Owners Manual? was the vehicles produced for Nigerians Abi Africans? I wont engage u in debate till you go to learn effects of the Weather condition on engine oils
When you engage, play with and see how it works on the field. I would be back to listen, read and digest it. But for now am better off watching

Inspect all suspension parts. Vibration while braking is as a result of uneven Brake disc and worn out brake pads

You're the one spewing trash.. Google is your friend.... Besides I'm not a mechanical engineer hence I read to research it.... The oil I used for my car has never given it a problem stop been gullible


What does the "w" in a grade of motor oil stand for?


The "w" in motor oil stands for winter. The first number in the oil classification refers to a cold weather viscosity. The lower this number is, the less viscous your oil will be at low temperatures. For example, a 5W- motor oil will flow better at lower temperatures than a 15W- motor oil. The higher number, following the “w” refers to hot weather viscosity, or how fluid your oil is at hot temperatures. The higher the number, the thicker the oil at a specified temperature.


Now common sense should tell you we have different temperature from the manufacture country hence d difference in oil which will still be compactible..... The oil manufactured in Nigeria can take care of the cold start.... Hence no need of imported oil....common sense
Your last paragraph is totally wrong. Open your owners manual and read carefully. You will comprehend better. Engine oil debate has been talked though severally on this section

I'm talking about used engine oil, coolant, oil filters, etc

Gazzuzz and the other usual suspects, over to you.

I don't even want to ask the privateers on their disposal methods angry
I store the used engine oil, wait for the popular Lagos danfo drivers to come buy it. How's your danfo doing? Would it like some engine oil as well grin

i have been using it and my car has been fine, how much is the original? and what effect does the fake has on my car? or what is the difference?
You better be careful don't come here and start crying about how your engine got locked. Haven't you seen an oil filter get burst while in use on a car

This bill is very very fair.95% fair. The engine of a cross tour is different from a corolla. That engine when recently priced cost 850k. The engineer has been fair enough not to put in logistics, gate pass fee and other miscellaneous. Kudos to the engineer. He knows what he is doing. We recently purchased a Lexus is350 2006 engine (2GR-FSE) for 1.8million. engine wasn't available in Nigeria

Hello brothers. I have a Camry 07xle . I nought it last Ur Nov. When I drive and I'm about hitting a bend by the time I want to accelerate after I noticed it draggs then moves. I told my mech said it might be fuel pump. Now I'm having issues with the gear after shifting to 2gear it jerks to go to 3 or once the rpm is above 2. It makes a loud noise like I'm raising it before it enters or won't enter to climb hill na struggle . I noticed when the engine is cool like parked for a long time it will shift well even to 4 without wahala BT when its hot all over to even gear 2 na problem. I've gone to meet gear expert they said its 13pin and best I buy a new one cuz fixing is not guaranteed at all. When I did scanning it shows like 2clutches were off and one solenoid not working.. Brothers please what do you advise?

Isn't that a tall order? Even the OP isn't providing information on the car specs. Is it 2.5L or 3.5L engine; manual transmission or CVT?

Good day to you all.
I have a Nissan Altima 2006 model that is hard to start. I did a scan and it showed that the crank shaft position sensor is bad.
I need help from anyone who knows this thing and how I can get it at affordable price.
Thanks.

like ; does the fan roll when the key is in the ignition in 'on mode' position. Or does the fan roll without the key in?
As long as its a cold start fan should not come up unless kazeem has done some abracadabra. Fan should be regulated with your engine coolant tempt sensor(thermistor) based on your coolant temperature. If yours work directly restore back to default mode

Hello all
I have a Toyota matrix 08 S and recently I noticed that on it's own the fan runs for like 1min when the engine isn't on. A mechanic told me its normal another said its not that maybe its due to electrical issues with the fan. Any suggestions please.
