I can switch from Mobil 1 to super 2000 5w-30 without any issues right ?

Shey I talk am before
Mechanics are Satan's offspring.. always giving with the left hand and taking with the right

Yh, stick with Mobil 1. Low quality oil will deteriorate over time while sitting. Take the car out more, run it hard so moisture and carbon deposits can be burnt out.

nymphomaniac:
thanks boss. I will make sure he drains every last drop after fixing along with a new filter. The gauge was indeed low. I had never noticed a leakage prior. I am suspecting oil burn as the oil has been below gauge twice during last two service sessions but there’s no smoke at all. It’s an engine regularly serviced engine at 3k miles or less if up to 3 months and a 1MZ

Also, he says the engine has to be brought down to fix the issue. Is this indeed the case?

There's this injector cleaner that fuel attendants usually disturb me about. I want to ask if it's okay to pour that into my tank.

treatise:
Can regular use of the air conditioner use be a way of "running it hard"? I regularly drive to office and within town with room to fire the car hard.

treatise:
I always have a challenge with my car whenever I top up my fuel;
I've been experiencing this challenge for over a year now. After a mechanic worked on my car, if I buy say 10 liters and above of PMS the car wouldn't start on its own until I press gas pedal simultaneously while starting the car. Even if it starts the sound wouldn't be smooth until after a few meters. Subsequently, the car would start and rev smoothly. Please assist with advice where possible. Many thanks

GAZZUZZ:
Car has a name?

treatise:
Yes Boss, it's a Mitsubishi Lancer 2004 model.

Do you have it sir? Getting the parts of the car in where I live is herculean.

GAZZUZZ:
Technically is same part in lots of vehicles, first identify it, remove and you will be shocked how easily you will find it

Good day Gazzuzz and other senior guys here.
I use an acura tsx 2008 model
I need help. Seems my car is guzzling fuel.
I scanned it sometime in June and it showed my my 02 sensor was bad with code P0135. I bought another 02 sensor and changed it. Cleared the error code and since then whenever I scan with my Bluetooth scanner, that error code does not show
But on the vehicle instrument cluster, I have been monitoring the average fuel usage for my trips
I see high figures of between 27 to 30 L/100km.That got me alarmed.
I went to a mech and asked him to scan my car and I got the code P1157. Infact the guy said this ur car go dey drink fuel oo
I am confused guys.
Yesterday I proceeded to change my plugs and also clean my engine air filter. Still the trip computer is showing me 30 L/100km as instant average fuel usage.
Make una help me.

9icetoo:
1. How long in miles and minutes is your average trip?
2. Where do you regularly drive from and to?
3.do you leave the engine to idle a lot (e.g warming in the morning, while gisting with a friend etc)
4. Do you drive it like you stole it (racing) or like a grandpa?
