just wipe it yourself, maam. it'll cost you the price of a couple of old t-shirts.

i seldom have my engine cleaned. i even instruct the oil change guy not to.
what for? it'd be just as dirty after a few km...
hindi naman kami sumasali nang car beauty contest, eh.
heh heh.

Oh no. Your reply came late. I had it Engine wash na. I don't think I ever had it engine washed since I bought it in 2010. Napahiya ako doc kasi they know maselan ako pero dumi ng Engine bay. I never open it kasi. Haha. Although HITman and I think Uls said pa Engine wash na

Parang hindi ko gusto yung new SA ko. Kasi I've had the same SA since forever pero nag migrate na kasi nung late 2022 ata

Anyway, yung next PMS ko labas ko pagawa kasi it takes me years to reach 5k ko next year baka 1k lang ulit ma add, bili ako Liquimoly saka Baldwin oil filter. Pagawa ko sa labas. Sa 60k na ko ulit mag casa.

How do you see oil dilution? Dipstick? Ganyan din mileage ng back up car ko so I wanna learn how to check.

just have a very consistent way of measuring the dipstick e.g. 12hrs after turning it off, coz the dipstick reading fluctuates depending on temperature, settling time, etc. if you notice oil level increasing then you're having fuel dilution. it's good to have the level at precisely the full mark so it's easy to detect

you gotta drive the car like at least every 2 weeks at highway speeds for a couple of hours to burn off the dilution. but this costs a lot of gasoline, toll fees, wear n tear. so i decided to just change the oil even if it only travelled 1k

Without more context on how the vehicle was driven and maintained over the years i could only speculate it being a lubrication issue and suspect how the recent oil change was performed.

Forgot to put in the oil?

Forgot to tighten the drain bolt?

or naiwan yung old oil filter gasket. then they installed the new oil filter on top of it

Good day. Does anybody here knows how to unmute the Lock and unlock beep when locking the doors of Altis 2013? Thank you.

well, i'm sure it's not the oil.
my guess is, something big and hard metal.
like a connecting rod.

"niredondo" ? define redondo. in a car club meeting, i think "redondo" there may take on new meaning...
heh heh.

recent oil change. that's the clue right there. someone probably did something really stupid
