Car Talk / Re: Choice Of Engine Oil ? by aeu1: 12:47pm On Aug 29, 2014
CityNG: Greetings.

I'm working on bringing in Mobil1 oils as well as other maintenance parts in.

Price of a jug (5 quarts) should be around N10k and I'm thinking of running a special to include oil filter.

Read more on Kuluso or NaijaDrives (see signature).

Thanks.
Check your email. I a hint on how you can make it cheap and sell imported synthetic just a little above conventional oil.
Thanks

GAZZUZZ:

I have 3 solutions for u.

1. Check all boot seals (rubber that runs round) ensure its fittet well along the frame.
2.Get in the boot with a flash light and have some one hose the car down with water with ur flash light look for leaks

3.Check taillight seals or the trunk weatherstrip. Water might be flowing down the sheet metal.
Also check the seal on your antenna


The water doesn't have to drip into the boot and soak through. It can often run along the metal and run underneath the soundproofing and the carpet

Best of luck.
Buzz, thanks for your answer. actually the water drips in through taillight seal. that has been fixed today. God bless

Op
great initiative, wrong method.
having said that, we need acknowledge that doing things differently gives us the platform to distinguish and excel. We have a rigid knack for copying one another without any inclination to add more value or solve problem. All over, we are given the sole option to import phone, tablet, sensor, perfume, Biro pen, and slim textbooks, or we forget it.
Op really raised hope when he opened this thread with this beautiful caption. Why not take advise and modify your plan and allow us order heavy parts including tires, rims, panel, engine top, engine oil, headlamps, etc. After all cars are being shipped everyday, yet we don't want to ship in parts too to support them.
I suggest you liaise with an agent there, allow Nigerians to order anything they want, then if it fills a container, sea freight is the best form of transport for auto business. Equally, spaces in CBM can be booked on containers and you ship whenever the desired spaced has been attained.
This online parts order business that you are hastily glossing over is a very fertile and largely unexplored one that people like you with golden opportunity need to take advantage of instead of asking us to do courier of spare parts as if it were document like DHL.
Imagine, in Nigeria there is not a single original car battery, yet it cost the same price over there with the fake we have here, but who will dare courier car battery and pay per kg.
After the initial shipment, you may discover that the demand may still flow in thus making it a permanent business for you.

Health / Re: Doctor in the House: Free Medical Advice Available by aeu1: 5:22pm On Aug 22, 2014
Doctor,
I woke up one day to discover a slight swelling at my back - upper right side. At times Its itchy. When I scratch, it appears as if it swells a bit. I took antibiotics and rub clotrimazole cream as prescribed by a nurse. I have not seen any improvement. I discover when I bath with warm water, it subsides and shrinks. Please what remedy do you recommend

For enlightenment sake, if an approved engine oil is 5w30 for a car but in event of non availability of such decides to use a thinner oil such as 5w20 + oil treatment (to improve the viscosity), is there any danger in doing this?

I believe it is the muscle type you are referring to. It is used by my former employers. Its comfortable and reliable and fuel economy. I don't know your purse, but parts may be little high but hardly break down if well cared for. Go for it.

oya, attach the product prices to each of the items so that viewers can take decision. Mind you there are others that can buy and resell. What are you hiding?

Phones / Re: Tecno And Gsmarena by aeu1: 2:25am On Jul 10, 2014
What many dont know is how contract manufacturing and the likes work. Tecno is not a phone manufacturer at all but I prefer to tagg them phone merchants. If you buy from factory like those alibaba factories at a certain minimum quantity, you can request for your band to be stamped on the product, that is why Tecnophones only has cosmetic difference with other chinese phones. Those factories are the ones that are even involved in research if they are big enough. All of us can replicate what Tecno is doing, no big deal. The only issue is the capital. Samsung, Nokia, etc develops their products and give out for mass production, that is why they hold patents on certain inventions. Why Tecno and the likes are popular is their cheap prices. Note that these products are also there in western countries in different names. In US, one of the importer there brands it BLU - there is no difference whatsoever with Tecno, Gionee, etc, save the label and shape. Hope you guys get the pucture now. However, I think the major thing is for a serious minded company is to register their model with relevant authorities and set up quality control and research/development department to ensure a full fledged structure as a distinct manufacturer, not just buying from same source from any alibaba factory in large scale and make adverts and sell

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by aeu1: 2:15pm On Jul 07, 2014
I will need diagrams to cater for:

2. Installation of thermostat
3. Knock sensor bank 1
akanxpress [at] yahoo.co.uk
GAZZUZZ:

Are you good at diy? If yes start by looking for disconnected sockets around radiator area, looked for taped cut or taped wires, its a very easy job if the mumu that disconnected them didn't butcher the harness too much.

Factory wiring diagrams are in pdf send email. When sending don't use @ use (at) to avoid spam.

I'll sort out your wiring diagrams tomorrow.
Hello Sir Siena,

I had messaged you on BB chat, still no response. This has always been my experience so far. Since you mentioned BB chat is preferable by you, I always wonder why you readily add me up but you ignore my communications especially when I so much look forward to your wonderful help. kindly let me know how best to reach you. Thanks

Thanks sir, I will check. Pls what could be responsible for clicking sounding like a bunch of key by the front right suspension although a mechanic earlier told me that shock absorber is weak, but I did a paint work on that front right fender of the car before this sound comes on whenever the tire rolls on uneven road surface.
Also, what can be responsible for the left side stabilizer linkage cutting or not being effective, fake part or structural defect of the chasis?

Actually, I got the car with the both the radiator and condenser fans connected directly thereby making the engine to run very cold, especially on cold days. I suspect the thermostat has been removed too. So, I'll need wiring diagrams to enable me DIY:
1) restore the fan connections to factory setting and
2) how to plant back the thermostat and possible opening temperature of OEM thermostat.
I believe you now know the right diagrams to give me to cover the 2 projects above.
