Btw MDX, ZDX (Acura) & Avalon 13/14, which would you suggest for a buyer?


In terms of
1) Driving experience
2) Durability
3) Cost of maintenance
4) Naija factor
5) Second value(In case I want to re sell in future)
6)Other
Which one should one go far?. The budget can buy any of the 3 (direct tokunbo). Please I'll appreciate suggestions with reasons and facts.

Firstly you need to scan your car as it is compatible with OBD scanner.
one or more of these might also be the problem;
1. Bad spark plugs
2. Faulty ECU (brain box)
3. Faulty oxygen sensor & maf sensor
4. Faulty fuel pump which can over pressurize.

They are not the same body type sir.
ZDX is a CUV while Avalon is a Sedan.

Good day all forumites, I’ve got this tiny but important issue with my Car(Chrysler Voyager 2000). The interior rug and car cloth(esp the seats) is very dirty because it’s been abandoned for some months. Any DIY tweak anyone can recommend to me on how to wipe the stains and avoid making my car smelly due to water on rugs and all that... Thanks in anticipation!

Do not buy 2003 Altima.
Any car fits anyone.

I viewed your posts and I must say, you are making yourself vulnerable to scammers by stating how much you have in various posts.
I suggest you go through the following thread to gather more information and never overlook the need for professional review before final choice.
