Hello House

Where can i get a torque wrench not the regular ratchet that you cannot adjust the torquing level or those commonly use by our mechanics. The one with the proper calibration.

don't know if i can get that in Ladipo Lagos or not

Am Planning to change my MDX ATF and am just wondering if the entire fluid in the trans system can be drained by just opening the drain nut under. A friend change his ATF recently and all we did was to remove the drain nut and left it for about one and half hour to drain. We got a whole four gallon paint bucket filled up and some drain to a bigger bowl that could fill more than a litre bottle. The amount of old fluid drained would be up to six litre plus. We replaced with five litres of AFT, though it gauge to the desire level when measure with the deep stick but what i could deduce is that more was taken out of the tranny than replaced

My concern is, is it possible to have drained the content of the torque converter using this straight method because from what i learn, the SUV take five litres of ATF or still need special equipment to flush out the system to get to the torque converter.

Is it possible to order something today and get it deliver in Lagos by Friday or latest Saturday. I know its going to be a speedy delivery but let me know if its going to be possible or not. See item on amazon below

How obvious

killzone: the one I saw was not china at all.this was an abdroid OS even installed games OS and before u quote me I knw Z10 can install android apps and games that's by updating 10.2 but it can't install apps and games that require google login something like google +,plants vs zombies and others.but this one was different.it cud browse playstore,install the apps and games that require google login

Exactly the one I saw, has play store and other google apps that can't run on BB10

Can BB10 run solely on Android OS?

I saw a BB Z10 running android 4.3, The guy but the phone in Lagos and run solely on android OS not android apps running in BB10 OS. My question is if there are Z10 full android operated version originally manufacture by Blackberry or are this another cloned blackberry.

I do know that you can install most android apps on BB10 but not aware of android Z10.

pasino26: If you don't have it by Monday I wouldn't mind sending two across from Port cuz its a daily consumable here. Already you have my digits

Thanks @pasino, let me check Lekki shoprite this week first, will let you know if i have to get it from your side.

Evasmil4: Good discussion,
Few things to note if you really want to calculate your fuel consumption.
1. Where you buy ur fuel. = If u ar in ♍γ̲̣̣̥ part of the World, watch where u pullover for refuel as so will short fill you if you don't look, some have bad calibration and 10L will end up being just 6L of fuel. So fuel are bad and your car takes more to perform.
2. How you drive the car = hard driving, hard breaking, over speeding, bad uneven road and trafic jam all determines fuel consumption
3. Plugs condition = bad plugs, wrong plugs(it fit in doesn't mean it is the correct spec)know the plug spec of your car and use them right.
4. Payload in the car= unneccesary load/logages in the car contribute to the amount of weight the car is carring about. If it is not needed drop it at home.

Writing from practicalize experience on different vehicles or time.

Agrred with you, if the fueling is not accurate, it could throw you into confusion, thinking you are consuming more fuel.

This app is not on android

We need to stop jumping into conclusion, except you understand their language you will know what exactly they are doing. The video doesn't say they are corpse nor does it tell if its Gaza strip.

Who knows they might be making a movie or doing a a kind of traditional ritual.

SAW THIS ON A SITE ON THE INTERNET. Its a kind of power point slide that was uploaded on the site, seems much more explanatory that the one Kingschild123 pasted earlier.

HOW TO CALCULATE YOURCAR’S FUEL CONSUMPTION (FC)

• a) Definition Fuel Consumption (FC) is the measurement of fuel usage of a car over the distance covered by that car or in short; The amount of fuel used per distance. Do not confused Fuel Consumption (FC) with Fuel Economy/Efficiency (FE), they are closely related but they are not exactly the same thing.
• b) Unit of Measurement There is no universally accepted standardized unit for Fuel Consumption but the most common measuring unit used for FC is Liter per 100 Km (L/100km). While for FE, the unit of measurement would either be in Miles per Gallon (MPG) or Km per Liter (Km/L)

• 2.0 METHODS OF CALCULATION Two basic methods of calculation (simple mathematics to be honest) will be explained here and will be done in unit of Liter per 100 km (L/100km). Conversion to other useful unit will be showed in the later section.

• a) Rough Estimation For this method, 2 simple info is needed namely (i) the volume of gasoline you’ve spent/used over a specific distance & (ii) the rough estimated distance your car covered in that particular period.

• Example 1;A women traveled to her workplace with hersedan approximately 50km daily (round trip). Inthat distance, her car used up to around 4.7liters of gasoline. Her FC in L/100km would be-FC = 4.7 L / 50 km = 4.7 x 2 L / 50 x 2 km = 9.4 L / 100km @ 9.4 in L/100km

• Example 2; Ahmad journey to his factory & return home daily is 40km. He spent around RM25 of gasoline for 5 days of traveling for work. The FC calculation is as follows; First, RM25 of gasoline at RM1.9 per litre; Gas = 25 / 1.9 = 13.16 liter Second, total distance; Distance = 40 x 5 = 200 km*continue to next slide**price is for Malaysian RON95 Gasoline as at 2012

• Example 2;Hence, Ahmad’s Car FC; =13.16 / 2 L 200 / 2 km = 6.8L / 100 km = 6.8 L / 100km @ 6.8 in L/100km

• b) Careful Calculation Route-based type of driving which is City Driving (uneven road surface & a lot of braking/short stop) & Highway Driving (good road surface condition & smooth driving) shall be determined This will depend on your i) Odometer & ii) Fuel Gauge You’ll need to carefully observe the movement of your fuel indicator/gasoline usage

• b) Careful Calculation (Cont’) Correspondingly you’ll have to note down your mileages from the point you filled up your tank & until the moment it get back to the previous fuel level Note that however this is no guarantee that you would get an accurate value for your car FC, rather an approximation of how your car has perform in consuming its fuel

• Example 3; Chong went to a gas station to fill up his car where he spent about RM 35 (for RM1.9 per litre of gas). At that time, his fuel indicator had only just fall to one bar & his car mileage reading is 75100 km. After a few days of driving his car fuel indicator dropped exactly to one bar of gasoline again. At that particular time, his speedometer clocked 75280 km for his mileage. Note that Chong used federal road to his workplace daily. The FC calculation is as follows;*continue to next slide

• Example 3;First, RM35 of gasoline at RM1.9 per litre;Gas = 35 / 1.9 = 17.5 literSecond, total distance;Distance = 75280 - 75100 = 180 kmHence, Chong’s Car FC; =17.5 L 180 km = 9.7 L / 100 km = 9.7 L / 100km @ 9.7 in L/100km forCity Driving

• Example 4; In a vacation to the North side of the country with his wife Mary, Daniel filled up (once only) his car with a full-tank worth of gasoline (60 liter), right after his fuel indicator blinks a warning for near empty tank. His car mileage is 35500 km the moment he filled up his tank & it clocked 36330 km when his fuel indicator started to blink again when he reached his home. The calculation is as follows; First, Volume of gasoline; Gas = 60 liter*continue to next slide

• Example 4;Second, total distance;Distance = 36330 - 35500 = 830 kmHence, Daniel’s Car FC; =60 L 830 km = 7.2 L / 100 km = 7.2 L / 100km @ 7.2 in L/100km fora combination of Highway & City Driving

• 3.0 CONVERSION TO OTHER UNITa) L / 100 km Miles Per Gallon (MPG)b) L / 100 km Km / Liter*note that when conversion is made to eitherMPG or Km/liter, the value they represent istermed “Fuel Economy” or “Fuel Efficiency”

• 3.0 CONVERSION TO OTHER UNITa) To convert L/100km to MPG,Y (MPG) = 282.58 X (liter / 100 km) and, vice versaX (L/100 km) = 282.58 Y (MPG)*this is a reciprocal function

• 3.0 CONVERSION TO OTHER UNITExample 5;Let say given FC is 6.6 L/100 km, so the MPG is?Y (MPG) = 282.58 6.6 (L / 100 km)Y (MPG) = 282.58 = 42.82 Miles Per Gallon 6.6

• 3.0 CONVERSION TO OTHER UNITb) To convert L/100km to Km/Liter,Z (Km/Liter) = 100 X (Liter/Km)Example 6;What is the Fuel Efficiency (Km/L) for given FC8.5 (L/100 km)?Z (Km/Liter) = 100 = 11.76 km / Liter 8.5 (Liter/Km)

• 4.0 IMPROVING YOUR FCa) Keep Your Speed Below 100Km/h (roughly 60 Mph) or Drive Slowly! Generally speaking, by going over 100Km/h, your FC will suffer, ranging from 20% to 30% of your best FC

• 4.0 IMPROVING YOUR FCb) Don’t Push The Pedal Too Hard Yes, take it easy on the pedal. Speeding and rapid acceleration and braking would reduce your gas mileage up to 20%!

• 4.0 IMPROVING YOUR FCc) Moderation in Air-conditioning The air-con compressor drew its power directly from your engine so it is advisable for you to put the compressor at minimum (and/or your usage!)

• 4.0 IMPROVING YOUR FCd) Avoid idling / Excessive Warm up!e) Avoid bad road condition / traffic congested route

Hello guys,

please what is the best method to calculate the actual fuel consumption. I know vehicle manufacturers have rated millage on their vehicle and I believe this is base on a kind of standard testing.

Would like to know this so I can
1. Know if my car is developing any issue
2. Know the best route that gives me the best fuel economy.
3. And to know the best driving pattern that gives me the best fuel economy

The way we frame our headlines sometimes. This write up do not contain or give reason why he defected to PDP.

nissparts: Surulere shoprite as well

Jukeblam says you can't get it in Surelere shoprite, except you have seen it on their shelve recently

sultaan: I am not telling you to do a service just to know you can't ignore it like in most models because the original fluid was they are on the third fluid type since that transmission was made compared to other brands

Got it, will surely take not of this if the need to change ATF arises

Thanks will definitely check this weekend

CityNG: Sorry it's in Ibadan (the Ring Road location but I would assume that they all carry the same inventory though). I am almost certain as I went in there to specifically look at what they have for cars and babies so I know what I don't need to bring on my trips home.

Thanks will check the lagos outlet out but first let me find out about the Revo penetrating lube spray that timsobj mentioned earlier
