Why you dey plant vawulence where crops are peaceful?
The second person you tagged fit come for you with a machine gun.
But me I dey come for you with a water gun.

Pearl1910:


Better be topping the oil. If your engine is still sounding good, maintain that pressure cos the moment u open it up to re-ring it, and it's not properly done then say good bye to that engine. Corolla engine is almost 1m
The solution is to rering it and change valve seals. But must be done by a highly professional mechanic who will use original quality parts.

I was told that too, but can't take the risk to re ring it.

Will stick to topping it up.

northbird:
I use hardex . Its 30k. n I drain my oil every month.
Some folks will say it's full synthetic. I tell them, that's Bullshit. Once you do 2500-3000km on the car, you should drain the oil. If you are into ehailing full-time, in a month, you will clock in 2500-3000km @ the minimum

The car is bringing in money, so it needs to be taken care of too.

Only new engines can be serviced @ 5000km intervals.

Do they have 1litre, might switch to this and will be buying 1liter to top it up....

Pearl1910:


Your odometer is actually in miles. So if u are targeting 3,000km then I are wasting your money on oil cos it means u will be changing oil at about 2,000miles. 6,000miles is the recommended oil change.
My car automatically indicates "maintenance required" at 5,000 miles. If u are using 5w30 oil, then 5,000 miles is okay for servicing. It's even better that the car gets fresh top ups before next service. meaning u get a little fresher oil than the car that's not chopping oil and will not get fresh top up until next service.

My camry runs on miles as well, and I use 20w-50 for it, when is it ideal to change the oil?

Omoapena:


I would have stick to topping up the oil but then, I can't be buying 1 litre of oil every 2 weeks, that expense is too expensive

You go buy toks oil?

Welz:
sometimes I see trips on indrive and I wonder who are the drivers taking such trips. nothing on God's green earth will take me to sango Otta even during dry season not to talk of rainy season.

To confirm if it's the engine that is shorting the oil check your plugs and the exhaust

uber driver wey dey go chop for isaac john, that one na OG before IG. Except na that mama put wey dey for beginning of oduduwa way sha.

You might be mulling the idea of opening your Engine. . Don't try it.
A corrolla engine hovers around 800k+.

If an extra 8k monthly. on oil that's like 96k yearly. Compared to looking for a new tokunbo engine.

96k versus 800k.

The better choice is obvious to everyone.

How about ringing the engine between 150-200k and close the chapter 🤷

pope191:


Boss say no more, you cant convince me. Dispatch riders are aliens. They have plot of lands beside stanbic bank headquarter with zero worries.

Highest I can do is when I see anybody selling for bricklayers. I park car and join the party. Rice 300, yam 200, mix Ponmo and meat, bread and use 7up to wash it down. I can drive for 2 days uninterrupted.

Shey na one course meal be this or breakfast, lunch and dinner🥺

Omoapena:

Omoapena. You that is complaining of 3-4k oil : .
1l hardex is 7k. Oh. Stick to your former oil

The end of the engine.

northbird:


The end of the engine.

When has ringing of Corolla engine, been the end of the engine? I have ring several of my cars engine and they are still working, some was ring as far back as 2022 some 2023.

This new generation of mechanics don't learn the work properly, their own is to loose what is bad and tight another one.

Omoapena:


I was told that too, but can't take the risk to re ring it.

Will stick to topping it up.

You can only top up for few months, maybe within 6months the engine will drop dead, start saving.

I tire oh
Even abroad engines are rebuilt

There are still many mechanics that know how to rebuild engine

Enter the back of ladipo or onyigbo and see how many of the engines many people buy as toks are ringed you go shock

Omoapena:

Lol... Engine wey don dey short oil na him you wan dey top

From 1litre topping e go enter 2litre then 3litre before you know it tears go full your eye

Omoapena:

If u are using 20w50 then change ur oil at 3,000miles. Because this oil degrades faster and causes sludge unlike synthetic oils.

jpworld:

Not true. Engine has been shorting oil as far back as far back as 2021.
2024.. engine is still silent.

dav1002:


To confirm if it's the engine that is shorting the oil check your plugs and the exhaust

Some oil burn produces invisible smoke or no smoke at all. When u start seeing visibly continuous black, blue grey, or white smoke the problem is a bigger one than just re-ringing.

Oil doesn't hide, if it is leaking u will definitely see it on the fan belt, on d floor or engine body.

dav1002:

Say what you have experienced. My car has been shorting oil for a very long time. N its still the same 2-3,litres monthly.

northbird:


Omoapena. You that is complaining of 3-4k oil : .

wicked u

The challenge is not all drivers understand management of an old engine.
An engine that shortens oil can't be consistently used on long trips anymore.
Medium (10-15km) trips will suffice.

Not planning to fire the car to Edo or kogi when you know the oil shortens.

I guess I will switch to synthetic, make I no go kill that one engine with 20w-50

Calculate 1-3litres extra of synthetic oil every 5000miles
