Please house, my mother's Toyota Camry do short oil without smoking please advice on what to do.

roscong:
Please, what could be the cause of burning compressor coil .

Gbaj:
Thanks or your prompt reply. The ATF was changed a year ago. Have had the knock sensor codes for about a year too. Could it be the tranny filter?

CityNGR:
I know. The replacement o2 sensor I got had the heater element error code

CityNGR:
Don't have that error code

CityNGR:
is cleaning ineffectual?

CityNGR:
I intend cleaning the offending o2 sensor....is that viable?

CityNGR:
I have this issue. Ran a scan only gear slipping and B1S1aging o2 sensor shows up... My exhaust interiors is pitch black....

Eberechi24:
Another the could cause this Engine low pressure :
If your car engine has low pressure, A/C compressor won't start until your car starts moving. If A/C compressor didn't start they won't be cooling.

Meet your mechanic, he should check the engine pressure, if it's low, the should increase it to moderate level. Not too high o

For a 2001 Benz E240 or 320, good oil. When I was driving my E240 in 2008, na 20w50 get me. The sludge inside was too thick one so tay the car will say oil level low and after you top it, it will later say oil level too high. Ignorance was high then on my part.

My 2005 corolla Ac blows hot when idle but work fine when in motion pls house help me me out

sooperrescue:
Bros e, how are things on the other forum. Tell Op my kind of person. Rymco and automedics oil are imported by my very close friends but when it comes to oil for cars, friendship is secondary

legalwealth:
Is it already on Nigeria soil?

Reason for that is because I actually wanted to import one 2008 which was going for 10,000$ myself from USA
around September but due to some reasons and constraints, I had to divert the money to something else so that I could buy say 2010 model later.

Urgent need for a car I need to use for travelling (since my EOD customs issue was discovered around mid October that it can no longer be used for travelling) made me got myself into the mess explained at https://www.nairaland.com/4895806/re-opinion-highly-urgently-needed .

sooperrescue:
Oga, I am already using the advanced full synthetic oil and I don't see any reason to use these type of oil for oil sake.

sooperrescue:
Mayor2013, my oga at the top. I wrote about Mobil 1 for hondas and Toyota. I also advised that duramax should tell everyone to use it for hondas and Toyota and Kia cars. That way, it will serve its purpose. What is on the spec sheets for the atf is not on the can for Ford transmission. I will show you the picture of the can when I get to the workshop. They should follow the path of GLife and rephrase the usage to Japanese cars. You glossed over the meaning of advanced full synthetic oil and full synthetic oil. Will Volvo recommend it for their cars?

thebigkendo:
I doubt if oil type/spec affects the honda maintenance minder.. It's mainly a function of time, driving pattern, speed, engine and ambient temperature.
I stopped using mobil 1 AFS because my engine burns it faster.

thebigkendo:
Can you please explain what you mean by the bolded?
Maintenance minder count down faster?

helpishere:
Sooperrescue asked a question about the ATF. Why can't the oil be used in all Ford vehicles that requires Sp,lv since it's a dexron 6 and it's current. All ATF made from the US always claim to work with the three American car companies in the transmission fluids but a dexron 6 that works on only Mercon V for Ford vehicles is to be wary of. Ford Taurus uses Mercon V. Even Oando dexron 111h claims to work with Mercon V. We don't have to follow the them say crowd, every practitioner must stand up to defend their customers cars. Is Duramax ATF dexron 6, for six speed vehicle? Compare it to Total mvlv. Any oil that claims to work on dw1 should be six speed. Dw1 are for 2010 cars rolled backwards to atfz1.

amywonda:
Would multiple cylinder misfire code bring about “ engine malfunction reduce engine power” message on an engine e60

helpishere:
Ford vehicles is what he is asking for. Why can't the oil work on Sp,Lv Mercon? What about Mercedes 7 speed gear? Can it work on these cars?

sooperrescue:
Good to hear that it worked out for you but like you stated for the atf, you said that you used it on Ford gear. Which of the Ford? It does not work on Ford requiring mercon sp and lv. And like I stated for which you just confirmed, it might be suitable for Toyota cars. But have you tried it on the real cars?

mayorall:
Bros, Be sure your jacket is having issue first, check your radiator and hose for leakage...


Add green coloured coolant for better visibility..


Don't allow him to open your cylinder yet, meet those that fix radiators, mostly called " Agbede" in South West. They can help you locate leakage...


After you are done fixing that then drive the vehicle for a while to be sure the jasket is flat before you agree to fix it.
