oshytayman: I just bought my pencil light Camry not quite long ago, but I discovered the full light indicator on the dashboard(BLUE) is always on, even after parking. It has run down the car battery. What do u think is wrong? I don't want these local 'rewires' to tamper with my ride. Thanks.
please, reply. Tnx

Hello Everyone,
Happy new month to us all, I wish to share the present problem I am facing with my FX35 infinity, I have traveled for over 2 months and I have my car parked, I tried driving about 10 miles upon my arrival and behold i discovered the high temperature, because that happened on the high way, I turned off the Air condition and the temperature went down I was about to get to my destination when the SUV stopped, I tried to open the bonnet and behold i saw a white substance all over my engine which signifies the gear oil has mixed with the radiator, now my question is, does this mix up affects the gear oil and requires a complete change and flush of the gear oil section as I know the radiator needs a complete change in such situation. Thanks my brothers and sisters for your contribution as you give a suggestion on this post of mine

Gurus in the house please i need clarification. On a vehicle, the manufacturers pressure for the tires are 32psi/ 220kpa. But a volcaniser said it's equivalent to 40. Pls which units do they use, an is it equivalent Thanks, anticipating your response.

Stick to your manufacturers pressure specification. Better still, buy a good portable gauge so that when the 'forknaisa' pump 40 you'll get home and drop the pressure to 30psi.

Read your Owner's manual. That's where the knowledge lies.
Its a wrong practice to remove your thermostat and alter your radiator fan in any manner other than the way the manufacturers made it. Continuous running of fan cools the engine. This in cool temperature triggers sensors to tell the ECU that your engine isn't warm enough to the optimal temperature. The ECU then tells the fuel unit to pump in more fuel to the engine and burn more rapidly. This creates a misjudgment between various systems in your Engine and car, makes your car engine over work itself, thus consuming more fuel in a bid to make the engine attain the optimal running temperature. This overtime causes engine wear and damages the engine before you know it.

Leaking coolant hoses, check for coolant in engine oil and vice versa, this could indicate a faulty head gasket check that fan is running in the right direction, (in case you recently did some wiring work) if you have run the engine dry (without coolant) of recent it is possible you have already damaged the head gasket, or the head (top cylinder) consider replacing the engine if that has happened.

Thank you sir,my mechanic just call me that the rewire says that the radiator cover is leaking this leads to the radiator water to go back to the reservoir,he said the would empty the radiator and it will start overheating and also The thermostat is bad that I need to replace it.


Don't know if this is the cause sir??
