DECOtech: Assuming you change your engine oil every 3months (depending on the quality of oil you use oh), then you shld be changing your atf every 9months (like once in a year).
where did nigerian get this idea of changing oil after 3 months ?
rainmaker12: My car consumes too much fuel, with no check lights on the dash. It's just too obvious. I drove a v6 car and noticed the difference. Is there any trick behind this? Car in question is a l4 2000 accord.
you are comparing two cars right
why cant you give us both car full details engine size, year, transmission etc
Platnum1: I have been married for 5 months now.I lost my virginity to my husband but he doesn't blv cos I didn't bleed. I was use to pleasuring myself with my fingers before now,maybe that's why I didnt bleed,I don't knw. D fact that i kept myself for my husband all these yrs and he doesnt even blv me hurts so bad. How do I get over this and not let it hurt me so much?
there is confusion among men on what is losing virginity
a virgin is someone who has never slept with a man/woman
then tearing that the hymen and going in for the 1st time might tear the flesh to bleed but not always
bleeding might because by inexperience the woman is not wet and relaxed therefore her body her body and mind are not relaxed so she is dry and we force it and always in a rush
yes playing with yourself might tear the hymen/muscle and therefore even on the 1st day she wont bleed but she might feel the pain especially if your 3rd leg is wider than the toys she was using
if a car gives u sign that it needs an oil change..........then damage is already being done to the engine, if u r using cheap a,ss oil 20w 50 sold from 1500 naira to 3500naira......then i recommend u change every 2500miles or 3 months wch ever comes first..........for peace of mind...u might even change at 2 months....oil is cheap...car engine isnt!!!!
if u r using synthetic oil 0w 30, 0w 40 mobil 1 sold from 8k to 12k.......change every 6k miles or 6months wch ever comes first
where did you get those figures 2500miles or 3 and 6 months ?
ogawisdom: I noticed for sometime nw n particularly this evening as I was abt to drive out dt my steering ws stiff and this happened for abt 1min b4 it feels normal onces more.
Mean while my sound system drags abit n cuts off as I rolled down d window as if d battery has insufficient power to carry out all functions at once.
After driving for two minutes everything got back to normal n neva happens again until d first start up for d next day.
Wats goin on
NB I do a lot of short distance city driving 10 - 30min with stop n go traffic n I wonder if its sufficient for d alternator to charge d battery fully
you have gave us the details of your car, from what you discribe i assume that your power steering is powered by an electric motor
its sound that your battery holding charge (the charge from the alternator ) the cells in the battery are dying they hold charge
1toRtoiSe1: Yes, Nigeria has passed an anti-gay bill subjecting anyone caught in a gay act to a sentence of 14yrs in prison. But how long do you think such a law will last? Not for long, with the recent trend of events. Why? Because we as a nation are getting exposed more and more to a medium that promotes LGBT(lesbians-gays-bisexuals-transgender). That medium is the products of the american movie industry, hollywood.
Ever bought an american movie in the past to discovered the subtle way in which homosexualism is promoted? Well, it's now in your face. Currently, the world is getting carried away from the trend of movies that don't span beyond 2hrs to movies that go beyond hundreds of hours, cos most viewers often wished some movies don't end, a reason why series came into the picture, getting people glued to their TVs consuming the contents of such movies.
Has anyone noticed the alarming rate at which the american movie industry promotes gay? No american movie goes by without a gay content this days. From Oz to spartacus, tyrant to tudors, game of thrones to housewives etc. Even the 2hrs movies of today hardly go without a gay content, even if it's just the mention of the word GAY e.g the INTERVIEW and 50 SHADES OF GREY.
I was cruising round town with my brother and a friend yesterday when some radio OAPs were discussing about a new TV series called EMPIRE. I wasn't interested in their discussion till my bro and his friend started talking about how interesting the series is, that they can't wait to get the 2nd season. I decided to get the season 1 on my way back. Barely 10minutes into the first episode, I was greeted by a scene showing 2 grown guys kissing and acting all emotional. The characters were jamal and his girlfriend michael.
What annoys me most is the way they( the directors of these movies) try to persuade people into thinking there's nothing wrong with the homosexualism, giving it a good promotion...like making the gay character appear as someone with a good heart but clearly misunderstood. They throw in a gay relationship that is deeply rooted in a 100% love, honesty, faithfulness and loyalty, making straight people jealous cos a 100% of everything is not obtainable in a straight relationship. The gay character in the series EMPIRE, jamal, was giving a very attractive role so as to lure unsuspecting viewers into the world of gayism. In the movie, he's from a rich family with a music empire, the most talented among them with a voice to kill any female, the gentle one, loves a kid he's not certain of it's paternity(how many guys do that?), the only one who cares about their ex-convict mum and several other qualities that can make a die-hard homophobic person go emotional and accept him for who he is. Everybody loves a guy with the above qualities. To pave way for the acceptance of homosexualism, the several hollywood directors are now moulding characters with such qualities and making them gay. Such strategy leaves viewers toning down their hate or dislike for homosexuals.
And that's where I fear for Nigeria. In the next few years, going by the rate at which we are exposed to the hollywood contents, majority of those that jubilated when the anti-gay bill was passed, will storm the streets demanding for its reversal.
i think you missed the big picture
the series are highlighting what is happening in our present day living
i think there are/were trying to show, how hard it is to come out for those who want to come out and how hard it is for parents who homophobic
the same thing which was in BEING MARY JEN (mary jen goes to help a friend in fooling the parents that she is a her girlfriend unfortunately the guy's mum knows that their son is gay and father is pissed not because the son is gay but becoz he lyed, making parents believe he is straight) --- high profile black people are coming out
In Scandal US not the south african {we have the same highlighting of recent things happening}, (a black boy is shot dead by the police they claim he pulled out a knife to the officer, the father dont believe the police story and he takes a gun, goes and seat next to his son's body and demand to speak the police officer who shot his son) ---- blacks are being killed by trigger happy cops in america
If a parent is homophobic then dont let them watch such content its not the series's faulty but you the parent you have the control to what your kids watch while in home and let tv lead your kid's life but you the parent
For grown up people, why bother its what s/he has decided to do with his body it doesnt affect you in any way so why bother your self
i think we can only start to worry about gay people when they start to groom young kids and when the human kind is about to be extinct as we would require every man and every woman to repopulate earth as for now we have to many abandoned kids from the so called straight couples and the lucky one are being adopted by the gay people. so until all straight people are looking after there own kids with no single abondoned kids roaming about with no either parent looking after those kids then we should shut up and look at what us straight people are doing to help those kids
Gays people have been there ever since the creation of human kind even if we put laws they will still go underground and continue to exist
folamog: Hi folks, please I need to know what to check to know when a car is due for service, I have been told 3 months, but the car in question is not used everyday, just weekends and bot all weekends.
when the whites come to africa,the west had developed already they had sort of a system working in their respective countries
so we should focus on the period before the whiteman came to africa, the white man came to africa after releasing the potential of market of goods in their own countries and they sought to get cheap raw materials from beyond europe, their systems created market for goods and services and all that developed country
if we focus on the period the whiteman came to africa we fail to answer the question because africa was their before the whiteman and it has kingdom etc but how far had we developed as those scattered kingdoms
and also lets put egypt our of the equation simply because that was one of the developed empire among other empires scattered allover africa but what is there to show the development they did before the whiteman made us slave
many people answer the question by only looking at the period the whiteman came and left but still to me it doesnt answer the question as africa has kingdoms already before the aririval of whites but how far had we developed ourself ?
and we talk of civilazation started in africa etc but whats there to show of it and what development was that if we compare european empires and african one we would say we were developing at the same rate ?
i agree to say between 1800 - 1900 we lost development as africans because we were all under the whiteman's rule but what of the our own period before the whitemen and the whiteman and his development before exploring africa? I THINK THAT WERE WE SHOULD FOCUS ON

megautche: Pls I need info on the cost of fixing stiff steering of Camry 07 or what causes the problem. When the a car is not in motion ice stationary the steering is hard to steer but is smooth when in motion. Pls waiting for advice
just to make sure, during that stationary will be the engine running/idling or switched off?
cars with hydraulic power steering, they need the engine to be running or idling and auxiliary belt turns the power steering pump
some new cars now come with an electric power steering and not yet sure if the motor works as well on accesories position on the key but like any car with power steering they start to work the moment the engines start to run
uboma: @ op, check the level of ATF in your car. I'm sure it has gone very low or completely drained in the case of a leak. If the rubber pipe connected to the AFT cup is torn/broken, you'll have to replace it and top more ATF.
Try this first and let us if there's any improvement.
point of correction ATF is AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OIL for an automatic gearbox
generally as africans we always want to substitue something recommended by manufcaturer to something cheaper and sort of similar
in this case instead of buying the actual power steering fluid PSF , we use the ATF
so this might mislead someone they will top the actual AFT in the gearbox and cause damage, when you meant to say power steering fluid
Edunwa302: Who's talking of over heat here, did you understand my post at all ?
it seems you dont few things about cars
he asked if a car idles while AC is on for long period wont it cause any problem
then i mentioned overheating because aslong the cooling system is not tempered with they wont be any problem the reason being if the car idles with or without AC on and engine temperature reaches a certian degree the thermostat open to let cool coolant in and the fan kicks in to cool down the coolant that came from the engine, this is normal process of car especially when it at stand still
when you are driving the fan job is turnover by air passing through radiator as air is forced through is due to the speed of the car
as far as i know most cities done allow idling engines for certain period of time because of so called going green, less carbon fumes for no reason
just remember that those diesel electric generators engines and they can run for hours and car with everything working normal can idle for hours as well but the question is who would idle his/her car for hours except when you are trapped canadian winter storm
Edunwa302: Ur owner's manual shld tell you more, beside its not Ideal to do such as that may course rise of engine temp, your car needs more than inbuilt cooling system for perfect cooling as air that pass through the car's while on motion helps a lot in engine cooling
Your are wrong
thats the reason why the fan should kick in when the coolant has reached certain degrees so it will never overheat as long the thermostat and thermometer are working fine
indigene: The instruction on the product can stipulates that,the oil filter will be change, does it really apply?
yes the oil filter has to be changed because it is dirty already, remember its the one that was trapping dirty on the old oil you flushed, change it, it has dirty already put a new filter
freetowns: Hi guys I need help here. Just yesterday on my way back from work, my car stopped. I popped the hood and found out the battery head was loose.

It's a Toyota Avensis 2007
it might sound stupid but did you switch the AC back on ?
some cars when you switch off the engine with AC on and ON again the C doesnt come ON automatically you have to switch on again
nickxtra: Please, help me to resolve the issue of ABD showing on my Nissan Primera's dashboard, after the mech changed the broken shaft. His explanation that the shaft he bought is not ABS does not go down well with me. 2. Also, there is an Airbag symbol flashing on the dashboard. It is really irritating seeing it flshing. How do rectify this. 3. Pls, what is the oil type and Transmission oil type I can use for the Nissan Primera P11 1999/2000 car?
Simple
mostly likely is that he damaged the ABS ring or the ABS sensor when putting back the new shaft but to be sure the car needs to be scanned to pin point the exact wheel
the same for air bag, scan and reset the air bag
mind you not all scanners can scan air bag and abs

eliascomm55: I want buyers of those sealed phones and laptops to beware of re packed gadgets. This is what my brother saw in a brand new sealed Apple Mackbook Pro Carton. His suppler actually sent 4pieces of this, he opened them to see what is in the carton then he found out nylon filled with beach sand was packed and sealed in the laptop box.
#whitepeoplescam#
