Car Talk / Re: Help! My Car Right Side Always Hot And Brake Freeze by Ricmayak1: 11:16am On Oct 21, 2015
If the car has ABS, it could be that the solenoid of that wheel is not actuating properly, the brake fluid pipe has been beaten at a particular spot, you have oil contamination on the brake pad, your caliper is not retracting properly, you have the wrong brake pad(or too thick)/incompatible composition or your brake disc might be bad. I guess those mechanics must have bled the brake system. There is a pin(bolt) on the caliper that needs to move freely else, should be lubricated with the right lubricant.

Car Talk / Re: My Corolla Hatchback Vvt-i T3 Dries Engine Oil by Ricmayak1: 6:03am On Oct 14, 2015
You drive aggressively right? If so, change to a slightly higher viscosity oil. This issue has been a factory issue that has to do with high engine oil consumption on some toyotas. It was even a recall if I remember well.

Car Talk / Re: My Car Exaust Smokes White Only On Cold Start Up. What Is Wrong? by Ricmayak1: 5:17pm On Oct 03, 2015
your car might be running slightly richer than it use to. Though, it is normal for a car to run rich on cold start to quickly bring the engine to operating temperature.

I am pretty sure there are more Igalas than Nupes in Nigeria.

Bros, you can lie o. Nupes are Majority in Niger, Many in Kwara, Kogi (infact original inhabitants of Lokoja), some are from Kaduna and lastly FCT.

Igalas are just found within very few kilometers. Itobe (after Ajaokuta) ...Odolu(near Nsukka)... Agbaduma (after Ankpa)....Ogugu.... Bagana (After Abejukolo).... Dekina. Igala land don finish. Tell me where again? let me even pity by adding ibaji area. And you said that you are pretty sure. Area of coverage of nupes in Kwara alone is almost as big as the whole Igala land.

Take note that the population too shouldn't be compared.

How many tribes does Igalas have sef? Under the original Nupe, we have Basanges, Kakandas, Dibos and so on. When you add all, the figure can no longer be 2 percent.

Research well.

Hypocrites. Nigerian workers are subjected to labor malpractice, especially in the private sector, but they pretend that they are unaware. God will judge each of you.

A rope is probably tied on that stick, the glass beneath is stopping it from cutting/swinging. The rope is tiny, transparent and appears invisible.
Also, don't be surprised if a powerful transparent glue was used to hold the container to the wood that is on the floor, and the wood on the floor having a foundation in the soil.

We see the churches that are getting worship right and we turn our backs at them because we are not seeing what we want to see and/or hearing what we want to hear. The churches we should go are empty while others are full. It is our own fault.

Wanna drive down a long steep rocky hill?

Simple, throttle hard and ensure your bottom plate hits every rock outcrop you can see and on those rock outcrop, ensure you brake hard so the bottom plate knocks against the rock.
Thats the way to come down a steep rocky hill safely.

But that hilux must always make 'KPOM' sound from the back when doing that descent.

Car Talk / How Do You Drive Down From A Steep Rocky Hill? by Ricmayak1: 6:05am On Aug 20, 2015
Hello nairalanders,

How can one drive down from a long, steep and rocky hill.
Apply brakes for too long, it might overheat
Engine braking can't be applied because one will be moving too slowly due to the rocks/stones. This can turn off the engine
Emergency brake application is not wise since it is not an emergency and will wear it out.
I am just wondering what the condition of the brake disk (temperature) will be in scenario, for average cars. Let's take Toyota Hulu as example.
Your thoughts.....
Car Talk / Re: My Car Temperature Rises With Increasing Speed And Cools While Idling.. Help! by Ricmayak1: 5:02pm On Jul 18, 2015
Check your spark plugs and use recommended cold/hot rating or a step colder if the need arise.

It kind of shakes on the front passenger side leg when in motion and makkes a certain sound. Have changed everything like caliper. Stabilizer rod, Stabilizer linkage rubber, brake disc( interchanged with d other side) all the same. I just don't like d sound. What cud b d problem?

Do a COMPUTERISED wheel balancing, inflate to recommend tire pressure, align wheeks. The shaking may disappear even if you still have suspension knocks.

Car Talk / Re: 4-cylinder Engine Vs 6-cylinder Engine by Ricmayak1: 7:54am On Jun 06, 2015
nurey:


You better stop looking at weight and start looking at what's under the hood and the effort that was put in manufacturing the car.

The day I drove a V8 powered full size SUV, I knew that power pass power weighing close to 2500kg, it could still achieve 0-60 at 8secs with close to 300hp enough to send some I4 engines scampering for safety.

"Engineer", So you are ruling weight out. I earlier agreed that V6, v8....... are more powerful you know.
The powerful v8 full size SUV you drove would have been quicker if it was lighter.
There are so many other technical factors we should not mention so that the thread won't be derailed.
Regards.
Car Talk / Re: 4-cylinder Engine Vs 6-cylinder Engine by Ricmayak1: 6:49am On Jun 06, 2015
I totally agree with all posts that a v6 engine is more powerful, smooth and responsive. However;

-Don't think you will outshine a light weight I4 with a heavy weight v6, especially the light ones that still have very good balance. The extra torque/power is already working to move the extra weight. That is why these I4 corollas and camry cars do wonders on the road.

-Please, don't try to rudely overtake an I4 full hybrid just because you think it's an I4 (especially on hills). It might disgrace you. Those cars have pretty good acceleration even upto the very top end. The reason being that electric motors have better torque performance than ICEs.

Regards...
