totowater:That thing they adopt o. Abi you never know? Him preeq pass piking head? Very soon na him go start dey complain say your pussy too big. Shey you like money, enjoy it na. Afterall, some girls dey find that kinda preeq. |
EgunMogaji:Compression definitely reduces but not bad enough to stop the engine from running well unless the car previously had compression problems. |
I really loved it for a change. That's a spice to the whole show in my opinion. What do you think? |
robosky02:I loved Krest bitter lemon, thats why i still love Schweppes and Team |
Onyochejohn:I, on the other hand think both of you are correct. The reason mechanics double gasket is to compensated for a warped head cylinder. The warping is compensated for by the double gasket which allows the head cylinder to close perfectly without changing or machining the head cylinder. This is true for your position. The negative effect of that is what the other poster captured. The double gasket creates a little more clearance in the cylinder effectively increasing the cubic capacity of the cylinders. This increase is not compensated by the air fuel ratio mix and other engine management systems. Eventually leading to less performance. |
These things are the kinds of things our useless National assembly should be passing laws against. Instead they are busy amending CCT laws and other irrelevant ones threatening the VP to sign. I expected them to make a strong law against corruption possible increasing sentence to life or death, but no, that will affect them and their sponsors. |
luxy44:I didnt say that because someone said it. I actually saw 2 garages in Akwa Ibom, one in Abak road precisely with very expensive BMW cars abandoned. Thats like 2years ago so i cant get back there to get proof for you thats why i let that matter go. In Nigeria, an ABS crippling your car on certain locations is a death wish. There are places in Abj that your car will be seriously vandalised if it breaks down. |
luxy44:Have you compared all the above especially considering year of cars? Are you saying BMW is the best just because you use it? Have you considered ease of repairs. Dont you know that 80% of mechanics in Nigeria are more conversant with Toyota and Honda? I made an example on NL before, a bad ABS speed sensor will only deactivate the ABS system on a Japanese car the same fault in a German car cripples it. I know of a Volkswagen which will not shift gear because of an ABS speed sensor, a Benz that went into limp mode, limiting the car from going more than 60km/hr. The one for Benz happened to me midway traveling from Akwa Ibom to Kaduna. The journey became a 2 day journey as a result while travelling at 60km/h on an 800km journey. This is a typical example. It is not just linkages and kickstarter. These parts are easy DIY projects, electrical problems are the more difficult problems for mechanics and we all know German cars are more electrically complicated and these problems are more crippling. How much is Benz replacement key and its programing in comparison to the average Japanese cars of similar year? Compare, not just give your experience with one car. I am certainly not saying BMW is a bad car, i am simple making a comparison with common problems for these cars. I also know that its not a fair comparison since a 2009 Acura is compared to a 2007 530. |
luxy44:Among the 3 cars, it is the oldest, it is the most expensive to buy and maintain, it is the least powerful (except op wants the 550 V8). |
Sorry to be negative, but its the reality. Just imagine 10-15 years from now, she will be out of control exploring boys, then you will be helpless. In your mind, she is that your sweet cute little niece but would turn into a rude sexy girl that the neighborhood boys wanna lay while you are trying your best to protect her. I had a cute late cousin whom i loved so well, her case was different, she was a nightmare to guys who troop around. This girl had the perfect coke bottle shape endowed with hips that even her mama was jealous. This little girl was no nonsense but we got favours for her. The meat seller gave us double portion and sometimes intestines for pepper soup free. She is the one who constantly goes to the market because she will get the best prices. At least i trust her to handle herself with guys. I pray your niece ends up like my beloved late cousin |
luxy44:Say what you wanna say, driving experience and reliability are 2 different things. Op didnt ask for driving experience, he asked for reliability. Dont assume you know me, fortunately or unfortunately,the 2006 5 series is the only car i have driven among the lot. |
Android must be upgradable. I handle phones well so will plan to keep a phone for a long time. When i get version update, my enthusiasm on the phone is renewed without necessarily planing for a new one. |
Readonee35L:Am actually a Honda/fan. adanny01: |
Readonee35L:Thats the 3.7L TL |
kingreign:QUite well. GS is 303hp while TL has 280 for both 3.5L engines while the GS is still a tad better on gas. |
Jokerman:Looks like you are truely a Jokerman. Does Jonathan have any case in court like Diezani or Yakub? Are both of them not facing their own charges? What is the charge for Jonathan? Why is it that Dasuki is in jail but Jonathan is not? Every body is responsible for his own actions. Buhari's lawyer is only responsible for his own actions yet alot of Nigerians want to see Buhari roped to any corruption charge for what aim. CCT chairman escaped the same kind of thing because his PA was directly responsible but not him. It seems Nigerians or majority of Nlanders wish to see that Buhari is corrupt or wish that corruption never ends in this country. |
Emassive:Buhari's lawyer and the rest of the lawyers who gave gifts are all corrupt. The matter i am pointing out is that the people the lawyers are representing may not know of the bribe so cannot be responsible and may not be regarded as corrupt. We all know, lawyers go out of their way to win cases and get paid so they do even illegal things. Use your head. |
Nigerians are gullible. Imagine a Senator who supposedly has common sense. My lawyer pays bribe, am i responsible for his actions? |
Did CCT chairman's PA collect bribe, YES Did CCT chairman collect bribe, NO CCT chairman would have collected bribe if he got the money from the PA. Did Buhari's Lawyer pay bribe, Yes Did Buhari pay bribe, NO Buhari would have paid bribe if he gave money to the Lawyer for the purpose of bribe. Buhari could have paid normal representation fees but the lawyer could have used it to pay bribe to facilitate the case, either way, it is almost impossible to rope Buhari in the bribe unless one decides not be sincere. |
Opel Vectra same as Vauxhall marque same as Vauxhall Cavalier and later as the Vauxhall Vectra in the UK while it is Holden Vectra in Australia and Chevrolet Vectra in Latin America. Volkswagen Sharan same as SEAT Alhambra same as Ford Galaxy |
OBAnkemi:A technology that is worth N50m cannot be the same with that worth N20m. Before making such comments find out how much the Benz cost, at least the 508 from this thread cost less than 20m. Do you know how much a brand new MBenz C class is in comparison to a peugeot 508? Thats where to start. Compare cars of the same class say MBenz C class and BMW 3 series which are on the same class. What you are doing is comparing Hussain Bolt to Blessing Okagbare. The question is, is 508 even in the same class with Accord or Camry? You like one car and you compare every thing to that car. Very soon you will compare Kia Picanto to G wagon just because you like Benz and Picanto seem to as boxy as G wagon! Why in this world would you compare 2016 accord to a 2006 C class? Why for God's sake? Even Benz management will be angry at you. Let me break your bubble, 2016 Accord V6 is 3.5L same as Benz C350. But Accord has 26mpg combined and 278hp while 2006 C350 has 21mpg bombined and 268hp. That makes the accord better fuel efficient and better horsepower for the same size of engine. As far as am concerned, its cheating to compare 2016 to 2006 so lets use the 2006 accord. Accord has a 3.0L engine, 21mpg combined and 244hp while C350 has a 3.5L engine, 21mpg combined and 268hp. Dont you see 2 cars of the same age and performance? Unfortunately, these 2 cars are still not in the same class as Benz is a Luxury sedan class car and Accord a full sized sedan class. So to be fair to the accord you have to drop to a C 280 which also has a 3.0L engine like the accord but a 228hp and 21mpg combined. Now even not in the same class, there is a serious competition here with Accord leading the C280 in terms of horsepower. Even with this advantage, the Benz is far mor expensive to the Accord. |
From reverse, 2009 Acura TL is my first choice followed by the Lexus GS 350. Lexus na pure water. Acura will attract eyes, bring envy and set you among big bois. The number of BMW's abandoned in BM mechanic shops is alarming. The cost of parts is through the roof. You must be diligent to use the BM. |
I dont think any of these guys will be the next president. I believe its either Buhari himself or some one who is not expected and chosen by Buhari/Tinubu. |
If this guy says "he does not consider the money a bribe" I really do not find him truth worthy to believe any allegation he has to share. |
OBAnkemi:It is also pathetic to compare a car worth more than N50m to a car worth less than N20m. When you compare, please do it holistically. |
It hurts to think el Rufai actually supports this. South Africans kill Nigerians and Nigerians kill Nigerians while elRufai pays other Africans to do more. Sometimes i think elRufai who thinks of himself as an intellectual is actually a very dumb bigot. |
That means the earliest we may here of PDP again is something like 2023! |
