This is not true.

The right answer is the temperature reading.

You can see that the pointer is exactly at the middle.

If the thermostat had been tampered with, the temperature would be below the middle mark.

Thanks gee for the clarification. Gazzuzz, thanks too. Learnt smth new

Cool. Welcome. Now stay away from lastma and their wahalla. They auction people's cara now in lagos for violating one way driving. Make sure you don't fall a victim. If in doubt, use the road you know even if it's longer. Don't follow yellow buses going one way against traffic. Latsma will ignore them and impound your vehicle.
Welcome.

Have a safe trip. I will be making a similar journey but to Ebonyi same day. We could tag along. However, I do not stop except to buy fuel. cheesy

Can confirm everything here. Please don't take the interstate highway. Take the old road:
Amawbia--Abagana--Ogidi--Onitsha.

30 minutes drive.

Take off your tint if you know say no too get leg. I was just in an altercation with the police about mine. Drive jeje in Onitsha, the military isn't too happy right now.

Safe trip. It's a straightforward journey, I'd say.


I see no reason why Op should remove his tint, as long as he has permit and doctor's report.

@heavenlybang kindly elaborate on the bolded

The Camry seems in a great condition. And I made the vendor sign a warranty for me. Only thing is I intend using it as mg utility for now so I need it been in a pristine shape before travelling over 12hrs with it
