okpobe:Your car might be running lean which can be due to vacuum leak,low fuel etc pressure or you have ignition related issue and you need to check the cause of this by patronising a competent diagnostician to data stream root of the issue. call autologic @08061166316 to book appointment for the fix |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by honmusa(m): 8:13am On Jun 03, 2017 |
Afolabisemiu:There is a hidden leak on your cooling system and the reason that this issue didn't manifest before without thermostat then due to the fact the cooling system pressure was lower than normal . However since the thermostat has been replaced now the pressure has increased than before and the coolant is forced to escape tru the leaking point .Cooling system is designed to have the high pressure to prevent the coolant from boiling at low temperature but there must be no leak in the system Normally I don't advice customer to replace thermostat untill the cooling system has been diagnosed leak- free or else the car will overheat on restoring thermostat . You need to take your workshop to a workshop that has a cooling system Diagnostics tool to smoke out the leak for you and proffer the need fix.If you are in Lagos ,u can book appointment with autologic@08061166316 for the test. |

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by tzars(m): 11:15pm On Jun 07, 2017 |
Good evening sir, I have a Toyota Camry 2010 V6 and every now and then I'll have the check engine light come on. A diagnostic test will show some cylinders are misfiring and the fault will be cleared. My mechanic says it's because the exhaust system is blocked, that there is need for the catalyst to be cut open and cleaned. My question is can a dirty catalyst cause this problem and should I allow him tamper with it? Thanks |

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by MaziOmenuko: 7:46pm On Jun 08, 2017 |
Pls ooo, I have been using water on my radiator all these while until last weekend, I did routine servicing and decided to give my car a threat, drained the water and replaced with abro coolant. Now I am noticing high temp on temp reading of over 100 degrees. The funny part is earlier when I was using water, once the temp is above 90, my fan will kick start and the temp will reduce to somewhere around 85 and then it will start rising again and the cycle is repeated. Now, the temp keeps rising above 100. Oga Gazzuzz, kingrein nurey, mayor, should I revert to water becuase it is getting scarier? 1 Like |

MaziOmenuko:U need to mention your car model . |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by MaziOmenuko: 8:24pm On Jun 08, 2017 |
honmusa: Peugeot 206 pls . Now temp gets to extreme without triggering the 'check engine' light in the dashboard, unlike b4 when I used water, such temperatures will certainly trigger the light for me to stop. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by kingreign(m): 4:31am On Jun 09, 2017 |
MaziOmenuko:Bleed it. Peugeots have bleed points along their cooling system to expel air trapped in the system. |

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by chukel(m): 6:52am On Jun 09, 2017 |
Afolabisemiu:your problem is around the thermoswitch and fan. As for the leak, check your radiator cap and expansion can cap. When you are on speed, the air u are driving against rapidly cools the engine and the fan isn't really needed to work. When you slow down, less air. That's when the fan is needed which I feel isn't working optimally. When u put on ur ac, the fans are constantly on. So there is better cooling and that's why the temperature gauge is normal. The pressure from higher temperatures may force fluid out through the cap of radiator or expansion can. Hope the mechanic bled the system well. |
