ONNYX: Thanks Sir, your response is quite appreciated. But in the interim what oil do you recommend for use?
We need to keep the car running before embarking on that expensive exercise. Technically you have been running on 20w50. Remain with it, calculate the oil drop in L/Km top as required oil change every 3000-5000km |

Dailyparrot: I just serviced the transmission and refilled the oil. A few days, the check engine light came on again.
The effect is vibration by the car
Please, is this a mechanic or rewire work Who told you?
Vibration has nothing to do with it |

ONNYX: Mobil 1.
But I don't think it's the synthetic type. The Invoices reflect 10,00 per 4 litre keg. there was never a Mobil1/2.
Mobil1 sold for 12k last in 2015.
Your engines have been running mineral oil over the years. Rebuild or buy low mileage engines and monitor your oil changes religiously.

ONNYX: I have a few Hyundai Accents bought brand new in 2010. All of them have crossed the 150,000km mileage.
We noticed that their oil level drops considerably after servicing even when there is no leakage.
Our Mechanic is suggesting that we adopt an engine oil with thicker Viscosity and then add oil treatment. My little research reveals that we are better of with 10W 30 since the engines are old and operating in the tropics.
Can someone please provide us with some guidance here?
Cc. Gazzuzz What oil has your mechanic been using? |

Thurmieee: Hello Mr gazzuzz Please I just change my hond civic engine and it brought these codes..... Car isn't firing like it should Also the fuel pump misbehaves but if rewire come touch touch some fuse it'll work All the sensors throwing codes share 2 common things.
Sensor ground
+5v
The electrician doing touch touch should stop doing touch touch and find where the voltage is getting partial contact.

Please what's the price range of an 05 Corolla front hub? Between the toks and OEM, which would you recommend? you will not find an OEM Hub, but bearings that will require special tools to install them. New OEM is always a better option if you can afford it.

NikolaValenti: Hello all, I recently discovered a new product, this steam cleaner sanitizer. With the help of this equipment, house cleaning becomes times easier and faster, and most importantly much more effective. The steam generator does an excellent job of removing mold marks and can simplify the process of removing limescale. Combined with detergents, hot steam can be used to remove rust stains and urine stones. All in all, it is a very useful piece of equipment. Do not click link |

Unseen: Oga this sensor is still giving me issues since ooooo.
I have changed both sensors on the manifold yet the issue persist.
If I connect the manifold pressure sensor, the car will stop raising current (I don't know how to explain that)
If I disconnect the Manifold pressure sensor, the car will be okay, but the plugs will always get filled with soothes in short drive.
I am no longer enjoying the car. Remote diagnosis will not solve this .
You will need a scan tool and live scan |

I have a Pvc and I will be voting for the first time next year. Remote diagnosis will not be easy.
But if you can obtain the pressure values in the high and low side under the following conditions.
1. When the AC is initiated.
2. After running for 15mins
3. Immediately it cuts off.
Indicate engine coolant temp and engine rpm on each of those conditions. |

dru23: I asked you earlier if your accent was a USA spec ... I didn't get a response ......
But after digging , I found out that it is not a USA spec .. It seems you bought it in Nigeria via Dana Motors.......
The USA spec is mainly a 1.6liter engine , very reliable and strong engine ....... While urs is a 1.4liter engine those engines are design for 3rd world market in my humble opinion .........
So in essence if I do end up buying the compressor from the USA it might not fit your spec ...........
For future reference when buying cars ... Always try sticking to USA spec .. They are usually built better and last longer ..... Ever heard of JDM? |

Blessingonye: Thank you all for your contribution. I appreciate.
I actually called a friend who works in Stallion motors and he gave me a contact of one of their technician.
The guy visited my house, looked at the construction the Kazeem did and told me in the long run it may have an effect on the engine as already postulate. Be he said I could drive the car like that for like 4 months till like November, while I save up to change the compressor and all the welded pipes. He gave a budget of N250k for the compressor.
BTW, if anyone has a better option on price for the compressor I am open to look at it. I stay in Lagos but can pay delivery if the price is better. I no be Cubana oh. Make una help me get better deal. Peace. The gods told him? Or he calculated it based on scientific means.

THOP: Oga Gazzuzz, please i need your help here on my 2005 Toyota Camry (Big daddy). I noticed my car drags when i engage the transmission but later picks when the vehicle gains momentum. The draggy movement repeat itself anytime i want to start moving. I diagnosed and the error code i got was P2770(Torque converter clutch solenoid circuit high). After this, i took the vehicle to my mechanic who advised we should change the transmission fluid and filter which we did. It worked well for a day and the stalling started again. Kindly advise Sir. Are you sure you have the right gearbox in the car.
This refers to a missing part. |

Blessingonye: Team, my 2017 Hyndai Accent 1.4 liter AC began to have faults. I felt it was just change of gas but when I went to an AC mechanic he said it was Compressor and Condenser damage and I had to change it. He searched for the compressor and brought on compressor he said was manual type and fitted to the car using what looked like an Iron made slab as the base to make it hold onto the compressor space. After he change the condenser. I paid N90k for the service. But after test driving I found out the car draggs and began to consume much more fuel. Looked like a heavier size compressor was used. I return it and he said he would change the compressor. He now used a second hand one that he said was removed from a Corolla to fit into the space with another iron locally constructed place as a base. But till now, the vehicle drives different. It seems like it's carry a heavy load and the engine sounds havier when I accelerate. Please what can be the cause. The car I brand new and I have never had any issues outside routine service and it's frustrating. Please can any one assist. Does anyone know the cost of a direct replacement of the compressor and if there is another solution. The original one was a n automatic compressor this is manual. Is there any difference? PS- I stay in Port Harcourt. Thank There are 3 ways of solving this problem In Nigeria
1. The straight and narrow way.
Buy a brand new compressor, new condenser, and new pipes (yours have been modified and welded) Budget ₦800k-1m
2. The Straight way.
Buy a used compressor (same type) cut and weld your pipes back to former design. (No one will give you a guarantee on the compressor in Nigeria) budget ₦100-150k
3. The crooked way.
Buy a used (semi automatic) compressor usually found in engines with low displacement e.g The Yaris, Suzuki toys, and even the older Rio or accent models. They do not actively engage the engine when the clutch picks up and that eliminates vibrations and stalling. Cut and weld your pipes to fit. A plate might be used to ensure it fits. you will not get a guarantee on this compressor.
Budget ₦100k

alphabbey1: Check Ebay.... just focus on seller with 99% ratings and get someone to help you buy and bring it here to Nigeria.... Ensure you buy brand new, Tokunbo compressor is a waste of money... avoid automatic tokunbo compressor like plague....... Unlike Toyota, any Hyundai accent or Kia Rio compressor (2012-2017) will fail before 50,000km.
A used compressor is always on its last legs and worse if you do not know the mileage.
