Years back my friend had this honda accord that developed gear problem when he went somewhere, the car was automatic and couldn't go beyond gear one.
He managed to take the car to the mechanic.

The mechanic guy said the problem was the top gasket,and it was going to cost 35k to fix.
My guy got angry and took the car home.
Little did he know that the anger was God trying to save him from the hand of kazeem.

We eventually carried ourselves back to the guy.
The work he estimated to take 35k later entered 47k.
My friend protested and calmed down.

At the end of the day the gear did not still select well,the guy will ask us to buy this and buy that until the money spent was almost 100k,the gear still did not work well.

He ended up damaging the engine of the car.

It was later another mechanic came and discovered it was the speedometer that had issues which didn't take up to five thousand naira to fix

That was how kazeem damaged a new engine will his half baked car experience.

Let me drop this general observation I made about mechanics.

If you go to any mechanic and see plenty expensive cars abandoned everytime, RUN.
It is either He Charges expensive or he doesn't really know the work.
The later is mostly the case because people who buy such expensive cars,money to fix it won't be a problem.

I am saying this because I have observed that most people choose mechanics to fix their cars based on the number of "fine" cars always parked at the mechanics workshop.

Somebody bought a Nigerian used Honda Accord and the seller introduced him to a nearby mechanic. While doing some repairs on the car, the mechanic drove the car in mud and the mud covered radiator. When the new owner was driving home, overheating began and valve seal was burnt, las las the engine continue to smoke and kill plugs until the new owner sold it as scrap.

I remember what Mechanic did to my car.
He did not tight my steering well.
I was driving and it was as if village people was dragging steering with me.

When I took it to another mechanic he told me I was lucky,that the steering has almost loosened,I could have lost control of the car.
