Guys if you know you can't do cng get a 1.5L engine type of car, CNG cylinders occupy significant trunk space, making them unsuitable for families or transporting large items,Converted vehicles often experience reduced engine power and sluggish acceleration, particularly when driving uphill or carrying heavy loads, my own is nobody prays to do e hailing or public transportation for long if I board korope bus if it as cng most drivers complain and even passenger does not have enough space to sit conveniently. You can never see a private car owner thinking to convert is car to cng because you need to work on rewiring and program one or two in his/her vehicle. So please we should try to use car below 2.0L engine if it is Manuel is affordable you spend around 7m to buy shipping and clear a good without working on the body with low mileage
Thank you for this

It seems to me like you assume every woman is like your "mumsi", so you plan to treat women like you think your dad should have treated your mumsi.

My only hope is you marry a woman who does behave like your mumsi so your conclusion is justified. It would be very sad if you marry a goddess who is gold but treat her like she is dross and a demon, because you'd end up finishing yourself recklessly and your children will suffer.
wished and pray you don't have a bad woman or bad wife then you will relate with what the Op is saying. Not every Mother is a nice woman after all they say witches and demons dy

It took me many years to realize that my father is a NICE guy.

The typical romantic that spoils the wife

My dad told me that I should always listen to my mum no matter what.

That my mum is my 2nd God
And I quickly shut him down!!! Nonesense

My mum has been manipulating my dad for many years. And he keeps doing what she says.

After over 20 years
I notice that being nice to a woman is the worst thing you can ever do as a man.

My mother still complains about everything despite how many mountain my dad has to move to make her happy. She still complains

Today he had a mental breakdown and since I'm the only one that calls out my mum bullshit.
Other siblings will side my mother.
So He meet me and explained to me.

I felt so much pity for my dad.
And vowed never to make his mistake.
Never treat your wife like she Is GOLD
Never exalt your wife like she is a goddess
She will finish you recklessly..

I am very brutal with my mumsi
Amd she kinda respect me fir that
I dey call her bull crap on sight. Her manipulation no fit work for me

But na my popsi wey still dey do lover boy
Dey vex me. Mumsi just dey use am do shege.

Do not be like my father
My story is similar to yours . I don't even talk to her anymore ... she is a wicked soul

Nigeria is the headquarter of hipocrisy. Why will Tubaba go public and be giving unsolicited ratings when the guys were not in competition. If he doesn't want response, he should've used wisdom without comparison. The fact that some people may not answer doesn't mean, every one can keep quiet. Nigerians like to oppress and suppress.
You wrote beautiful nonsense . So Tuface is no longer human anymore to give his own opinion about something but its you and your kinds that has their own opinion and can give it out. As you get opinion make you know say other people get opinion too.. kid

I no go advice you after this. My time is money.....


Now when changing oil make sure,I repeat make sure you gauge the oil very well. Make sure the car is parked on level ground.. this will avoid of filling the engine with too much oil. Too much oil will damage the engine easily....

A mechanic in my present just basically pour the whole inside the engine without gauging the oil. You are supposed to pour a little by little and gauge it. Thank God I was there otherwise that engine would have been toast...

Also make sure oil filter are checked and are of good quality. Fake oil filter can get especially paper filters can get tourn up and wrapped inside the engine..

I no fit dey advice after this my brother.. you are on ur own today. I will Just go dey look u na
thank you

Please I want to ask, since I will be changing my oil regularly, is it possible and easy to just be changing the oil by myself than always calling on mechanics to do the oil change for me

Some have been going on like that for a very long time, as far they didn't open it and it didn't do overheat and you didn't allow the oil to dry off it can still serve for a very long time.
But how many weeks adter service did you drive before you started noticing this oil shortage?
It matters a lot ooo, like i said before only very few engines don't short oil after few weeks of service especially if you are using them on ehailing.
But just be prepared for anything sha, because I don't know how serious the oil shortage is.
I drove for 2weeks daily before the oil shorten

cyif2003:
how long do u drive it before u notice this? Like how many km?
I drove for like 2weeks daily before noticing the drop in oil while using semi synthetic 5w30 mobil .
I will do another oil change to another oil specification and check if it happens. Someone suggested 5w40. I will try that next

Gentlelife50:
If you're sure you bought original oil don't bother yourself Bro, Toyotas are notorious for oil shortages in fact almost every engine will start shorting oil after a long usage.
If it's a car you're using for ehailing it's likely to happen after 2 or 3 weeks, it's a used car not brand new only very few cars survive this.
But then always make sure you are servicing the car promptly, don't be listening to those that will tell you one oil must last you two months or more, this is Nigeria.
A lor of things comes into play.

If you go and ring that engine there is 50/50 chances there will be stories, after you might have spent huge amounts of money.

The best thing is to go to market with a very good mechanic that is experienced with engines, take note experienced with engines so you will get a good replacement if you don't want to be using it like that.

Or you keep using it like that, but make sure you always check the oil level every now and then, since you're using it for ehailing.
Many thanks for your input. If I decide to be using it like that and just topping oil and changing oil regularly, won't the engine at some point start smoking and eventually die off

Don't you dare touch 20w 50...unless you wanna toast that engine. 5w 40 is what you wanna try out next, corolla vvti system is not for 20w 50...unless say ur engine don go kpatakpata.

20w - how quickly ur oil flows and lubricates when engine is cold... 20 is THICK, 5w lubricates fast....

40 or 50 (the second number) - how thick it is when engine/oil is hot... Since ur engine is shorting oil, thin oil(30) is getting combusted due to weak rings.... So if ur shorting is not bad bad, 5w 40 is ur next bet... I made that costly mistake with my muscle and eod, research b4 using any oil type, otherwise you'll accelerate ur problem real fast... I suggested visco 2000... 20w 50 to my guy who complained about oil shorts, corolla too... He was happy and thanked me, the problem he faced a year later cost him 300k...but only becus of wrong diagnosis, due to how complex the problem was at the time, na me still help am detect the problem, a 30k naira fix... And na thick oil damage that component. So you fit try am oh, it's ur choice, make an informed one. Don't rush to ring the engine yet, unless you have a REALLLYYYY sure mechanic who knows his onions. Keep managing it till it starts smoking real good.

5w 40 oil next... Use am, give feedback...if no improvement b4 you try 20w 50.
Sorry this 5w40 what brand should I get and is it fully synthetic I should get ?

Nairamotive:
I had same experience.
Even if you change oil now, it won't solve the issue.
It's the rings, Toyota cars doesn't have to smoke before you know it's rings. There is already a gap in the rings. It only start to smoke if the gap becomes bigger, by then, fuel consumption would have increased.

Go to the market with your mechanic tell him to buy original rings , because there's fake too that doesn't last - usually fails within 6 months.

Change to Total 20w 50 best for Nigeria weather. Ensure you change it every 3000-4000km. The rings will last even up to 4-5 years.
Thanks do you have a mechanic in Lagos that knows about how to change the rings? Kindly chat me on whatsapp please 0 80 3 9 61 0113. I will be expecting your chat in anticipation

This case is normal…. I travelled to Abuja on a business trip and asked my girlfriend to help hold my HOUSE KEY …

A friend of mine who was transferred from Lagos to Asaba asked me if he could stay in my house and I said he could collect my key from my girlfriend…

I realized later that my friend was lashing my girlfriend in my own house 😳…..

Case 2 …. I had one girl that wasn’t my serious girl my friend asked if he could toast my girl.. I said yes because we were not serious about our relationship….
I gently walked away into my room so he could make his moves… When I walked back into my living room less than 5 minutes later my friend was lashing this girl in my palor 😳😳😳
Na wa. Isn't it ironic how its far much easier to lash another man's so called girl or wife than to lash a actually single girl with no man or husband. This is scary

Because I am using someone else's details to drive for now till they reopen my account and its the persons bank details thats on the Bolt app

Hello Bolt blocked my account early last year and all efforts to request for reopening via mails has not worked.
I want to ask if its possible to visit their Office and request for unblocking ? Will it work . Although I was the one who told them to deactivate my account when they were not willing to unblock me.
