Good day all and happy New year. My 98 crv after driving for about 30mins, and I off the engine, the reservoir container boils, an I'll be hearing hissing sound. When everything cools down, water in the radiator will reduce, and the reservoir will be empty.
I did a small test this morning. I left the radiotor open and started the engine, after about 5-10 minutes I saw bubbles like foam. Pls what is the meaning?

Classic cylinder head gasket leakage symptoms after a bad case of previous overheating. Check if water is mixing up with your engine oil

Also a cracked water hose or radiator fin can cause such symptoms. Check your transmission oil too for signs of water dilution

Please post the picture of the red light that is blinking because to the best of my knowledge, when the doors are locked the red blinking light in my car is the antitheft light

Structuralman:


Is this your dashboard?

baba4thegehs:


Looks more like it.

The light is around the circle area on the dashboard

No doubt, that's the security light. It will keep flashing so long as your door is locked. There is also security light on the radio for higher trims of that model. For my accord security light flashes both on the instrument cluster and the radio

baba4thegehs:


Thank you...by instrument cluster you mean dashboard? Because this particular one is on the dashboard.

Honda isn't just synthetic blend but also fully synthetic. Fully synthetic is able to withstand high engine temperature better and it doesn't break down easily compared to synthetic blend. In as much as synthetic blend isn't bad fully synthetic is better

The manufacture has configure and design the engine to work at a certain level. Certain things in the engine are design to protect the engine etc .....

But when mechanics or car owners start to deviate from manufacture design like , changing from Automatic compressor to manual, from single cell to double cell , from coolant to using water, from 1 fan to rewire to use 2 fans. From removing thermostat etc . "All because our Nigerian weather is not like abroad" all these design are done to protect the engine from further damage, but u start to do ur own thing on the car , you end up damaging the car .. It might not happen right away , but with time the car will break down.

And this is why I don't buy Nigerian used cars. There is a reason why the previous owner decides to sell of the car

Contrary to as perceived, - 2014 vehicle models do not have sensors to determine when your oil is bad. Of course the oil pressure sensor can sense low oil pressure, not even necessarily a reflection of the level of your oil.


The oil life algorithm is based on mileage, for most vehicles it is set at 5,000 miles/Km. That is why it is advised you use the recommended oil for your oil changes. If you use a low grade oil, and rely on the oil life to determine when to change your oil,
you can as well do a early sendforth for your engine.

If your oil service lights comes on, and you reset it without changing the oil, your car assumes you've done an oil change and starts the mileage covered count.

When you are dutiful enough to record your mileage at oil change, and do a reset yourself, and confirm it is done, then check the next mileage the oil change light comes on, then you will understand it.

Vehicles are not yet as smart to know degraded oils. Service lights are programmed on vehicles with mileages covered

What is your point? If the mileage gets to 3000 miles and oil life is at 10 percent,can I reset it back or I should service it again?
