She jokingly asked that the family make sure that he did not take the car home with him after the homecoming festivities. The uncle took what Nobuhle said to heart and plotted against her.
He filled her car’s petrol tank with soil, dishwashing liquid, salt and water. The concoction caused a leakage and destroyed the engine.
South Africans were amazed by how far the uncle took things. Nobuhle hopes that the mechanic will be able to fix the damage as she cannot afford to buy a new car.
She captioned her post:
“If you were hated in the family when you were young, you will always be hated.”

Key tips to keep car engine healthy and in shape
The car engine is the heart of a car, which needs to be healthy at all times. An article by HT Auto Desk explained that the engine must be in perfect shape for a vehicle to function efficiently, which can be ensured by following some necessary yet straightforward steps.
Key tips for healthy engine:
- Change engine oil periodically to keep all essential parts well lubricated, ensuring smooth operation and minimal wear and tear due to friction.
- Keep changing engine coolant to ensure the powertrain is not impacted by the heat produced during its functioning.
- Keep the air filter clean to ensure that the air intake into the engine does not bring any unwanted particles, which can harm the motor.
- Check for oil leaks regularly. If they occur, they should be immediately fixed to avoid significant damage to the engine and the vehicle.
- Don’t drive on reserve as a fuel tank contains sediments that are really bad for the engine's delicate parts that lie at the bottom of the fuel tank, and if you drive with the reserve fuel, they get to the engine.
