Despite you are a kazeem mechanic and car hawker, you should help but no, simply because you don't know anything than gibberish you spit.

Calculusx vs Legalwealth

That you said legalwealth has never recovered got me laughing out loud.

On a serious note; I, legalwealth later bought Lexus Es 350 2010 after that 2007 the dealer used cement to patch caused issue and was returned to him grin.

I also have foreign used Lexus Es 350 2009 and 2012 for sale since last month though wink


You legalwealth bought a flooded, and structurally damaged vehicle . You also hid the vin, but as luck would have it, you were caught .



Meanwhile summary of your pathetic life.



You put your hands into everything and anything without researching , and finally make a failure or of it.

You did cryptocurrency failed in Lagos, went to Abuja

Did generator shower cap failed

Did c caution failed

Did website failed

Sold engine oil failed

Car sales terrible failure

Bought scanner to copy.... uz and become a mechanic failed

The only thing you have succeeded in is maintaining this alternate profile for a while without getting ban.

Look around you, all the people you have cursed are progressing,


Business failed.

Selling vehicle you purchased at over 6.2m @ 5.5m asking price

Frankly it seems you are no good at anything grin

Obekediamondfuto

You abandoned your old moniker out of shame when your recent broke pictures wearing bend down select clothings and shoes were posted.

You started using this alternate moniker sharing its password with other members of your gang.



A cursed failure sees nothing but failures in everything.

Thanks for confirming that you are a failure who sees and experience failures with nothing than hating and blabbing here and there.

Don't get something worthwhile doing instead of wasting your time in those childish and devilish acts.

They wait for you and your generation.

grin grin grin

You and your gang member dare not say amen to that declaration on its original thread you were blabbing on, knowing you are all lying and fabricating as usual.

lateefat101:


Without being sentimental, true nature of the vehicle should not be based on the history of the car about 7 years ago but should rather be on recent history. Recent history has it that the vehicle is in and has been in perfect condition without salvage brand but clear title assigned to it.

As as far as this vehicle is concerned, it is still a reasonable slightly accidented one based on it having clear title with buyer protection still valid on its autocheck report.

Why?

Minor accident that happened to it(vehicle manufactured 8 years ago) 7 years ago was fixed in USA.
Minor water issue that happened to it(vehicle manufactured 8 years ago) about 7 years ago was fixed in USA by Lexus and its normal operation was also confirmed in the report.

That said, structural damage on history as a result of the minor front impact in 2013 was just normal term usually used.
Minor water issue termed as flood was just also normal term usually used.

wink

Niseed:
Fair explanation, the seller is being overly emotional and defensive. No doubt, The car will be sold at the right price.

There was no need for all the chats being posted and trying to explain away/guessing what could have happened to the vehicle when he wasn't even the importer.

Happy sales all the same


lateefat101:


Seeing things from the angle of history of what happened between seller and those still attacking without concrete reasons, the reaction is normal.

lateefat101:


Any seller has right to publicly disclose VIN or not for one or two reasons and that does not mean the seller is fraudulent.

Pointing to that and tagging it as fraud is baseless and could be senseless.

Vehicle was declared clear title and not clean title. That happened to come out exactly as it was disclosed on original post and fraction of the autocheck VIN report amidst other things were shown to validate things.

I bring once again what you chronic hypocrites dare not say amen to all these while than blabbing.

Anyone of you who is the true son of his father should reply with amen else you are not and it won't even be surprising.

Presegs:



Only if what you and your coys are painfully saying/fabricating out of jealousy is true, then is whatever you all lay your hands on will prosper and not be damaged or shattered.

If not true and this car is perfectly okay even without having total loss record but genuine clear title, If you have been thinking what you are laying your hands are prospering, they will not only become flooded and structurally damaged but also be shattered while you are all alive.


Amen! !!

How many of you starting from you can quote and reply this declaration with amen to make it come through as fast as possible?

We are waiting to see your amens also grin

OP what you have been going through changing these parts I sense was done by the dealer who sold to your brother, the guy don change change tire! Finally he decided to cover the engine lights, I think the car is a lemon..a lot of people has worked on the Car before, best bet may be to change the engine.

Or it can be resolved by a good talented mechanic, it may come back again later!


OP, I just gave you a scope work with it or leave it, the money is still urs, (Flesh & Blood did not reveal this to me).

Update:
In my quest to get a tokunbo PCM that will match the highlander I got one from a seller in Abuja.
When he brought it, I noticed that the part number didn't match.
I told him of my observation and he said it will work.

We plugged in the PCM and started the car...
Boom the rpm went up to red as I floored the gas pedal cheesy
I was thanking my stars and took the vehicle for a test drive.
I noticed that shifting from 3rd to 4th gear was not smooth.
I told the seller that I can't accept the ECU!...I was disappointed sad
He brought more ECUs with the same part number as the one we already tested in the vehicle...the story remained the same....shifting problem and CEL will disappear and come back later.
Also, I tried to scan the vehicle with my OBDII scanner but it won't communicate with d vehicle when the new PCM is connected to the vehicle.

Long story short...We are still in the market for PCM angry

Ignition coil A primary/secondary circuit
Ignition coil B primary/secondary circuit
Ignition coil C primary/secondary circuit
Ignition coil D primary/secondary circuit

The mechanics have done the following:
Changed airflow sensor.
Changed throttle body
Changed throttle pedel.
Changed temperature sensor.
After all these, still the vehicle won't rev past 2000 rpm.

I told them to return all the parts they changed.
I called someone and he said the PCM needs to be replaced for the vehicle to work properly.

The CEL and VSC warning lights are permanently on all the time no matter how many times they tried to erase them.
I will be happy if you can give me a lead sire.
4 coils can't be bad and the vehicle still moves. Check the ground for the coils. It's imperative buyers scan cars before they buy. There are tips. Most dealers disconnect the battery of cars they sell. If you just connect the battery, start up and scan, chances of picking up a CEL if present will be very low. So drive the car around well or leave to steam for a very long time before scanning. Again don't depend on turning the igntion on to know if CEL and other lights appear momentarily. I heard there is a new connection they do. They connect CEL, VSC and airbag light to battery light. So all 3 work in synchrony with battery light so that when you turn on igntion, they all illuminate and go away after some seconds like there is no fault even when there is.

It has been confirmed that the coils or wiring have nothing to with the problem.
The painful part is that the ECM of the vehicle is very scarce....almost impossible to get .

We have searched everywhere in Abuja and lagos without success.
I contacted sellers on every platform I know, sent someone to ladipo.
I had to order one from Ebay at last for $273 angry
As for the dealers, A time will come when most people will order their vehicles themselves and they will be out of business.
