lrguru:you problem will easy to find exact were the oil is coming from by lifting the car on all wheels and drive (us we put it on the lift ramp and drive ) you will be able to pin point where the oil is coming from and decisions will made from what has been observed check the ATF pipes to the radiator and from the radiator |

D4V1DD4:thats a misception from nigerian have you ever asked your why those manufacturer never bothered to write such information in the manual if the it is true ? they would be sued by car owners for not giving such infor to car owners what they do is they tell us the type of oil to use based NOW temperature a car in canada with single cell radaitor will work fine if taken to saudi arabia without putting a double cell radaiator and without taking off the thermostat and the engine temperature being on the middle pointing part it doesnt mean the car is boiling |

Kunleoduwole:they cant be fixed but they can be replaced all you need is to buy the replacement and refit thats all you dont need any sensors changed if the crash sensor was not damaged then the airbag light has to be reset but scaner that resets airbags the cars system does a self test to check if the airbag system is fine thats the reason when airbag sign comes on and then switches off a good scanner will be able to tell if the crash sensor is damaged or not |

ogawisdom:did i claim to be car guru nope i didnt thats what you thought i dont claim titles so you think the environment in nigeria and uk are different so the engine will work different becoz it is in nigeria poor you whether engine in in nigeria, us cananda, siberia the engine still works the same as for manufacture recommending 5000km oil change please show me any user manual that say so whats special about nigerian weather when the same car can survive real hot desert countries like the middle east |
| Car Talk › Re: Best Method To kw Oil And Oil Filter change is due by ZIMDRILL(m): 10:00pm On Dec 22, 2014 |
ogawisdom:am not a leaner at all it seems you are when they say 10000km it doesnt mean that the oil will remain on the same level till the next service NOPE here and there you top up based mileage you do roughly per month eg every two trip to london from glasgow 412miles aka 663kms i check my oil level if the oil is low i top up. it doesnt mean that the oil that was out at last service will remain on the same level with more mileage you do the more you check oil level if your suggestion is based on the type of oil aka a specific cheap brand then why go for cheap brand that drains your pocket every 6 months go for the recommended one that will take you to next recommended mileage or time though in between you top based on how offen you use the car by the way am not in nigeria am based in UK my standards are UK based so are the parts we buy and even the cheapest STANDARD oil in UK will take you to the next service interval i know that the environment in nigeria has fake things, when i give advise, mine is based on what the manufacture recommens and standart qaulity parts and oil within UK but it doesnt mean people in nigeria cut do the same thing most who cut corners end up coming back here sayng road mechanic damage my car |

Coldplay007:it seems like yourself you have never read one car manual the book has sub topics and also an index for which reference eg on the index page if you are looking for fuses, you look for F then under F you will find FUSES I DONT HOW YOU WILL READ THE WHOLE MANUAL FOR A LITTLE ISSUE unless if he damn as those who think D is for day driving and N is for night driving on an automatic |

adanny01:i didnt draw you back but you draw yourself back you opened a thread trying to find some information and advice you only explained the behaviour of the car and now after 1 or 2 of my input you start to release information about water getting in etc and some of the things you did such as finding more information etc if you had mentioned all the information in the 1st post i wouldnt have wasted my time time trying to explain things that you would have done already |

adanny01:leave him he is supposed to know the meaning of all codes not by head but other means eg googling if he had google he would know that the 1st two code are emissions codes they got nothing to do with jerking of the car or transmission P0705 code is trouble causer of your problem and transmission problem |
| Car Talk › Re: Unable To Fix Security Alarm For Maza 323f GLX 1996 by ZIMDRILL(m): 3:00pm On Dec 21, 2014 |
alextayo:what you need is a alarm system that will be hooked to the central locking system such that when the central locking is locked, the alarm system arms itself aka turns on for any intrusion the system must have a shock sensor or wave sensor, the shock or wave sensor detects any sudden movement of the car/or any moment of anything inside and the alarms goes off the senstivity of sensor can be adjusted based on the area you live ie imagine you live close to a busy road and there are always heavy truck passing by their movement might set off the alarm something like the picture below

like many people you want to be spoon feed once you obtain the code all is need is google the meaning of the code you will find information on the code and it will give you possible causes of the faulty instead of googling the meaning of the code you come here and post the code instead of using the internet u are using the post the code, use it to find the meaning of the code therefore you dont have to waiting for people to respond to your thread nowdays information is within your fingertips aslong you have access to the internet check picture http://engine-codes.com/p0705_honda.html secnd picture show information from the 1st link its easy as cutting butter with a hot knife when you have a code and you want to know the meaning of the code or what is causing the problem you are having after pulling out a code

| Car Talk › Re: Toyota Camry 2000 Model Radiator Issue by ZIMDRILL(m): 11:43pm On Dec 13, 2014 |
starlingbawa:there is nothing wrong with your radiator the water is never meant to be always full even without a leak, water level is lost during driving regulary but this is just topping up once a month and mostly less than a litre the general concept is this, the more you travel the more you check your oil and water levels with water even when the system is not leaking you would top up a 1litre or less in a month or even 2 months for now just top up the water and see how much goes in and after 2 weeks top again, you will mostly likey to see that not much will go into the radiator (am assuming that the coolant system is not leaking ) |
