If only they can focus on their marketing strategy

HazzanTazzan:
You're def a fool...

To even face me and say rubbish.

Firstly, they sold me a car without custom paper... I asked for custom papers before making payment but they said papers will be brought out after I pay...

After payment, story changed... they didn't know it didn't have papers... pay extra 60k for the papers...

Engine is almost dead...

Gear is almost dead...

And so on...

So you in your shallow mind believe cars45 wrote these things on their report for me and I bought the car?

In short, you're a bastard to even defend what's not defendable...

Naija used cars with wrong oil, tiny plugs irrespective of number, thermostat removed, fan permanently on, air filter clogged, using seahorse as gear oil, using abro for power steering fluid, using winter tyes and all season tyres on the same car and when the end result is giving the owners nightmare, they look for a place to sell. The used car dealers will put the car in their shop for months telling them that no buyer o and will be using the car in the meantime adding 6 litres all the time thus ruining the nozzles. Then after 3 months of waiting, the owner because he has been made carless, decides to sell the car and get his money instantly. Cars45 will evaluate and pay the seller instantly and will advertise the same car without repairing the defects, documenting all the pros and cons. Their strong online presence made afangsoup(now 4 days old soup) to leave his base to buy from their yard. That is the state of naija used cars and that is why we should make everyone follow the owner's manual for proper maintenance because our friends or relations might buy these crappy cars as their first car.

No wonder you are seeking for a pound of flesh. It is the reason why we need to sit up and pass the information around. A Mercedes compressor is a supercharged version and so it does not tolerate our fuel and coupled with the 20w50 oil, the engine will pack up followed by the gear. It is glaring that the previous owner having destroyed his car thru his stinginess quickly offloaded the car on them and the new buyer had to rectify what the previous buyer did. Is it cars45 error of judgement buying such a car? Now you are crying fraud and you are not taking any initiative to stem the root cause of why naija used cars are crappy. The oil, the plugs and the many ignorance of the practitioners in the field. If your mechanic could not detect sludge in that engine before allowing you to pay, then he is the Uyo version of kazeem. And you are blaming cars45 for buying the car in that dismal state and selling in that same state. I think they should engage good mechanics as their consultants to verify cars before they purchase it from the owners. Go to the housing estate on the road to Ibom hotel and tell the woman there to give you correct afang soup and not the 2 days own wey you call yourself. I go pay

Craze dey worry you. Him name pass Trump own . Sinparty crew. You buy car and e loss? Common sense has not made any one of you to tell the buyer to present the car report that she was given. Do you know how much compuglobal charge for car history? She paid deposit and came back to pay the balance and all through, no technician followed her. And you dey speak oyinbo dey abuse your superiors for what does not concern you. Na so something go happen to you and you go dey blame village people

helpishere:
You nailed the sinparty crew to the road. She did not even tell us what repairs she did before and after the overheating. Did she take it to kingreign in Abuja�when it happened? Cars45 are here to stay and they are the bold and the fearless. These town criers buys 20w50 oils and they never bothered to find out the damage their igmorance has caused. Will all those guys buy these cars as is?

Car is in abuja. I've changed the throttle sensor twice before.

Scammer:
I have a 2016 Avalon limited which was flooded in texas, Coming to lagos soon.
It's a non Starter.

Which competent Auto engineer here Is competent enough to take on this repair Project.
It wasn't heavily submerged.

I've heard names of engineers here like gazuz, mayor and co.

I know labor won't be cheap, but i'm ready if the price is quite reasonable.

Scammer:
I never said the car is going to the east.
I live in Lagos.
I am not paying duty on this car, so i am not shipping it to Lagos, I am shipping it to Benin, Popularly known as Cotonou, I see most people don't know Benin is the country and Cotonou is just a city.
Car will come through the land border to Lagos.
Understand now?

Evaluation stage(stop and think)
Since we have been able to infer that it is due to a bad input signal issue ,we should go to through the route of low level electrical testing of signal to confirm all our available signal

chukel:
did you actually read this before posting. You just made a caricature of your self. I numbered your goofs. 1. What is Internet meant for and why is ur oga even advertising his feat here on the Internet. The number 1 bolded shows you were sent.
2. Where will you read the principle of compression and engine vacuum if not on the Internet. You are really not smart.
3.you still referred us to the Internet to watch youtube. What are you even saying.
4. You finally exposed yourself. Like I said earlier, you are not smart.
If you noticed along the line, poster said misfire was intermittent. He said loss of compression is responsible for misfire. Is loss of compression intermittent too? Meanwhile, the symptom that brought the car to the workshop was constant. Op, just listen to other people's input. No one is an island of knowledge. Overseas, when intermittent issues are brought to the technician, they try to simulate the problem or probable cause of the problem to produce the presenting symptom. Only cylinder 1 misfire will not make that car go into limp mode. I have an infiniti Qx4 2002 that has cylinder 1 misfire. I'm the only one that knows that cos I scanned it. You can only notice that subtly on idle.

torres89:
selfish Nigerians

no one willing to accept another man's view

most people kept shouting swirl valve

well did any of you bother to read on the principle of compression and engine vacuum

let's stop being parts changers

what kind of mechanic looks up the internet for solutions

that's a very dull mechanic and I will say that anywhere.

owing to the fact that similar symptoms on two different vehicles will never or might not point out the main culprit.

checking the net should be very last resort.

only check the net for rare vehicles with silly cases.. not this easy one

the main problem here is this :

most peeps don't even understand the principle of pressure or engine compression I doubt if most of you guys understand the working principle of an engine

that's why most peeps here have a pile of return jobs
u even see cars lined up in their garage for as long as a year.
just because of their shallow knowledge on diagnosis

as for those of u who recommend the mechanic work on the engine, please kindly Access YouTube and watch videos on MRO facilities, then u will know y local mechanics shouldn't open your engine

am tempted to mention so called big names here who have a very shallow knowledge on diagnosis and can't tackle complex issues .
but I won't
and no one should force me too

cause have being to their garage and studied their work ethics

iin fact let me just stop

honmusa is the best

honmusa:
[s]I still have hundreds and hundreds of case study to update later that will reveal different diagnoses technique used ,equipment used ,and the thought process . I am not leaving yet, this is just the first step, I can assure you that this thread will hit 1000 pages very soon and if you have problem with that I will advice you to get busy ,help somebody cos therein is your fulfilment and stop being the sign post for other people that are providing help ,be the help itself so that this world can be a better place .
in autologic we don't settle for status quo,we in always in pursuits of excellence and CSI (continuous service improvement) and we welcome novel idea aligned with our mission statement and our target market is people with like mindset .unfortunate excellence is not a typical Nigeria culture and so it will be difficult to get everyone acceptance around here include people like you .
Finally ,We are passionate about what we do cos that is where we get our fulfilment hence will be difficult for us to stop showcasing and flouting what is giving us the leverage[/s] .

honmusa:
@afangsoup I agree but show any evidence of where u have been able to make any positive impact in nairalander life .so far we have some evidence happy and satisfied nairalander that are happy with our services .
