Hello gazuuz , just to confirm if the Hyundai Tucson(US) and ix35 in naija share the same engine parts for ease of replacement. I intend getting the Tucson from US.
Advice please

I have had the IX35 since 2012 without any issues. Buy the four Cylinder version, it's extremely reliable.

Your car can be raised even without changing the tires contact radautoworks

Yes, you can use spacers/lift kits but car will never ride the same and it's expensive for what you get IMO. You have to lift in 12mm increments. So, if the lift kit exists, yes. But again the cost for a Corolla.

Good day Gazzuzz

Greetings on your contributions here.

Please, I have a Honda Accord 2003. The steering has a little clearance and the steering rack has been leaking oil for quite a while now so I usually top it up ftom yime to time. Last week, I bought ABRO oil to top up. Today, I noticed the steering started getting stiff. I took it to my mechanic who checked and said the power steering pump wasn't working well and needs to be changed or repaired. He also advised I change or repair the rack too.

Pls do you think I can use it for a while if I repair it or is it better I just go ahead and buy a new one? Also, I'm thinking it may be due to the new oil because I can't remember using this oil with it before

Replace steering rack, steering pump and use proper honda steering fluid. You are looking at over 100k.

Good Day Boss in the House, please I do like to know what could be wrong my Toyota corolla 05 , CHECK ENGINE LIGHT has been ON for a while now.

Quick ground clearance but a worse ride. And again, not cheap. If we were lifting a truck, sure but a Corolla just to get 12mm?

Boss Gazzuzz,

I often hear a squeaky sound from the belt side of my toyota Corolla engine 2003 whenever I start it.

If I pour water on the belt, it stops.

My mecho said I should change the adjuster, I did, but the noise persists. He later suggested that I should get a tokunbo belt to replace the previous one, I did that and the issue is not resolved still.

The good thing is when the engine is started without the belt running, the engine works well without the squeaky sound.

Please help me. What could be the likely cause?

Or should I bring it to your workshop?

I will appreciate your feedback sir.

Thanks.

Hello Sir, please which car brand is good for inter and intra-city commercial transportation?
Considering that I am on a budget of <500k and do not mind the age of the car.
Please also Note: fuel efficiency, cheap maintenance cost(part replacement and repair),
Thanks.

It would be mostly for inter-city transportation across the southwest states and occasional intra-city commute (charter).
I am outside Lagos
