Op, just have a competent auto technician do, first, a visual inspection check on your calipers which is a major culprit. Now, since your vehicle pulls to the left upon appying brake then the right caliper(s) and hose need to be checked. Sometimes grease spilled on the brake disc as a result of CV joint rubber boot tear thereby reducing friction which in turn renders the brake ineffective. Accumulated dirt in the right side of the brake system can as well cause this symptom.

It's not all models that display the notification on dashboard. You need an automedic to diagonise the fault. I can recommend a good automedic for you if you stay around Ikeja or its axis in Lagos.

If you have a fault that is not monitored by a sensor no scanner will find teh fault as there are no fault codes for things like if you have clearance in your lower control arm bushing,These need physical examination by someone who knows what to look for.

But if am negotiating a bend maybe a big round-about it doesnt do like that nw

U already told us why it wont behave like that, you car is already bent how will it bend again? cos negotiating a bend means your car weight is going to one side ie sway.

Bobbyjay001:
I think the left brake pad needs to be changed urgently.

If you ever find your brake part wearing unevenly that problem goes beyond just changing your brake pads,You've got sticky callipers,you will have to loosen the calliper and sand paper teh sliding pin and put brake grease on it and put it back then you are sorted.

Have been noticing this, when am on top speed like 120 or 130km/hr and maybe I suddenly spot something or a car in the distance and starts applying the brakes it will look like the car is swinging to the left from the back, if am going on a low speed it doesn't do like this. I drive a Hyundai Elantra

Since when you are moving there is no sign of this occurrence it means its not the death wobble, problem with your steering or bearings.You have a problem with your brake calipers,or you have Oil or hydraulics on you brake disc surface.
How to check.jack you car up, Apply the brake see if anyone can turn that tyre.
try and determine the heat from each tyre if they are same, you might find the wheel thats is your trouble by this.

[quote author=Nyceguy92 post=40137349][/quote]nah .the brake pads if uneven makes you think your master brake is faulty and if indeed you have un even pads that means your sliding Pin is dry or clogged or you have wapped brake disk

cbrass:
You mean it behaves exactly like mine too? Infact I also noticed that when I want to reverse against a sloppy land the gear will be shaking and making sound as if hand brake is engaged

what system of rear brake system does ur car have?

She's under investigation already.


Why did she wait till she got under investigation to start giving interviews. Obviously she didn't care about peoples rantings before now. Or did she?


Stop thinking like a bat.

Stop thinking wiv ur backside, who is investigating her?and when?

Ttalk:
Looking at the pics critically, one will have no doubt that what she seeks by releasing that pics is to attract people sympathy, and trust gullible Nigerians have started in hundred to defend someone who doesn't give a damn about them.

To me the pics is a Photoshop for these reasons:
1.The pics is combination of three different picture [a]forehead up 1pcs [b] eyebore region 2pics [c] below eyebore 3 pics
2. Is it intentional for her to display the tattered hair rather than the use of attachment to conceal the tattered hair?
3. Has it been her tradition not to apply any make up or what the pics snapped at her hospital bed in London?
4. The bogus ear ring is too obvious to sane mind who know Madam's sense of dressing that the pics is an attempt to sway sympathy

Bross dem say dem dey look for her??

Let her tell it to the court not us.

Let her prove her innocence in the court of law instead of using her ailment to appeal to our conscience of pity.

Now you have said it.tell me where she was asked to go to any court?tell me where she was charged or accused and found wanting in court. Stp listening to beer parlour gist.

Yes sir the water level in the radiator always drops after driving

Look around your radiator if you could physically see water dripping from it, also run your hands along both hose to see if there is water leaking, if not,pay close attention to your water pump see if its leaking, try this three

Tunami:
china the fake products republic, hope the company won't be manufacturing fake things.

TBH, its our brothers and sisters who go there and ask them to manufacture fakes and import them back to Nigeria, dont blame the chinese,same chinese manufacture almost everything used in the EU and america,!

Wayo is all over the world and not just Nigerians . . . .My principle is always to add extra 10% to what i do to make up for wayo, however, when the wayo is now more than 10% of what is delivered to me, then, i will scream and bring our the gun to punish them.... But you want be "unwayoed"

These days, na our village JUJU I dey call

Simple.... Relax

*ensure your thermostat is not stuck... Do not throw it away. Conduct years on it to a certain it not being stuck.
*ensure you burp out all the air in the system.
*ensure your radiator is free from clogs and is not blocked internally.
*ensure your fans work when they should.
*ensure your condenser is not blocked.
*ensure the water pump on the new engine is working. Ladipo rats have the penchant of removing such sellable items like water pumps, alternators, kick starters etc on engines and replacing them with junk

Take it slow and steady....troubleshoot the cooling system and don't go haphazard in removing thermostat and having a permanent fan

Can I plz add.there are two things that are likely to be the culprits. You thermostat and engine temp sensor. I think it's a god Idea to change the thermostat and try and change the engine temp sensor.There is a simple test to see if the fault is as a result of blockade to the radiator. Check bot entry and exit hose also check your water pump. Does the Engine short water?

spyder880:
Thank you Sir.

Work has been moving smoothly here in the past two days , iron fitting works for lintels reinforcement already completed. Carpenters doing their own now , more pictures and costs later in the week.

We also bought many more materials, especially for the decking of this house (cement, wood, nails etc.) I need to mold another 10 bags of cement to top the lintels till deck level. I don't think these people made up to the 3,400 blocks I paid for. Seems like some wayo took place.

More on this block issue later.

Weldone bro.it's only a foolish man that will say he can't be cheated.wayoo must dey as far is a Nigerian is involved. Ahaha

noxide:
Thanks

I finally changed the leaking low pressure valve (all remaining gas was lost), added some compressor oil and two cans (390g × 2) freon - hired someone to do it. Ac didn't seem to work, but today it worked very well

We neither used a pressure guage nor vacuum pump but I'm not worried about overcharging since the system takes 740 +/- 25g of freon. Fingers crossed

I'm glad you are now sorted. Weldone

Denn:
OP knows little about cars.

Is the purpose of cat talk not to improve is all?

Is it wrong to point it out?

In the long run, would the OP not be a better person?

But I recon OP is in Nigeria and we should stick to the Nigeria context. However I understand where U r coming from.

Google how to relearn your key to the vehicle.

If you cannot use google, simply pay a key programmer to use Google for you.

that's the best answer, and you can do this through youtube.

sonnie10:
I will try to explain my understanding of the whole issue of dollar restriction as it relates to closing of the London flea market. In doing so, I will talk about so many small details that might seem unrelated but when you add them all up, you will get the clear picture. I will also use some everyday examples so as to keep things simple.

In Nigeria, there are so many mushroom buying and selling business who are into foreign consumer products, these are the ones that are badly hit by $4500 maximum travel expenses by Buhari's government. Unlike before, people could travel with almost unrestricted amount of money they wish to although officially it used to be $10k. Take for instance, a boutique owner who sell assorted clothing from various designers, and also shoes, belts, ties, sunglasses, caps, watched etc, it used to be that they carry their money and travel abroad, buy from different wholesale stores and pay cash or swipe their cards as the case maybe. At the end, all the items are packed and shipped to Nigeria.

However, things are different now, they can no longer travel with so much cash. One important thing that need to be mentioned here is that most of those items were contraband in Nigeria, at least on paper. I said on paper because the goods still find there way into the country. From the airport to the seaport, it is business as usual, except your are not a "business man" or just unfortunate to have your goods arrive when the Oga at the top was desperate for money. Then, the Oga would rather impound the goods to resell for more money. That was and is still the other of the day.

Then comes the new dollar policy, as if that was not enough so many more items were added to the list of prohibited goods. Another issue was that banks could no longer accept dollar deposit into dorm account. The plan is to curtail the demand on foreign exchange, so we were told. So going back to the the boutique owner. He now has two obstacles; one, he can't travel with more than $4500 and secondly, he is now aware that those goods were actually contraband.

So why is his neighbor who sells imported Roofing sheet still bringing in container load of goods every week? How does he get his own dollars? The answer is simple, that neighbor is selling an item(s) that is not under import restriction. The neighbor has a registered business and a registered foreign product by the relevant agencies (soncap, Nafdac) in Nigeria. So, that makes it easy for him to transact (make payment in dollars) through his bank with his foreign partners. He just walks into his bank, fill the necessary papers and shows evidence of product approval by the govt agencies. Right away, the bank transfers what ever amount of money he requires to the partner overseas at official bank rate.

Now, compare the two business men and decide for yourself who is smarter between the two men. However, not everyone has the resources, information and education to go into those formal processes. Like the boutique owner, all types of informal small businesses can never get bank approval for their goods because majority of those are contraband and not registered products by any govt. agency. So it seems as if those type of businesses are in for a hard time in this present govt. Just like the London market, many would close shops.

But when good intentions are pursed with harsh policies, a lot of people are bound to suffer. Therefore, the pros and cons of policies have to weighed; for example the effect on local production, employment and trade balance as against the suffering of majority of small businesses who have for years, seen nothing wrong or illegal about how they have been going about their business. You can image what the reaction of a boutique owner in Nigeria would be if you walk into his shop and tell him that the business he has been doing for years is not legitimate.

Dear sir/Madam, i can see you are intelligent, however don't always believe in these half backed journalists in Nigeria who are quick to draw attention to themselves cos they just want to sell.That market is more than 400 years Old, during the previous Economic recession the market did not fold even though it affected its major importers from Turkey and china so why would the Nigerian Economy Affect the market, the market is still waht it is.TO further rubbish this news the actual part that sells the goods people go and buy whole sale is not in the actual stalls itself ie not in the actual market but in a nearby street called commercial street.There are more than one market in the area who open 7 days and sell different stuff every day why this one, we have Brick lane market nearby as well So my friend do not believe all the lies posted by journalist you can actually ring the market itself and make your own Enquiry and you will be surprised 02073752963 that's the number
From ur analysis, your got it right but that policy might be canter productive as its good for a manufacturing economy, we cannot even refine petrol to which we have loads of its raw materials.
In other news, its a good time for Nigerians who live and work i n teh Uk as they now have Hard currency to spend, the £ to N is 350 today's rate.So its a good time for anybody with British Passport to return back to the Uk to hustle as they will earn Loads.Now you check this maths,since the Uk £ is so strong, its £1 is $1.5 and £1 is 1.4 Euro,WOuld you come to buy stuff like Lace from the Uk even though the Uk do not produce these lace? they come from Turkey,china and India? would it not make more sense to go to these places instead as their currency is still fairer?.back in the days, I use to buy up to 40-50 hand set to sell in Nigeria each time i go home,usually cost me max £4500, I sell them whole and make up N6-N700k,now its impossible.Now a mare £100 phone already cost N35k at point of purchase.These are everyday phones not the top of the range ie £600 worth.So goods coming from the Uk into Nigeria would be limited greatly not cos of this policy but cos of the strength of the British Pounds.So in all E nor Easy to buy from UK and sell in Nigeria these days.the economy is not smiling

So abeg how does E1 6EW qualify as central london?

janellemonae:
Arrogant ignorance. Lived 15yrs in London indeed. Lmao! Even a dullard DT travelled to London once in his life can NEVER call Liverpool street east London.

U have no idea where east London is oga? First u said a mkt (u know nothing abt) is in d SE & is so small its for poor pple in an area nobody goes to. And no nigerian shops there. You said it so proudly. I had to stop u from lying to pple here. You then started dillydallying around d place abt different locations of d mkt. And then someone calls it spitafield and u quiclly went to google and brought link. SMH. All d while u dont even have any idea where im talking abt. Cos if u did u wld know d crowd & composition of nigerians dt shop there. You probably think its a small mkt dt closes down 1 street on sundays, like u see around different towns in d UK. Lmao!

You should ask where Stratford and d Olympic village is. Dts east. If u want to really go east to barking and co, u even have to get off d tube and get onto national rail. Stop brandishing E1 all over d place. I have explained to u dt d market I'm talking abt is just outside Liverpool street station. Its not in E1. Liverpool street is NOT E1. Liverpool street is Eastern central, Google is a friend, EC IS CENTRAL LONDON!!!!!!!!

My friend just cos I'm pointing you to the right direction does not mean I'm calling you stupid.the market is in East London.that's the a dress. Now as U can see it's in East of London. It's not EC.sometimes unexpected arguments pop from lack of enlightenment. Learn to refrain from name calling you might learn more.

IndianaJay:
Why won't Liverpool street market close?

When they refuse to give honest Nigerians visa to trade, thinking they will be flight risks??
