Please Why is it that when I hit a little bump or when I matched on the break my car will pull me to the left or right and anytime it pulls I noticed the steering wheel used to roll to the opposite direction that the car pulled for some seconds the car is Peugeot 206.

Your suspension is gone, You need overhaul.

WINDSOW:
I do not think you are thinking rightly.
What does your Kuran says about Jihad? What does your book says about killing non Muslims? Or you think we do not have the English version of your law book?
Stop trying to be clever by half, your religion is blood sucking vampire 🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇

Im a Christian think you are a lil bit ignorant on religion here.The Quran is a mirror of the bible, Everything in the Quran is in the Bible and even more, The name Jesus is mention in the Quran more than Mohamed. The problem here is brain watch, even in Christianity people are brainwashed into buying keys and bread from pastors etc.

JAMO84:
For some Nigeria Christians who like to believe that terrorists are working for Islam. Imagine RCCG members going to surround a living faith congregation on a Sunday while service is holding, killing everyone in the church. Would you consider Rccg as part of your religion again?

Any terrorist who goes about killing people, Muslim or not, we curse them. Allah cursed them.
They are not part of us and they will never be.

Alhamdulillah. Thousands of Muslim youths have taken up arms against those miserable terrorists in Borno, Katsina, Zamfara....Muslims in Nigeria don't just condemn terrorists, we fight them with our lives.

The last part of your post should continue. I was old enough to remember the Christmas day blow out in the North how some miscreant thought it was done in the name of religion, until the shyte came home to roast. These miscreants lives around the people identify, name, and flush them out simple. I am glad people are realising these guy are not religious, they are just a bunch of blod suckerrs

StillDtruth:
From your tone, it was clear that you were saying that everyone should brainlessly follow the manufacturer's specifications simply because the manufacturer said so.

Whereas, every vehicle which has come to Nigeria always developed a problem a few months after it has started running in Nigerian roads as lots of people have experienced when they travelled with their new vehicles.

And funny how the manufacturers solution does not work eg the over heating issue which many new car owners always experience after the whatever fails and bypass is the Nigerian brilliant solution which people have gone on for years enjoying their vehicles and never experiencing the overheating issue.

I feel you under estimate our Nigerian automobile products as you hang on to oyibo superiority. And that is what colonialism means for our automobile boys and products are actually doing a good job.

I do not under estimate Nigerians as mechanics, however they know the right thing but the vast majority chose do work with what they have. However the few who do and know the right way are deemed too expensive. How many of you will take their cars to radautoworks on here or top cars in PH. You are here talking about cars and you know next to nothing about cars, all your utterance are that from a palm wine bar.I have gone fru your post or created thread by you all got to do with religion, you do not have on thread on the Auto section but here you are embarrassing yourself. You who do not even know the year your car was manufactured or your Engine capacity all of a sudden you speak for all Nigerians.
You are here talking about Overheating, I suspect you are calling 2015 car brand new in Nigeria , that is 10 years OLD. And Nigerians magic the odometer. Let me tell you, vast majority of the newer cars have Electronic thermostats, so tell me how are you going to bypass that Bro if ur degree or interest is in Religion stick to it, don't delve into Engineering and you know next to nothing about.

StillDtruth:
Clearly you are over exaggerating. A write off car is sold for spare parts. It's obvious that you are not a Nigerian and if you were, you have been colonized

AHah this is funny, dont you know,60% of cars sold in Nigeria are insurance write offs? let me make it easy for you, any car with a structurer damage is a write off, they sell them to Africans in good faith as for parts but of cos we fix them and resell them. A car with damage to any of the chassis part is a write off.Why do you think people advocate for VIN check go to the copart website or iaaa website and see what's on auction

fineboynl:
i have tested them both on leaking radiator that was causing overheating. Water boils and expands real fast. But coolant boils less and take longer time.

Once a small amount of water leak from radiator the vacuum creates an explosion pressure as the water boils.

Despite the fact we might have inferior coolant in Nigeria. The coolant is still by far better than water.

I think you miss understood what the coolant is. Ready mix coolant is 50/50.If you buy a concentrated one then you have to mix it with water 50/50.The cooling system is a vacuum. When the coolant expand it is meant to go to the expansion tank aka reservoir.
The 2 basic functions of coolant mix is reduce boiling point and anti rust properties. Hats if you got an original one.
I bought 25ltrs of concentrated one from London and shipped it back to PH, that's what we use for all our cars.

StillDtruth:
Is there any car user that is putting water instead of fuel into their fuel tanks?

If Nigerians were to go by manufacturer specification many vehicles would not be on the road. So this is just you showing that you are still suffering the effects of colonialism.

There loads of people here who I have also met i n person who go by manufacturers specification, but ofcos if your car is 21 years Old I'm sure them lot do not give a toss. How does my statement translate into colonialism of did you just hear about that English 1st time?
Instead of you throwing ur dummy otta the prawn improvement your arguments. make sense

StillDtruth:
Yet I detected the difference and 12years after I am still waiting for the damage whereas my vehicles still bring out water and steam.

Mechanic shops prove that even a car using 5:30 oil still has engine troubles, so your talk is still falled.

You know some people cars are already write offs B$ it lands the shores of Nigeria and they call it new cars, add 12 years to the so called new car, that car has already re-incarnated in Europe.

RichIgboBoy:
are you aware that some people in the states switch to 20w50 during summer?

I dont think you realize I have driven in the west for the past 23 years, stop assuming and stick to your manufactures required oil weight. You guys do to much, its only just now people realize there is no such thing as tropicalizing your car. You obviously has never been to the US or any Cold country B4.

9jatriot:
The problem I have with coolants in Nigeria are that most of them are just water with colored dyes. Anyone knows if one can get glycol to buy so that one can make one yourself?

This is very true.

franksam209:
Coolant or water anyone you choose to use are all the same,, it doesn't reduce heat or do anything special..
The only thing coolant does is to prevent internal rust like radiator, water pump and hose plugs down to sensors connected to water channels, it prevents them from rusting and makes them last longer

You my friend is wrong, it does reduce the rate at which the liquid increase or decrease.

fineboynl:
We don't have antifreeze coolant in Nigeria. And besides that one is expensive.

Just buy the anti rust to prolonged your radiator life and engine.

Anti freeze, reduces the boiling point of water bross.SO your Engine wont lose coolant plus if you have one of them heat exchange for your gear box like mine does, the over heat might burn it then water will mix with your gear oil then problem go start.

StillDtruth:
Precisely my thoughts. I think engines will die faster using 5:30 oils in Nigeria.

And as we can see none of the users have come to state if indeed using these oils have lasted the test of time for I even travel with my vehicles at least twice every year (until 2019) when japa started. But my cars are always ready to travel and thank God I have 2 trips to do this year. So I am definitely counting to see how long it can go.

when will this sink into car users head that they should stick to what the car manufacturer stated as class of oils to be used.

Babatundehy:
Those claiming to know more than the manufacturer are clearly stupid, it is like arguing about the order of alphabets.
I am going to assume you were handed 20W-50 engine oil when you went to a store or a mechanic and said you want to change your car engine oil, by my two big balls, many oil sellers at 'garages' and even road side mechanics will do the same, the last time i was at Ilesha garage in Akure to change my handbrake lining (a family member keeps leaving it on while driving), sitting at the parts seller's shop, about three people came to ask for oil to service their car, they were all handed 20w-50, they paid and left.
Oh well, this is how it is with many people, they don't have the knowledge about oils, check your engine cap and have a look at the oil viscosity written on it by your manufacturer, that's what you should use whether you live in Antarctica or Death valley, USA, now you might change to the manufacturer's oil grade and notice your car smoking shortly after or even immediately, if this is the case then you must fall back to your 20W-50, this is because the engine is high mileage and or has been abused for quite a long time (with very thick 20W-50).
Some change back to the manufacturer's recommended grade and vehicle doesn't smoke or starts making weird sounds, I'll advise you don't fall back anyways, car is old (16 years) and you have abused it for two years, keep it that way so you don't draw much nearer the consequences of using very thick oils over the years.

It is pathetic.

RichIgboBoy:
una don use Confusion finish person. Lol
I’ve been using 20w50 in my Camry 09 bought 2 years ago. I’m about to service the car and I’m considering 5w30 semi synthetic. What’s your take? Although with 20w50 car runs fine and no check engine light, still bring out little water from the tail pipe sometimes in the morning.

The wear and tear of Engines and the change of sounds is hard to detect cos it occurs daily and you wont know when the engine changes sound. I experienced this with the car I bought for my Dad.

RichIgboBoy:
exactly, I’ve not had any mechanical issue at all with 20w50 and I believe 5w20 and 5w30 is too thin for our climate.

What is our climate, is it hotter than san Francisco?

BlueStripper:
The usual rambles of an IPOB, very inconsistent dimwits.

Like I said earlier, if you don't like Nigeria, kick the bucket and let us continue to develop our nation without unpatriotic elements..

Your demise won't change anything. So do the needful.

ahhaha nah you are now wishing death, this is rather getting very interesting lol wow the tributes of a pained broke assssss.

BlueStripper:
Heathrow airport was shutdown due to power outage yesterday, why didn't you call for the head of king Charles?

Who cares about the Pound Sterling? Like I said, unpatriotic elements like you don't deserve to live.

If you hate this country so much, then do the needful. Kick the bucket!

Oh I thought I was Ipob, you keep migrating from you warp ideology, Go back to your sale and buying of USD in Nigeria, lets test your level of Education.

BlueStripper:
Gradually, you are revealing your true identity.

Nnamdi Kanu your lord, saviour and king also holds a British Passport. He is currently incarcerated and charged for treasonable felony.

Because you have a British Passport, you think that gives you the right to badmouth this country and always project it in bad light.

Check well, you are a gang leader in Peckham or the street pig loitering Manchester.

Your hate for Nigeria will consume you and your fellow IPOBs. Like I said earlier, if you don't like Nigeria, kick the bucket.

It's simple.

Now I can confirm you are o ne pained man and drunk. Im not your problem, go and deal with those you elected into power,
Just so you now, £100 is N205000 today,You can hug transformer if it hurts.

BlueStripper:
Frustrated IPOB. I have given you the enough time to showcase your ignorance to the world.

Like I said earlier, if you hate this country so much, then kick the bucket.

It's simple.

Oh Now I am getting really confused here, I am Now Ipob ,can I please ask you a honest question, Did your Mum drop you on your head when you was born or you just have Multiple personalities? cos on one hand I'm Nigerian on the other hand I'm Ipob, It might interest you to know I also hold a British passport too. So Dwarf which one is it

BlueStripper:
It is important to note that dwarfism, or skeletal dysplasia is insignificant in Northern Nigeria. You find a lot of dwarfs in Southern Nigeria where you and your fellow IPOBS dwell.

Ahaha, You lack Exposure, The dwarf in this context meant you are intellectually dwarfed,
Bro Foxtrot Oscar and go and play with your kinds

Bmaster:
this government and its supporters are out of ideas.
U guys are clueless from the start,DEAL WITH THAT !

That guy is filled with cocktail of expired narcotics

People still dey move raw cash this digital age

I'm surprised, These people brains are as wet as BlueStripper's brain.

BlueStripper:
I have posted facts to counter your poor economic misconceptions. You can only deceive your fellow ignorants or Biafrans.

The stench of hate and unpatriotism oozing from your vocal cavity is enough to brandish you an IPOB.

Regardless of how much you hate this country, you cannot change the fact that you are Nigerian. If you don't like the country, kick the bucket. Simple!

Come on dwarf, which is it, Nigerian or iPob, make up your mind plz so we know what we dealing with.

udosam:
I drive a Camry 08 4plugs

I noticed a wobble on the leg from the front passenger side. This happens mostly when I have accelerated now cruising (coming downhill) without matching on accelerator. So when I want to accelerate again I feel those damn wobble otherwise car accelerate just fine.

I have change the shafts (first I changed the outer ones of both legs) then when it continued I went to change the inner shaft cup too. But I still feel same thing.

I called a second mechanic I trust to drive and feel but he said car is fine and accelerate fine and that he didn’t notice of feel anything.

But when I drive I feel it and it even makes a wobbly sound too.

I have done wheel balancing and alignment too.

Don’t know what else to do. Pls my experience engineers help me. What could be wrong?

Do this simple thing
Jack each wheel up and check that by wiggling them at 3 o clock and 6 o clock, If you are confused take ur tyre look at it as a wall clock put both hands on it in position of 3 and 9 o clock wiggle it then do 12 o clock and 6 o clock wigle see if there is a play.

BlueStripper:
Now you refer to them a silly countries? See what hate can do to your soul?

Zimbabwe's GDP in 2024 is estimated to be around $36 billion.

Lagos States GDP in 2024 was N27.38 trillion (approximately $18.25 billion).

You are a lost cause and a hate filled minion. You know nothing about the economy of the country because your heart is filled with hate and wickedness. That's why you can't succeed in Nigeria.

The only place you will ever succeed is your "Biafra"

Look at what fake drugs ha caused, cos i do not align with your wack Economic pretence I am no Ipob this is how we know ignorant people,a wee look fru my post and profile would have given you a clue of who and waht you dealing with.Clown

A simple Google search would have helped you, but no, you are an accursed Ipob. You see no good in Nigeria except your imaginary Eldorado called "Biafra".

ahahah This guy is the full product of a clown, I know there re countries who has done so however these countries aint shyte.The Economy of Lagos state alone is bigger than each of these silly countries you mentioned.
NB,We do not use Dollars in Nigeria and there is no law in Nigeria that supports the use of multiple currencies in Nigeria, unlike these countries listed by yours truly upstairs.

BlueStripper:
I am not responsible for your ignorance or genetic unpatriotism. Go and order your fellow Ipobs around.

Once again I did not expect you to name any, however I had to give you the benefit of the doubt,
Lazy youths like you will always come on line and spill their guts as if they are making sense, I don't even ava clue who they are trying to impress. Stop embarrassing yourself, we got none Nigerians on this platform.

BlueStripper:
Many countries have enacted and enforced laws that help regulate the free trade and proliferation of foreign currencies.

Frontyard unpatriotic element and child of perdition.

Name 4 countries which had done so please
