Oga Gazzuzz, I encountered 5 hours traffic jam last week, infact at a point I spent over an hour without moving .. My AC was on as the weather wasn't friendly, at a point I discovered my car temperature was going high. I had to off the engine and AC, it normalized .. so later I realized one of my fan stopped working and the coolant reduced... Now my fan has been restored, I discovered there's a little bubbling in the coolant once I start the Engine.. Pls, could this be burnt gasket or is there any possible cause ? Is it safe 5o use the car ? If it's top gasket, is 2AZ Engine safe when replaced with a new gasket? Thanks in advance 1 Like 2 Shares |

Mutemenot: If you have consistent bubbles in radiator when cover is open, it is very likely you have a blown gasket. Do you have a history of head gasket change? |

There is this loud noise that comes from my car every morning I start the car..... it sound like a whistle noise and the engine too later after a min or two it will reduced and died off... called a mechanic he tried to get where the noise was coming from and said it’s probably from the compressor |

Good afternoon Oga GAZZUZZ, i have a Camry 2004. When the car is at a stop the AC cools on low, but once taken to level 2 or 3 the ac refuses to cool until it the car is in motion. Also the engine runs smoothly, but once ac is on the engine feels heavier and drags & the idle is unstable in stop position. Pls what could be responsible? |

Please, I need expert opinion on my kia optima gdi model 2013, I noticed recently whenever I'm in a motion, the car would do as if it want to stop but it won't, and I don't know what might be the cause |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by molybdenum0012: 5:02am On May 06, 2021 |
Please I need your expert opinion. I got a Toyota 2005 from thr US recently and discover that the 4 Tyres are too small. 195/60R15, so each time I drive pass a bumpy road it scratched the ground. Now I want to make a choice between getting a new Tyres, but unsure about the right size to go for that will not present a problem to the car. 195/65R15 is the standard Tyre size written on the manual, but someone suggests I go for 205/70R15 to achieve more clearance ground. While some other says I should have my car lifted up and then put the standard size, that it will be okay. What's your suggestion sir? Should I go for 195/65R15, the standard size or 205/70R15 the higher one. Thanks |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 11:06am On May 06, 2021 |
molybdenum0012: If you are an uber driver 195/70/15 or 205/70/15. If you are not 195/65/15. Don't ask me why, I will not respond |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by molybdenum0012: 11:55am On May 06, 2021 |
GAZZUZZ: Thanks for this. My mechanic was telling me to get 195/65R15. Since I am using it for Uber, I will go for 195/70 as you have advised. Thanks. |

Good morning Gazzuzz, please what's the recommended engine oil to used for Kia optima Gdi 2013 ? I used to make use of total oil until my mechanic suggest the oil isn't so good, so I recently changed it to visco oil by forte oil |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Kingspraiz: 6:39am On May 07, 2021 |
Good Morning, My Kia Rio 06 goes off after some minutes of driving, it starts and goes off again after some moments unless I leave it to really cool down. This started some weeks after I change the gear box. I got this code after scanning, P0708 & P1709. Kindly assist. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 6:48am On May 07, 2021 |
Kingspraiz: Faulty range switch, has nothing to do with the codes. |
