hmm, is there any noise/clatter dat u can hear arising after it was changed? it is loud/bad?

 

[haki]

my oil was missing...i checked before and after my journey, there are different, a huge different

 

[xtremeleo]

dat crekk noise, it is loud? at what rpm does it happen? was it there prior to the replacement?

 

[haki]

at all rpm..it sound when im accelerate and the dissapear slowly..it happen each time whem im acc..yup after the timing belt replacement

 

[xtremeleo]

nobody can be for sure witout seeing/hearing it first hand, but it doesnt sound good tu

 

[mADmAN]

did u allow sometime for ur engine oil to go back to the sump before checking?

give it 1 or 2 hours of shut down then check again to be sure

 

[haki]

i checked it on the morning before i start the engine.....

I do not see any relation between wrongly installed timing belt and loss of quarter engine oil after 1 day oil-changed.

Check your engine thoroughly for any oil-leak. Could be the nut/bolt at the oil sump loose?
If your engine burnt the engine oil (quarter of the capacity) in 1 day, you should smells "nice-perfume" from the exhaust and also it should produce some "foggy-cloud"

 

[egb18c]

yupe what he said is correct(above).
better for u to put old newspaper under the engine to check whether theres an oil leak.
check the spark plug if theres oil.
exhaust got blueish smoke?

if the belt is wrongly fitted in, especially when the cam timing is off, the valve and pistons can collide, in which if the cam timing is off just a bit, then the collision may not be dat catastrophic. the head may be lifted off, by just a tiny margin, dat opens a comparatively large clearance around the head gasket area, dat allows high pressurized engine oil to sip out. it has happened

I did experienced the same (timing off a little bit, because not installed properly)...
But, I was just suffered some little power-loss, and it didn't effect/reduce the engine oil quantity, sir.

Anyway, I would say loss of quarter of engine oil capacity in 1 day, that's really scary.

blue smoke indicate that there an oil leak,maybe somewhere in the turbo,if u have a turbo powered car,or the piston ring is faulty.
another thing,my eg used to a leak on the head cover,oil is flooding in the spark plug area.just unplug the coil and see whether there oil covering up the rubber.
check ur oil filter,whether it is tighten or not.
did u already put surat khabar lame under ur engine?whats the result?

i check no oil under my engine i saw during engine oil replacement..got little engine oil on my spark plug..if this happen usually cos by what and what need to repair to solve it?

 

[xtremeleo]

can u please clarify the source of the oil leak? please check around the head gasket area, its a tad lower then the plugs' area sir, tq

 

[haki]

no sir, there is no leaking around the head gasket..but when i last service my car and change spark plug there are small amount of engine oil on the spark plug head..could you please enlighten me what are the effect if this happen how to solve it..thanks..

 

[xtremeleo]

if oil is visible in the plugs area, usually the oil seal for the plugs' holes are faulty, changing dat shud solve the problem. but the thing is, u shudnt lose too much oil if dat does happen.

what oil are u using? and from where did u get it?
