You dey risk your 650k for toks engine.

Possible reasons?

1. Sludge on the oil screen/oil pump filter
2. Faulty oil pump

Have you scanned the car?

Don't bother driving the car until you change the oil pump or clean the oil pump screen
Tor!
2AZ don reach 650k?

Hey guys, my DC 07 power steering pump makes a grinding sound after I parked it for 3 months and started it. Do it mean fluid is low or it is about to die?
Is the noise a constant one and more pronounced when steering is turned?
If yes, pump is on it's way out.

Bro I have been scammed and I have been robbed at gun point. I will pick the scam over ever getting robbed at gun point ever again.
Getting scammed made me smarter because I will never fall for it again. Getting kidnapped or robbed at gun point messes with your head.
If you haven't experienced both then don't compare them pls. And 80% of the time (for those doing international) when their accounts are hacked and money taken from it, the government/bank usually replaces it fully or part of it. I have a friend in the US who lost $30k from his account to hackers, he told me the bank replaced it within 2weeks, and I know for a fact he intentionally gave his account to the hacker so the can share the proceeds.

My point is scamming is bad but getting shot in the head or being paranoid that if you say tge wrong thing you will be shot in the head are on two different levels. Pls never compare them together.

Check the fp and see an article of someone getting killed after they collect 5m ransom from him.
He lost his life and his family lost 5m and you say they're the same thing.
Well they say lesson is the best experience, just pray you never fall into the hands of robbers or kidnappers.
You're right and I totally get you. But my point still remains that both are bad and comparing one from the other gives those involved in it some sort of justification to do it.

Lol very huge difference. Have you ever been at gun point?
As long as the yahoo Boys are not using people for rituals then it's 500x better. Not saying it's good but compared armed robbery where your life is in danger
People's lives are also placed in danger when they rub them off their hard earned money.
Haven't you heard of people committing suicide after they were swindled?
Have you thought of the ripple effects it has on the victims dependants?

Pray you don’t get robbed at home in the middle of the night where your loved ones sleep and some rando is pointing a local gun at your face.

You do know local guns tend to misfire a lot right? And boom just like that by accident your brains are all over the floor.

But hey… There can be no witnesses, so what starts as an accident becomes intentional murders of the people living with you.

Only then will you finally know the difference 🤦‍♀️
Thief na thief. Does not matter how the crime was committed.

Major complaints about Accord is the alleged ball joint challenges, i really dont know much about civic but i know a lot of banks uses it. Accord is quite luxurious in terms of infotainment and interior design compared to civic to the best of my knowledge. Thats why i said any of the brand. Kindly suggest, then I'll comapre and make my choice. Thank you.
From what you've stated, I can narrow your preferred choice to Sedans.
You can go for Civic, City, Jazz and 8th generation Accord (if balljoint concern will be an issue). They are within your budget range.

Good day bosses here,I realized recently that my car battery doesn’t charger whenever I put on my AIR CONDITIONER because whenever my air conditioner is on my car would only work for few 15 to 20mins before my car battery low I will need to use another battery to start my car again,please my oga in the house what do you think might be wrong? Do you think my car battery is losing life span and I will need to get a new car battery? my car is Camry 2013.thank you
Possibly a bad or weak alternator.
Take readings with a multimeter on DC volts from the battery terminals with your AC on full blast, lights on high beam, radio on, wiper on, and all electrical loads in your car powered on. If you get a 12.7v or below reading, your alternator is likely on it's way out or dead already. Ask someone to help keep a steady rev at 2,000 RPM with all accessories powered up and see if the reading improves to above 13V. If it doesn't, do not throw the alternator out yet. Take same reading from the alternator post and compare with what you got at the battery terminals. If it's same, then you have a charging issue. If it's higher from the alternator post, then you have issues with your transmission line from alternator to battery.

Good evening,

Please where can I get a quality OBD scanner in Lagos, I need your recommendation please.
What's your budget?
What would you be using the scanner for?
DIY fix, or you want to open a shop.
Also what kind of functions do you intend getting out of the scanner.

I think also Benz is not just ordinary car that you just jump in and start driving,you need to take your time to go through the manuals so you can be prepared for anything and you will know what the issue is even without waiting for a technician. Also try to learn on "the job" as your engineer is fixing pay attention so that you won't need to call him next time Incase it happens
Until you burn something 😏

I drive an e320 too 05 precisely, the first time it happened to me I shocked as per never experienced it. so I parked the car and off engine to get something, then soon I enter to start , turned the key nothing I had to call Rewire and checked everything all good so we decided to change battery and it started easily, and whenever such happens again I just remove the two battery clips and fix again then it come on again.
You've not fixed the issue na. You're just managing it.
cbrass:
Hello,what could be wrong. My E320 w211 won't start, I drove somewhere today and everything was fine on my for me to enter my car to leave and the car starts rolling as if there is no petrol inside. I poured like 8liters inside but the car won't start, initially it was doing like it was going to start but the *slow* was so weak and it later went of since then it just rolls and nothing happens,so I just parked the car there so as not to kill the battery. Please what could be wrong..can it be spark plug issue?
Remote diagnosis would be difficult. It could be anything. Get a competent technician to scan the car and diagnose the cause.

Good evening, please help my car has been consuming so much fuel and oil. Camry 07 . Please appreciate your help.thanks
The oil consumption and fuel consumption are 2 different issues that are related in a way.
You'll need a technician to physically diagnose the car and pull trouble codes for possible fix.

I drive corolla 2010, my speedometer is not reliable. It doesn't read beyond 60km/h.
Also check sign and maintenance req always on display. Please I need expert advice. Thanks
When you say it doesn't move pass 60km/h how do you mean? Do you feel the car actually driving fast and beyond the speed and the speedo stuck at 60km/h regardless of how fast you drive or the car itself does not move pass 60km/h.
For your warning lights on dash, you'll need to scan car and post codes for remote diagnosis.

Mine is a 6 cylinder and the mechanic told me it was the valve which he assured me he replaced but I’m still seeing oil stains
Valves or valve cover?
If you still see oil leaks then it simply means it has not been fixed.
