Thank you so much for all your efforts, Calculation! I will get back to you as soon as we make a head way with the brain box. I believe that with this information that you have helped us to get, we shouldn't be too far from getting the right brain box for the car. I can't thank you enough! Have a great day.

I will be waiting for your feedback, and good luck in your search

Thank you so much for your response, Calculation! Please, find attached the engine pictures with and without the engine cover. Please, note that the pictures were taken at a time when the rewire was troubleshooting with an incompatible brain box. The air cleaner, some coils, etc were removed during the process. I can get the full engine pictures taken when I go to where the car is within the week, if these are inadequate for your assessment. Kindly point me to where I can locate the engine code and I will get and send it to you within the week. Have a great week.

I have seen the pictures posted. Your ECU number based on VIN provided before is 3910639716. Also similar picture of part number is circle and pointed by yellow arrow in the my picture posted in order to help you in your search. Good luck in your search for the part.

mrT:
Many thanks Calculation. I got a working brain box eventually.
However, upon scanning, it show error code P0013, i learnt this is Camshaft sensor. Can you kindly advice, is it repairable or i have to replace?

Am really happy that you are able to source the ECU for your vehicle, but on the issue of the code P0013 stated above, my own advice are
1. Since your ECU was vandalised and your car was not having such code ie not noticing problem with engine before vandalisation, clear the code, drive it and scan for code again. If code is not store, then it mean the problem was on donor car that use the ECU.
2. If code P0013 show up again then i will advice you to check the vvt actuator and its harness if okay. If it is okay and the P0013 is present then return ECU for replacement and try another ECU before seller grace period expire, but check that your side is okay

Thank you so much for your response, Calculation! The information that you provided relates well to the vehicle but the engine number is stated as G6CE2543645 on some of the papers like the ECMR from the police and as CT6CE2543645 on the customs papers. We could not locate the actual physical numbers/letters on the engine ourselves because it's all choked up.

I really appreciate your willingness to help out. I look forward to your response.

The engine number provided above is the engine number that came with the vehicle from factory during production, so if engine number on paper is correct ( based on assumption from me) that mean that the engine was changed at a time before your purchase. Let me see the picture of the engine of your own vehicle asap so that i will be sure the one in your vehicle is the same with the engine that came with the vehicle from factory. Also check very well at engine body or sticker on engine, if the engine code is the same with the engine code provided for you earlier, then the ECU number am going to give you will work.
Please sorry for late reply, it was my job that took my attention and cause delay. I will be waiting for your engine picture and reply on engine code

My 2 kobo on the issue is don`t buy the vehicle if you can`t use its diesel engine, because converting to petrol and automatic transmission will lead to complex issue involving money and other issue that will only surface as you find yourself in the middle of the conversion.
Exercise patience and save more to buy the petrol version.

mrT:
Do you sell this part or know who does pls. My part person said he dint have it.

SCAM ALERT
So ADEDEJI CHARLES ADEYEMO AKA KAKAIBUY IS A SCAMMER!!!

He sent my client bad paypal fund of $1600 in November 2016 after which the account was blocked by paypal for 180 days.

We kept asking paypal the particular fund that had issues and they never really pinpointed it to us which was why I kept calm and waited for the 180 days as I did not want to accuse him falsely.

At the end of the 180 days hold, the money was refunded back to him and he never even contacted me at all.

I was finally able to trace him down through my bank payments meanwhile my client had already taken the case to EfCC and made a case under fraud and obtaining by trick.

After I told him about this issue, he has refused to pay back the money coming with an excuse every time.

EFCC actually even gave him options to come with his lawyer and he couldnt
They then gave him an option to refund it but he also refused

He claims that since he is not in Nigeria, He is untouchable.

He is currently wanted by EFCC and his face, passport details and other contact will soon be published everywhere showing he is wanted.

Avoid dealing with him for your own good
His details are: +436602306454
also +36705369050
+36705336485 and many more

Cc kakakibuy.

An allegation of fraud was put against you with likely involvement of EFCC, but you still ignore and yet you want more people to patronize you.
Please defend yourself and proof otherwise if not many will conclude that your way of business is going with fraud and affect your potential customer. My 2 cent

If you post in cartalk section, I think you will get quick reply on it

Is there any known problem with the automatic gear box or is the manual gear better?

If am in your shoe, am going to go for manual because most of the comercial one on our road never complain on the gear even it may serve more than one or two engine at the end of the vehicle life. Automatic may look smooth to drive but the associated problem on gear may generate serious headache for you. My 2 cent on the matter

Can it go for 200K ? Also load the engine picture

GAZZUZZ:
I gave you a small assignment. What did you discover?

okay, l will arrange to carry out the finding as stated. Thanks

calculation:
Oga Gazzuzz, please I need your technical decision on this my matter.
I packed my vehicle at the end of the day without any issue and the alternator belt was removed for change. After the belt change, it refuse to start after cranking to the extent of running down the battery. Scanning was done on the vehicle because check engine light illuminate, but no code was reported by scanner and even after clearing code from scanner, the check engine was still on. My finding on the matter is that ECU was suspected to be bad, please help to suggest what could be the problem because am preparing to buy another ECU. Vehicle is Nissan primera 2000 model with 1.8L engine.

GAZZUZZ:
do not be in a hurry to buy another engine ecu.

4 things must be involved for a car to start.
1. A spark
2. Air fuel mixture
3. Compression.
4. All in the right order (timing)

Verify the presence or absence of these 4 elements

I try to crank the engine with scanner connected, it gave a sound of starting but the idle was not okay though throttle pedal was pressed and hold during that time. later after trying several time, scanner gave a code of crankshaft sensor which was changed and scanner used to clear code but the check engine light still refuse to clear and there was no more code even when engine was crank to start yet no code again and engine refuse to start.

Oga GAZZUZZ, am I still to assume the ECU is okay? Do you think crankshaft or camshaft sensor can be the root of the problem even when scanner is not throwing code to them as suspect? Please help me suggest my next line of action.

apology gini?

I will post some pictures which will also include his

his car is the first...check out the wiper and compare with the second pic that's of a normal lefthand drive taken off the net.

third pic is of a right hand drive and the 4th is of anoda converted ride taken off olx Nigeria

if u look at the way the normal lefthand and normal right hand wipers are aligned as factory spec,the oda 2 pictures are awkward

and dats the easiest way to know that its converted

its up to the buyer to decide if I'm to be believed or not.....and dis isn't to discredit the seller

iv also sold cars her "as-is" and the true state of the ride was disclosed....there's always a buyer anywhichway

I knew this guy saw something before dropping his coment earlier. Thanks for this info because seller on nairaland are not loyal
