My Corolla 05 makes a knocking sound when I put on the ignition with the engine oil light on. It goes off when throttle down and sound normal.

Also, the engine oil light blinks when car is idle or while braking mostly when the engine is warm and must have work for several minutes or hour.

I have just charged the oil pump thinking that was the culprit but the problem still persist.

What could have gone wrong pls expert in the house?

DMechy:
Oil burns on your Camry is a factory fault. You should live with. The car does not smoke, and there are no leakages. Albeit a knocking sound on startup is as a result of delay in oil supply.

The weight of the new oil could be the cause, a clogged oil pump filter, or a depressed oil sump.

Switch back to 0w40 or 5w30

Am experiencing similar issue with my 05 corolla. Oil shortening but doesn't smoke and I use semi synthetic oil.

Nowing making a knocking sound each time put on the ignition and the engine light blinking each time car is idle or at every braking but mostly when engine is warm.

Pls honourables in the house... does anybody have an idea of how much a corolla 05 Fender is currently sold.

BAZ001:
Guys if you are not on a trip just find a place to take a break or avoid VI for few minutes cos this VIO guys are stopping Corolla, sienna and civic like pure water. Been watching from my office and it seems they have target. So just enjoy your break, they are even working with lastma

Thanks for the info.

Meanwhile, which part of VI is that cos that place looks like Ajose Adeogun

Kanoski:
ok now u are making me scared

I had similar issue with my car 2weeks ago. Car vibrate heavily when AC is on. Rpm rise and drop intermittently distorting speed. Engine off whenever car is idle.

Culprits, one of my nozzle was bad and he changed all my plugs, everything normalized.

am on a 7mins trip now from maryland crescent to cakes and cream opebi I don wait tire she didn't even tell me am gonna wait ooo..feels it's the right thing

Honestly this Bolt of not charging for arrival wait time is a total bullshit. And most of these riders are just unapologetic as some of them do it deliberately and say after all they are paying you.

One slowpoke requested me yesterday evening at Ajose Adeogun. Her number was practically busy for more than 10mins of my arrival. When she eventually picked to let her know I've been calling and waiting, she was dumbfounded and asking me for what. When her brain eventually reset, she started pleading with me that she was only trying to put a colleague through on how to use the app.

[color=royalblue]Let me take out this wonderful opportunity again to apologise to everybody I must have said something bad to on this thread.

Top on the list is Madam Radautoworks. Followed by blackbishop and then felicity. I know I really said a whole lot of bad things to these guys when provoked. I am truly sorry and apologetic.

The truth of the matter too is that these spats made the thread lively. It brought life to it. We can't all be on the same page. If we are, it will become very boring. There must be two opposing forces for there to be a spark. APC and PDP, Night and Day, Black and Red Wire, Afonja and Flattheads etc.

Eitherways, I think some boundaries were crossed. I am not here to debate who started it first. My own is that am apologising for whichever way I must have hurt people with my terrible words. It will never happen on this thread again and in this lifetime. Heck no, some of them were even jokes. So please do find a place in your heart to forgive me both those I mentioned and those I didnt mention.

Felicity, am owing you 50,000 naira pledge on behalf of your new born baby. But the people that are meant to come and pack fish have refused to come. Still find a way and drop your account number anonymously. I will gift you some funds later anonymously. I also owe you two cartons of smoked fish and will deliver it in due time too but anonymously.[/color]

This is so deep...

Change is the only constant thing I know about this life.

Sir its only when d gauge go up n down then it will slow car down and rise up like misfire

It could be the Range Switch.

one of them just scratched me at ikeja under bridge now, I was jejely waiting for traffic light oooo..but what can i do he zoom off to the other side as if noting happened, those guys are something else

Those riders no get joy atal. They need to be tamed maybe with some form of regulations as we are now having them in large numbers on the highways.

That Range is a toks and unregistered. The guy came all the way from Benin through one his friend (one guy on white long sleeve shirt with a black jean) to fix one of the security issue in lag before delivery as he said he already have a buyer. No any insurance yet.

As I was dropping a rider off in one of those street around that Pinnacle. A guy walked up to me to help them jumpstart their car. On getting there, the range had already been towed with a towing van. They just need the car to be on a start mode for ease of movement to mechanic workshop.The wheel by the driver side was dangling as it has pulled off from the tirod.

I had to take them to the mechanic workshop to bring him down for check when we couldn't start it before it was towed down.

I so much felt for the Range guy cos he was such a gentle guy with a razz and aggressive friend whom seems to be in total control of his affairs.

The Range guy was later gisting me that his friend put him into all these troubles if only he had listened to him. He said the car had been in the mechanic workshop already only for his friend to say he is hungry. He told him they should take a taxi or bike to an eatery but the friend insisted they take the Range and come back since the mechanic is not ready to attend to them yet. They've not gotten to the eatery before that incident happened.

pope191:
Dispatch rider

Did you also witness it?

Am still with those guys that own the Range sport.

Infact, those despatch riders are another set of demons we have on the road. The way they ride recklessly is so alarming.

Could you believe that the despatch man eventually ran away but his foolishness made him left his bag containing his ID card and other traceable evidences.

We have been to his outsourcer where we were now referred to the courier coy in ikeja he primarily work with. The despatch landed himself a damages of 250k.

Babadee1900:
Be firm! Tell them you don’t allow eating in your car and stand on it.

For riders who put their legs on the seat or arm rest, I usually look at them and say: No, you can’t do that pls. Case solved.

Don’t be intimidated by your riders, you will know when to bend your rules and when not to.
Keep your car neat, dress well, smell nice and DRIVE not talk.

One star don sure for you!

UcLloyd:
Fuel pump, clean it or change it if u wish. I experienced this not too long ago.

Thank you boss

I think I need to change my mechanic

Jaidooo:
your fuel pump

Thank you sir...

I would have to look for another mechanic cos he's already talking about changing the Valve. Saying that was the culprit that affected the nozzle.

Pls elders in the house. My car (coro 05) jerks whenever i applied brake and even goes off if I didn't accelerate immediately. My mechanic check and said one of my nozzle is bad. He changed it but still persist. What could have gone wrong?

Charlieluvboy:
alright Thanks

Uber accept 2000 upward while bolt accept 2003 upward

eyinola:

Mr Okoro if at all you've stayed in yoruba land for years, yet your instinct still not made you to understand what is called respect, that means, common sense is not common to you.

Awake9ja: how can you appear at a crowd like this and beging to sing "shake bum bum",
guys that is crazy, com'on we are not in a club. that atmosphere deserve a good music devoid of vulgar nonsense.

anybody in his right senses that says dbanj song is alright in this occasion is a tribalist,

i mean what is the meaning in that song that suits the event?
lyrics "i love beyounce, i love omotola, i love
genevive, then shake bum bum" what an insult to the event.

I hope you knew Dbang didn't begged before coming to perform at the closing ceremony, he was rightly choosed by those organizers who already knew is style of music. I wondered on what u really expected of him. Were u actually expcting him to do Apala song abi on a cool Indian love song?
