He tries to solve all the problems you take to him based on speculation. When a mechanic is in the habit of not using basic diagnostic tools or equipment to properly identify automotive problems before telling you to start buying spare parts. And when, after the first round of spending, the problem is not resolved and he tells you to buy another thing. He’s either ignorantly wasting your money or deliberately fleecing you. He tells you that any obvious warning light on the dashboard of the car doesn’t mean anything. Or, that’s how it is. He does not show you (indeed, return to you) the old part/s he claimed to have changed in the vehicle. When the goal-post of what he claims to be working on shifts every time you speak with him. Especially, when the problems he claims to be working on are not related to the original one he identified for repair. Don’t ever let a mechanic bully you into using that particular service garage. You can have it towed for a second opinion or call up other places for an off-site evaluation. Some mechanics might try to even suggest that you’re putting your family or other loved ones in danger by not having something fixed immediately. When your mechanic uses words like, “You wouldn’t understand,” or “It’s complicated.” Most people don’t know anything about what’s under the hood of that 2004 Honda Accord they’ve had for eight years. They can’t point out the radiator from the alternator or the radiator cap from the dipstick. It’s an unfortunate reality that mechanics can easily prey on. If you’re paying as much as you’re paying for repair work in a workshop they should respect your intelligence enough to explain the problem and the solution to you. When you mechanic says, “I wouldn’t drive that car anywhere else”. This is almost a threat. It’s intended to scare or frighten you into leaving your car there and letting those guys have free reign over your vehicle. If they know that you’ll fall for this, then they know they have a great chance to overcharge you for a bunch of things you didn’t need. Find out from somebody else whether or not it’s okay to move your car, then make your decision. He tells you that the oil-quality/texture, fluid- specs or recommended pressure for any particular system of the car as defined by the manufacturer “doesn’t really matter.” BY : KUNLE SHONAIKE(automedics).. |

This piece is necessitated by the unprecedented number of calls and subsequent enquiries that the speech I gave at a recent Nigerian lubricants blenders’ event, which was published on this page not too long ago, excited. Many who called wondered aloud what the fuss was about using any particular type of engine oil in their vehicles. Let me start with a simple layman’s explanation of why you need to use the right engine oil, indeed the very grade that’s specified by the manufacturer, in your automobile (especially if the vehicle is a high-end one or if it’s not older than eight years). Modern automotive engines are not only finely cut in the intricacies of their design, but are designed with materials that should be fully treated as instructed by the manufacturers. This is why the “religious” observance of the manufacturers’ stated grade of engine oil is very imperative. What is the meaning of the SAE, Society of American Engineers recommended, grading (like SAE 20-W-50, SAE 0-W-40, etc) that you see on the containers of engine oil? The first numeral, specifically, say, the “20” in the 20-W-50, refers to the minimum environmental temperature under which the particular engine oil should be used. It’s obvious that with this temperature classification this blend of oil can only be used in a tropical environment like ours here. However, the “0” in 0-W-40 indicates that the engine oil with this temperature classification can be used in regions of the world where the temperature falls to as low as zero degree Celsius. The “W” simply stands for winter; and this is why I tell motorists in Nigeria not to really bother about whatever you see between the SAE up onto the W. Our weather here cannot go below 20 degree Celsius, so none of the oil can freeze in our environment here. The most important part of the engine oil grading that an average motorist must adhere strictly to in Nigeria is the last number after the wintry “W”. That number indicates the level of the refinement of the oil, which whether you use the oil in Nigeria or Siberia easily defines its discernible viscosity or thickness (“50” is obviously thicker than “40” and “30” is quite more viscous than “20”). So, if the manufacturer specifies that you must use an oil grade with SAE 5-W-20 (like most vehicles from 2012) because of the thinness of the cuttings between the moving parts of the internal fixtures of the engine and the crevices, and you decide to use the most popular synthetic oil in Nigeria, which is SAE 0-W-40, because of its brand allure. What that means is that the thickness of the oil is such that your engine will not be properly lubricated because the oil of your choice is so thick it cannot pass through the thin spaces between the engine’s moving parts! This scenario will even be more stressful on your engine when you’re starting the vehicle either in the morning or after it has been parked for a while. This is usually the time when wear-and-tear occurs the most on engines. The oil would have settled in the sump at the bottom of the engine. So, when you’re starting the vehicle in the morning or after a long rest the speed at which the oil gets to all the necessary parts of the engine will be, amongst other factors, a function of consistency with the manufacturer’s specified viscosity grading. In conclusion, just look at it this way: water and palm oil are both liquid substances, but if subjected to the same pressure of movement, water, which is far less viscous or thinner than palm-oil, will move faster. source: http://automedicsafrica.com/new/use-5w-20-5w-30/ |
