timifakay:
All is in order

Ok thanks sir

id4sho:
VERY NORMAL

ok

So maybe coolant isnot flowing at required speed as it should. Idont know

9icetoo:
He is probably used to cars without thermostat. Or maybe a Kazeem is trying to convince him to remove his thermostat. OP, which one of the above is true?

Non is true. I m just very observant and an ethusiast.

timifakay:
How do you think its supposed to operate. I see no problem here

These are my concerns

At idle in the morning, when the temp needle reaches middle without revving or anything. The upper hose get hot but lower hose will be cold as ice. So i think lower hose should be warm atleast

But once i rev the engine then the lower hose starts to get warm too.

And

Sometimes after driving and i s/off the engine, i touch upper hose and i will feel the water boiling, is this normal

Ah, ok boss

diportivo:
why are u disturbing hoses up and down fogozsakes??

once ur thermostat opens,water will flow

ac on will automatically do that.....

this one u r touching hoses up and down so,e be like u need water to make eba

stay in the car,keep ur eyes on the temp gauge sir

9icetoo:
As long as your temp doesn't get to the red zone, leave that car the way it is. It is doing what it was designed to do.
The fans in my cars stay off as long as yours. Even longer on the Kia. So long my mechanic had to connect the fan directly to my battery once to make sure it was still working.

Ok what about the revving part. Coolant dont flow in the radiator untill i rev the engine. I mean lower hose stays cool, upper hose will be hot. upper part of radiator stays cool. even when the engine is at its working temp.

xavuv:
good day to you.

This is happenning to my camry 2005. During dle or slow movement(neighborhood), It takes long time for the fan to start and when they do they run for like 15 secs and stop and then start again at a longer time.

When i s/off the engine, i can feel the water boiling when i touch the upper hose with my hand. The lower hose stays hot but not as hot as the upper and not boiling.

This usually happen when i make trips with my neighbourhood. You know,slow movement due to potholes bumps,traffic etc

But all these dont happen when i use the ac either in neighbourhood or express.

Yet In all of these circumstances temp gauge needle remains at the middle.

Here is Another symptom as to what is happening coupled with the one i wrote up � there

In the morning, at idle, when the temp needle reaches middle, i noticed the lower hose is cold while the upper hose is hot,in fact coolant will flow into the reservoir. But the radiator (upper part) is cold when touched.

But radiator gets hot and lower hose gets warm once i rev the engine or drive out.

Radiator is not blocked(relatively new), air in the system is not likely, im guessing thermostat or water pump, or even serpentine belt or maybe some sensors.

Car drives fine,no overheating, ac chills great too
Please help me diagnose.

honmusa:
This is what is being referred to as controlled system ,there is inbuilt controller(ecu ) that will monitor some input signal(engine temperature) and base on that will make the decision on that and will determine the duration the fan will work .

Oga good day to you.

Yes brethren. Rubber bushings were changed for wheels at the back. The ones there before, the ones that came from factory,were thin and torn somehow. Back Wheel alignment was done to round up the work.
The replaced ones is shown in the pics
I hope this will solve the problem.

Those tyres r not tokunbo

EngRichie:
Just a guess....

Tokumbo tires that were folded during importation

..... Then over inflation compounded it.

Kazeem said tyre would not bulge out if it were alignment problem, that it would be uneven wear.

SpaceAngel:
two different tyres damaged with same symptoms on same position in car Try checking the alignment since you've swapped rims.

They were new tires bought them 2 years ago. Year of manufacture is 2017. SUNFULL TYRES.

I use 45 psi. I make sure it stays that way.
Vulcaniser uses the new guage,the one that with clock like face.

Same tires on four wheels. But that particular spot is giving me problem. Third tyre is bulgibg our smal small.

Evwr sonce that thing started i been buyibg tokunbo tyres

9icetoo:
Op, help me with the following answers.
1. Is this a tokunbo tyre?
2. What is the date of manufacture of this tyre?
3. What pressures does your vulcanised inflate your tires to?
4. Does he use the dial face and stick gauge? I have found some of the dial face gauges to be wrong. My TPMS confirmed it as there's was reading 10 PSI lower than actual. If I wasn't paying attention or had the TPMS to check, I would have been driving around with 44 osi instead of 34 PSI.

Ok. Thanks

sola12:
Do the back alignment and wheel balancing........ Bt try doing manual..... Cos those compterised guys dont really knw, hw to use d machine

I have switched rims. I think that rules it out.

obiekunie2:
your rim may be bad.

I have changed two tyres in the same position (back of driver's side) in 5 months. The one presently there has been showing same symptoms. They bulge out on the face, giving me a bouncy ride. Not pleasant at all.

Pls brethren what could be wrong, i just want to have some fore knowledge about what is wrong with that side (back of driver's side) before i let my kazeem remove a nut on my wheel.

Note: my absorber and linkages are ok ( i just changed that small linkage rod for the four wheels)

Vehicle: camry 2005

Thank you Sirs/Mas.

Indebt** what!

Very sad nonsense u wrote.
Just sad.

dagreat4:
My brother you know what to do.what to do is the right thing which is to marry her.HIV get cure.What happen to love is as strong(er)than death?if her influence got u to where u are today as u say,u are eternally indebted to her.

Thanks baba.
Im not losing oil by the sides, just stains there.
Its been fixed. 4k fixed it. Im still watching out for leak anyway.

Nyceguy92:
Oil seeping from the valve cover is a common issue with cars over time.

Usually it isn't much problem until oil loss becomes significant and makes your engine look dirty.

Either the bolts holding down the cover is loose or the gasket is worn/flattened out in some places.

The fix is simple: replace the gasket. It is about 30-40 minutes job.

If you are not sure who to believe, I suggest you go the to the market and buy the gasket yourself and pay for labour, maybe 1K.

Also check that you are not losing oil from the engine side, around the pulley area. There is a rubber seal there that can go bad in time.

Thank you. Esheun.
I will get on it.

homeboy205:
Yes that is not your case... you need a valve cover gasket. They don’t need to bring out the whole engine. They will remove the top cover and replace the gasket... it’s sold for #2000 for new I think and 1k for tokunbo

Please help out oo

Initially, when they were young, Most of them didnt even know they would be among world richest

Ol. I hope this wount be my case. In my case oil is only sipping out from the top.

1StopRudeness:
Carry the whole engine out to fix the leakage..my mum’s Car had this issue recently, messed up the engine bay cos the oil was just feeding to the belt and spinning more oils everywhere...

the first Kazeem did it for 3500, the l akage only ra sucked but ddnt stop.....the second one collected 4K said the packing the first mechanic put wasn’t done well... the leakage reduce again but ddnt stop completely ...
so I met another probably a kareem this time who said the leakage spot on the engine is too close to the gear...that to properly fix it he would have to take out the engine...and that’s what he did ..and it finally stopped.. I might be wrong with ur case though

Take a look at the pics. Please what can i do to stop oil sipping out of the engine. Its messing up the engine compartment, as i like my engine compartment to be neat and shiny.

Now i wish my chiefs here can enlighten me on what the problem is and solution(s) to it. I dont want anyhow kazeem to open up my baby and add more problems.

Oil is also dropping at a faster rate too. Initially though my baby burns 0.5Lt of oil for 1500miles.

I have been to kazeems quoting different prices. Some said they will repair the packing for 2thousand naira. some said i will buy another valve gasket for 7thousand naira.

Vehicle is Camry 2005, I4.

Thank you sirs/mas.

Funny enuf, most ppl i know with ACs are from ibadan.

Khalidase83:
Yeah. These variants are common particularly in the South Western Nigerian(mostly Ibadan). AC, SC common but CC is rare though.

itu404:
One of the best moves of this house of representative and it will not been forgotten easily. I appeal to all churches, and marriage registry centres to ask for this test result. Let us use the knowledge God has bestow on us to avert pain and unnecessary suffering on the children we bring to this world

What if the intending couples lie about their genotype

You said that this is where science comes in. What science are you talkinh about? Foetus testing or what?
What is your poiny actually?
I asked because you ended up saying nothing

yeyeosoronga:
They should start with the registry then. Some people only do court weddings.
Are they now asking the religious houses not to join those who's genotype are nor compatible? Do these religious houses have the right not to join people because of their medical challenges?
What if the couple know they're not compatible and both decide to still get married? Has the church/mosque/court registry got a right to deny them of that right? That is discrimination IMO if they're denied the right to marry.
It is a useless law if they cannot task the court registry and those who marry traditionally to the same thing they are tasking the churches and the mosques IMO.
What about theose cohabiting?
I know it's a stupid decision for those not compatible to marry, but that is where science comes in.

rationalmind:
Those thieves will stop you at almost all checkpoints expecting you to drop

They will take their time to crosscheck your VIN with the one on your papers. Some will go as far as checking your engine number.

God help you if one digit is incorrect

You re right. Na so them frustrate me life on my way to osogbo from ibdan. Those police at the outskirt of ibaban. My Vin on paper is not complete.

On point bro.
The quality of camera used
And he added some fat.

Rednaxelot:
Two things changed here.

The status of MI, and
The camera used has been upgraded.

Either ways, there were upgrades

On the contrary, no typhoid is sturbon. Those antibiotics he used works fine just that he's been re-infecting himself, with probably food and drinks that he's been taking. He should change pattern.

Tell him to start raking only bottled water,Eva water etc. He should also eat food prepared under Good hygiene.

Again: chicken meat carries the salmonella thyphi. Do away with chicken meat for now....and if you must make sure it is well fried.

One would think graduates from these schools are the best ppl

EkwensuAmosu1:

God knows that no matter how rich i become
none of my children will enter all these nonsense useless secondary school called private universities

that's why many of them are just academically ok but not otherwise
you'll see a full grown man behaving like a kid and at 35-40 years his parents making a crucial decisions for him including deciding for him in his martial home.

you'll hardly see a fully matured as in matured man from these secondary schools call private unis

Universities are not all about academics it's about shaping you psychologically, physically and emotionally for life ahead
that's how it is everywhere in the world
nonsense
