No big deal na. Just go there and tell them you want to liquidate.


As you do, bear In mind that you have already collected the interest upfront except if you invested with the interest. There is also the likelyhood that it would be offered for sale @ lower rate than you got it to attract new buyers or the bank that is collecting it back.

Also, bear in mind that you might incurr a penal charge for liquidating before maturity.


Ok thanks

I use the same platform and the ease of doing everything on same is top-notch. The only short-coming of the platform I know is that both interest and principal are paid at maturity.

Pls do you know the procedure to liquidate my treasury bills with zenith bank before maturity? I need d money badly and it was in April I subscribed.
Can I get it and what's d procedure

Na normal thing. If d leak is not visible in d hood, then its from d evaporator. It might be the expansion valve sha, not the evaporator itself. So let him investigate well. Before coming to conclusion.
AC and overheating problem are my worst fears in a car.
Thanks for your input. I hope it will be something minor like the valve because he said he need to loose it to know exactly where d leakage is coming from. Since he has checked all visible parts. because if u put gas now, in less than an hour d gas go leak comot finish

Instead of patching compressor and evaporator, why not change AC technician, visit a competent technician, let him go thru the whole process again, replace defective parts and call it a day?
Thanks
I think he didnā€™t do a thorough check initially to ascertain where d issue was coming from. He only use d sound from d compressor to chop money because what he changed was just a small rubber which he claimed was d seal. Na d fear of not tampering with other things if d dashboard is loose dey worry me

I'll suggest you share your location so people can recommend strong hands to you. If you must bring down the dashboard, better to have someone who knows what he's doing do it.

I've seen where someone opened dashboard to fix a leak and forgot to connect the evaporator thermostat. The dashboard had to be opened a second time.

And who knows, the issue may not even be coming from the evaporator.
Iā€™m on the island around Obalende
The Ac guy is at Okesuna in Lagos island

Opening dashboard is normal for critical AC issues but how good is the person in question?
This is my exact fear
I donā€™t know if heā€™s good with it make he no go cause another issue for my car
I checked a video on YouTube and I saw how tedious it is to get to where the evaporator is
All dash with steering will be loose

Hi co-pilots
My Camry 2.4 Ac was not cooling last month and when ir was checked, we discovered thereā€™s no gas in it. We decided to check where the leakage was coming from and after filling little gas, a leak sound was coming out from d compressor body. It was fixed that day which was on 7th of January. I didnā€™t drive d car since that day because I took it for general body repair (panel and painting)
I collected the car back on Sunday and find out the Ac is blowing heat again. I returned it on Monday and I was told that the gas has escaped because of not using the car for close to a month ( I had my doubt but) so we decided to just fill gas again and it was cooling at that moment but after driving for few minutes it stopped cooling again. It will cool few seconds and not cool again
I returned it again yesterday and d Ac guy start checking all over again. He told me that the leakage is from the evaporator which he will need to loose the dashboard to get to where the evaporator is.
Pls gurus in the house, pls what are my chances with this Ac guy and his decision to loose my dashboard.
I need the Ac for the hustle Iā€™m using the car for.

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by abiolag(m): 7:38am On Nov 10, 2023
Good morning
My car idle rpm fluctuates. Sometimes too high and after driving for some minutes it will go down. And most times it will go so low while driving which makes d car to off sometime (most especially in traffic). Sometime it will be difficult for the car to restart because the battery will appear so weak to restart the car. Iā€™ve changed battery and also work on the alternator when I was informed it was doing slow charging.
Whenever throttle body is cleaned it will get better for like 2 days and start misbehaving again.
Base on my rewire suggestion to stop the slow charging issue, I decided to change the throttle body yesterday but surprisingly the RPM has remained above 1 since and even this morning when I start the car it was so high almost getting to 2000rpm at idle. The mechanic guy told me that it will normalise with Time which I donā€™t know how long it will take.
Please what could be the next thing I will do to get a normal rpm?
I drive Camry 2004

Take it elsewhere, scan with a competent scan tool.
Thanks for your input šŸ™šŸ¾
I started the car in the afternoon and noticed the abs and brake light were not showing again but door light and cruise light started blinking with airbag light šŸ˜€
I called another Rewire who could not even say anything reasonable. I decided to drive the car for like 30 minutes around without Ac and when I put on the Ac after like 45 minutes the car just went off. I start it again and all lights were gone and it became normal again.
I drove for another 2 hours and no light.
Though I washed the engine a day earlier maybe that could be the reason for the malfunctions

Tell your rewire to reinstall whatsoever he pulled out. When he reinstall it back, flee from him, go elsewhere and scan it then post codes.
He has already put it back and scan but claimed the machine could not read it
