They are still very much on the road. The ones that are parked somewhere have been hit by their owners decision to use low quality oil and as such the oil has destroyed their engines, overheating and all that stuff. Use the recommended oil and you will be glad you did.

[Okay..thanks for the advice. One more thing, can I use 5w30 -as adviced by "autotrader', is that okay too?

5w20 or 0w20. Any other one is not suitable. Look for Castrol edge 0w20 in black gallon. Because your engine clatters in the morning, you need an oil that will stop the noise. The clattering is caused by your use of substandard oil instead of the recommended oil. Castrol within a short while will eliminate that noise.

Please I need advice, it's a 2007 LE Camry, I used Mobil xhp. It's a low mileage car, less than 70k. If I don't allow it to warm up in the morning I hear funny sounds , after a couple of minutes, the sound disappears . Toyota advices different oil specs, what's your advice regarding ATF and engine oil? Thanks

.Your camry will require 0w20 or 5 w20. You have been using the wrong oil hence the engine clatters in the morning like a knocking sound. I will suggest you flush the old engine and use a high end oil like Castrol edge extended performance, 5 w 20 or 0w20. This is what happens when you are not mindful of the oil that you are supposed to use. Mobil xhp is for cars below 2004 and not advisable for any car after 2004.

Nigeriaarc@hotmail.com . Yes, it works with your car perfectly

Yes, syngard global Atf

Next week is here and I don't have any Sport on ground but you can manage this one

If you dont give a Bleep, why bother. The Ooni and sultan are posts that the highest bidder gets. The current ooni is not even the first child of his father but he was made Ooni and his father was even bypassed. I think prostitution is better than using a human being for rituals to be rich. We know the zones where this act is very rampant and if you are given a choice of selling your body for money or killing your fellow human being for money, I dont know your choice but I know that your choice will be just. Thanks for acknowledging that you have not met an edo househelp unlike other tribes who are much endowed in these acts. Our greatness is not ancient, it is current and we know that we are not masqurades, we are as we claim we are. At least the Ekiti Oba has acknowledged that the Oba of Benin is their Supreme Oba.

Thanks. I am very much on ground but I talk about cars and engine oils but I could not help but chip in to reassure those antagonizing you who really wanted to know what makes a Bini man tick that even though we are small but we are still great up to Ghana,Togo and Benin Republic and we are very proud of who we are, whether our actions make us prostitutes, cultists and wizards, the bottom line is our greatness lies in our heritage passed down from generation to generation and no one can take that from you.

because d gov is superior to d Oba. In fact he pays his salary

The Governor can never be superior to the OBA, in this life and in the next life. Obaseki's family is a palace chief and so the child of one who kneels to greet the Oba every morning can never be greater than the Oba his father respects. The Obas dont go out unless it is expedient. I once stood by Oba Erediauwa at close range in Benin at the trade fair in 1989. He was inspecting the stands of the businesses that came to display their wares and to encourage them all. Then he came to Ogbemudia farms stand and the ex Governor came to attend to him. I was waiting to buy roasted chicken and when the Oba came into the stand, the whole chickens vamoosed and we were refunded our money. Edo Nation, you are wonderful but the Kingdom of Benin is far higher than the Sultanate of Sokoto in all ramifications. Any kingdom where the son does not succeed his father is not a kingdom because the father cannot pass any legacy to his successor to continue from there. The late Oba Oyekan of Lagos has nothing in common with Oba Akiolu, ditto with the Sijuade and the Ogunnusi, the current Ooni of Ife. Dasuki was deposed and another line took over as Sultan. When Oba Ovonranmen was deposed, there was no one on the throne until he died in 1914 and his son took over after his father died. To the one that is interested in knowing what we are known for, our tradition and customs is worth more than any enterprise on earth. We are all independent on our abilities to create wealth for our families. You can hardly find any Edo person that is an househelp to any one on earth unlike those in perpetual servitude. If Nigeria should break up today, there will be alignment of forces and everyone shall return back to their roots. There was peace in Bendel State until the state was carved into two and then we now started hearing of Ijaw/Urhobo wars. They could not say a word when there were in Bendel State, but when they came on their own, they felt the need to assert themselves as the rulers of Delta where the Oba is no longer watching them. And yes, the Fulani cannot attack EDO because not only will they be destroyed but the business interests of the fellow fulanis in Edo will be wiped out and they know that very well and they have warned their people never to stray into Edo and make trouble. Armed robbers who smokes marijuana will never stray into an army barracks to rob, the igbo will clear sharp sharp.

The law is our school master that leads us to Christ........Read Galatians very well

I will be expecting you then

I normally recommend 2 bottles for every full tank and afterwards a bottle every fill up. The reason for that is to allow the Ecu to increase the performance of the engine when it detects that the Range is using premium unleaded fuel and it compensates with improved performance that you will notice when the sluggishness disappears and your oxygen sensors are revived. If you forget to use the booster today, you can use it tommorrow, abi?

We have Syngard global transmission fluid which is very ideal for your car. Call 08098534267. Please be mindful of the engine oil that you will put in that new engine so that you dont run in circles.

For best performance of your car engine, one of the things you need to know is what type of oil your car needs. Car owner often seems overwhelmed because there are different types of Engine oil out there especially because all brands promises to do different things.
To choose the proper type of oil for your vehicle, refer to your manufacturer’s manual because that is where you can get the right viscosity oil e.g. 0W30, 0W20, 5W20, 5W30, 10W30, etc. In cases where you can’t find the manual, it’s also common to see the recommended oil printed on the oil cap under the hood.
Factors to consider when choosing the right Engine Oil

How hot or cold the climate is: the lower the number before the “W’, the better the oil works in cold weather.
Additives: these are effective as anti-oxidant, anti-wear and anti-corrosion inhibitors
Viscosity ratings: this is the oil’s resistance to flow. The lower the number, the thinner the oil and this makes it flow easier. In 5W-30 oil, for example, the 5W is an index that refers to how the oil flows at low temperatures (in winter); 30 refer to how it flows at high temperatures.
Automaker’s standard: it is important to use oil that meets this standard. This commonly includes American Petroleum Institute (API) Certification, International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC), a joint effort of U.S. and Japanese automobile manufacturers.
Synthetic oil? : Newer generation of cars come straight from the factory with synthetic oil and some auto manufacturers recommend it. It is good to put the following into consideration:
• The type of oil you have been using
• The type recommended by the owner’s manufacturer
• The type of climate you live in
• How old your vehicle is
• How old your vehicle engine is

DuraMAX Full Synthetic Motor Oil is manufactured in the USA, it is API rated and is available in the following SAE 5W-20, SAE 5W-30 and SAE 0W-20

It is rated API SN, Ilsac 5, ACEA A1/B1 and much more of this information is needed. Is it a better option to Castrol or Mobil 1 USA? Let people know so that they can make informed choices. The rate of engine failures currently is alarming and motorists are not smiling anymore. The Toyota brand has the highest rate of failed engines because the owners do not care much about the engine oils and so will put any oil in their engines.

You are welcome.

ok

Welcome. BG44 from what I could glean from Amazon is a fuel injector cleaner. The one we sell is the Johnsen 4688 Octane Booster. It boosts the fuel we have in Nigeria. As for the lifetime transmission fluid rule, even Range rover does not believe the claim and so it has to be changed once in a year. I tried it on mine and I have been doing so ever since and on the transmissions of my clients.

Romans 13 v 1-7 gave us an insight to what we have overlooked. The minister of God is not the pastors alone, but the policeman, soldier, judge. A judge will pass judgement and it will come to pass. A policeman will kill robbers and they will be commended for that act. A soldier can kill in the war and nothing will be charged against him. These are the real ministers of God, permitted by God to do all these acts. But when they err because of the authority given to them, they are punished like those accidental discharges that is common among policemen, or those the army termed friendly fire. A civilian that kills another civilian will be dealt with by the police and the judge. When it comes to the issue of fulani herdsnen and boko boys, yes, a christian can kill to defend his people. The Israelites always go out to fight those that encamp against them. Elijah killed the prophets of baal. Samson, even when he lost his hair and power, killed a lot of his captors. But a christain is not permitted to kill anyone for any reason except to save his life from those that want to attack him

Autotrader, sorry for the ommission. I really want to know about the specification of that TOYOTA motor oil. Is it an SN and Ilsac 5 compliant?

Autotrader, sorry for the omission. I really want to know about the specification of that TOYOTA motor oil. Is it an SN and Ilsac 5 compliant?

The 2006 requires 5w30 and since Mobil 1 esp is easily available, use it but I will advise that you use Mobil 1 5w30 USA. Get in touch with Gazzuzz. A 5 litre gallon will do wonders to your engine.

I just followed your advice and I have initiated the process of renewing my old driver's license that expired 2 years ago. I have made payment online and I intend to go on Monday with the slip. All these tips will not be necessary if you stand your ground. I have direct access with the Corp Marshall and it will be a trial for these guys if they mess up. When I got the second real license because the first one which I went for the capture in their office in Abuja was not in their database, they stylishly added 650 Naira to the 6350 Naira as bank charges for paying cash. I did the test with the VIO and it was an eye opener but I passed after arguing with them that these road signs are nowhere to be found on Nigerian roads and that if they were even there, it has been defaced by posters from all sorts of adverts. The VIO boss for the License in Abuja had to intervene and admitted that the road signs are not on the road and even the driving school does not have the current road signs that are asked the candidates at the test center. The eye test is included in the 6350 Naira and so it is free. We need to start the process of making sure no one is paid for what he does not deserve. They are public servants and they are paid for their job. If we pay for little things, we will surely bribe for bigger issues. But there are some scenarios where you need to pay and leave there immediately, ie the passport office and even the magistrate courts where you pay for your freedom even before you appear before a magistrate...

Your car requires 5w30 sj or SL. Mobil 1 esp is 5w30 SN. It will work.

Just observe the recommendations. It will save your money

Which oil were you using? If you did all the work that you described and the engine is still not perfect, then change the engine. The timing was not properly set and after repairs, you are still encountering the same issue, let it go and get a new engine. Toyota engines does not have sludge even when you use the conventional oils. After 3 months, change the oil but when you are using synthetic, every six months, you drain and I guarantee that you will never see sludge even if the mileage is 200000 miles.

There are many 5w30 in the market. But they are not convenient for your car else there will not be sludge in a Toyota Engine. When you check your oil chamber cover, which oil and specification did Toyota ask you to use? There are 5w30 SJ, 5w30 SL and for your brand of Toyota, maybe 0w20 or 5w30 but with the API number. If you use 5w30 and you have sludge, the oil is not good for your car.
This is what OBDcodes have to say about p0016.

P0016 - Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation (Bank 1 Sensor A) Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation (Bank 1 Sensor A) What does that mean? This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is a generic powertrain code, which means that is applies to OBD-II equipped vehicles, including but not limited to Ford, Dodge, Toyota, VW, Honda, Chevrolet, Hyundai, Audi, Acura, etc. The crankshaft position sensor (CKP) and Camshaft position sensor (CMP) work in harmony to control the spark/fuel delivery and timing. They both consist of a reluctor, or tone, ring which passes over a magnetic sensor, which generates a voltage, indicating position. The crankshaft sensor is part of the primary ignition system and functions as the "trigger". It detects the position of the crankshaft relays that information on to the PCM or the ignition module (depending on the vehicle) to control spark timing. The Camshaft position sensor detects the position of the camshafts and relays the information to the PCM. The PCM uses the CMP signal to identify the beginning of the injector sequence. What ties these two shafts and their sensors together is the timing belt or chain. The cam and crank should be precisely timed together. If the PCM detects that the Crank and Cam signals are out of time by a specific number of degrees, this P0016 code will set. Symptoms Symptoms of a P0016 will or may include: Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination The engine may run but with reduced performance The engine may crank but not start The engine may exhibit a rattle near the harmonic balancer indicating the tone ring is damaged The engine may start and run, but poorly Causes Causes may include: Timing chain stretched, or timing belt skipped a tooth due to wear Misalignment of timing belt/chain Tone ring on crankshaft slipped/broken Tone ring on camshaft slipped/broken Bad crank sensor Bad cam sensor Damaged wiring to crank/cam sensor Timing belt/chain tensioner damaged Possible Solutions First, visually inspect the cam and crank sensors and their harnesses for damage. If you notice broken/frayed wires, repair and recheck. If you have access to a scope, check the cam and crank patterns. If a pattern is missing, suspect a bad sensor or a slipping tone ring. Remove the cam gear and the crankshaft harmonic balancer and inspect the tone rings for proper alignment and make sure they're not loose or damaged or that they haven't sheared the key that aligns them. If they are properly installed, replace the sensor. If the signal appears normal, then check the timing chain/belt for proper alignment. If it's misaligned, check for a damaged tensioner that may have allowed the chain/belt to slip a tooth or several teeth. Also check that the belt/chain isn't stretched. Repair and recheck.

This is a case of using substandard engine oil. The op is the one suffering from this problem now. Go and get a used engine and use the right oil as recommended by Toyota

Get octane boosters

tafrica:
Please, does this advice apply to all/most cars
There is an Benz ML 500 which is sparingly used, it's now problematic with one issues or the others

Yes. It Applies to all cars expecially the big engines. They don't want to be warmed up like 504

Are they warming the car in your absence? That should not be. The wear and tear invreases if it is done in this method. All you need to do is to fill up your tank and remove the negative terminal of the battery. Lock the door and when you return to the country, just fit the terminal of the battery and you are good to go
