Car Talk › Re: How To Avoid Catastrophic Engine failure by valarinz: 11:46pm On Sep 28, 2021
Kelvin30286063:
How to know if your catalytic converter is bad
Sudden drop in fuel efficiency.
Failure to accelerate when you press on the gas.
Vehicle won't start (of its clogged).
Failed emissions test (O2 sensor).
Check Engine light is on.
Rotten egg smell.

How to your catalytic converter is stolen
You may not be able to tell your catalytic converter was stolen by looking at your car, but you will know as soon as you start the engine. When the catalytic converter has been removed, your vehicle will make a loud roaring sound that will get louder as you push the gas pedal
Almost all your points are debatable, don't want to just say "false" or "not exactly correct", so we keep it civilized - "debatable"

TRYGO:
Hi everybody. We've started up a forum, solely dedicated to HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLES (HEV), seeing that most forums in Nigeria, have not had a sole presence for such vehicles yet.

The forum, would be different from what you've been accustomed to, vis-a-vis that you'd be presented with a DIY process to fix your hybrid electric vehicle, if a professional is not available at your location.

Feel free to sign up, and have your say!

Your paper for clearance will carry the color and the model.
Me, trying to figure out what the hell is "paper for clearance", that's different from the customs papers we all know

No sir, customs docs don't include colour, just the vin and model name
Car Talk › Re: Car Guzzling Fuel? You Might Need Replacing Your Car Catalytic Converter by valarinz: 11:17am On Sep 17, 2021
SublimeAutos1:
You can remove the Mesh Immediately and the car would still run on an empty pot...

But However, You would experience an unbearable rate of fuel consumption...

My advice is that you remove the Mesh as soon as Possible and replace it as soon as possible...

Overall, it all boils down to you just removing it and avoid the problems it might end up causing
The bolded parts of your statement is not correct and you know it, i understand cat sales is your hustle, but don't peddle falsehood

Majority of cars driving in naija currently got no cats, most cases owners don't even know, terrible mpg can't be as a result of missing cat in singular. Assuming every other thing is perfect with your car system, the absence of only catalyst won't lead to "unbearable rate of fuel consumption"

Happy sales though, cheers

Really?
What of cost of transmission and engine cost? Learnt costs btw the two models the difference is much as well as other parts
They share same parts apart from engine and gear.

Currently, the 5cyl engine is more expensive than the 3.2l 6cyl engine, but for components like compressor, alternator and steering pump, the 3.2l 6cyl is more expensive

On a more serious note, i shouldn't be trying hard to convince people to dump older cars and move on, except of course finance is the main reason for not looking forward

Thought 2006 T5 is best for a starter and affordable maitaince ?
Not really, it only has comparatively insignificantly better mpg ratings, every other aspect ita below the 3.2l 6cyl engine that startes from 2007 models to 2014 models

Good afternoon boss. I use a 2005 S80 (2.9)

Which engine oil do you recommend. Went to to one garage and they put hardex now when the engine is running it's smoking from the oil gauge opening.
Volvo recommends Castrol boss.

Look for Castrol 5W30 or Castrol 5W40

You just jump out and type as if you lack home training. What do you mean by I'm lying? If you don't know something, you keep quiet instead of disgracing yourself.
Mine was a 2006 Civic. Here are pictures of two pre-2006 civics with broken ball joints, picked online. I have another one of a matrix with broken ball joint in case Toyota fans make it look like a Honda thing. What if I tell you what I have seen a Volvo xc90 with broken ball joint?
Don't be talking confidently about something you have absolutely no knowledge of.
No, you haven't undecided
