Good evening Sir ..
Car has been worked upon .. two front sensors changed .. billed 120k .. They also said there was a blockage in the flow of brake fluid in the pipe .. and also a depleted brake disc

If they used factory parts then that is a deal.

My shop rate plus parts will be more than that.

Find the cause of the blockage, it’s unusual.

Depleted disc as in worn out of spec?

My own repair will be replace both discs on the same axle. With ABS, if you hope to rely on effective use then both discs need to be same thickness. But......

Yea worn out disc ..
was blocked by sand or some particles .. I checked d filter and its still neat so am sort of puzzled where those particles came from ..
Another one popped up again .. power steering pump is ceasing and flinging the belt away .. I used two belts before I got home ... I looked at the protector and its still there ..
mehn I wonder why Infiniti's problems always come in series

Are you serious or just joking?

Particles in the break line?

Pick up location will be in Ibadan.

Hello sir. I will appreciate your views on a R Class 2007 model. Apologies for going off topic

It is not off topic, it's still automobile related.

I've never owned an R class and I tend to give opinions on models that I've personally owned. That being said, since it's a Mercedes then it's a buy for me.

All I can ask is that you "buy" the individual car, not the manufacturer or the seller.

In case you need a vehicle history report ---> https://www.nairaland.com/4460217/experians-autocheck-vehicle-history-report

Good luck.

The shop website is [url]TobiMotors.Com[/url] but currently only doing limited sales and service.

The Nairaland username for the shop is SalesTobiMotors and operated mostly by my Sales Associate in Ibadan

Thanks.

Mention coupon code "Azikwe" for storewide 10% discount on parts and accessories.

Hmmm....I have no parts to recommend. ..nor need any....but find this thread very interesting.

Thanks a lot for your comment. I get the individual car part very well. Unfortunately, I'm not sure the history report check would be possible in this case as the said vehicle is in the middle east. Although the owner told me it's mostly maintained by the Mercedes dealership here, I'm not sure the dealership here shares its records with people in the U.S.
