To start with the issue of solving the oil consumption has to be solved. Using 20w50 oil in my opinion does not solve that problem......... I really doubt that car lasted that long with so many miles grin with 240k miles the car is finish now grin with bad road and Uber driving again grin .....come on behave urself ......

Before that car reaches over 100k miles , it will be smoking all manners of smoke now grin white smoke gray smoke...



Modify..... I just check your profile. You have deleted all your topics grin or anything that might identify you. There is no number to contact etc grin wetin you dey hide.......


Please kindly show us this your camry .. With the mileage ...... grin . na so I ask Bazz001 to show us his low mileage camry.. Till today we no see picture grin abi the 240k mileage camry catch fire grin abi it is smoking white smoke grin
So you believe you cannot be wrong? I'm telling you from first hand experience and you keep disagreeing when you have not even used the car before.
Send your trusted sombori to come and see the kind of smoke that is coming out since you're so sure it's smoking grin and also check the mileage

You said I deleted my topics, well I don't have any topic and I have nothing to hide. I will give you my number if you ask. You got nothing on me bro cool

My mechanic bought it for me one day, told him to return it and warned him never to try it again. Since then, na me dey buy my oil myself.
Na good oil if you use 20w50 mineral oil. It's normal to choose popular brands that you know over quality brands that you don't know

Is this a brand of Oil?
Yes. It was the cheapest I could find because I already wrote off the engine so I didn't want to waste money on oil but to my surprise it turned out to be a great bargain

It is well established fact not a myth . That 2007 to 2009 Toyota camry v4 shorts oil. This is factory defects.
Once the Camry reaches a certain mileage the oil consumption kicks in excessively.

But what is the cause of this excessive oil consumption. It is a bad piston that is creating this oil consumption. So Toyota had a recall to fix these the piston. I think it cost over $2000 to fix these problem


We have already establish the cause of the oil consumption. And you already admitted that yours consumes oil . but your solution to a bad piston is to use thicker oil like 20w50 without you actually fixing or replacing the bad piston... If this was the actual solution I think Toyota would have just told is customers to go home and use thicker oil . This will be cheaper solution for Toyota. But guess what? it does not solve the problem. It is more of a bandaid.......

You claim that you driven yours for 3 years with no issues at all . And 20w50 solved the problem. Let us take into account how often you drive the car in Lagos. Lagos is populated like New York and you can't really put too much miles on the car, I don't think your cars puts on anything close to 12k miles a year. Where are u driving in Lagos to put that much miles ..

Unless you are doing uber like our friend Bazz001 that drives a low mileage camry around up and down like a yellow cab driver grin we know his oil consumption will be high. He most likely has a drum of 20w50 in the boot of his low mileage camry.. I can even recall when it was mention here that 20w50 went up from 4500k to 9k .. He stated he will need buy couple of cartons of 20w50. But I think it is a whole drum is using now grin

I am sorry to go off topic here .. My point here is that I don't think you drive the car long enough to really encounter this problem .. Yes your cars purrs like a kitten, but purring like a kitten is not the issue at hand . it is bad piston that causes this excess oil consumption. And you are not driving long enough to encounter this problem excessively

And I believe that if you have to do it again , you will not buy the v4 u more than likely go for the v6. The v6 is much fun to drive and the fuel consumption is not that much . And importantly it does not come with a factory defect engine...
We know that the engine burns oil but that's not the point here, I just want you to know that the engine can still last for years and not few months as you're making people who have not used it believe.
I use mine for uber as well and I've covered over 100k miles since I bought it. Current mileage is around 240k so as long as you change your oil as at when due then the engine will serve you better.
20w50 is not a death sentence to this generation of engines, maybe it may not last as long as if you use 5w30 synthetic but that doesn't mean it will not last. Infact people should worry more about the body of the car especially in this lagos because that engine will still outlast the body grin

I don't think that car will last 6months before it starts smoking..... My point here is once a car starts to short oil and nothing is done to solve that problem. It is just a matter of time before the car gives up ...............


Car owners.....stay away from cars that short oil and get rid of it before it starts to smoke
Stop saying what you don't know, this wrong info can make a novice undersell their car believing the engine will soon pack up.
Mine has been shortening oil since I bought it and it's over 3 years and counting. I have been using sharlu 20w50 for 3 years and my engine is still as quiet as a mouse

End User: Yes, I'm interested. I don't have the time to make the purchase. My web person is on holiday. I'd forward your message to him when he returns.

Me: You don't need time to make the purchase, all you need is click on the domain name and click on Buy It Now grin


Enduser: $50! You know, you bought this domain less than 10 bucks, if you make quick x5, it's a good business.
Me: The marketplace will charge 30% commission and there will also be a transfer fee of $26 so I won't be making quick x5 from $50, can you add 1 before the 5 and make it $150 grin

Yet another end user, this one is using a .net and I have a .com

End User: Thank you for letting us know about this domain. I met with my board, we won't be interested at this time because we believed you WOULD ASK too much for this domain...
Me: I'm so eager to change your belief, try me and make an offer grin


Another funny end user;

Thank you! I like this domain. I will wait and pick it up for $9.99 whenever you drop it! grin grin

Me: You go wait tire. Because of you I will never drop it grin

End User: It is an interesting business opportunity you are offering with the domain name. How long have you had that business in West Seattle? Is you web site still up  for viewing?  Why are you choosing to sell the domain name?  Are you retiring or leaving the local area of Seattle?  Would love to discuss more with you.

I am free tomorrow am till 10:30 am...... or after 7 pm.  Would you give me a call in the am and let us have an open discussion for you to explain all these questions?  Here is my cell phone number...  Look forward to talking with you.


Me: Okay sir, forward ever backward never. Continue looking forward

Beyond these refunds, does Bolt actually truly block these accounts or put a debit on accounts like Uber does? Cos these riders will continue to scam drivers since there are no consequences.

Lolz...they are saying thesame thing. From my interpretation, if there is a change in sound (whether higher or lower) when u turn in a particular direction, then the opposite hub is bad.

An easy way to find out which I use is: jack d front tyre up, suspend one side, start engine, engage gear and accelerate, listen to the sound of d suspended tyre as it rotates, if hub bearing is bad, u will hear it. Do same for the other side to confirm.
Lol the thing is confusing sha.
I know about the jacking up, I just felt if I could know which side is bad by turning right or left while moving then jacking up won't be necessary again

Good day my ogas in the house , pls which kind swear fit these kinds of Uber riders that will request and will not call and when you call them they will ask.

Rider.. where are you

Rider ... Okay am waiting
And waaaaaaaaaaa after almost ten minutes drive.. Me hello I'm in so so place where are you

Me... Pls cancel the ride
Rider... Ok
After more than 5 minutes the trip is not cancled and at times I cancle the trip myself useing not save to pick option and at time I drive to the PU to spend another 5min to cancel... Pls this job no easy atall ooo.
It happened to me last night. A destination trip to my area. She called immediately I accepted the trip to tell me where she was and I moved.
She called again when I was almost there and I told her where I was, then when I finally got there I called to inform her and she said "okay I'm coming out" (it was an event center)
After waiting for over 5 mins I called her again to hurry her up, next thing I heard was.. "I'm sorry I've left because of the crowd (touts) outside, you sef can see them. I tried cancelling from here it did not go, pls help me cancel "
I had to ask again that did she mean she was inside and couldn't come out cuz of the touts or she had actually left, she said I've left the place she wanted to start explanation again I just told her don't worry before she scatter my brain.. she left how, from I'm coming out to I've left when I parked exactly at the entrance/exit. Did she fly or disappear lol.
Riders like that are mostly girls who have gotten free ride from one guy that has been eyeing them at the party

The commission thing is annoying. Imagine I picked a guy and a girl from cemetery road, around Adekunle to Luth idiaraba. Money came to 1200. Bolt removed 600 and rider paid 600. Transfer.

This is one thing we should have complained about if we had attended the zoom meeting
I don't understand what the complaint will be about. You still get your money, just see it as N600 cash trip + N600 card trip. The balance after commission has been added to your account

I understand what you're trying to describe. It's been shown that your email was sent using Gmail, instead of the particular domain.

Wow, that's an interesting one! Things always looked normal everytime I checked on phone. So leads might have been notified that I sent via Gmail? shocked

But then, I would assume that is still somewhat better than for them to see the typical or personal email address.

LASUTH roundabout,

If you are coming from Ikeja underbridge, to link Mobolaji bank Anthony or Ikeja GRA.

The road divides into three lanes. Maintain the first two lanes ( extreme left and the middle) if you are going to the above named places. The third lane is meant for those going right.


Pitfall.
1. Observe the traffic light. Some Lagos motorists don't have empathy when the light gives green. They move sluggishly, which reduces the number of cars that can pass within the allocated time.

Lastma and MIB (they are permanently stationed under that bridge) prey on this to fleece unsuspecting victims.
Once, the green light blinks, (the next one is red, grin) and you have at least two cars in front of you, please stop. Another 50 seconds wait might save you from the clutches of these greedy urchins.


2. Don't turn left from the 3rd lane,even if the light is on green, you are meant to keep right on the 3rd lane.
Peradventure you find yourself on the 3rd lane, and you are going to bank Anthony or GRA. No probs.

Solution : keep to your right, immediately , take your next available right into Aviation plaza, you drive in, then you use the building to connect back to the 2nd lane of Kodeosho Street.

You can't burn ₦200 fuel making that detour, at least it's much better than lining the pockets of those greedy urchins who will probably use the money ( money obtained under duress can't benefit the recipient) for less noble things and maybe getting drunk.
Exactly what happened and I had to sacrifice my back tyre, since then once green light starts blinking I'm stopping, I'm not waiting for any amber or trying any luck. Who no go learn for Lagos
