I mean to buy a new gear or do a repair to the I have there. Now my question is how much is a new gear or how much would it cost to repair the faulty one? The gear is not moving at all

radautoworks:


A rack and pinion with 1 year warranty from Carquest is N124,100 so don't pay more than that. I'm sure you could find cheaper. We already gave you cost for labor so Max you should pay for the whole replacement is N139,100 parts and labor.

We do not recommend repairing them so we can't give you a guide on that.

i have a 2002 Nissan pathfinder I want to put back to shape, the 4 shocks need changing, the tie rod needs to be changed, steering rack needs changing, brake pads need changing, the ac needs over hauling, I need to oven bake it as well. I'm thinking of going to ladipo, please advice

I have a mechanic I use but the guy's "wuru -wuru" is too much, I don't want to use him anymore.

radautoworks:


If by advice you mean cost, here you go. I'm not going to bother putting parts prices since you're looking at Ladipo. I'll just give you labor times and costs with our hourly rate of N5,000. Ladipo rates should be significantly lower. Anything more than this is gouging.

For Ladipo parts costs, ask Gazzuzz. I think he's over that way if I'm not mistaken.

Front shocks 4.2 hrs. N21,000

Rear shocks. 0.8 hrs. N4,000

Tie rod outer 1.1 hrs. N5,500

Tie rod inner 1.7 hrs. N8,500

Steering rack 2.2 hrs. N11,000

Brake pads front 0.9 hrs. N4,500

Brake shoes rear 1.2 hrs. N6,000

AC unknown without diagnosis

Total if done individually N41,600

Total if all at once. N29,600

I get 550-600km to 80litres of fuel in my car instead of factory 764km should I replace engine or a rebuild? or what do I do to get back up?

radautoworks:


It's perfectly normal to not meet factory gas mileage especially with the kind of gas, driving habits, filters and engine oil you use. Unless something else is wrong and you suddenly lost gas mileage, thinking about the engine is Overkill.

Repairing an automatic gear box is 50/50. You may or may not get the result. Sometimes it even get worse.
The best advice is to replace it.

I use recommended engine oils, liquimolly, I really want to at least close the gap maybe by 120km, what can I do?

What year and model and how long ago did your consumption increase? What's the best it ever was? These are diesel codes.

So do you guys do gasket replacement ? I called your shop and they said they don’t do cylinder head resurfacing , wondering if you fix gaskets without machining the cylinder heads
