Thanks. I'll do that

You're welcome!

Pls house help! My car, 2008 Honda Pilot recently brings out blue smoke from exhaust when I accelerate. I recently changed engine oil, that was on October. I used Hardex 5w20.
However, I didn't use the car often because I wasn't around. It was mostly packed.
NB: I used the same Hardex 5W20 earlier & didn't have any such issue.
Aside the blue smoke coming out from the exhaust, no other issue seen.

What could cause the blue smoke coming out?
Do I need to change the oil again?
What should I do?

Thanks

Yes...change the oil.

A neighbour had similar experience couple of years back when he changed the oil to Mobil 2000, the smoke stopped!

Goodluck to you!

AlphamaleTech1:
Yea

AlphamaleTech1,

Is this all you have to say?

Bigsunny01:




And if de fan keep working dis way without removing de battery terminal to make it stop won't it have any effect on my car?

The effect will be on your car battery, it'll rundown.
I suspect the 'fan relay' is bad and should be replaced.

Good luck to you!

The best things in life don’t come easy, but those things are the ones worth the sacrifice

Let me share a bit of my Chateau Story for the fresh starters.

The truth is success is not easy. Hardwork, dedication and resilience are some of the key ingredients to achieving success.

When I picked the land to build, I told the agent what I wanted and he gave it to me. I wanted a land in a very peaceful community that I can shape into something I wanted.

Few days into construction, a strong politician came and claimed my plot is in the middle of the road leading to his house which is third house to mine. The next plot to mine belongs to a retired army Colonel.

I decided to approach the agent to talk to Colonel to see if I can buy the plot to create a new access road into the plot to serve me and my neighbour.

We eventually reach a compromise and I had to buy the 5th plot for the colonel which is quite larger than the plot taken from him.
I went ahead to approach a friend who had over 1 acre of land on the proposed new road to give some setback to allow us create a new road. He eventually gave out ones and half plot to create the road. I gave out half plot.

To ensure no one build on the proposed new road because I’m the first person in the community, I decided to grade a 2km road, install 7 electricity poles including wires; setup boundary lines and worked with landowners to properly delineate the plots on the street so that no one build past the boundary.

About this same time last year, we recently dredged a 2km stream for flood control and to aid free flow of water.
In January 2021, I facilitated the procurement and installation of a 500kva transformer from my positive connections on installment and we got it commissioned late September.

All these were done to achieve a beautiful home of my dream.

I could start by complaining the seller is a fraud. He sold me a land without a road. I’ll show him the stuffs I’m made off because I’m not stupid.

I decided to have fun with the experiences. I’m sure it’s an experience many homeowners can’t share

You can either make a difference or make noise/excuse. You can’t make both.

________
The Positives

>>> It earned me more respect in the community of over a thousand residence.

>>> I got additional 4 acres of land that’s only accessible from my plot during the land reclamation for cheap.

>>> We were able to build a better community where people don’t just wait anymore to do what’s right and just.
Last year a young guy that I’ve never met spent over N7m on fixing the over 5km community road. He said “I’ve heard a lot about you” and even gave my street the utmost priority during the road repair work

________

In life, reaching our goals is not going to be easy but it’s definitely worth it

This is my chateau story.

This is massively apt...
The sky can't be your limit!

Just that sometimes you need to allow your client/customer have the final say!
Not because you're 'stupid or foolish' but for the sake of 'a good name'!

Good morning bro, I think we are going to overshoot the duration by more than a month. We have been having delays with this work, delays not caused by our own making. We have had to wait for an extended period if time for the approvals to be concluded.

We wont work today because of some other approval issues being resolved today after we were served demand notice to pay some money to the local government. My workers are sleeping at home today.

Cement, iron rods and other materials have been going up in prices while we wait.

Thanks for your response!

I observed the delays.

Chineke bu ike gi..

Nice work Spyder880,

Do you think the 120 days can still be achieved for this project?

luvinhubby:


Car type and year?

Good question!

I co-ask too!!

dayjeee:
I need advise people. Have never own a car. Wish to buy Honda civic as my first car. I saw one nigeria used civic 2008. Seller said it was bought brand new in 2009, is it advisable to buy a nigeria used car bought new in 2009?

It's not advisable!

Don't buy it.

bennyflipy:

Thank you so much God bless you.

You're welcome!

Good luck to you once again.

michlins:
not really sure. Nigeria has never been easy from day one.

Sometimes I think it's easier now sef. Take for instance, you can get jobs from strangers via Nairaland,an opportunity that never existed then. With more people earning better than ever, opportunities have increased tremendously. Before now, building has been reserved for the elites and they build once in a while. Right now, every Tom, dick and Harry is building even if it's "kobo kobo" project

I agree with your submission.

It is easy to make money now, just acquire the necessary skills and meet people who need your solution.

bennyflipy:

Thank you for this




How do i answer this contribution to knowledge question

...from your 'Findings'.
...from your 'Recommendation'.
...from your 'Conclusion'.

bennyflipy:
Good evening great minds, I'll be having my Msc thesis external defense next week, I'm really nervous. What are the possible questions I should be expecting

Congratulations!

There are no exact questions to anticipate.
Just explain what you did,why you did and how you did.
Emphasize on your "Discussion'' and ''Conclusion'' .
This is your work, so you must own it.
You are responsible for everything you did.

Addendum: Endeavour to maintain 'eye contact' with the External Examiner!

Good luck to you!

Abuja

If you can locate Kugbo mechanic village in ABUJA, ask of Tony.(He is a Honda wire specialist).

Good luck to you!

whyteone:
pls I need help here!

From my experience,there are 2 possibilities:

1) If your dash board shows a blinking 'D' sign then see a 'gear specialist' immediately.I suspect gear sensor problem or even fibres!
2) Check your ATF in the gear box to ensure it's not below gauge and feel it to check if it's due for replacement, could be reason for difficulty climbing hill and car may roll back if on a hill even with the gear on drive!

Good luck to you!

Born2conquer:

Me i no talk igbo o
I said northerners and southerners which encompasses both the Igbos and Yorubas.

I do not understand your question but HAUSAs do fight for their own to the core while we southerners love the “I want to be the only Successful one in my family” mentality.

If an hausa man decide to tell his brothers about a vacancy and another southerner in the same office decide to keep mum about such opportunity, is that nepotism?

An hausa man will see an opportunity and invite as many people as people, southerner will see such and keep such opportunity to himself, is that Nepotism?

An hausa man will go any length to offer help and assistance to anybody that can speak his language but a yoruba man will act like You speaking yoruba to him in an official gathering is yoh being rude, is that NEPOTISM??


A northerner was allegedly arrested in Saudi Arabia for drug and every influential northerners, governors stood up and pressured the government to release her while another Lady was detained in Ivory Coast and nobody from the south (except david) spoke for her, not the governors, not the influential people and not the people from her state spoke out, is that nepotism??

We still have a very long way to go if we do not start showing unconditional love to ourselves in the south

Very apt.

Born2conquer:

Staying in the north opened my eyes to a lot of things, if southerners can be as half as kind as northerners, we would have gone far.

Pure water is still 100naira in Kano, Tfare within the city is between 30naira and above.

Education is totally free from nursery to secondary.

Hausa man become successful and his goal first is to make sure he transfer the success to his siblings either by getting them jobs in same company,ministry or establishing them in his line of business. Reason why we complain of segregation sey na HAUSA full most Ministries, igbo man no go share employment update give e people, yoruba man go wan sell Employment slot, hausa man go dey fight for e people.

Zero police and EFCC harassment here

The truth is not bitter,only that people are bittered by the truth.
Some of our 'Southern folks' don't want to hear this your narrative.They prefer the usual 'jangolo narrative' that the 'North' is marginalizing us!

It’s not “perfect” for the Acura. It’s just okay for it.

FEGEITOK:
Dangote is 3,700.00 today
BUA is 3,900.00 today

Thanks for the update!

Which location?

DrGoodman:


Tell us the southern firm that refused to do the Lagos to Ibadan highway?

Tell us the name of the southern firm that is in charge of fast clearing of goods from the wharf? Because delays in clearance = Higher cost of imported goods.
We need to know the southern men and companies doing shoddy jobs for the Federal government roads in the south?

I even understand that Julius Berger slowing down the second Niger bridge is being remote controlled by one southerner

Help us blame the south properly for the problems of the south.

What the south has in abundance are educated illiterates like this poster I am replying.

I don't need to school you!

Next time you can do better by making your point without an insulting remark.

DrGoodman:


Your head must be paining you, if not you won't be making the post in bold.

How many checkpoints will you have to settle police and army between abuja and onitsha, with the long queues and unnecessary delays

How many thousand potholes will your vehicle dance through from Lagos to abuja, with the risk of replacing your ball joints, tie rods, shock absorbers and entire suspension on the road

The transport fare disparity is a planned event where the north, through official and non official means are illegally fighting the south for economic parity.

The south is being targeted with economic blockade and infrastructural neglect by the federal government and the same neglected south is blaming themselves. Onitsha ports Has been rendered redundant as they cannot allow it's use. Anambra new airport is being stopped, Enugu airport, Ibadan rails, Onne ports, Seme border, Lagos wharf are all being slowed down by the north for obvious reasons.

Sometimes you need to think before making some statements.

You are very stupid for saying 'my head is paining me'.Can't you make your point without an insult?
Check your records(if at all you have one),majority of the Federal contracts in the 'South' are awarded to Southern Contractors so what stops them from doing the needful.
Idiot!!!
