I just changed my radiator today and I have sworn that I will never buy from dealer again. Na iaai be my next target. What remai ns now is to check if my engine has thermostat and if my groundnut has not been removed. Cos my engine na 3.0 and if I buy fuel of 3k,my tank is 6k full. If I buy fuel of 3k,na just for that day. Me sef do taya. But I have changed it to factory radiator,it remains for the to disconnect the direct fan cos mine na double cell. But on jepo. I no fit afford am. I have done every,even sef I bought better gas mileage liquid. No diff. My former Honda was giving me 14mpg,but this one if I dey city na 5 to 10mpg. Highway 15. Me don taya. I shall never buy accidented car again,esp if na front impact.

I will suggest you scan the car and post the codes here. Maybe your car is running rich.
Don't give up yet.

Check and make sure your catalytic converter is not blocked. Sometimes, this causes the symptoms you are describing.
Also make sure your fans are pulling air into the engine and not blowing air out of the engine bay.

thanks, I will check that out.

I got this scanner from Amazon around late 2021.
It has been working very well and has never failed me since. I keep it permanently in my car. I got it for around 40k naira then (including shipping). I highly recommend it.
I came across the scanner on YouTube (Scotty Kilmer channel)
