplay mechanics, detailed environments, engrossing atmosphere, etc. I can't wait for its rumored current-gen remaster.
