What this thread shows is that almost all cars are reliable. Just get a good one and be maintenance concious.

Most reliable ever. #3500 fuel took me from Lag-Akure in 2022 despite blasting at 170kmh. No electrical issues, my manual gearbox was wonderful.

Lost the car in a fire accident February this year when a Dangote truck hit me where I parked by the roadside.

U see this Acura don suffer, ilaro, Abk, Igbo Ora, Ibadan, Island, Yaba I nearly use waka waka kill am. 😂 Just buy fuel put they go ur way, I don break side mirror, scratch the side for pole after shayo. Kiss Napep tire😂. E don suffer no be small and it’s reliable as ever. I will buy a newer model maybe 012/013 forget about Lexus. Just buy fuel, gauge tires oti tan. Will change brake pads soon, the brake no sharp like before again. Just surprised cus I pet that big daddy so much but I drive this Acura with reckless abandon still yet e no gree rough.

Acura ZDX 2012.
2 years later. I still don't have a check engine light. Infact I had to put a bad battery once just to be sure it has check engine light 😂
This car made me realize that if you buy a good car, you will forget where your mechanic's shop is. I only see him once in 3 months now. Just to change oil.

Same here. Infact the man don call me twice since January say he wan greet me. Werey man no call me, I no need your greeting. The check light on my dashboard says Check Tire pressure (TMPS) even after I gauge all tires, possibly a bad sensor Idk. Acura is vastly overlooked, in-fact most Honda cars are.

People who pick Toyota usually intend to use them for over 15 years.

Am not here to stump on your choice of car, just telling you that Toyota is better since brought it (Toyota) up.




That's not true. Which statics did you read that? When it is not the 80s. I don't know anyone that used his/her car for 15 years. Do you know how long 15 years is? Most people I know sell off their cars after 8-10 years and get a new one.

Toyota is good no doubt but there are also very good cars out there,for instance I bought a Nigerian used 2003 Acura RL and used it for 4 years without changing plugs,coil,fan belts,fuel pump,any type of sensor,ac compressor,alternator,infact I didn't even see the kick starter for 4 years,I started to wonder if it has kick starter,I decided to personally kill off the car by driving it for one year steadily daily without oil change still it survived and it didn't for one day refuse to start or stop on the road,I remove my cap for that car,the only issue it has is flood damage that makes it mad sometimes,you can put headlight on and AC will start blowing.mad car.

Lol! You saved the best for the last grin

Yes bro, it's the TPMS sensor. It's very notorious for going bad if not properly handled when fixing tires. And you know how annoying our vulcanizers are in Nigeria. I once had that TPMS sensor issue too, I had to buy a direct replacement at Amazon and took the car to a good autoshop to fix it. If you buy direct replacement, you won't need to program it for it to work but if you buy all those universal once. They will need to program it before it can work for your ACURA. I hope this helps. Nice to meet you my Acura brother. One day, others will understand what we enjoy and why we won't avoid a car just because the parts are expensive.
