Don't mind the people laughing at you here most of them don't know nothing outside d internet.
Look around your local area and dealers.
You will be surprised at cars you can get.
The country is very Hard right now people are selling their cars at give away prices just to feed.
This is actually the best time to buy Nigeria used vehicles at a very low price.

U make alot of sense brother.
@OP do not be discouraged. A guy in my office just got a clean Mitsubishi Lancer for 250k.
Engine and gear in perfect condition. Interior too was clean. Rug don stain bt dash board was perfect. Body don chop dents tho... Dts d only thing he will be working on. So dont be discouraged. If dts wat U have, God can direct you to a place U will get a good vehicle....

9icetoo:
Will read up on this.

Very good idea. Because most components in recent cars r controlled via PWM. ECU uses PWM to even control alternator charging in the EOD...

Billiebaba:
Injectors are not pulse width modulated, they are more like mechanical switches like that of relays.

Lwkmd. Like seriously? Bros and U dey talk dis thing confidently o...

tugrow:
yeah that is just it , it really affecting me now , all through the holiday i was using our company car and now that we have resume , i dont access the car again all the time.. so it really frustrating

Sorry about the ordeal. I want to believe you should have reached a conclusion on the issue pending saturday...

Are you talking about the reigning King of lexus

You this my brother just like trouble shaaa. We dont have any king of lexus on NL na do we? We suppose install one person as King sef...

nurey:
That's why I have someone like you as my battle field cordinator, I will just push the war to you Lobatan

Dts why have U as my battle shield wen d attacks start to come... Na U go use body collect am

rationalmind:
Yeah, though lack of communication can be frustrating especially for those of us with one vehicle

I swear bro... I know how it feels mehn. Effective Communication with the customer is everything

mejai:
After reading this Engrish.... Migraine dey worry me.

Lwkmd.... Chai bros
Panadol dey na

This whole than na small ish

Smartchoiice:
Now this is what I have been expecting... Autologic you must render your side of the story and the breakdown of the costs that made up the 325,000 Naira... We are waiting for you.

Diportivo thebigkendo readonee35l nurey legalwealth

Are you calling these ones to come and settle or to cause more wahala?

nurey:
Some of the zafira cars have been playing that route before I bought my sienna and they are still in good shape even better looking than my car not surprised it's an highway devoid of mad okada riders, crazy Keke owners and devilish vanagon drivers.

I can vouch for Opel as a good car anyday anytime, I have had encounter with it in the north too so F**k Toyota

The toyota fan boys will not be happy with this o. Esp one like dt that can kill because of toyota/lexus

Lexusgs430:
Any tokunbo vehicle wey turn left, enter 9ja...... Nah burial ground e do mistake enter so........

Choi.... Wahala dey o...
Bt dem dey survive small na

Lexusgs430:
You make a partial point, but the vehicle too had longevity potentials, hence it's widespread use.

It also won many awards..... But adding the 9ja factor, the car's fortunes go just spoil........

This one burst my bele o

soilessfarms:
Which engine capacity is better to buy for the zafira if somebody wants to use it for transportation biz? They have 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.2 engines

Any thoughts on that?

For the zafira, considering its size and number of people it would carry i would suggest you get the 2.2... so U get as much power as possible.

Mrford:
Say your story let's hear. Remember no be who first call police de win case.

Lol.... Abi na.... I have a feeling the OP doesn't really have a case against Autologic. Blood just dey hot as usual first thing customers want to do is tarnish a service providers image online...


@OP we still dey wait your side of the story o.

bigiyaro:
I noticed that Nigerian regions have cars that are popular in each region, in jos and bauchi Opel vectra , Sharon and vento are the most popular hence the parts and machnics are always available, so just check for the most dominant vehicle for ur kind of transport business, just like corrolla to uber

The opel is an amazing car.
Very strong. Good fuel economy and they are fast... Stable on high speed too.
If there is adequate support, available parts and capable Mechanics in your area, its a great choice. However like bigiyaro mentioned, do a survey of the vehicle thats mostly used in your area. That wld give U an idea of the parts and expertise you can access....

However on a good day tho, that opel na better motor forget

GAZZUZZ:
This will be an interesting topic that's why I moved your comment here.

Intectors operate on pulse, short and long pulses, dropping the voltage would it distort the spray pattern ? Let's discuss.

Thegiftedone more pics please.

Cc nurey, diportivo, inception, motorguru, smartchoiices, chukel, Kashif, JohnAbraham, autologic, timifakay, oluwaseunla.

Add more as you remember

Voltage drop would distort spray pattern since the voltage will drop meaning the current ramp/current build up in the coil will be weak thereby creating a weak magnetic field. Which in turn will result in the pintle not lifting as it should. Eventually spray pattern will be distorted.


My 2 cents

Would have been really nice to check and compare the voltae and current rampnof hoth circuits on a scope ooo....

Na why this place come quiet like this na?

EngRichie:
Nice writeup.
But from deeper research, it all depends on the car and the extent to which fuel economy is affected.
It also depends on where fuel economy is affected. At low end or high end. Check how the cat affects low end torque and scavenging.
Again, some cars use after cat sensors for fuel adjustment. It depends on the extent to which it does that. Some up to 10%, some 30%.
Regards.

All depending on the design and what the engineers wanted to achieve. One size never fits all.

Good day

Sleekteddy:
Yes,more like it s forcing self to speed

Ok. The problem is most likely electrical. In the wiring or sensor failing. Issue needs to be properly diagnosed to narrow down d fault

Sleekteddy:
The transmission issue. D5 started blinking after about 10mins drive

Do you experience any driveability issues before and after the blinking?

Sleekteddy:
2005 mdx
D5 started blinking and the check engine light came on.I scanned and got the follow

P0430
Generic
Catalyst system efficiency below threshold bank 2
P0420
Generic
Catalyst system efficiency below threshold bank 1
P0706
Generic
Transmission range sensor A circuit range/performance

DTC

Your problem lies in the above boldened.

Gone through it. Quite a lot of codes.
So kindly narrow it down, what's your complaint? What problem do you need resolved?

seanfer:
Good morning. Please what can make fuel gauge to be giving wrong reading. Sometimes when I have more than half tank fuel, and drive for some minutes the gauge will show that I am having 1/4 tank. If I park for some time and start driving again it will go back to the normal gauge of 1/2 tank. Please what can be the cause so that I can tell my Mechanic what to do. Car is 06 Camry.

Morning chief. possible causes could be
1. faulty fuel sender
2. short circuit or open circuit in wiring from sender to Instrument cluster
3. faulty instrument cluster...

but usually its either 1 or 2

Mrford:
I spoke to him some days ago.

Alright chief

funkymeky:
Please do you know any one he has worked for ?

Sorry I dont. But he is a friend. Was only making a suggestion. If you're not satisfied you ca find someone else to avoid stories.

Good morning

funkymeky:
Please who knows of good auto shop where i can service my lexus es 350 in port harcourt and a good ac technician will be very much appreciated. I have searching for days now

MrFord.... Where are you o?

leosag:
Hi everyone, i knew i would find some help
here. My toyota matrix ECU was stolen and all
effort to replace it is not working, i've tried
4ECU but dey are not working with it
Here are some of the car details:

2006 TOYOTA MATRIX XR
VIN: 2T1LR32E23C134323
SEDAN 4 DR
FOUR WHEEL DRIVE

The car is an automatic..

Guys pls do kindly help my bro here... How can we source the right ECU for him pls...

suzzyrims:
That is what I was told by the mechanic, he opened the bonnet,asked one of his boys to start the car and he observed for a while. He then concluded it' s nothing much to worry about,that it's engine seat.

If that be the case then its a good news. Thank God its no overheating issue

Xtianvic:
thanks a lot
