Car TalkRe: Help!!! I Need Help On What To Look Out For When Purchasing A Tokunbo Car by abolore80(m): 7:46am On Jul 30, 2016
Check the body, the trim, the paint, tires- you may need to get new tires, the interior, ascertain it's LHD and not converted, listen to the sound of the engine- let it idle for ten minutes, you can test drive as well, check that the thermostat is intact, check the indomie as well, it may have been removed, check the cluster for irregular warning lights etc. Make sure you're satisfied with before paying. Enjoy!

Your temperature gauge shows that your thermostat has been removed. Except if it isn't too long you started the vehicle before taking the pictures.

Car TalkRe: First Oil Change, Is SAE 10W-30 Available? by abolore80(op): 10:06am On May 29, 2016
That's the reason, I brought the issue up. The previa is tokunbo and engine seems to be at its best. I mean clean and relatively unused. Are you saying, 5w30 is a better option? Am yet to change the oil that came with it though. Mind u, this vehicle has gone to Abuja twice and the change oil light is ON, on the cluster.

nakoks:
I am shocked that gazzuz recommended 20w50 for a car just because of age.If that previa is tokunbo and the previous owner or owners have stuck to 10w30 and engine is still in pristine condition,20w50 will bring that engine to comatose maybe not immediately but surely.

I believe at start ups the thickness of 20w50 will wear that engine faster and eventually compression will drop and engine will be struggling.

Dear gazzuz on this one i believe ur counsel is not the best.My two cents poster stick to mobil 1 5w30 which is readily available at mobil stations

@GAZZUZ, an advert has been made here which is 10w40. Will be okay for the vehicle or 20w50 as you've recommended will be fine? Your advice is required. Thanks
Car TalkRe: First Oil Change, Is SAE 10W-30 Available? by abolore80(op): 4:41am On May 26, 2016
Ok GAZZUZ, do you mean I should ignore the 10w30 that's Writen on the engine cap. And that 20w50 will be a better option because of the age. It's a toyota previa 94, manual. Will change the oil ptobably this weekend as the change oil light is ON on the cluster. Thanks
Car TalkRe: First Oil Change, Is SAE 10W-30 Available? by abolore80(op): 8:55am On May 23, 2016
Thanks Gazzuz. Year of production is 94.
Car TalkFirst Oil Change, Is SAE 10W-30 Available? by abolore80(op): 11:49am On May 21, 2016
Hello house, just got a toyota previa. Am abou to give it, it's first service/oil change. I check the cap and it read SAE 10W-30. Can I get the oil grade here and which of the oil brands has it.

Note: Gazzuz, Sienna etal, please I need your expert advice. Thanks
Car TalkRe: Howling Sound From The Front Of A Honda Shuttle. by abolore80(op): 12:03pm On Apr 29, 2016
@Autojoshng thanks, will find out from the mechanic if the new hub we got came with a bearing or whether he used the previous bearing on the new hub. That will lead us somewhere. Will get back to you as soon as I find out.
Car TalkRe: Howling Sound From The Front Of A Honda Shuttle. by abolore80(op): 6:48am On Apr 29, 2016
Thanks Sienna, will check the wheel bearing out. However, let me ask this question. Is the wheel bearing attached to the hub. Remember I've changed the hub and the noise still persist. Or where is the wheel bearing situated?
Car TalkRe: Howling Sound From The Front Of A Honda Shuttle. by abolore80(op): 2:45pm On Apr 28, 2016
Thanks AutojoshNG, will look at the three possible causes you've highlighted. The tires are relatively new andi just did alignment about 3weeks ago. I will look at swapping the tires and then do another alignment and balancing. I gauged the gear oil 3days ago and the it's okay. If it's due to bearing wear, does that mean that the transmission is going bad? Am sorry about the double post, it's due to network error. I must have reposted again when the first one I posted brought an error reply. Will look at those 3 areas and then get back to the house. Thanks

Car TalkRe: What Exactly Is Wrong With Mitsubishi Engines? by abolore80(m): 10:40pm On Jan 16, 2016
that's my observation too with many mitsubishi that I've come across. though they have good build and highly fuel efficient, but their drawbacks is that, their engines are not built to stand the test of time. it smokes easily and I think it has to do with their engines. mitsubishi really need to work on their engines. for now, it's a No No for me.

Car TalkRe: Which Of These Two Vehicles Should I Go For? by abolore80(m): 6:44pm On Nov 08, 2015
The year of a vehicle does not really matter. What matters most is how it was maintained. A car is as good as new if it is very well maintained. Although, Nigerian factor may include because of our bad roads and poor maintenance culture. But, you still have some people who take absolute care of their vehicles. From latest tires, to recommended oil change and OEM parts.

What about classic cars that were produced 20-30years back and are still as good as new.
It's choice anyway. My opinion is that, you don't choose a car. You put certain things into consideration like your work schedule, your area and if you will doing inter-state trips also.

You have to look at your environment to pick a car and don't pick a car and then the environment deals with it.
Car TalkRe: 1000km Journey Using a 1.5L petrol engine, CLARION CALL by abolore80(m): 5:09pm On Nov 08, 2015
It's not all about speeding or over-speeding. It's about confidence, being attentive and maintaining a steady speed. Like I said earlier, op was agitated, curious, and got distracted by other cars. 80-100mph is a good spead at any time.

With that speed, you can easily and quickly respond to any urgent pop-ups, or powering down to dodge a pot hole and mostly importantly have a idea of how the engine is performing. Travelling isn't about race, but about getting to your destination. Op forgot about this because he was agitated.

The capacity of the engine does not matter, but how you handle and drive it, is what matters.
With 80-100mph and occasional 120mph will get you to your destination even if you arrive an hour late late after those flying hummer buses.

I challenge you, if you're a Nigerian, get that vehicle fixed and drive it back to lagos yourself. You stand to gain a lot of experience from that. Atleast, you won't be road jjc again. There's always a first time and you've had your own fair share.

Fix it and drive it back to become a pro.
Car TalkRe: Which Of These Two Vehicles Should I Go For? by abolore80(m): 3:09pm On Nov 08, 2015
Both cars are good in terms of durability, maintenance, fuel economy, and availability of parts. I don't know what offer you're getting for the two. But sincerely, the highlander is a more stronger SUV. It's ground clearance is good and it comes in both 4plugs and 6plugs.

Which ever you get is good. It may lack some ancillary features that the accord may present but it's definitely a good option. It's very rugged, it's fuel economy is good, and again it's an SUV.
