Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Androidking: 9:30am On Aug 17, 2023 |
Hello, I parked my car for long, just like 3 weeks and fuel was on reserve, so I decided to buy some fuel and do small errand with it, after purchasing the fuel, The car won't start again, I tot its battery dying, I hire battery, still it didn't work. Called Electrician we rested the fuel pump pressure it good. He checked one the coil, why I tried to start it, he said its not producing any spark, So we believed it could be the start sensor (crankshaft sensor) I think that's the right name. So we removed the old one and put another one coz the old one is even rusting already, but after doing the replacement, it didn't work. He checked all the fuse they are all OK. What could be the problem. We now observed that when you on the ignition. Just before you start the car, the security sensor is still blinking. So we took the brain box and the keys for sensor inspection and computer reading says they fine. Please what is going on any help or solutions pls help me. Car is RX300 |

Androidking:Remote diagnosis would be impossible at this moment. Get a competent technician that knows how to use a multimeter and test lamp to check that car before they condemn your ECU. |

Good evening. I’m about to get my first car and every useful advice will be appreciated. I’m an introvert hence I don’t have friends to consult. Factors to consider: I live in abuja and stay in town,the probability of me driving to an untareed road is low My work requires me to move around alot within the city centre. (Sometimes my daily Uber fare ranges between 20-30k since the fuel hike) I’ll be leaving the country in 2yrs time, hence I need the car for just 2yrs, I’ll most likely not sell it then. I want something reliable, BUT FANCY I want a car with low fuel consumption. I hate cars with fabric seats I was using a 2012 sonata and I Loved it, however it was an official car and maintenance cost was on the company, I would love to buy sane car, but nairaland review is scary. I’m considering 2014 Elantra or Sonata…. But I keep hearing they’re not reliable. Based on the above points what’s the best car you would advice I get. Ps: THE BUDGET IS 5m |

My car was involved in an accident, and since then I couldn’t purchase another one. One day, my friend introduced me to the Be Rich Platform and I found out that I could purchase any car of my choice for 33% off the original amount of the car. Car Deposit: helps our users to purchase any car of their choice for 33% off the original price. You can check their platform on Instagram https://instagram.com/be_rich_africa?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA

Registerforumj: Go for an elantra, civic or corolla. For the price, it's not bad, but you may need yo up your budget a bit. If you need a trustworthy person to help with pre-purchase inspection or to even scout for you feel free to contact me. |

Fieryblaze: Avoid that ford. The benz isn't bad, but why not do a Toyota Highlander or a venza or a Lexus RX350? |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Djponpin1(m): 10:22am On Aug 25, 2023 |
Have been thinking of calm and average car to buy, at least something I can drive to work and church. Have been thinking of benz c-300 AMG 4matic 2010 or 2011, Lexus ES 350 2011 or 2012 Honda Accord 2013 My budget is 6 million to 7 million. Thanks for taking your time to read and reply |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by searchng4love: 3:37am On Aug 26, 2023 |
Fieryblaze:Your choices: the ford... very bad choice The GLK... moderately reliable The Highlander advised by the two previous people is the bomb... coming from a Benz enthusiast. The GLK repairs will most times need specialized technicians and equipments... Unlike the Highlander.... If reliability is your dream...then the Highlander it is. But if show offs and you don't mind your car spending a few days in the workshop or you having to queue for the mechanic then the GLK it is. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder |

Hi there! Thanks for creating this room for us to chat and share our thoughts. I'm excited to join this community and look forward to engaging with everyone. Speaking of transportation, have you ever had a wild a taxi drive on https://13cabstaxis.com.au/location/melbourne/? I once took a taxi in a foreign city, and the driver was so reckless it felt like a rollercoaster ride! Anyway, enough about that. What inspired you to create this room, and what do you hope to achieve? |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Trustmea: 2:23am On Sep 08, 2023 |
Hello gurus pls I'm in a deep dilemma choosing between 2016 Lexus Es 350 and 2016 Mercedes E350. Professionals pls which one can I go for in consideration for the one that has more comfort, luxury and durability. Your urgent tips is highly needed before I make a mistake |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by kingreign(m): 3:23am On Sep 08, 2023 |
Trustmea: Lexus |

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by jceesquare(m): 9:33am On Sep 08, 2023 |
Trustmea:It's not fair putting luxury and durability in same sentence. If you can comfortably afford both, then go for the Mercedes. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Trustmea: 9:36am On Sep 08, 2023 |
jceesquare:Pls can u give a reason why Mercedes is better, I really want the one with more luxury as a major factor |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by jceesquare(m): 9:43am On Sep 08, 2023 |
Trustmea:You've answered the question yourself. Like I said earlier, if you can comfortably afford both, then go for the Mercedes as it gives you more luxury. Just do due diligence and go with a trusted tech for prepurchase inspection. If you have none and reside in Lagos, feel free to call 07089030689 for inspection and other car related services. |
