Looking for the probable cause of this tire explosion?

I've never experienced or seen one like this where it exploded in radius.

Thoughts?

afoife:
what if it happens in his workshop...?

Lol

Update on the situation.

Looked though the engine bay and saw a couple of loose wires,

Also noticed alternator wire was looking corroded,

Called my technician yesterday and we changed the wire from the battery head to alternator, replaced a couple of corroded wires, fixed a couple that had cut (dont know why) worked till 10pm last night.

Triangle & controle defaillant are gone now, used the car all today though haven't had time to re-scan.

Oga Gazzuz, av observed an O/D Off on my clusters, what indication is this? Its a 1999 Toyota Camry sir

agabusta:


The vehicle is on leveled surface. Maybe I'd go for extreme sludge, any special way to get rid of this?

Pls how far with the delay after gear change? My mech said its the gear sensor, which we have changed on two occasions but the delay is still happening. Quite brief anyways, but on the highway it irritates me when I have to count 1,2.. before the car takes off.

agabusta:
Thank you. I have further enquiries pls. Honda Accord 1998, what can be responsible for this. I Sometimes I check the engine oil with the dip-stick and it indicates low oil, I may check it later the following day or day after and it would be above the max line. There was a day it didnt even touch oil and I was alarmed that there was no oil there, and didnt drive the car but checked again later and behold it indicated oil.

There is no consistency at all in the dipstick indicator. And it is quite confusing. Kindly note that as usual, the oil is checked before the car is powered up and after resting well over the night. What could be responsible for this inconsistency pls? A mechanic told me the oil is 'hiding at different places in the engine' , and that i should not worry. But how can I not worry when I check oil measurement and it is low and I'm not sure if it is actual low or 'oil hiding' low

Also, after the car engages to a lower gear it delays for like 2 secs before picking speed as it was supposed to pick immediately after changing.

This kind of post coming from a so called chief engineer of Nairaland is too shameful. So oil short by 3 litres was caused by the type of oil!
Your dishonesty is irredeemable.

I rest my case

Yes you should....... Train him and offer counselling. This mini-apprentice scheme, might be what would keep him alive........

Suicidal thoughts is not a life sentence......

Benosky011:
I know say as a car dealer, you may not like what I posted. But inside of u, you know what I posted is true.

However, thank you for ur advice.

Benosky011:
Do you know that most cars you see at Berger and most streets of Lagos had minor accident but were worked on before keeping them for sale.
What the dealer's do is to go and buy from the owners of these minor dents at a cheaper price at a warehouse, Behind the car up and display them for sale.
I never discovered this place until I came to buy my car. Surely, that's where you know the true condition of the car you are buying.
But at the Berger there, most sellers adjust the Odometer, repair, or even change one thing or the other.

Call my number and I'll take you to select ur own car at a cheap price.
For instance, at Berger, Toyota Camry 2004 (2.4l) is sold between 1.8 to 2m. But I bought same car (luckily, no dent was on it) from the warehouse at 1.550. Saving a whooping 250-350k.
You can join me today. Many auto dealers come there to buy too and sell to you.
Call my number today (07030517927)

Lexusgs430:
Guarantor must have responsible posts? What are your parameters for judging responsible posts?

Some people are 2faced, in certain days their post are eccentric, on other days quiet embarrassing and on other days, a professional approach is attached to their posts..........

Life is too short to always have a serious face on our posts....

Really running a record marathon here, Mr, keep the balls moving.



Wanted your opinion on purchasing a car from auctionexport cause of their unbelievable prices or stick with the Nigerian used rides? Appreciate.

Finally I have a problem

I'm in Port Harcourt, I decided to use my Peugeot 307 this morning after parking it for a couple of weeks,

Probably because of the rains and cold (or maybe because she's angry I'm cheating), after a few seconds of turning it on, I got that evil warning triangle on the Dashboard with the words "Control mot. defaiillant".

I tried changing language back to english but the control buttons on the radio refused to work.

In the absence of simple solutions, I went to dig out my pp2000 and scanned.

It printed out 10 pages of errors, most where explained (lights, horn etc) but the ones I'm suspecting for the "defaillant" are as follows:

P0485 - Fault fan Assembly Function
P0335 - Engine Speed sensor signal fault
P0130 - Fault Upstream oxygen sensor signal
P0336 - Engine Speed sensor signal fault
U2000 Remotely controlled triggering : main triggering signal reception fault
P1693 - Fault: piloted engine stop and start (DAMP)
P0121 - motorised butterfly fault: incoherence of signals 1 & 2

Please which of these could cause the triangle?

I drove out to fill up with fuel and returned, it was still there and and the drive was largely okay though I parked it after.

Is tachometer synonymous to odometer.

odometer is the mileage counter.
