Why give the engineer and yourself headache. If you do a simple maths and look at how much you have spent, is not just enough to get you another engine? 3 cam shaft sprocket. You would still buy 10 pieces |

Go and replace your engine. My candid advice. Don't thank me now but thank me later |

coccoduck: well, here in Libreville, I don't have access to harp gas, but I think that the most important thing is to pull a vacuum in the system before putting any gas, because of moisture, in the air that will mix with the refrigerant oil to become an acid, of course we all know what acids do to metals, so I think that the brand of gas doesn't matter that much, IMO. My brother brand matters. Have had to compare both and I can confidently tell you there is a difference. Chilling effect is much more powerful than the others. Haven't you seen sone refrigerants that knocks off your Ac system there by causing expensive repair? |
Car Talk › Re: Closed by mayor2013: 6:54am On Sep 24, 2016 |
I can confirm that the harp gas is a very good refrigerant. The best. I also use it at my workshop and chills heavily. Have drawed comparison with other refrigerants cos I do experiment  . One thing car owners do not know is that those cheap gas are the ones causing havoc to your air conditioning system. Can't start explaining all that now. I use the bigger harp gas and I buy it 40k. There are other bigger refrigerant of 20k. You get what you pay for |

Car Talk › Re: Identifying Bad Shock Absorbers by mayor2013: 10:41pm On Sep 21, 2016 |
hardbody: Gurus in the house please help. My pajero was making some terrible noises whenever I drove through those bridge joints on the third mainland bridge. My mechanic diagnosed it as bad shocks and upper arms. He never found time to purchase new ones and to avoid a major breakdown, i got another mechanic to buy the supposed shocks and arms to change the supposedly spoilt ones. Sadly the noise still comes alive and i feel like nothing was really changed. Meanwhile the changed shocks are in my possession but the challenge is i do not know how to confirm that those shocks were really bad. When I depress them, they go down and stay down for a while and gradually comes back up. How do I confirm that the shocks were really bad especially as I usually still had a smooth in and out of bumps. The noises only come out strong on the bridge joints as if nothing is getting shocked at all. Might not be your shocks absorber. Do an overall suspension check. Bring it to multi autolab for proper diagnosis .08165520837 or 08156087872 |

Car Talk › Re: Failing/clogged Catalytic Converters by mayor2013: 2:05am On Sep 19, 2016 |
One of the quickest way is through a misfire. A misfire on one or more cylinders of the car is very hazardous to the catalytic converter. Another practice comes from our road side panel beater their heating pattern. If you ask a panel beater to check if your CC is well intact rather than take the cat pot out he prefers to create a small hole on the side and use a tiny metal to confirm. This practice also causes a cat to go bad in time . |

Then again i doubt if i could find a place here, having gone through every post of every prestigious bimmer and the fantastic machine owned, i shudder to mention my old school 535i E34 that is wasting away because of dearth of specialists. Like the biblical woman with the issue of blood, i have suffered many things in the hands of different physician(mechanic) but still keeping hope alive that i will find help someday. I live around Ikotun in Lagos state and i seriously need a mechanic that could look at the car for me. presently it cannot move. PLEASE SAVE MY BM. Thanking you all in advance for every assistance as i look forward to quick intervention. '#BIMMER ALL THE WAY' What year is your bmw?

If I may take a guess on this. One or 2 wheel speed sensors aren't picking the right signal from the wheel to tell the computer box the speed at which the car is moving. A guess I said. First thing you need to fo is carry out a proper diagnosis. Which would involve running a comprehensive scan and also carry out a test on failed component if any.

byna: Our roads are bad and even worse during this period. You can hardly drive without seeing a pool of water to pass. That was what I meant by inevitable . Ofcousre you don't expect me to pull over and trek when I've got a ride Let me digress a bit. I was currently @ the bmw 100th year anniversary. Got there at about 12pm. It rained heavily that day. A die hard fan of bmw and also an automobile engineer which we called to know if he was coming couldn't because of the rain. Guess what? He was asking what the conditions of the road were down to VI from me. I could just imagine where he was driving at. He drives a nice bmw 525i 2010. He has been there, tasted what and how it looks like coughing out hard earn cash for a repair he can be quick to avoid. The fear of "eps" on bmw is the beginning of wisdom. Not expensive though just only $5k. |
