Can we support this young hardworking Nigerian youth to get back on his feet after losing alot?

He had to drive Uber/Bolt after he lost his job in the Bank due to Covid-19 Pandemic in 2020. Luck shined on him and he met his fiance on the job and they planned their wedding. Only for this unfortunate event to occur on their way back from the engagement.
They have had to sell properties and a car to pay for hospital bills. Although he is recuperating, he can't walk yet because he hasn't fully healed of his wounds.
His wife, an Accountant, who lost her job due to the accident is currently job hunting. Thanks goodness she is back on her feet.

The people that own the Sienna car haven't paid any compensation, rather they are trying to get their car out from the Police station through influence and backdoors.

So any form of assistance that can be rendered to this couple to help them rise up again and start a new life will be much appreciated.
Whether job for his wife, help for him to get justice or financial support to continue his therapy, drugs and stand on his feet.

1. Car reaches operating temperature normally and thermostat works well.

However, on cold days on the highway, the temperature drops down to 1/4 of the scale.

On hot days, it is not so.

Question; is the thermostat faulty?

Or can we say that the cold air is so cold that it removed so much heat as soon as the thermostat opens normally to allow fluids into the radiator?

2. Radiator cap issues.

Honda reccommends 1.1 bar but I use 0.9 bar.

Difference is 13psi for 0.9 and 15psi for 1.1 bar.

I don't have issues.

Is this fine? Or should I revert?

Red and green coolant. First it’s on a Rangerover. Second, what type of coolants are they selling at petrol stations ? Third, the owner confirmed that he used the green coolant on the red already in the car. Like you confirmed with your post, it will destroy the head gasket. So imagine the cheap coolant being sold locally on a V6 supercharged of a Rangerover, you will get a volcanic eruption in the engine and that was what happened

Grupo:
I visited a roadside mechanic to fix my front suspension.

Then I saw his colleague apparently rebuilding a transmission.

I simply asked the guy, "so this transmission is going to work after this thing you are doing?" And he said, "yes, why not?"

I left before he could finish the abracadabra. But I'm sure that the transmission will not work.

He didn't do anything spectacular. He was just using fuel to wash everything.

Do you guys think this transmission will still work?

See pics below.

Hmmm. The guy was driving with a red intermittent coolant level low on the dashboard and according to him decided to buy coolant at a petrol station in ikorodu axis and still according to him, immediately he poured the green coolant after he waited for the engine to cool down, he drove out of the station and he noticed that the car was no longer accelerating like before and the next thing, it stopped at a very dangerous area of the ikorodu axis and he placed a call to our towing team. I tried to call the nearest truck to ikorodu but no one dared to go there. Next was to help them remove the gear from park because he found someone who had volunteered to help with the towing. I tried explaining to them the process but they couldn't get it. Then a police officer called to beg me to come over and assist. This time, it was already midnight. The battery was dead from the constant vain effort to start the car and they did not know where to jumpstart the car. I eventually went to the place and I was there by 1 am and dragged the car to Ikeja with a sienna towing me and the owner driving the car I came with. Though it was not advisable, I had to manage the car with the gear cable lifted up till we got to Ikeja. [b]Except for the sump,crankshaft and one of the cylinders which were still okay, everything else was changed. The block engine cracked and affected the cylinder, the pistons flew out of its place. So in a nutshell, he told me that it was after he put the green coolant into the car that the car finally [/b]decided to stop moving. He said that he was not aware that he could use water instead of the coolant. His friends who were with him in the car confirmed the story.

sooperrescue:
I had a 2015 V6 that we overhauled. The owner was driving with coolant level low and decided to buy coolant and immediately he added green coolant to the red one inside and the engine knocked after five minutes of driving.

Please which of the spark plug in the pics below do you normally use for Kia Rio 2009 models?

sbot:
Dear Gazzuzz,

Kindly help with solutions to these codes on a 2011 Corolla.

1. B1479
2. U0100
3. P1604

Thanks a lot.

ignore the communication code and startability code.

The flow sensor code is because you now have a manual compressor, you will have to live with that. So basically car is fine

adeniranfam:
