Hi guys. I use a 2008 Honda Accord which I got toks two months ago. I serviced it 3 weeks ago with Mobil 1 and engine oil life is already at 50 percent just under 3 weeks. I want to know if I can reset it back to 100 percent when it gets to 20 percent because Mobil 1 is expensive and I can't be servicing the car with Mobil 1 every two months.

Famocious:
I recently changed my car (Lexus RX350, 2007) engine oil with 6 Litres of Mobil 1 5W30 fully synthetic. Two days after the oil change, I noticed my check engine light was flashing. The car was taken to an auto-workshop immediately where the oil check was found to be extremely low, water was seen gushing out from the exhaust pipe and the car was difficult to start. The auto engineer concluded that the top cylinder gasket was burnt and some of the valves were bad after further check.
The mileage on the car was 180,420; no evidence of oil leakage and the vehicle was not smoky prior to the incident.

The top cylinder gasket and all the 24 valves were replaced. The car is currently running smoothly.
Oando oleum SL 20W50 was suggested to be used for a further oil change by the auto repairer.
Is the suggestion a wise one or not?

PS: The oil change prior to the incident was with the recommended Mobil 1 5w30, however oil shortage was noticed 2 weeks after its change and a top-up with 2 litres was done.

Did the technician change the air filter and clean the fan and it's compartment? Sometimes dirt can cause alot of problems for the AC. Speaking from experience

Good evening my boss, so I went to see a technician and complained about the issue I have with my car, he said the gas was low, so we refiled the gas and I payed him for it. But the next day I noticed I was still having the same problem, AC doesn't blow cold air while on idle and starts blowing cold air while I'm in motion.
Can you please recommend a good technician to fix it for me in benin? Thank you

My oil life percentage got to 0% really fast, and I have only driven like 2000 miles after changing the oil in September.

In fact, it's now at -50.

But the oil level on the dipstick is still much but thw dashboard oil life percentage is already low.

Must i change the oil ASAP?

Your thoughts please Collione luvinhubby, kingreign, heavenlybang, presegs

Hi Infiniti/Nissan gurus,

I plan to purchase a 2004 infiniti FX35 soon. What are some of its common problem areas or things that you suggest I look out for during inspection?


And can anyone pls recommend a sound infiniti fx35 mechanic based in Festac or environs to go along with me to diagnose the vehicle?

Thanks.

Hello house pls how can I differentiate between An American spec and European spec C240 w203. My fuel level in the instrument cluster behaves erratically recently, it remain on 0 level when the car is cold until after the car runs for a while before reading, and I was told the sender unit is responsible. I went to find out the cost of the sender unit from spare part store and was asked if is American or European. Pls how can I know the spec the American spec cost #20k while Europe cost #6k, the price difference is much. Pls see the picture of the sender unit

Felicity0001:
I'm still trying to find out the exact year of my car because one can't tell the of Europe car with thw VIN... My oga @ oluwaseunla said he used to have an app or something he uses to check with the VIN but he can't place a hand on it anymore. So I'm still trying to find out.

Anyone who can assist on how to check the exact manufacturing year should please share

Guys, Which is the best option

Comprehensive Insurance or Tracker?

Insurance is insurance, tracker is tracker. They serve different purpose!

If you are in this business, and you don't have comprehensive insurance, sorry to say, you are not yet serious with business.

And if you don't have a car tracker installed ,
then sorry o.

If I have comprehensive insurance, do I still need a tracker should be the question.

Answer. Yes!

Why: When push turns to shove, everyone serves their interest first.


How in the world do you own a car, no tracker, no insurance, but have can afford a white hanky hanging on your rear view mirror. Only you sabi.
