thats a classic example which manual car owners enjoy!noted.

Not just manual.
Put ur automatic car on Neutral and it will gladly roll down a slope

Then switching off ac in traffic.
Then trying to ......

But the issue is that


Nigeria has the highest cost of PMS in OPEC nations don't blame them


Buy a four cylinder car then have rest of mind
Drive a manual car that will reduce your visit to mechanic
Buy a sealed oil


Tokunbo parts are better cos new are fake

You can't do that cos your automatic car must be on park when the ignition is off so it can't roll

Your wrong here bro

I did it yesterday.
My automatic has a neutral gear (N)
I put it on N then turn off the engine and let it roll. I was stuck in that eko bridge traffic and my fuel was low

hehehehehehehehe

Asking girls for money and telling them that they will pound them well ??This one beats me

Nigeria the country like no other

My people, I have complete vehicle's documents but anytime I can afford to do so, I will always prefer to avoid Lagos traffic officials (be it VIO, FRSC, police, etc). Those guys are bunch of nuisance I will prefer not to have anything at all to do with. I will prefer not to even talk to them. They infuriate me, their conduct is totally repugnant. They are just out to extort and nothing more. I used to drive in Ibadan, they don't constitute nuisance as the ones in Lagos. Lagos traffic official are touts (area boys) in uniforms.

nigeria the country of endless sagas..

it depend on the type of transmission. If its hydraulic transmission, ok.... But with cvvt, no no.

wo.... When u are low on fuel and u are afraid of your vehicle going off, you wont even think about the gear. Getting home will be ur no 1 priority.

Well, what i know is that the engine/torque converter disengage at low rpm so shifting from D to N while in motion doesnt affect the gear....

But if u mistakenly shift to Reverse instead of Neutral....

Some cars will simply go off if the gear manages to enter reverse. It's happened to me before..

Taxi drivers changing gear before the engine has gotten a chance to increase even the smallest RPM. They will be in gear 5 by 40km/hr

automatic transmission owners enjoy dsame bro..... Move the shift to N(neutral) and the car will roll down the slope and u can restart it even when still in motion on neutral.....

Cunny country, Cunny citizens. I put my country

I used to be very guilty of No. 1, when I hadn't processed the new drivers license. Mehn! I knew all the usual spots for all uniformed men at any particular point of the day. I left early in the day, and returned late in the evening. If I needed to go out during the day and would have to drive through those spots, I took alternative routes.
But the OP left one, how about motorists trying to avoid a LASTMA official/police impounding their vehicle or extorting them?

Like i always tell my friends, don't buy a car unless you have a steady source of income and not depending on God to fuel and maintain your car.

I have seen some wicked truck drivers put some oil into the diesel tank to thicken the fuel and reduce consumption. At the experience of those following them behind as the truck will be releasing so much smoke so .such that you can't stay at their back and you can't see well enough to overtake them.

I only do the number 1 offence. The so called biometric driver's license will be done when I start driving during the daytime.

you know where you dey so?

oweniwe:


says who? I do with it auto jor.

If am low on fuel, i rev up my sienna, take foot off the accelerator and shift the gear to Neutral...... When the car slows down, i shift it back to D, rev up, back to Neutral again.

Don't try this on a busy road o....

Please explain the implementation for better enlightenment cos I'm a new driver....

oseiwe:

you know where you dey so?

Nairaland?

Hmmmm...... I am guilty of buying Tokunbo Tyres, but I will never do that again, just bought all four, Goodyear, but my spare na still Toks...

And if you drive a fairly used second hand Tokunbo, you must have these guys as personal buddies, brake master, alignment normally called ELA in local parlance, a very sound REWIRE, and a vulcanizer [i][/i] for cold patching of ur worn tokunbo tyres...

I jus came here to say "Na lie u dey lie". That's all

That number 4 and 5 makes me worried you are thinking upside down
ofcourse tokunbo spare part is better than brand new cos its very hard to find original spear parts in Nigeria
lastly why living in banana island when 2 years rent will build you nice duplex at egbeda
You guys should be realistic and stop living a fake life

meeeehnn!!!!, this OP is rilli on point....
where you copy ham from?

Commercial drivers are guilty of this.especially danfo drivers. Some of them no dey get conductor again. Them go just say make people gather the money come from back.some of them would even parked and make sure the money is completed before moving. This is common in lagos mainland here.

9icetoo:
U forgot to add "turning off ignition on slopes to save fuel".

They do this a lot in ogbomoso, Abeokuta and Ibadan.

6 cylinders dey chop fuel!

Solution: Block fuel lines to convert it to 4 cylinders vehicle.

Those mechanics....
