camaro:
Can your Japanese tow a Nissan Armada over a distance which is about 20mins drive. But an old benz did it comfortably and was asking for more. The ride was a 190 with 4 cylinders, a 230E to be precise.

kill that classic... you know an Armada's curb mass is approx 2,344kg which is very heavy and only a good tow rated vehicle should tow such mass.

by the way, what that Benz did was nudged the tow line and a change in inertia followed. had that Benz tried to pull that truck up a hummock, the truck will become the tower and the Benz the towee.

Its not about what Europeans or Japanese could do, its about what should be safely done.

by the way, the best tow vehicles are American vehicles and they're the hardest to tow (speaking from experience).

Go away mr too know/i choose to use my letters and numbers d way i dim fit rx and RX/ any diff wit that?,i am still sure of d 220,my boss still got a new rx220 about 10 days ago and i saw it not to talk of my neighbour.goto d grave mr itk.

you see why I say you're an epic liar?
your lie is monumental.

FestacGirl:
You're just going off point,
Do you read my posts b4 u comment ?

he's right, at some point, every machine wears out and have to be retired or they become grossly inefficient. no engine is built to last for eternity. However, you can prolong the longevity, efficiency and effectiveness of a machine by meticulous maintenance (well, except any recent thing that goes by the name "Rovers"

a little knowledge doesn't hurt.

Your lie is monumental

FestacGirl:

koonlay101:
Nope. I did not.

The only thing I did was add coolant to the radiator as it was empty and coolant reservoir cos I noticed it had gone below the low level.

Thanks a lot really appreciate your responses so far. Will appreciate your support in troubleshooting further

abeg no let am far ooo I dey ooo, 'KPOM' thingz

fixed!

koonlay101:
Thanks

I suspected that the mileage has been rolled back as well but I had ran a VIN check on it and the report came clean. As for the Kpom sound, I can't seem to hear any sound or notice anything wrong with the performance of the car except for only the 'check engine' sign that suddenly came on.

did you added fuel to the car or changed engine oil prior to the engine fault light coming on?

GAZZUZZ:
Does it make a kpokom sound at the back?




[size=1pt]kingreign see what you have caused[/size]

sir, the rate at which reported car incidents makes the 'KPOM' sound is alarming, its not only at the rear, its also in front and now inside, this is worrysome ... ;(

besides, it occured since that fvvcking mod, lomomike deactivated his ID

koonlay101:
Top of the morning to you Gazzuzz

I recently just got a 2001 Toyota Sienna CE and everything was in top notch at the point of purchase with 88,393 miles on it. Barely drove it for a couple of days when I noticed the check engine light suddenly came up last night when about parking.

Any ideas?

Appreciate your support.

i can bet your car original mileage is more than 88k miles, its been rolled back. I'd bet my big toe on that, meanwhile did you hear any 'KPOM' sound in the front, engine or gearbox specifically?

chamber2:
mehn its crazy being stranded after a stressful work-day. The mechanic said i should change the engine top and it will stop. i am warry of of spending much money at the end nothing gets fixed- hence i need i better opinion before i start spending again.

the engine rings and gasket were recently changed....and there is no oil leakage. i am suspecting the engine bay is not properly alingned hence d regular belt cut. i am really baren of ideas

bros look at this list ive prepared for you, it will actually do.


LIST OF ITEMS TO CHANGE
1: Kazeem (he isnt suppose to be in this generation, he's only used 12BC generation technology)
2: belt (original belts are quite expensive)
3: pulleys. (could be defective or bennt)

chamber2:
The last one month has been hell for me. after doing all that was recommended by my mechanic, my honda 2009 keep having problem and its causing me great pain and embarrassment.

The TIMING BELT or what keeps cutting at the middle of the road! within one month i v changed it four times. yes, four good times. it will suddsnly cut at the middle of nowhere...keeping me and family stranded begging for help.

i need help urgently as this is causing me pains.

my friends and gurus in the house, what could be causing this belt to cut regularly? pls i need ur help urgently before i run crazy

Does accord 09 use timing belt or chain?
Shrugs... Well, how much did your mechanic buy the timing belts each?
Lets start from there first then we'll tell you what to do.

dukeolumde:
Contact Fogman. He has good ones with Nigerian Maps downloaded for easier navigation on Nigerian roads.

its not about the navigation, the screen controls vital things like the climate control.

AdmiralDru:
I don't have anything to prove to you and would you stop quoting me, i don't have time for this.

easy boy, dont get yourself worked up. I wasnt killed when you mentioned my handle so dont get scared it wont hurt.
Besides, the King is looking for who's gonna mention his handle.

AdmiralDru:
.

is that all you have to prove why a beemer isnt same class with a japmobile?

AdmiralDru:
As you well know, they ain't in the same class.

really? I dont know, educate me pls why do you say theyre not in same class?

guyla:
House, i quite appreciate this forum please my honda civic hybrid is constantly developing fault after fault. Recently it developed engine drop, it occurs very regularly, i am tired of giving mechanics money. they call it one name after the other, some say it is slow-run, others say it is engine drop, yet another still call it break and quench. I am not a pro when it comes to car issues but i am truly tired, what can i do.

Please i need response ASAP

Thank you

do you hear any 'KPOM' noise from the back?

AdmiralDru:
On a more serious note, you shouldn't be comparing a BMW to a Toyota or even a Nissan. Thats an unfair comparison.

please, tell me why i shouldn't and why you feel/think its an unfair comparism?

grafikii:
Hello everyone, I would like to know the likely cost of fixing engine oil leak from a Ford escape 2003 model. The leaks seem to be coming from the timing belt cover area, another one from the pan and oil drain plug.
I would be meeting a Mechanic over the weekend and I don't want him to reap me off with high prices.

I just need a price range for the cost of parts (seals and gasket) and labor.
Thanks

Lomomike, gazzuzz, decotech IdaraCHODB

lomomike gazzuzz decotech idaraCHODB arent magicians. What model of engine do you have in that ford, where is your location?

Stylz69:
KPOM stands for Knock Position Override Mechanism. When the KPOM sensor goes bad, you begin to hear funny noises like Kpom..this is different from the kikiki and kakaka sensors and not to be confused with the grrr sensor.

lwkm na wa for you o...

OP, the 'KPOM' sound might be your rear differential and/or its bushing. Check those areas.

I see you're immature to have n argument devoid of insult.... Good day

Hahaha, I charge my phones in my car......
.. that's the only power supply you'll get in Nigeria these days.

When you go to there offices they will tell you they working on the line but I know it's all lies

Bro, you have servicom, you have news papers, you have radio where participants call in to tell on air what's going on in their area, go and exhaust those medium...
I stay in Kubwa, I've been enjoying power supply... My fridge thermostat control knob is set to medium yet it freezes unlike earlier this year when I set it to fast freeze yet it barely cools due to poor and eratic power supply.

Olden dayz crap






Why not compare ur yamayama venza to ma X4 ....dnt even tink abt it cos ama bury you alive

Let's see how that pile of crap holds its value compared to a Venza. Mind you Toyota isn't making any next gen venza but that doesn't mean it didn't outsell and isn't less reliable than a German pile of crap.

It out sells it, its reliable and durable than those beemers.

DjAndroid:
Have you seen my lagos cleared kia latitude? Very sharp! Factory a/c.

No I no want Ac own, I want kia latitude with factory water faucets.

shortgun:
See my friend, I blame the president because no one is doing his job properly these days cos nobody is supervising anybody.

I am a little close to some of these staff and I know the way they act these days cos nobody is asking questions.

A very important personal in power distribution is in his village as I type this..... He is not even aware that some areas are without light for days.

Okay you say you don't have power supply, how then did you have charge on your device to login Nairaland?
Stop blaming PMB, if you who pay your taxes can't serve as a community police and a whistleblower, forget it. PMB is way too positively busy to start moving round every street and avenues of Nigeria to address workers ineptitude.

BMW or no b1tch

Let's compare your 96 BMW 3 series to a 96 corolla body work and engine. I'm not talking speed. If I wanna kill you I'd simply do a supra or even an altima 3.5S
