mine85:Check your oil in the morning if the oil is short know that the oil rings is bad so you have to go to a mechanic workshop to fix it up.. But if it is not shorten I mean the oil you will know that it is the airflow.. that will require an electrician to check your car... So good luck and ask the mechanic to check if there is any linkage of oil.. |

Goldbw122: We blocked a suspected place of leakage, i am now monitoring this new oil i put in |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by Goldbw122(m): 1:14pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
mine85:Ok, yeah it will definitely affect the engine if you put a oil that the quality is lower than how many quality did you put like we have 20w - 50 and many other so which one did you use |

Check ur engine oil!! Camry cars function best with Mobill & Total oil |

akpunda86: My hydraulic was shorting, the mechanic opened the servo and saw that all the hydraulic was entering the servo. So he opened a small outlet and the hydraulic poured out, he rinsed with water and pour out again. Though, i doubt if everything poured out, it will remain small Sha. Since then, my hydraulic cup is still full unlike before where it dries up with 3 days. Thus, if we emptied the servo, how is it dropping on the exhaust? Well, ita after they worked on that hydraulic container and servo cleaning that I observed this smoking... You may have a strong point. I will go to another mechanic to check the work they did on the servo and hydraulic container engine (they went to service it or so) |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by mine85(m): 1:17pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
pswglobal: Yea, i have seen it... Will check if its bad also |

mine85: Which oil was recommended? I would have thought it to be 5W/30 |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by mine85(m): 1:23pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
onunwa21: I just put in mobile xhp 20w/50... 4 days ago, monitoring if it will short. 1 Like |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by adubam(m): 1:26pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
Chuksaluta: That car is old and abused. Using 5w30 is total waste at this point. The summary of this is his rings are bad |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by mine85(m): 1:26pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
Goldbw122: Been using seahorse 20w-50 but put in mobile xhp 20w-50 4 days ago... |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by mine85(m): 1:27pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
Chuksaluta: I don't know the recommended oil... I have looked at the engine cover, its not written there. I suspect also the engine is tokunbo not follow come. |

Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by Goldbw122(m): 1:35pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
mine85:Mobil Xhp is good, hmmm meet your mechanic to diagnose the problem.. ok |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by mine85(m): 1:37pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
Teejayadex: It doesn't happen when I start engine, rather when ibhave driven fro awhile, it pops out and within a minute, stops and after another long minutes, up to 5, it happens again. Sometimes, up to 15 mins, no smoke |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by mine85(m): 1:44pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
Goldbw122: I am gathering useful information here already... I will use it to guide my mechanic. So far, i have understood somethings here, so i will ask him to check the PCV, the selvo, hydraulic container, coolant. Before they thought of rings and piston. That should be the last not the first. |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by phemmyfour: 1:45pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
mine85:Start saving to get new engine, otherwise sell it. That's what happens if you use low grade oil or not servicing the car as and when due |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by Goldbw122(m): 1:46pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
mine85:Yeah, good luck |

Scan your car and do some google research with your result .. you can get these bluetooth scanner from Jiji. https:///ilupeju/car-parts-and-accessories/vgate-icar2-bluetooth-obd2-scanner-6gx7Q93OFieDqfIR8AdoQrnW.html?page=1&pos=2&cur_pos=2&ads_per_page=2&ads_count=2&lid=iLD-8-fZH5iRKnrL. It goes for 10k and download car scanner on Google play store you can scan your car for free .. then you can Google the result and learn more about the problem before going to the mechanic to fix it with the direction you learnt online .. but from my experience if the smoke is whitish then it is a leaking coolant to your exhaust .. if it is blueish in colour then your injectors are failing and your car is pumping much fuel than required into the cylinder so you need to change all your injector , if it is blackish smoke then your piston rings are bad you need to get a good mechanic to replace that for you .. just get the scanner and scan it first then paste the result first.. I am not a mechanic but I like buying cars with engine problems and low mileage then fix it by using mechanic and my scanner to resale for a good price mine85: |
Re: Car Smoking Occasionally by mine85(m): 1:53pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
pentsystems: You made valid points... The smoke is blueish or sky blue... I will also ask the mechanic to check injectors... For scanner, not sure it will work, na old car, even my dashboard isn't showing the lights. Doesn't read well. |

Once happened to me, very important information, most of the oil we use are not the proper recommended Oil for our car engine, this really affects the Engine,was recently a learned Guy told me to Check what is written on the cover of our Engine, the figure written there is the recommended Oil to use, not knowing that all the while i have been using a cheap oil of #10,500 (Mobil super 1000 20w 50) instead of ( Mobil 1 #30,500 5w 20 ). The difference is clear Nah, not knowing i was Killn My Engine.
