Hello house, please could I kindly ask what are the most in-demand auto parts if I wanted to dabble into exporting them to Nigeria from here (overseas)? Thank you kindly for your time!
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Harbewilliams(m): 1:32pm On Feb 25, 2018
Drivers are too desperate most times and take unrealistic conditions from car owners,

my advice to car owners, don't put repairs and maintenance cost on the driver. he will end up not fixing it, if he can manage it or he comes to drop the car if he cant come up with the cash. That cost of repairs you are trying to avoid, you will end up paying double of it when he drops the car.

A driver has cost already, he fuels the car, take care of issues with tyres which is inevitable, changing of bulbs etc..

Car owners try and be reasonable with expectations (roi) this is not MMM. Ask questions when the need arises, If you don't have time to manage and go through the stress of the business outsource it to a fleet manager.

Transportation business is one of the businesses you invest in today and expect cash the following week, Invest wisely

Good morning colleagues

I bough foreign used Peugeot 206 2003 model, the car was very clean and okay. But the only problem is when you start the car you must return the key to its normal position other wise the would not return automatically which can result in burning the starter.

I need an advice , in case if someone have encountered similar problem how did he resolve it?

Is the check engine light illuminated on your dashboard? If yes, have your car scanned may be the catalyst is blocked & your engine may be loosing power. If no, then let a mechanic test the fuel pressure

It could be your compressor dragging the engine. Have an AC specialist work on your compressor

Check if you can readjust it from the shock. Slack the 2 bolts holding the shock & reposition the hub accordingly.

Thanks. In doing as you described I have found that the bushing on the rod holding the bottom of the assembly has some play. I will have the bushing changed to see if the problem is solved

Hi, very sorry for digressing from the topic.... Please I need expert advice on my car,

I used Audi A4 2002 2.0. I recently walked in to a workshop where I complain about my speedometer not working and they traced it down to a faulty tone ring that is slack on the flywheel.....(I am not too good on this part names). The tone ring was removed and I drove down to another place without the tone ring for like an hour just to check someone. After few hours, I drove out and the problem started.... ... i just observed that the car was not moving well, I shifted the gear to manual mode and saw that the gear has been on gear 1 not able to move to other gear. I packed and tried other position like reverse and N position, they all work. I later called my mechanic who checked the gear oil and confirmed it was okay. Now, some said my gear is faulty that I need to change it, some said it is electrical problem. Can the tone ring absence cause the gear to be stick to gear 1? please I need experience advice before they spoil this car for me.... Thanks
