Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change its shape, area, and volume in response to a change in temperature. Temperature is a monotonic function of the average molecular kinetic energy of a substance. When a substance is heated, the kinetic energy of its molecules increases.

So I believe before your car got to you it has been in a very cold region where the crack first happened, so boss if you don't mind to know the full extent of the damage you can bring it over to open the top to access the damaged and removing the sump to check for metal shavings...

Good day
Please help with this.

Noticed this crack while mechanic was pouring engine oil some months ago.
What is the possible effect of this on the car and what could have caused it.
Bought the car a year ago as tokunbo from US.
Having being using hardex engine oil since I bought the car.
The car is a Toyota Camry 2003.
I can't say if this came with the car when I bought it.

AC is the main killer in this job.

And the only thing I achieved yesterday was paying some good fraction of my bolt debt.

Since yesterday was Friday I decided to drive base on some indicators which point to a bullish out at the end of the day.

Most people would want to go out and get money for the weekend.
Most people working on the island would want to come back home after their usual 1week around their offices.
Demands for humanitarian workers "olosho" is usually every Fridays.
Last opening day for market in the week.
et el.

Put on bolt apps which is uber and taxify. Mind you I didnt go out on Thursdays at all apart from driving to refuel at the filling station. I bought N1k fuel.

Now see how your AC is the main reason drivers are not netting reasonable income.

With approximately N1500 in my tank I didn't want to leave the house unless a request comes in, so, 1st request came in after about 1hr on taxify.

At first I was reluctant but drove to PU believing I could convince rider to go on offtrip since I was owning bolt N12,212. But unfortunately rider disagreed, its was a 3rd party ride. I didnt wanna start my day with paying debt knowing fully well I'm having just about N1500 pms in my tank with no other cash on me. So I drove off. That trip would have ended N2+. But no worries! I was positive to have a good day and I truly did.

The 2nd request came in on uber that would have been my 13th trip on uber for the week. Trip started without AC but as the traffic was building up with so much dust and heat and i notice rider(he) was contious with his phone and was sweating vigorously I then decided to put on the AC. Trip was from Scheme 1, Oko Oba,Agege to inside berger. Trip ended N1900

The next trip came in while I was get to end the 1st. At this time I didnt use AC but was a short trip still within inside Berger. The lady paid N500 still cash.

Drove from inside berger around the FRSC to ADDAS SuperMat Agidingbin, parked in their car lot for about 40min then the 3rd came in, babe was going to Adeniji Jones and trip ended N700 cash.
Still no AC.

I then on the AC a little due to traffic and drove, waited for some minutes with no show, driving to ikeja along a delivery trip to Osborne offshore estate, Ikoyi. No AC still and trip ended N2500.

Atbthis point my fuel indicator was then showing. Drove from there to NNPC b4 falomo. Bought N1500. Drove down to falomo close to the bridge then a trip came in on taxify, destination- Ajah.

Now; lets do the math.
All trips where cash uber trips.
1st trip = 1900
2nd trip = 500
3rd trip = 700
4th trip = 2500

Total = 4600.
Estimated fuel in Naira (N)= 1500.
Which brand of car do you drive.
Do you think a Camry 2003 will do all that trip with N1500fuel
BusinessRe: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by glambo(m): 5:22pm On May 17, 2020
Vision2045:
1. 1500 I think...not sure again

2. Local government is open but be sure who you hand out your cash to.

3. The business is currently in winter...so I will say...

If it's your car.. you go still dey okay small

If na rental .....be careful what you promise to deliver ... 30k (hell no) 25k (No No) 20k (No).. 15k (maybe)

If na HP.... I will advise you wait until biz pickup

Thanks the car is mine.
2003 Toyota Camry is viable for uber with reference to fuel consumption

Something is wrong with your car. Get it scanned don’t let Mechanics guess or throw parts without knowing what’s the problem. You’re supposed to be using between 6-7 liters for that journey.
Have scan over time and nothing is found wrong via scanning.
DD scanning at different place.
Only things that had been change on the car were the thermostat and AC fan

It's because I read with an open mind and can use my brain that's why I am able to see beyond this scam of a story.
You probably are the type that believes witches can turn to birds and that a man can wake up one day and sees loads of cash on his bed,sent by a holy spirit.
I have made reference to the prisons having farm settlement outside the prison yards in contrary to your thought that the farms mentioned are within the prison yards.
I have not said anything about the profit in millions mentioned.
We all know that is an exaggeration from an overzealous staff wanting to impress on the little progress they might b making with the prison/farming program.

Pls, take it cool.

Story for the imb eciles.
How big is the prison yard farm?Not that big because the prison itself isn't that big.
Even at that not all the proceeds go to the prisoner,just a fraction,more like labourers wages.
I don't know what they intend to achieve with this story but they should know not everyone has a cattle brain.
Read with open mind,
The farm settlements ain't with the prison yard.
There are established centers across the country where the prisoners are transfered to based on recommendation from their respective wardens

AutoMoTech:
Chief. If i say I understand that picture ehn. Na lie i lie.
What i'll advice is this.
1. Write down your odometer just before refill.
2. Refill your tank to full tank.
3. drive the vehicle normally till that low fuel light comes on.
4. Note your odometer
5. Refill again
6. Drive till light comes on.
7. Note your odometer reading.



So atleast we'll have 2 test results to work with.
That way we can get an idea of your mpg. Though not actual but close to it.

There is also anoda method i came across. Lemme see if i'll see it
Converting that to MPG, my usage is abt 13-14MPG.

I bought a tokubo Toyota Camry 2003 about 4 months ago, but I notice that the fuel consumptions seems to be on the high side.
I use about 13liters over 60km drive daily. Mixed of city and highway driving.
Attach is the history of my fuel usage. Found this application online and use it to monitor my fuel usage.
Please is this normal.
The consumption is measured in Kilometer/ litre.
From what I checked online (28mpg- 35mpg) the consumption shouldnt be DAT high.
Please what could b the problem
