Lagos is my Location



Not from the bonnet either...
Once it rains,inside of the car is very dry but once I remove the footmat everywhere is soaked...

From my experience, the problem should be from Air conditioning system. There is a blockage in the exhaust pipe under the dashboard that denies the the drained water exit thus the recirculation under your footmat.
Most technicians don't know this. If you are in Lagos - I can give the contact of my friend - to link you with the panel beater that resolved his - If you still cannot get someone knowledgeable to do it.
PM me.

Klasha app didn't allow me to complete my registration and transact and their complaint6 avoided my enquiries.
Please which other virtual card app do you advise since goto is gone?

bro, pls i need ur help. This bastard seller i paid on aliexpress to sell to me samsung s21 ultra send me iphone 12 mini instead. Ofcourse a cheaper phone. The idiot is now telling me i shoukd return it to get a refund. Already i have lodged a dispute at aliexpress already. He has replied saying i should return to get a refund. But i dont even have time to go through the hassle of refund moreover i learnt speedaf doesnt even do refunds sef. So abeg what can i do abeg. The phone is unopened sef and i just want my money back cos the seller was obviously fraudulent.

If you still have grace period.before the System automatically close your order, I will advise you to cancel the dispute and open another one immediately.
State that you cannot shoulder financial responsibility for the mischief of the seller among your reasons.
Do as you were earlier advised.

Please what can I do.

Anytime I enter my kitchen, I always see small small cockroaches in my kitchen cabinets.

They will be hiding in different corners of both my up and down cabinets.

And these are where I store kitchen utensils.

I always put sniper (insecticide) in my kitchen to kill them but after two week, I will see them all over again roaming about my kitchen cabinets and cupboards

What do I do?

== THE ONLY SOLUTION ==
Buy Green Powder _ Insect powder _ you will find it in shops supermarkets or chemicals or Agro chemicals shop.
it use to be N100 /sachet.
Buy up to 10 - 25 sachets and spread the powder around where the insects are usually found.
They will eat the powder and die after some days.
** You can only eliminate them by feeding them!

You can imagine that I am unable to complete KYC registration of my address form on this same klasha for over a month now.
Last that I wanted to log in - I couldn't do so again, after one compulsory update.
Their customer support is total rubbish.
I'm surprised that you guys say that they are good and even recommending the app.

Hi guys
I just received a call to pick up my aliexpress order of February from NIPOST, Uyo.
Tracking NO: SY15046584200

SilentVboy:
Please guys have anyone collected any item from post office from February 2023 till date at Uyo-Akwaibom state?

I don't know what's happening there. I went there around 2nd week of march and was told that items have not arrived Uyo post office since the ending of Jan 2023.
One person there said it was due to cash crunch issue.

My item has been cleared by customs based on tracking online, since Feb 13, 2023. But up till now it has not arrived.

Is anyone experiencing this at other branches?

An insider confided with me that they have not been using their drivers and bus again but third party agents who brings deliveries 2 times a month.
It's so abnormal.

Klasha...
I can't verify my address since yesterday, Imagine the auto suggest wnats to suggest my address for me.
The submission button does not highlight to allow for submission of filled address form.
The representative is blaming system congestion.
Any suggestion?

"But why are their parts so expensive if as they claim they have no middle man and are direct with manufacturers? Afterall they are a Carquest "


Ladies and gentlemen, the answer is simple-NIGERIA. No matter how honest you try to be the system encourages illegal behavior.

Case in point an issue I am actively wrestling as we speak that has been progressively getting worse over the past year.

When you import parts worth $1,800 (complete with manufacturer invoices attached to the pallet), pay shipping of $1,700 and customs decides that they know better than the manufacturer and says the goods cost $8,000 then hands you a duty bill of N1.6m ($3,333), what price can you then sell to your customer for? We fight it and usually get it down somebut that usually delays deliveries by 3-4 weeks

Could we do like others and smuggle? Yes, we could but why would we put such a large investment at risk? We believe in transparency and doing things the right way but when a system takes advantage of that, what is your recourse? Despite that, we have never passed on the cost to the customer and simply relied on a low margin-high volume model.

So the next time you feel that Carquest prices are high, don't blame us, blame the system. I'm all ears if anyone has A LEGAL way to bring prices lower for our customers.

See images below.

Sorry I did not read your post from the beginning but I saw a red flag - thus my intervention.
Never use companies like FEDEX, UPS to ship (except unavoidable) because the complaints about crazy customs billing is assured.
Look for guys that does shipping /clearing business and use them or ship and clear yourself.
I have a feeling the guys at Fedex customs section connive with customs to fleece their clients.
... my suspicion is based on many years of repeated patterns of observation and wide feedback.

Depending on the city you are.
If you are in Abuja It will be very viable because you will see rides with sufficient distance/time per trip to earn you returns. eg 2k, 3k, 4k a drop kind of business.
In smaller towns - the truth is that you will be earning to refuel your ride. N600/drop and the likes. To squeeze out true profit under this climate is hard especially for your engine size.
What I am saying. Just try out and see. If it works out for you - fine. If not, report your experience as well to guide/inform others who may come up with this question in the future.
God bless you.

Do you sell engine parts for Toyota 1ZZ-FE engine?

Thank you sir and God bless you.

owo4mii:

Aaaaarghmed:
The elantra is very economical on fuel than the lexus..very sleek to drive just that it's not as fast as the lexus.since you are a civil servant it fits you very well as the price of fuel skyrocket.the lexus will make police disturb you thinking you are a keyboard guy.one of my boss uses the elantra.the steering soft die.But the car is not fast enough for me since am used to Honda accords quickness

Okay.
Thanks

Carlanders speaking

jonas117:
But which one go dey cheaper to maintain na, consider am with availability of the parts too, I think that's what he's looking for

Smithkline200:
I’m sorry but this comparison is dumb.


You compare a 2003 Lexus to a 2011 Elantra??

Please go for Elantra! No competition

I have to ask because I don't claim expertise on subjects outside my competencies: There had been long standing impression:-
- that Japanese cars are far superior to Korean - that Lexus is an upscale version of Toyota.
- that Hyundai materials are not rugged and
- there was a time where Korean car parts were to expensive and limited.
- I'm aware that some properly built cars still do have strong demand even at older age and some cars even when new are to be avoided based on technical or other reason.
This thus form the basis of my comparison between the two and according become the reason why I came to an open forum to be indoctrinated properly.
Thanks for your time and Idea

Itsrm:
Doesn't seem to me like you have a choice.

Please can you step down so that I can really understand your point;
Which of them are you referring to ?

More inputs pls

goldtube:
Take the Hyundai Elantra 2011, more recent modern tech and safety features. I see no comparison here cos that Lexus is too old, if you are to get a Lexus get the es350

Thanks Man for your advice.

Actually, from what I studied, the engine 1MZ-FE is same as the V6 versions of Toyota Camry Orobo, Tiny Light Envelope light, and Big for Nothing and then 1994–2004 Toyota Avalon, 1997–2002 Toyota Sienna, etc. So, I don't think the engine parts commands an exotic price except for the body parts - which is not interchangeable with the common Toyota parts.
I do sincerely appreciate your profound comments - sir. God bless you.

ehmmy11:
The lexus should get the pick because you live in Nigeria, mechanics will be more comfortable working on it, spare parts available but abit pricey. Besides it's the better built car. over look the fuel ratings you can't have it all ..

PS: owning the lexus will make you have irritating, unwanted and unnecessary interactions with the NPF

Noted and corrected. Thanks

homeboy205:
Here in the picture, Hyundai is at 112.463 miles against your 114

I am at the crossroads of making a choice between Lexus ES300 (2002), 194,600miles and Hyundai Elantra 2011, 112,463miles.

What I like in the Lexus will be the high quality build and reliability and my concern as as now will be the fuel consumption of the 3.0L V6 motor of 14.701 L/100km.

Then for the Hyundai Elantra, what I admire about it should be the economic 1.8L motor with acclaimed 8.4L/100km fuel consumption rating. But I do not know much about the durability and cost of spare parts.

Both cars are expected from USA.
I may not factor what ought to be the most vital consideration when one aims at cars apart from focus on fuel consumption and engine mileage, that's why I humbly now present to this wonderful forum to solicit for superior advice on best option amongst the two.
Purpose: Daily use to commute to work (Civil service middle level) and then shopping and church at weekends. Events: I seldom attend, maybe 5 times yearly.
Total mileage per year is about 10,000miles (based on my past 6 years movement record).
So, based on my profile above, I am sure you may comment keeping an eye on:
- Cost of spare parts (and extent of availability)
- Mechanics' relative understanding of how to diagnose and fix.
- How rugged or durable the engine, body, interior and suspension are.
- Any technical or performance issues peculiar to each of them
- Your experience in using them.

Should I try again?

If Jumia can't curtail these bad vendors. It's totally their fault. Yes. It's jumia's Fault. If we stop blasting them, faulty or fake products will keep arriving at people's door steps.

I quite agree with you. Quality control measures are lacking with all the local online stores.

Sorain:
A package was sent to US, how long will it take before it’s get to Lagos?

2 - 4 weeks approximately.
