Good morning, bosses.
Have a couple of things though.

1) the Camry 03 I use (rental), the steering wheel is very hard to manoeuvre and when I do, it makes some brushing sounds that shows it's being forced to turn. Though it doesn't affect my driving, just the sound and forced turning. Noted; I changed the ATF in it like 2 weeks ago. Y'all remember I was asking which one to use that time? I got the recommended one, but Still the same. your power steering pump is on its way out or your steering rack is in need of proper servicing

2) sometimes when I enter a gallop or on speed and climb on these low road bumps, like that on 3MB when going to island, and when driving slowing with touch of brake when entering these bad roads of some riders streets the steering wheel will be dragging itself as if there's one ghost dragging wheel with me. I always balance it up and this is very like this since day one of collecting the car, same as the hard turning of the steering wheel and the brushing sound it makes. it’s not a ghost fact is one of your front brake calipers is binding when you apply brake (means one needs either servicing or a change). The side that is binding is dependent on the direction your steering wheel ‘drags’ your hand to while braking (either left or right). So which is it?

3) when putting the car in parking, the car swerves forth and back like it wants to move, sometimes, it swerves front if on slopy road. Thank God I read the solution to this few pages ago (which has to do with the pin stuff). yep, your parking pin is weak. Try to be using your handbrake whenever you switch your gear to the park position before releasing your foot from the brake pedal so it won’t be stressing the pin any further

4) car owner said I must be servicing the car is every month. I won't wanna breach this. Wouldn't have asked this but because I read some pages back where someone talked about servicing should be when oil indicator is on alert. Please which one is right? Today would make it precisely 1 month (4 weeks) I have used the car. mobil xhp should be changed every 3000 kilometers if you’re using it for ehailing so always monitor your odometer instead of the weeks or months that pass by after a change

Additionally, fuel economy of the Camry is somehow reasonable, from my own point of observation. I believe Corolla only preserves more fuel than it.true that corolla consumes less fuel than your Camry so relax about it and manage your trips better to conserve your fuel

Much respect, bosses.

Are you now implying that those using Honda 2005 should stop using recommended 5w30 and start using 5W20 because Honda produce engines that now use 5W20 from 2011.

Na wa ooooo

The situation here is very complex because The Ortom government through an amnesty program, collected all the fire arms from the people, hoping that, the state will be secured by the conventional securities, but the only thing the security men are doing is to help to evacuating the victims when the invaders come attacking, the same securities would not want to see any local man with even a charm or fire arm . But repelling the attackers is not their concern either.
THAT IS HOW HELPLESS OUR CASE IS BACK HOME .

If someone corrects a false notion don't call it argument.

Which one be premeditations again? You just dey blow grammar, did you see where he talked about the problem of fakes?

Pearl1910:
Every car has its recommended oil (both engine and transmission) at the time of manufacture. Check what is recommended for a car, search for the original one and use it, no guesses, no assumptions and no premeditations.

samobaba4u:
Thanks for this undiluted lesson. Hope using it like that to save up won't have effect on the gear

ASGARD YOU NOR DEY SUPPORT IPOB AGAIN?

northbird:
I don't understand, you mean ALL Toyota cars.
I thought the gear oil to be used is engraved on the gear dipstick. T-IV or WS as the case applies.

The new branded Toyota gear ( color change in container ) oil still comes in two different variety. T-IV and WS
