PHED should be held responsible for this


Rip to the dead..

They should.it is coporate man slaughter

Some people here comenting never seen or held dollars in thier life.

Shantyken:
info on wia to I get trained on this CNC machine pls

atm you got to do with on line for now.

everybody wan leave 9ja, we wey dey outside wan relocate bck 9ja, ok kontinu

saffi in the news two times this week for all the wrong reason which level

Vehicle speed sensor is located in the transmission. Vehicle speed sensors are usually located at the transmission while wheel speed sensor is at the wheel.

Speedometer uses that of transmission (VSS).

ABS uses both (WSS and VSS)

Vehicle Stability Assist uses both too.

If either VSS or WSS goes bad, ABS and VSA stops working. If WSS goes bad speedometer is not affected.

well I have been at work hence my very brief and short reply now Im home
I have read fru your quotes and that of crowly.I dont know how new your own car is so i cant say but Im going to use my car as an example and how its system works hope it thrwos more l ight into the VSS relative to it uses.
Now my car is a 2012 Range Rover sport Autobiography so comes fully loaded this is how the VSS works
Now the Variable Assist Power Steering (VAPS) system uses Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) input to regulate power steering pressures for higher assist at slow speeds, making parking lot maneuvers easier to perform. The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) uses VSS information to determine when a wheel is locked up and releases pressure to that wheel to maintain directional stability. Some vehicles use separate sensors for the ABS, but it is common that the computer uses the information from the wheel sensors to act as a VSS. For example, many newer Ford vehicles use a rear axle mounted speed sensor for both ABS and computer related vehicle speed functions. Instrument Cluster (IC) and Hybrid Electric Cluster (HEC) modules use vehicle speed info for speedometer operation.I have a 2004 jeep liberty in Nigeria this is waht it uses as shown on that pic.
The vast majority newer Vehicle Speed Sensors are of the permanent magnet type, and function much the same as a CPS sensor. The sensors can be mounted either in the transmission case (like yours) or rear differential assembly(Jeep and Ford). Those in the transmission are typicaly gear driven, and those in the differential function by using a trigger wheel mounted with the ring gear. Both style sensors perform the same task.
I hope this is more clearer

My car has this sensor on all wheels. My car has ABS but not VSS.

Unplug one wheel connector and the ABS light illuminates but speedometer still works. My friends car has both VSS and ABS, one of the wheel speed sensor wire broke and both VSS and ABS illuminated. He drove the car for months and speedometer never stopped or misbehaved.

My car has nothing like anti skidding device. Note, VSS is the anti skidding device but my car does have it while it has the sensor he shared.

Those are your abs sensors . The share same build as the speed sensors . Your speed sensor must be at your axle or end of ur drive shaft .

adanny01:
This speed sensor is used by ABS and Vehicle stability system and cannot be used by the speedometer. The reason a speedometer cannot use it is because this sensor will report speed of individual wheels as against speed of the car. Imagine one tire losing complete traction and spinning freely and speedometer reading speed of one tire as car speed but car is stationary.

wrong it is.chk ur car it has anti skidding device fitted

Guys the speed sensors are at the end of the drive shaft, where the spider gear meets it. some in the front some in the back some by the ABS
Down there circled in red is teh bit read by the magnet(speed sensor)

I have done this over the weekend and the problem persist. The mechanic started suggesting removing thermostat, or buying relays to increase fan speed... I am just lost of what to do.

I observed that when I drive for few minutes, the car heats up and temp overshoots. I park, open the bonnet and observe hot water pouring from the reserve water can. I touch the hose connecting the radiator to the engine and it's very hot, but the lower hose is a bit warm, is it possible that the thermostat is stuck? One mechanic has already started suggesting that my gasket is damaged?

Someone helpoo!!

three things

Water pump
Air trapped.
water is not circulating, if your water pump fails that will happen.

LeJeun3:


Yes

Oh dear

LeJeun3:


Just bring your engine and Starting unit.....

Is this the one you was working on?with the bad fuel ?

Chelseafan1:
I have changed fly wheel, I do check my tie rod and ball joint too occasionally, changed gear oil like twice in those years, changed fan belt once too.

Those are like the major things I have changed.

That's good . If you can detect knock on ur ball joint then you ate sage to call for its replacement b4 it puts you down . U should be careful of your gear oils . Especially if U do get a newer car . Some of the oils are lifelong . Fan belt you should check at least monthly . It's degradation is physical so if you spot brakes on it then it's good to change and Oh always ha e a spare one in your car

Chelseafan1:
My manual was written in German, downloaded a translator but the manual isn't a full one. I have tried downloading some online but I haven't gotten any that makes sense.

I will chk the uk site wen I get home see what I can do 4 yah

Chelseafan1:
Mine is Golf 4 1999 model.

U are most likely to use 5w30

If U guys telle the year model of your VWs I can tell U what Oil viscosity to use .

Chelseafan1:
Look at it this way, I can still drive around without changing filter, but I sure can't drive around without changing oil as at when due.



When next I'll service this car, maybe December, I'll change the oil filter.

Trust me if your fuel filter mess you up it won't only be the fuel filter you change . It might damage injectors , fuel pump and put you down in a very dangerous spot at an ungodly hour .
I'm talking frm expirience .
Do you fancy servicing your fuel system on the east West rd about 1130 pm 10 mins from Bayelsa ? ?

Chelseafan1:
I have not changed my fuel filter in those 5 years and this car hasn't broken down even once.

Well you should. Check your service manual to see when you are meant to change
Timing belt
Fan belt
Fuel filter .
You should not wait for them to pack up B4 changing . Preventative mentanance is very important .

Chelseafan1:
Make this straight, 3000 miles or km?

Miles but this must be when and only you use the specific viscosity of oil . For your car.

glolomoh:
I change both together.

To frequent 3000 miles is the specification .

glolomoh:
I don't have that kind of mind. Maximum I have stayed without changing d oil is 9 weeks and it is once.

if i can afford to buy oil of 5k, what stop me from buying a filter of 1k or less ?

My cars are darling and i dont joke with their wellbeing. And, they hardly Bleep up.

Changing your car oil that frequency is doing more harm than good . You should be changing your fuel filter with that frequency cos there are too many dirty and bad fuel arround .

Chelseafan1:
I serviced my Golf 4 yesterday after Church, I changed only oil sef, got the original total 5000 for 4500, I didn't change filter though.

Last time i changed the oil was January 2017 or December 2016 I think. It notified on my dashboard on Saturday that the oil is low.

I might not do another oil change until December 2017.

Oil change without filter change is like U have a long bathe and putting back same underwear .

littlejoe8:
Lady golf3 is a very good & rugged car but that is if u maintain it as due. Don't 4get 2 check ur radiator water level & don't over fill it as it may cos overheating if u do. Be sensitive to the fan 2 know if its working well & always read ur dashboard indicators like ur temperature gauge, oil alarm switch, ensure they are working. If possible keep d car engine away from water as d engine doesn't like water. Service the engine on monthly basis by changing engine oil, oil filter & plugs if possible.to enjoy dis car u nid 2 be sensitive 2 ur engine.

Servicing the Engine monthly might just kill 5 he Engine . Frequent oil change leads to sludge formation . The watch word would be use recommended fluids for your car as specified by the manufacturer .

if they were cultists, then good riddance. else this is truly shameful in rivers state. no more sanctity of human life there.

death to all cultists whether caught or still roaming. it's a perverse lifestyle that should met with equal savagery

It says cross rivers .
Jst saying .

obowunmi:
Hi everyone,

My name is Obowunmi. I've been a Nairaland member for many years now under different monikers.

I started dating this girl early January of this year however we have had too many ups and downs because I have not shown or told her that I have money. She thinks I am just a loser.

When I first met her, she was very nice but not anymore.

Once in a while, I buy her expensive gifts but I haven't divulged to her what I do, the type of job I have or any of that stuff. Maybe this is her reason for being so heartless.

Over the months, we have had one altercation where we didnt talk throughout the month of May. Today, I've had to block her on WhatsApp and other channels because she is just mean, doesn't communicate, would rather spend time on twitter than talk with me.

We have kept our relationship secret so far and my heart is heavy and I think at this point, I'm tired and ready to move on.


I like her. I really do like her. But I dont know what else to do. I dont want anyone to date me for my money so I will not tell her that I am a multimillionaire.

Pls I need your help. I am tired of it all. My heart is heavy. I am ready to settle down.

MayB she found out u are a millionaire and hiding it so she is like go jump with your money . Or mayB she is millionaire too .

torres89:
I was beginning to think no one will notice this

yet some people will still come and insult buhari

U need to return your school fees for thus statement . Even when the original post stated reasons for the drop ? U here naming PMB?

SVR does build but overfinch does body styling!

True dat, our money go reach there soon,I wish I could have that valor or wahtever its called, I looks realy cool, but I dnt have the slightest of xcuse to buy one now if not i for go there

LeJeun3:



Yes Sad enough!

UK has Overfinch
Dubai has Onyx
Nigeria has ...... Loading

RHD to LHD Autobiography

LeJeun3:


The overfinch gives LandRovers a whole new being!

Exhaust tips got me

And 22" or 23" diamond turned rims!

I think with the wheels you got to chose, dont forget the overfinch is a styling outfit, they do not build the whole car, its just like the SVD

LeJeun3:


The overfinch gives LandRovers a whole new being!

Exhaust tips got me

Well what can I say, this is only done in the UK nowhere else, cos overfinch is located here.hand made too.so it would be exported world wide

LeJeun3:


Boss don't go there abeg.....


Coleen Rodney's 3rd finch

Your money must full bank to order the overfinch, my Boss has one, i got a pic somewhere
