How can 13pin be 650k? Except he add cost of labour and gear oil and other repairs

450k? I can guarantee you that gear box has been repackaged, use it maximum 2-3 months you are gonna buy another one.

Don't think so. that 650k is for 2GR engine. Go and do your research and update us. Gearbox don't just get spoilt. If it is working fine then it can serve you for a very long time except you fail to change the oil regularly or it is contaminated by other repair works, water from flooding, failed radiator etc

Auto transmission radiator has an integrated transmission cooler/warmer and when these integrated transmission cooler fail, radiator coolant may find their way into the transmission and ruin it.
A lot of Nissan Xterra, pathfinder, navara etc with the 4.0 v6 are known to have these issues.

Forget Jiji, most traders don’t have time to advertise on Jiji, na scammers and Baranda boys Dey run advert to defraud unsuspecting people to run them streets.
As for the price, I replaced a U151F (13pin) in not too long ago for a rav4 v6 in Abuja, the price was above 650k. However, I cannot speak on behalf of others.

Thanks kingreign. But that v6 is a 2GR engine. I am talking about RX 330 with a 3MZ engine. Could the 2GR and the 3MZ be using same gearbox?

Okay. I just check online to see that there is a difference between U151 E and U151 F. One is front wheel drive while the other is AWD. That could be the difference in the price

13 pin is 13 pin as long as it's the same awd version.

The price will be the same regardless.

There are different types of 13pin.

1. U250E-2AZ
2. U151E FW
3. U151F AWD

Will check for more

The part sellers knows this hence the reason they’ll first ask if it’s V6 or 4 cylinder, AWD or 2 wheel drive. They may not know the actual transmission name (U660 or U250) but from the drive train type and accompanying engine they know. Then there’s also the difference in bell housing shape (agbada or casing) and bolt location.

I am writing to share a cautionary tale about my recent experience with Chinozo G.O Merchants Limited and its proprietor, Chinonzo, whose contact numbers include +234903380638, +2349034100449, and +2348173341689. This warning extends to their branch office located at "Jesus is the Lord Block 18 Shop 18, Aguiyi Irons Int'l Trade Centre (Paramo), Ladipo, Mushin, Lagos," as well as their head office situated at "Jesus the Light of Salvation Block 20 Shop 7, Aguiyi Irons Int'l Trade Centre (Paramo), Ladipo, Mushin, Lagos."

Recently, I purchased a Lexus 350 gear from Chinozo G.O Merchants Limited at the price of 960,000. Unfortunately, the gear turned out to be defective, and the situation escalated when I discovered that Chinonzo had packaged and sold it to me despite being aware of the issues.

I engaged Mr. Emmanuel, a trusted engineer, to assess the situation, only to find that Chinozo G.O Merchants Limited's unethical practices extend to colluding with professionals in the field. Even at Ladipo, where trust is paramount, it appears that one cannot be too careful. Trust no one and always go there with different engineers.

Despite the gear coming with a warranty, Chinozo refused to honor it. When I requested a replacement, he declined and insisted I pay an additional 500,000 for the replacement, even within the warranty period. His sweet talk and saintly demeanor quickly vanished, revealing a less scrupulous side.

I write this message as a warning to the public—be cautious when dealing with Chinozo G.O Merchants Limited and its proprietor, Chinonzo. Do not trust their promises, and approach any transaction with them at your own risk. My aim is to prevent others from facing the difficulties I encountered.

Please share this message within your networks to protect fellow community members from potential scams and unscrupulous practices associated with Chinozo G.O Merchants Limited.

Thank you for your attention.

Best regards ooo.
