Abeg o!
I needed help, my far right plug is not working. I tot it's plug issue, then the mechanic change the coil to confirm. None work. Other three are working and bringing light.

I'm giving the option of changing my ECU or brain buss. We use machine, no error was detected.

I need Help.
My car is Nissan Tiida 2007.
Thanks

The likely cause is a damaged Cylinder head

And that's the real problem with marriages today. I think many are just business deals which leaves a soulless marriage, with divorce inevitable.

Boss what else again, you can't love in peace without money. No relationship with commitment or working on future plans together.... All is all about what a man Carry's and how presentable the woman is!!!

You just nail my thought about marriage on the head. Most successful men don't get a woman to tie Dem down. It is just business as usual ... Sex get pregnant and I take responsibilities..

Lobatan.

WE'RE BAAAACKKK... sorta..

I sent a message a while back ma'am . To discus an idea ma. Please just hear me out and if you don't want anything to do with the idea I will gladly never bother you again

Babadee1900:
Boss come back to the hustle when the lockdown eases of finally. At this present time those of driving are just doing it to keep body and soul together and to also have something to fall back to should SanwoEko decide to issue another lockdown come next week.

Since you own your car and have a place to stay in Lagos, why not! Come drive to earn some money baba.

As for that guy with $270k deal. The gist is that he is the client owner, he stays with his friend inside my estate. Out of the 270k, they have successfully collected $150k using his friends mailing address. The night before he requested my ride, the woman was to send 20k via cash mailing to his friend address but he told his client to send 17k and send the remain 3k to his Blockchain wallet. Na wetin cause wahala be that.

Shebi if I knew that’s what’s up I for decline the request. It wasn’t until he entered the car and he said bro pls drive fast and lock the doors don’t stop for anybody that’s when I knew trouble is imminent.

I was still driving within the estate, even stopped to collect face mask from my security guy when I saw one rx330 from the mirror driving with mad speed towards me. I told my rider and he said that’s his friend that he must not overtake me and I should do everything possible to drive him to the nearest police station because he knows what that guy his capable of.

I come reason am say, EOD/RX330 on LekkiEpe Exp how possible for this guy not to overtake me and the nearest police station that I can think of is the one before Ajah bridge coming from Sangotedo.

My only chance is blocking is his path so he won’t be able to overtake me, I don’t know that money can make someone so desperate like the guy behind the RX wheel. He closed up to me and hit me hard from behind (Right side) causing me to lose control of the car for a split second as my car was going to do a 180 turn anti-clockwise due to the hit, I quickly regained control of the car but the nigga don over take me.

Will continue later. Request don come

Abeg bro my doctor just tell me say the only medicine for my sickness now, na make you finish the story abeg finish am make water no enter wrong place

peeps4u:
Not very many people talk about Australia and New Zealand. Too much focus on Canada and USA

That is because na stress to process and big money

Felicity0001:
Bro ur boy loyal ooh... Me no go any where today as yesterday was like my birthday (my lucky day) I netted about 7k+ on uber, then about 9k+ on bolt then d bomb was an offline trip my elder bro linked me up with just from lekki to falomo and back to lekki ph1 again I was paid 15k I couldn't believe my eyes. Another off trip rhis morning from my area Abule Egba to Ajao estate to n fro the Bros run me 4k.

I run like 15k to my woman for herself n Issue, do small tin for some of my guys base on as things rough at d moment. I don reserve like 10k for my madam rental.

Felicity0001:
My brother dont mind them ooh just put your heads up and focus on your plan. Shoe maker no dey shame why because thats what put food on his table.

The truth is human beings are wicked, can u imagine some haters on this platform reported one of here to the mod and they guy was ban for a year, this sb that shares his business secrets and archive of knowledge and experience, a law abiding citizen and even helping humanity along side. Many people have benefited from his business acumen and a lot are now even buying his recommended car for this hustle. Just because of jealousy they reported the guy and mu mu seyun way no get sense use his hand ban his own customer who is a registered member for more than 10yrs.

And one f00lish one was bold enough to say he brought sanity to the forum as if NL Uber thread is his bedroom. Shame on you haters, it doesnt matter if this is a faceless forum but you know yourselves. Shame on you all haters!!!

Bro that is human for you... I wonder what they have gained now.... Just like that one person in class that act as if na him better pass for but last last na Dem dull pass...

Abeg make I no talk much before them start to they reason my mata now say am a baby business man ..

Felicity how e be now?

Alero3Arubi:
You just won a spot in me heart.
That's the way to go.
Also try to save ooo, if bad market enter you need to cut out.

Some men can frustrate the holiness outta you, wisdom is all we need when it comes to the matter of the heart.

Learn to talk less and listen more... Friends ain't going to help, bcuz the advise they dish out they can't follow it. Most of them are facing more horror but they will keep theirs and advise you so yhu can be a scape goat.

Madam prayers and patience and perseverance all the way...
Love you

Lol... I thought you were promoting them before?

Uber don knack this one Akpako

Even I noticed of recent that you have been looking like a human being since this Lockdown. Your cheeks are now buffy. Unlike before when you always looked like a Lizard.

That means you have been suffering all these while and claiming luxury driver up and down.

Luxury driver ko, Basic Driver ni

Hmmmmmmm sincerely,Dating a big girl is not the issue but with time won’t the guy feel inferior as time goes by?my little experience makes me feel like most guys feel less of a man when the lady is trying to call the shots herself without waiting for any man..
At a point ,the guys start feeling like you are hard to please whereas you are just trying to live your life to suit yourself ..All in all,the key word is humility and it takes the grace of God!!

Sure if the man is either lazy ass or simply put low self esteem covidiot....

Jim once told me of his experience with a lady of such and how he messed up thinking the babe was using her wealth to oppress him..
But the bitter truth out it all is that this babe wanted him to grow and be the man, but my friend was too dumb to see it and the opportunity never walks in again

Anyone with experience on Benz B200 (2008) Turbo? Planning to get one. Is it advisable?

It depends on what you want it for? But based stats it is highly reliable. Easy handling and excellent economy from my perspective.

Bro calm down now, my guy never land and truth be told that is the law of karma... you can't continue in sins and expect the grace of God to abound.

ogmask:
Thanks alot. The filter was cleaned but not changed. I will do as advised brother.

You are always welcome sir

ogmask:
Hello brother,
I need advise on my 2007 ford explorer. water entered the gearbox thru the coolant in the radiator. the gear oil and radiator were replaced but it became worse off for it. sometimes i will engage but it wont respond till after some seconds. sometimes it responds very aggressively and shakes the car badly. sometimes it vibrates before shifting to gear 2. sometimes it makes a rubbing noise similar to that of a bad axle. and sometimes it cant climb a hill from rest. do you think i need another gear box?
thx

Good day sir, please scan the the transmission to know if an error code comes up?
But from your narration I can conclude that the coolant entered into your tranny and with that you are having buildup in your tranny, check the sensors and the valve and filter for blockage.

Don't forget to scan sir.

Synthetic Blend Oil
These have a dose of synthetic oil mixed organic oil, and overall are formulated to provide protection for somewhat heavier loads and high temperatures. They are less volatile like our filling station measured oil, so they evaporate far less and increases fuel economy.
Examples of Synthetic Blend oil 5W-20 | 5W-30 | 10W-30 | 10W-40

Higher-Mileage Oil
Once you have a car with mileage more than 75,000 miles on Odometer, these oils are recommended for these vehicles. The higher-mileage oils are formulated with seal conditioners that flow into the pores of the seals to restore their shape and increase the flexibility. These oils have high viscosity, they seal piston-to-cylinder clearance better and won’t squeeze out as readily from the larger engine bearing clearance. They may also come with high dose of antiwear additives to try to slow the wear process.
The best high-Mileage for 2020
• Castrol 06470 GTX (Fights Sludge & Prevents Wear & Tear) ...
• Royal Purple 11744 HMX (Excellent for Cold Temperatures) ...
• Amazon Basics AM53BH3Q (Value for Money) ...
• Valvoline 782482 10W-40 (Prevents Your Seals from Leaking) ...
• Mobil 1 45000 5W-30 (Premium Grade Oil for Cold Temperatures)

Oil Additives
Use of additives is another approach to improving and maintaining oil performance. High engine temperature combined with moisture, combustion byproducts, rust, corrosion, engine-wear particles and oxygen to produce sludge and vanish. Additives do not only provides good lubrication but also helps to reduces sludge and vanish and any damage from their formation.
Categories of key Additives And Importance
• Viscosity-Index Improver – reduces the oil’s tendency to thin with increasing temperature
• Detergent – To remove some deposits, primarily solids. But the main purpose is to keep the surfaces clean by inhabiting the formation of high-temperature deposits, rust, and corrosion.
• Dispersants – Disperse solid particles, keeping them in solution, so they don’t come together to form sludge, varnish, and acids.
• Antiwear Agent – They protect the metal surfaces; when lubricating films breaks down, the antiwear protect the surface.
• Frictional Modifiers - They reduce engine friction and so can improve fuel economy.
• Pour-Point Depressant – Just because the 0 degree F viscosity rating is low doesn’t mean the oil will flow readily at low temperatures. Oil contains wax particles that can congeal and reduces flow, so these additives are used to prevent it.
• Antioxidants – They are needed to prevent oxidation (and Therefore Thickening) of oil.
• Foam Inhibitors – The crankshaft whipping through the oil in the pan causes foaming. Oil foam is not as effective a lubricant as a full-liquid stream, so the inhibitors are used to cause the foam bubbles to collapse.
• Rust/Corrosion Inhibitors – Protects metal parts from acids and moisture.

Do not forget to purchase the right and recommended oil for your cars

LMAO!

@ Sharp: Yes, I'm Nigerian, and have been considering setting up a fully equipped Diagnostic, Service and Performance Autocentre in Lagos or Abuja. The issues are getting the right person to run the place, someone who's as passionate about the Automobile as I am, as I don't live in Nigeria. If I did set up though, I would be spending the winter season in Nigeria, returning to the UK for summer.

Decisions, decisions.

Can I have a private chat with you

yinkaoke:
They did the programing n it was with that, that the car moved. The car moved well on the day it was fixed for they were working on d body only for the 3rd day when it was started it started dragging on drive.
U know when u put a car in drive it most time will propel it self even before u accelerate but this one even with acceleration it's drags.

Did they try to relearn the brain box with the the engine? You have to sync the brain box with the car to learn all the other values from other sensors..

What is wrong here is prolly your TCM and the new brain box not communicating.

B-Automobile Nigeria Limited

Some questions:

1) What's the engine capacity of your car?
2) What's the engine configuration of your car - I4 or V6?
3) Where was the initial ECU programming done?
4) Is your car auto or manual?

It may help, if you are able to get the original transpondered key to match any ECU you obtain for fitment. Some ECU's are not easy to programme, some are impossible. Posting the ECU part number, as well as your VIN could be helpful.

Do you know what State your car was originally sold in in the US?

Post your VIN and numbers on the ECU tried let me work on that

Or chat me up ma

@blackbishop please help from ur wealth of experience, we changed d brain box of a Corolla 2006 but d car did not start, just rolling and d only brain box that started the car, when you put d car in drive it drags when u accelerate. Difficult to move but moves well in reverse.
Please what do u think may be d problem? It wasn't like this with d original brain box that came with d vehicle that got lost.

We v tried about 6 different brain box

Please follow the link for more on the specifications of engine oil recommended for your vehicle..

How To Make The Right Choice Of Engine Oil For Your Car

There are many choices when it comes to picking the appropriate oil for your car’s engine. We are going to educate and guide you to break down your choices to help you in the quest to change your oil.

Identifying The Right Choice Of Oil For Your Vehicle

All car’s owner’s manual will list the recommended oil weight, but for most cars in Nigeria the best way to identify the oil specification for your car is to check the top oil cover of your vehicle for the specification.


There are two character service designation on the container of each engine oil.
There are APIU and SAE
The API – The American Petroleum Institute latest service standard is SL. SL refers to group of laboratory and engine tests, including the latest series for control of high-temperature deposits.
SAE - The Society of Automotive Engineers provides a number of global standards in many fields including cars and trucks, petroleum, aerospace and others. SAE assures that a key automotive item – oil – is standard across the globe.
These are the labels you’ll find on every Engine oil Container of reputable motor oil.
The API tells you if the oil meets the current SL service rating (C for diesel engines).
The SAE provides the Viscosity number and tells you if the oil has passed the energy conserving test.

Viscosity
Viscosity means a fluid’s resistance to flow. In motor oil, it’s rated at zero degrees Fahrenheit (Represented by the number preceding the “W” [for winter]) and at 212 degrees (represented by the second number in the viscosity designation).
Example 10W-40 When the engine is running, the second number (40) in 10W-40 tells you that the oil will stay thicker at high temperature than one with lower number like 30, 20. What’s really important is that you use the oil viscosity recommended for your car.
NOTED: Motor oil thins as it heats and thickens as it cools. Within reason, thicker oil generally seals better and maintains a better film of lubrication between moving parts.

Also, if the oil is too thick, the engine requires more energy to turn the crankshaft.

Types of Motor Oil
Premium Conventional Oil
This is the standard new car oil. All leading brand have different service level (SL) available in different viscosity, it come s in 5W-20 or 5W-30 oil, particularly for lower temperatures. With a 10W-30 oil as optional, particularly for higher ambient temperatures.
These 3 ratings cover just about every light-duty vehicle on the road. Even more important, though, is changing the oil and filter regularly at 4000miles/four (4) months interval is good practice.
The minimum is twice a year.

Full Synthetic Oil
The oil is made for high-tech engines, mostly Mercedes Benz which are mostly Full Synthetic and American cars. These oils has been passed through stringent tests (Indicated by their labelling), it means they have superior, longer lasting performance in all the critical areas, from viscosity index to protection against deposits. It flows better at low temperatures and maintain peak lubricity at high temperatures.
Apart from the fact these oils are expensive they do not meet most engine required features.

my camry 2001 4cylinder is giving me issue, i noticed that whenever am driving and the ac is on, the steering looked hard to turn if i want to enter corner area and vibrating but without ac its normal..............


whats the solution.................

Boss I will suggest you look at the pulley.
Prolly you compressor pulley is kind hooking.

But I will like a physical inspection

Kapilk:
Thanks alot. You have been helpful.

Always ready to help..

Kapilk:
Sir, the gear shift needs work according to the report. Then the only thing with the Engine is that it has Oil Sludge. Is that a serious problem?

The level of the sludge will determine the risk to the Engine.

Truthfully that price is too much for the mileage

Kapilk:
Thanks a lot for your swift response. The inspection is already done and that's where it was shown it needs brake pad and tie rod repairs. My major problem is the mileage. With a total mileage of 212000km, would you say the life span is still good?
Thanks

At that mileage did your mechanic run a scan on the vehicle?
At that mileage you need to assess the Engine so it has not been tampered with, in the sense of replacing the engine totally or partially or shorting oil?
What about the transmission
Brother at the mileage you need to be careful..
