Dollyak:
You don't have to be a Muslim to see that this is a legitimate protest. Defending an adoption of western culture i.e Lawyers wig, rope and dressings, while criticizing an Islamic dress is a master piece of hypocrisy.
Western culture you call it. Why are you typing with a.western made phone ? You see how you clip your wings yourself ? You lot are selective in your judgement .

Erico2k2 please help out
I think you should go to a place where they have proper Diagnostic tools, there are people on here who do, what is your location?we got people on here who could be of help as regards scan.There is no need suggesting or throwing parts at your car when you do not know what is wrong, it would be guess work and that cost money.

Thanks erico I really appreciate. There are no traces of water leakage on the floor because I do check the ground before starting the car in the morning. Still, I will have my hose and water pump checked and I will get back to you.
Great stuff however dnt be decieved, water leak is tricky, the tricky ones occur at
1 when the system is presurized
2 when the system is hot
these are the times to check for leaks!

Good day to you guys, pls I need an expert advice on my 2004 Toyota corolla. Suddenly the fuel consumption increase dramatically and it rough idle when ever I match the brake or pack the car with the AC and Gear engaged. I have changed the Nozzles and spark plugs, problem still remain. This evening I try something different by unplugging the idle control valve sensor and car run smoothly. Could it be that the idle control valve is bad? Thanks in anticipation of ur response.

You say All RR are made in the UK.
I agree.

But the ones exported to the Usa are specially built for the US market.
Reasons why it's different from the UK spec .
Us is Lhd UK is rhd.
The USA spec has different emission requirements .
E.t.c

It's not produced in the USA doesn't mean it's not built for the USA market.

You guys on the forum need to calm down and read comment properly before responding. No be fight chief. We are here to learn more.

Iphones are assembled in China doesn't mean it's not an American Device.
You are deviating from your initial comment, you need to calm down and listen when people who know what they are talking about talk.
your first talk was about gear knob, which you dnt know jack shyte about, I showed you my one, now you are going about emission test which you know nothing about well let me school you on that as well
Note that US standards are strict on Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Particulate Matter (PM), while the EU is strict on Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO). In other words, European regulators are focused on fuel efficiency to limit the dependency on crude oil from Russia and the Middle East, and on greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change. On the other hand, American regulators are focused on smog and health impacts of air pollution.

Differences in US and EU emissions standard key cause of Dieselgate
David Herron October 2, 2015 Fossil Fuels

How did the automobile market go from “diesel is stinky, noisy and slow” to “diesels are fun and clean” with turbocharged diesels selling like hotcakes in Europe to the Dieselgate scandal? Some economics researchers studied this question, and found it had to do with opposing goals for emissions control laws in Europe and the U.S. The turbocharged diesels were designed for European emissions control laws, but didn’t do so well against America’s.

The researchers note that it wasn’t until the introduction of TDI Diesel engines, in 1989, that diesel car sales took off. Within a decade the diesel car marketshare in Europe went from 10% to over 50%.

It’s commonly assumed the cause for this was the tax rate on diesel fuel. In order to “harmonize” energy taxation across Europe (I believe they mean the European Union), diesel fuel received favorable taxation with the European Fuel Tax Directive of 1973. However, that taxation treatment left the marketshare at 10%.
US, EU, Different air pollution standards

Note that US standards are strict on Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Particulate Matter (PM), while the EU is strict on Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO). In other words, European regulators are focused on fuel efficiency to limit the dependency on crude oil from Russia and the Middle East, and on greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change. On the other hand, American regulators are focused on smog and health impacts of air pollution.

The 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act focused on vehicle emissions connected with acid rain and smog. Remember when those were the hot button issues in America? Climate change is the issue today, but 20+ years ago the American’s had a different worry.

According to the study: “Three-way catalytic converters used to reduce emission in gasoline engines cannot cope with the high concentrations of NOx generated by diesel engines.” That caused both VW and Mercedes-Benz to stop selling diesels in America, for awhile. But because European air pollution standards focused on other pollutants, they were free to sell diesels in Europe, where the cars did very well.

Adding a urea tank and injection system is the method used by most automakers to mitigate NOx emissions from diesel vehicles. It’s thought that Volkswagen didn’t want the cost of that system, to hit lower price targets. Therefore VW’s cars did not have a urea system, and instead VW claimed to have solved their NOx emissions through some other mechanism. What we now know is that other mechanism was to lie and cheat the system.

But it gave VW several years of strong sales of TDI Diesels in America.The RRS produced and shipped to America are Petrol Engines so it met these standards .The diesels are not sold there.
And for you saying UK is RHD US is LHD, you forgot other part of Europe are LHD, and the EU standard is same for all EU country the UK inclussive.
What are you going to come up with now? Headlight look diffrent orhuh??

NwaAmaikpe:
shocked



I don't take it serious when I hear someone in the Western world was convicted of rape.
It's not as criminal as the true rape

Rape there is not rape in Naija.
If someone is convicted of rape in Nigeria, they deserved it.
Rape entails taking the victim unawares, forcefully restraining the victim, tearing pants, and violating the victim..

But in Yankee, even if the girl was the one that put your ogede inside her ponyor, then she has a change of mind during the act and you do in and out after that change of heart, it is rape.

Such a sad reality walahi...
But you did not hear the full story why make assumptions??

for the good and bad and general morals Islam still perfect that of Moses. For many things were not elaborated and mentioned to Moses, e.g God asked Mose to give the poor, but how it was only don randomly apart from 10 pec, but Islam gives more insight to giver and the receivers. secondly inheritance was not well pronounced for Moses but God gave Muhammad the full calculations. etc
You are proving me right here.This same God spoke to both person Moses and Mohamed, aknowledged in both Holy books, so the discripancies where created by men fru intepretations.

all most all you are right, but not all. In Islam it is mandatory for Muhammad and all His followers to perform all 5 pillars of Islam but for the Moses they were not mandatory for all the followers only for Moses.

i disagree with you, the colonial master met many part of this country with our Islamic religion well established when they came and the bases of amalgamation of this country was based on religion tolerance among others, Islam just have to be hard, i mean loudly.
they joined the regions for easy governance, has nothing to do with Religion.When you add religion to governance you get a very toxic mix as they never agree,one is factual the other on belief

as far as the religion law does not in any way harm the opposite religion or person why should we deprive who ever desired to use it. it just a cloth, it cant even kill a fly on it own.

but the man is always under the influence of a religion either divine, conventional or materialism and as you rightly said that law are made by man but the rules of religion are divine especially Islam. this rule of divine supersede any other man made Law.
This is why religion is personal, it cant be enforced hence it cant govern a society as not everyone would agree, let those who agree converge to worship as they so please.when you enforce it on others it becomes extreem!

Jews no more tithe ever since their temple got destroyed in 70AD and right now a mosque is standing on d exact spot the temple is standing. Until the temple is built back, the Jews won't be able to tithe.. It goes to iterate wat Apostle Paul said.. We (gentiles) av been grafted in and all the blessings that belonged to the jews are now ours tru Jesus Christ(till after the rapture when the church age would end)
