 Phones › Re: Phantom 6 Intetnet Connectivity Problem by Ricmayak1: 3:12pm On Dec 26, 2016 |
Poster is right. Am having same issue with phantom 6 plus. I have earlier tried the suggestions given here but to no avail. I have even done permutations of several APN settings. It will just refuse to keep browsing until you reset data again and this goes on over and over again. When I tether service from another phone via wireless, all seem to be fine. As I type, it still happens. Am just waiting for OTA update that could fix this. |

Cruise control is good for not hilly roads and for speeds between 60km/hr to 100km/hr where the economy for many cars lie. |

@poster. What you have explained is possible. Prior to repair, your engine was running rich. There is a possibility that the new A/F sensor attached to the exhaust manifold is faulty or not the correct replacement part, causing your engine to run very lean. If that is the case, the engine might not last. In fact, it's failure can be catastrophic as the engine will be operating at very high internal/combustion temperature. When an engine is running lean, it consumes less than normal quantity of fuel. When it runs rich, it consumes more than normal quantity of fuel. Don't drive it harshly or do frequent long journeys yet. Also ensure that your cooling system is sound at this time and I hope you are not using 20w50 viscosity oil. Regularly check your coolant level too. Regards... 1 Like |

TRYGO:Oga Trygo, oya begin backtrack. Aside usual tight tolerance issues, use of oil pressure to control timing, one important issue with the hybrid is; it is a high compression engine. 20w50 oil will easily degrade in it and will not also transfer the heat properly to cool the engine. Regards. |

| Car Talk › Re: What Is Tge Advantage Of Hybrid Cars Over Non Hybrids by Ricmayak1: 1:11am On Dec 20, 2016*. Modified: 3:21am On May 03, 2022 |
Lower fuel consumption Higher torque and acceleration compared to non-hybrid versions with similar engine capacity Quiet Can be used in accessory mode for a long time as the auxiliary battery is a deep cycle type (e.g playing music while car is off) Iridium Spark plugs, brake pads last for about 100,000 miles Car inverter can be used to power other appliances (not directly and at user's risk) Environmentally friendly Mostly come as high trim models, like XLE In case of engine overheat, car can be managed easily to a safe destination or a mechanic workshop. You will simply drive gently, glide and take advantage of downhills to recharge battery Less maintenance on electric power steering (no fluid), no belt driven Waterbury and AC compressor (not all) The hybrid system is protected and reliable if we'll maintained The Atkinson engine is reliable There are several advantages of hybrid cars compared to non-hybrids.

| Car Talk › Re: 5 Ways Your Car Tyres Will Help You Save On Petrol During This Recession. by Ricmayak1: 5:13am On Oct 05, 2016 |
Note: Newer tires have higher rolling resistance than worn ones hence, the newer one will give lower fuel economy. But when a tire has worn out too much, it looses lots of traction, that affects fuel economy negatively. Again, tires with higher inflation pressure give higher fuel economy because of reduced rolling resistance. There is a point of diminishing return where too much pressure causes loss of traction. |

"Gabriel Yemi Jimo Rtd Perm sec, Comrade Ajayi & Gani Ajibola (youths leader).. are the main brain behind all these ugly situations... No wonder comrade Ajayi on behalf of Share Community are trying to dissociate Share community despite the fact that five (5) Share suspects have been arrested in state CID." The suspects in custody have named some Share politicians that sponsored the recent and past killings of Tsaragi people by Share youths. They also confessed that those Share politicians supplied them those high caliber ammunitions. |

There are times when arms inside coffin which Share people were bringing into town were intercepted by security agents. They have always enjoyed the support of their sons in power. Since the Share people have realized that they cannot contend with Tsaragi people in battle, they have resorted to the guerilla style of attack with very high caliber weapons. Nupes are widely known to be very peaceful people. Once more, fulanis have nothing to do with this killing. I urge the government to get to the root of this crisis once and for all. Best regards. |

One thing the share people are good at is propaganda. During the last communal clash, the nupes were caught unaware, they have never in the history of the clashed premeditated any fight. The provocation is always from the yorubas. When casualty is recorded on both sides, the gather their own dead bodies, run to Ilorin to advertise that the takpas (what they call nupes) have killed them. They are good at running to the media to lie, same they have just done again. I appeal to relevant authorities not to let this matter lie until the sponsors are punished accordingly. |

Fellow nairalanders, Let me bring the truth to light. These people are nupes who were attacked by yoruba people who used very high caliber weapons they acquired because of history of communal clash between Tsaragi and Share. Five out of the six attackers have been arrested and are presently in police custody. They are all yorubas from Share community. They are being sponsored by highly placed politicians from Share. Some of them have previously been indicted by commission of enquiry on previous crisis but today, they are in power. The issue is, Share is a small community and they coveted the Ifelodun local government head quarter from Babanloma (also yorubas). Till date, they are sworn enemies. Just imagine, Ifelodun local government is very big, Share is nowhere close to the center, it's at the extreme end which is boundary with nupe community. Now as a LG HQ, they need land for expansion but always want to take it by force from nupes. To be continued.... |
