Probably low quality shocks. What vehicle is this?

Camry 1999. But I fixed Lexus shocks on it.

aieromon:
What is the issue?

My shocks doesn't seem OK. Once I carry 3 persons or more at the back it depresses too low. I just all 4 last September. And it also makes a loud noise on potholes.

Good evening house.
How do I activate security on my Camry 08. Got it a few months ago but it seems not to be working when someone touches the doors or attempts to open, it doesn't make those noise

What do I need to do cos I know all cars have doz security embedded.

Are u sure it comes with such features? Go buy Octopus or Eagle security device and install.

Thanks Adubam for the reply.

Where can one get a correct Vento and for what price?

1.3k I'm not sure of that price. Golf 3 as we speak is 1.6m and above. Except you're looking for Nigeria used

I need an honest advice here.

My dad drive Toyota Camry 2001 but he complains that the cost of maintenance and repairs is a little high. He is a retired teacher and so you could understand why

He wants to dispose that car and get another one that will be cheaper to maintain.

He is suggesting a Volkswagen Vento GL 2000/2001 model.

Can anybody advice me on this? Do you think that one will be cheaper to maintain.

He is not a heavy user. He just needs something to be moving from one place to another.

You could also suggest any alternative.

Budget is 1.3m

Thanks

@Gazzuzz and any other experienced person here.

I used the VW and currently using the Camry 1999 which is almost same with 2001. Vento has cheaper parts and low fuel consumption. It's a good move.

Sheezy008:
Which state I beg

Abuja. Inside Federal Ministry of Justice

horpeyemmi66:
I am having issues doing that, hence the initial question.

I never knew that would be a challenge.

sliksusan:
it is possible but them will use Gambia name do it it is not possible for your real name if you are Muslim like your name like Mohammed or Abdul or whatever Muslim them can use your name do it but if you are christian not possible to use christian name

They are still Christian in Gambia.

sliksusan:
you are right since am travel never in my life use Nigeria passport travel before l have Gambia passport which use it travel when is expire always re new it get new one for immigration office Gambia if you have Gambia passport you can travel to more than 70 country visa free most Caribbean island Gambia passport is visa free there and when you are looking for transit visa on Nigeria passport Gambia passport you didn't need transit visa on Gambia passport l am always advice people try to use another country passport which can make you left nigeria quickly

How do I get Gambia passport?

horpeyemmi66:
Please who knows if I'd be able to get a Guarantor at the Kaduna Immigration Office? I heard people often pay to get one in some other immigration offices in other states.

Get anyone with Intl passport to print it's front page and a passport photograph and a letter attesting you

The change of name is done on the spot with biometrics data capturing.
A slip containing tracking details will then be issued to you to follow-up on when the change will be effected (presumably by the NIMC HQ, Abuja).
It, however, usually takes a couple of days to weeks for the NIMC HQ to validate the name change, before you can print out a new NIN slip.

I did mine 2 weeks ago on the spot. I only went the next day to collect print out due to technical issue.

bfn1:
Change the name on your NIN (Cost: N500+charges via REMITA).
I must confess, however, that changing your name at NIMC can take between 2-3 weeks which can be very frustrating.

Changing of name with NIMC is on the spot.

Ray7878:
Why not? If he can secure it for you then go for it 100%. The fact that you haven’t got any kids yet is a bonus. Being married doesn’t stop you. If you somehow finish your MBA and get job offers here then you can always stay and have your partner to join you for a new life, giving you a good start to a family life. Not saying to do have a great life in Nigeria or anything. But good luck in whatever decision you go with (Wink wink - Come to the UK lol).

OK thanks. My bro has a business there.

Lexusgs430:
Very wrong move o ...... ASUU would soon end their strike. Just do your MBA in Nigeria.......

The MBA is not the main focus. It's the relocating.

My brother is securing an MBA for me in the UK for me to relocate to the UK. I'm afraid if it's a wise move or I should reject the offer. I'm married with no kid yet.

I did they know their names and surnames? Fear naija.

Isoni:
Please i need your advice.

My 2009 Toyota Corolla is not shifting to gear 4. My mechanic noticed it when he changed the fuel pump,

I have changed the transmission oil but the issue persists.

Gear one, two and three changes normally and the car is driving smoothly.

I don't know what the challenge is

If possible, please recommend a very good transmission mechanic in Abuja that i can visit?

I am still confused how to know when gear moves from gear 1 to 4 or 5 on auto transmission ooo. I just put mine on drive and off I go.

EMEKUSBOY9:
Yes my guy still making some calculation

Ok. Good to know.

simontc:

The problem is have already refund the customer. He promise to give me the money if the bank finally credit his account.

You made a big mistake - Never give a customer refund he a situation of this -

CoxxyBrown:
FCMB

I deposited 140k into my own account ohh plus the 30k that I had making a total of 170k guess what?
Fcmb blocked my account and said I should come and upgrade. I said ok that one is not a problem little do I know that am in for stress. After updating I went to get an Atm card cos the one I had before was due to expire this February 2022.
After spending a whole day trying to update my account I was told my the customer care that my name did not match with my Bvn so my account had being blocked, that I need to do a newspaper publication for a change of name.
That's was the beginning of the frustration. I had no money on me still manage to do the newspaper publication take it to the bank after 1week I was told that I should bring police extract( pls which one be police extract), write letter to the Branch manager, fill many forms before my account can be unblocked.
My Brother after so much stress..I was finally cleared this afternoon since around 9am I went to the bank.
Have made of my mind to withdraw all my money from FCMB and closed the Bank.
I can't suffer on top my own money.

This topic came at the right time.

Sorry about this. I told FCMB teller begging me to open an account with them that even if they open an account for me and lodge in 500k I would still not accept it. That bank has frustrated many Civil Servant with loans that interest collected is almost triple what they gave out.

Please how can I resolve these, i am a POS agent, using palmpay POS, i made a transfer to firstbank customer on 22nd December 2021, the transaction was successful but the customer wasn't credited, i contacted palmpay and they gave me session ID to give the customer to go to his bank. We went to the bank the first day and was told the money was hanging somewhere that it will take 24hrs for the transaction to be approved. After like 3days nothing, one week later i went back and they told me to write a letter for the money to be tracked with the session ID, i did all was required but till today the customer never see the money, and no reversal either.
I have used all the available means to engage them even going to different branches of firstbank in my city yet same story. Abeg any advice on how to go about these?

The bulk of it lies on the customer's bank. There is nothing you can do since it showed successful on your own end. I had similar scenario it took almost a month but I got my money back without even calling the POS agent. Let the customer to deal with the headquarters of his bank via email and he will be refunded.

Most naija used cars have been abused before putting up for sale

They are good grade Nigeria used cars. It only requires due diligence when buying

Etizz:
Good day everyone, please I changed my front shock absorber and then increase the height a little......I observed that when ever I am driving for about 30mins, the ABS will pop-up on my dashboard and will remain so, but if I turn off the car and put it On back, it will not come up unless I drive the car for About another 30mins..... please how can I stop it from coming up, what is the danger that may occur with the ABS ON, ....please help...car still runs normal, Toyota Avensis 2005.....

My ABS has been on for ever yet break confirm die. I think the cable of the abs connected to your break system was tampered when the absorbers were worked on. Tell you mech to plug back the cable properly.

I am not in support of looting because many lives that would have be saved are dead now because of the wickedness of his act.

The only good thing about this is that he established the money in Nigeria and created jobs for his people.

Musty4ahmed1:
The major issue with Camry 1999-2001 is suspension issue, If you can ignore the sounds from the suspension, it's a good car very rugged.

If you have money replace the shocks with that of Toyota Highlander, Lexus or Camry Muscle and have rest of mind

Good day Gazzuzz and all in the house...
My kia optima shorts oil. It could take the space of 2 weeks to go from F to E. i currently use a stallion1 full synthetic.

Hello Oga in the house.
Please do you advice buying a toyota Corolla 2009 (manual transmission) naija used.
Thanks for your candid answer

All things being equal the manual transmission is more reliable than auto if you don't mind the stress involve
