Hmmm...interesting. Rainfall was concentrated in the area.... couldn't the pilot circle until the storm subsided?...or was he low on fuel?... With such rain... there is usually high winds ... was shear a factor?...which usually result in planes skidding off the strip?.. Heavy rains mean low visibility... were there lights on the runway to guide the pilot?... if not ...maybe he misjudged the strip. Is there good drainage for the rains to quickly run off... or was it all flooded? The good thing is... there is enough room for the plane to safely come to a stop. They need to investigate and take corrective actions.

AgreatMan:
If you think rain or mud is slippery, try snow.

There r airports in countries with like Russia, Canada, China, UK etc where they r snow but things things like this don't come up.

No excuse for failure o. That plane tire don chop, make them go replace am and resurface d tarmac. They should also check the brakes on the aircraft or perhaps, consider replacing some of their flying Dinosaurs.

The reality has Dawn on baba , he is tired of driving out in the morning and pushing/towing back in the evening

2005 4runner what's your view about it?

MChaze25:
See Yeye maintenance. You don't even warm it abi?

iHart:
See what is happening with LASTMA, imagine what will happen when we have state police.

sultaan:
With great powers come great responsibilities.

Our people should stop buying these luxury cars if they can find support for it.

An engine will give a lot of warning before total failure. Our people ignore all those warning lights because it is normal.

If you have to own a car, buy the one you want to own not the one that will own you

HeavenlyBang:
Making big power on a small engine is nothing impressive.

Making big power on a small engine without it grenading after 5k miles is what is actually worthy of note.

I agree, German cars are the best for speeding. Their balance is outer-worldy.

tensazangetsu20:
I have seen you mention the BMW electric water pump over and over again as a very unreliable gadget. You do realise the tokunbo ones do not work right because of how they are stored. BMW recommends storing them with coolant if they are ever removed for a long period of time. I got an F10 with water pump issues at the beginning of the year. Imported new OEM water pumps and the car has been fine ever since. Most cars will eliminate mechanical water pumps especially with the introduction of 48 volt systems. Mercedes already has in its new M256 engines. I expect the Japanese to follow suit in the next six or seven years.

NB: The cost of the water pump and importation down to Nigeria came down to 130k. It could have been cheaper if I went for the Siemens VDO aftermarket one. I was looking for strictly OEM from BMW and I didn't know then that Siemens is the one who made those water pumps for BMW. The tokunbo ones I tried that all failed came in at around 80000.

kingreign:
None are reliable. They're both very reliable especially the BMW with its electric water pump. Notorious electrical, terribly made interior bits and trims, poor quality plastics and poor ergonomics.

RexTramadol1:
Mercedes can somersault very well



But it often lands back on its tyres and not upside down.

drpossibilities:
I just got the MDX, 2004 Model. How do you manage the issue of recommended fuel that is Premium Unleaded Fuel.

CityNGR:
Coils don't jerk only when driving... They must at least cause a misfire at idle.... I'd go with oluwaseunla's prognosis... Mounts, tranny. Op all the best. But why not scan the vehicle?

thebigkendo:
Have you heard about SH-AWD

CityNGR:
Not all Sienna cars are Sienna. When you do direct fan connection, you are bound to have overheating problems with Lagos endemic traffic. But in all sincerity the Sienna trumps the Acura

greenhulk:
Do not be deceived. AWD sedans don't offer any significant advantage over FWD in mud or sand. In fact if u are not a type that likes to race then u don't need an AWD sedan. Its just an extra thing that would break.

computerboy:
@OP I know you already own this car but sentiments aside, which would you pick between your car and same year GS350 2007 and what are your reasons?

and why do people in this section prefer IS350 to GS350?
