emadamysy: Yeah, I know there no jobs out there that's why most of us are doing this to keep body and soul together. But the question is would you choose ehailing driving hustle over a banking managerial position if the opportunity presents itself? Show me a beautiful woman and I'll show you a thousand man tired of fun.cking her. If you understand that adage you won't castigate those of us complaining about the poor state of living of an average eahiling driver. Let me shock you, do you know that most danfo drivers weather on a daily delivery or full ownership are far better than an average Uber driver? Their earning from 5am to 7-8pm a day is the Uber driver's earning of 2/3days of 5am to 12midnight. If no be say danfo driving hustle raze a lot of office workers for don wee on their booses heads ![]() 8 Likes |

Crvrider: U still having the issue? Why do u prefer to change water pump rather than radiator. If water pump is bad u will not even drive for upto 1km before engine starts to overheat. If water is drying up in ur radiator then u don't need a soothsayer to tell u either ur radiator is bad and leaking or the pipes are bad or water is leaking from engine. So if u change radiator and fix d pipping and problem persists then ur engine is g***. If overheating is connected to putting on AC then it's a fan problem, but if and only if water isn't reducing from d radiator. By the way, I tot u said it's only when u accelerate or climbing a hill that the engine overheats? IMO.... that Driverpreneurs engine is g***. He has changed top cylinder gasket, changed to double cell radiator, added extra fan, and added coolant still yet. 1 Like |

He was even driving A Benz before joining e-hailing. But now, baba can't even afford one, even if na Nigerian used of Felicity001's type of Benz.

Pearl1910: Thanks boss for your concern. The accelerating issue has stopped remarkably so, but currently, the problem at hand now is that the radiator reserve container dries out after driving several km and this drop in water level does not happen in the radiator. Now, this is another aspect that confuses me. Even when the reservoir is full, when the ac is on the temperature starts to rise and it doesn't go down until I put the ac off. In summary: Reservoir dries up after driving several km, provided I fill up, car temp remains below half mark on the temp cluster. Temperature rises above the half mark the moment I turn on the ac and drive for several km even if reservoir is full No sign of visible leak as radiator remains full even with all the above stated issues. |

Crvrider: For the 3yrs I've been using my car, I can't remember ever adding anything to my reservoir. Both water and coolant. It has always been dry. And I don't experience any overheating. The only time my car overheated last yr, just the Fan engine was changed (cos the fan stopped working) and car got back to life. 1 Like |

Crvrider:Do you notice any drag on the engine when you turn on the AC? Have you changed or worked on your compressor before? |
Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by Pearl1910: 6:44pm On Apr 20, 2022 |
Crvrider: Combination of issues. Take it one at a time, 1. find out where the water is leaking from. U can leave the engine on in one spot, if it's not dropping from radiator or hose then it's evaporating from d engine side. If that's d case then there is no remedy, (Am assuming original top cylinder gasket was used when u changed it) Engine is worn out. 2. Overheating when AC is put on even when there is water in radiator Either fan isn't blowing at optimal speed, radiator cannot carry d load or engine is worn out. Change both fans (motor) to a Tokunbo one and check d fan fuse, make sure it's working properly. If problem persists, Change radiator to a new double cell one. If that doesn't solve the problem then (assuming top cylinder gasket was original) Engine is worn out. Personally, I don't have strength for overheating problem, as soon as engine starts that nonsense and I am sure fan and radiator are good I just change top cylinder to original one, (no compromise on that) and check thermostat, If that doesn't work..I replace d engine.

deedee44: If by drag you mean engine sound? Yes. There's this heaviness about the engine as soon as the ac is turned on. I haven't worked on the compressor per say, though I remember changing compressor pulley and condenser but that was a long time ago |

Crvrider:Your compressor may be overworking the engine, it has happened to my yaris before. Car would be driving smoothly without AC but once you turn on the AC it would be as if something pulled the car back and engine would then be working grudgingly as if they were forcing it to work. If this is the case, your compressor may be the culprit. |

Pearl1910: I really can't accertain the quality of the gasket. As per leaving engine running in one spot that I have done. I have even had to remove reservoir container to examine it for leakage. Prior to changing gasket, I would notice the water in the reservoir boiling...in fact that was the main reason I changed gasket. 2. Overheating when AC is put on even when there is water in radiator Let me get the agbede guys to have the radiator washed on Monday and see if any noticeable difference. Will have no other option than to change to double cell if it doesn't salvage the problem. Personally, I don't have strength for overheating problem, as soon as engine starts that nonsense and I am sure fan and radiator are good I just change top cylinder to original one, (no compromise on that) and check thermostat, If that doesn't work..I replace d engine.

eyinola:The answer you're looking for....... (copied from the story) Now this is what happens when you pour synthetic oil into an engine with a great amount of sludge. Full synthetic engine oils have cleaning additives, they work like detergents, and are able to break down accumulated sludge in the engine very quickly. The ability of full synthetic oils to keep an engine clean, in a healthy engine is harmless, the particles get trapped in the oil filter and after an oil (oil and filter change) drain the process is repeated again. sadly in an abused engine it is not the same. You have rapid breakdown of sludge, it overwhelms the oil filter, clogs up the strainer at the pickup screen of the oil pump, on and no time the engine is running on low oil pressure (which explains why the oil light started flickering in traffic) ultimately from low oil pressure the engine gets starved of lubrication, becomes noisy, rattles and finally freezes up. 1 Like |

eyinola: It has been said here, use synthetic oil from d beginning of your toks ownership. If u have used XHP for more than 2years just continue using it, it's too late to revert to factory spec. Mixing synthetic and XHP is fatal. U can step down from synthetic to XHP after a long use of synthetic but u can't step up from XHP to synthetic after along use. 2 Likes |

donfortune48: Na voice note for fit this your comment. Guy who tell you say "baba Don suffer" I enjoy every single day of my life bro, every challenge is a stepping stone to greater heights that is how I have always lived my life. No regrets I just keep moving and guess what the civic has been awesome. I have feed back on my progress in fixing the car and hopefully this is the last stop. Mean while despite the overheating issues (which has finally been solved) I was still able to make ends met working strategically with the car and able to raise money for conplet engine overhual.
