Lol in his imagination, even the boy wey kill am no gree leave......

See the kind of person you all want to be taking advice from. Someone who can cut his own nose to spite your own face? grin he wants you to leave ehailing but will never tell you exactly what he left his own ehailing to be doing grin

Tinubu will reset the brains of all of you who prefer to choose ethnicity and tribalism over competency. 1 year down, 7 more to go.

Suck to say some folks actually don’t know when to stop. Those you should be wary most of are people that gives you advice without a rope. Someone here was once looking for a car, today he is a car owner, at least he started out from somewhere.

They keep hitting on vacation and my question to them, let them help us with a photo of them on the same vacation and as well what they earn monthly(dates back to 2023 at least). The number of people they have helped into their so called white collar space since they have been putting ehailing drivers down.

Obviously not saying ehailing is the best thing after Jagaban, but come off the st*pid jokes and needless high horse. Nah here I see where person deh real take Panadol for another person headache. Stay on white collar, yet eyes no gree comot go black collar. They can’t even help their sibling to get the so called white collar job 😂

Crazy country where someone that can earn 700 plus in the midst of this sufferation is been put down to nothing and you wonder why our youths give into fraud. Omo nah to go start yahoo like this. My eyes don see shege 🤒

The bolded above is exactly what i was against that caused everybody here to band together and attack me but slow and steady everybody mind go soon touch ground.

I still dey around. When body calm down brain go come up.

You guys should focus on the e-hailing aspect of my conversation and leave real estate and property acquisition convo alone, It's a topic for property section.

Everyone has their believes and ideologies about how they view life.

so like i always say,to each their own.

Simple.

This is a thread for e hailing and those seeking information concerning it. There are investment and property sections where other discussions can take place.

See how the thread sprang to life because it wasn't about discussions on ehailing, yet they are happy and jubilant that the thread isn't dead undecided

After today it goes back to status quo, till the next discussion about lands and 2nd - 4th streams of income grin

Githronics has always been here steady. If I was to bank on anybody making something of this hustle in a little time from this thread I'd surely have put my money on him. Him owning his vehicle by now is what I expected (to the shame of the troll who called him out stylishly) wink

Make una continue using this thread for purposes of which it wasn't intended for and jubilating of its still 'being alive' just to shut me up grin

I usually purchase tokunbo.

I suspect my transmission side mounts, I can hear some faint thump when I brake or the car downshifts. This car was bought new in Nigeria, and none of the mounts except the top one was bad which I've changed. I'll check the bottom tranny mount tomorrow. Also, the engine hasn't been opened before, neither is the gear. As for the throttle body, It doesn't throw any code and car moves well, so i doubt. The IACV is on the throttle body right?

Thank you so much for your time.

Yes it's somewhere on there.

I forgot to add, my Belt tensioner is loose. The Hole where the knot is supposed to go is stripped. I'm scared of these guys removing the engine, because that's the only way they can retread it.

Could that also contribute to the vibration?

I think I will check the throttle body again for the IACV and clean it, I will also check the lower mounts.

I'm not so sure about the harmonic balancer.

At the bolded above concerning your tensioner, I doubt its issues will contribute as much vibration as having each of the other 4 options I listed above.

Harmonic balancer issues can arise if you've ever had a timing chain work done in the past.

Engine mounts have China and tokumbo. Using China mounts in strategic locations will always give vibrations. Use proper original mounts always to eliminate this. The mounts that cause vibrations on idle are mostly the engine side ones, the mounts that cause thumps on gear changes are mostly the transmission side ones.

If your throttle body is electronic I'd advise you just replace it. Especially if you're sure of all other options being ticked off.

repair the stripped tensioner soon to avoid getting broken bolts along your other serpentine belt driven components

Thanks Bro. Mine is even more evident because for a large Sedan, my car uses a 2.0L engine.

Oga your vibrations can come from either one of the following 4 places in scale of most recurrent

1. Bad engine mounts

2. Bad IACV

3. Bad solenoid that directs vacuum to the associated engine mount that is designed to reduce vibration

4. Bad harmonic balancer timing in your engine sump

Check which it is and fix

I've always wondered how a 2.4l engine will perform on such big car as the crosstour. Can that engine actually move that car well? Abi the thing go de run like pregnant woman?

The Honda k24 has 2 basic versions. The usual ones with 160-170HP (A1, A3, A4, A8) and the souped up ones like those used in acura TLX and Civic SI (A2, A6, Z series) with from 190 to 210HP.

The crosstour uses a high output version of the latter variants of k24 engines wink so it is definitely no slouch on the road.

For Good roads and small family

Fuel efficient car = City, civic

For BAD roads and small family
Powerful car = pilot, mdx, crosstour, zdx
Fuel efficient car = crv, crosstour(4cyl),

Papaya and carrot soaps are different from skin whitening. Whitening is like taking off a layer of the skin and the after effect is crazy

That Papaya soap you wrote about up there is actually a bleaching soap. It's the same thing as skin whitening. Same effect different methods.

I get… All brands can’t be same. We have different skins, you just have to understand what works for you. For some it’s just Lux soap and adi agbon that will do the magic for them. I have Dove and Nivea I have to throw away. Those things doesn’t work for my skin. Tho a friend bought one from South Africa and you can tell we deh suffer. I was in a party with a friend that came from the state some time ago, she gulped the wine in front of us and that was her last. The taste just doesn’t match with what she is use too. Wetin concern us, bring more bottles, low quality don master us. Take a look at yogurt that used to be tick, kinda watery today.

Mayb you are from Congo DC… just avoid women things and again, did you say your sis? Like sister 😂 come off it 😂

Yes my little sis. At her house in their bath I saw it there. The smell alone I fall in love. Papaya. I will never forget. Its the first and last time I witnessed what they call bleaching. It was mistakenly because I didn't know. Just 2 weeks oga my face begin peel

Same Papaya that works well for your own skin? shocked me highest vaseline or pears cocoa I use, most times I don't. For soap it's all those Eva variations I like using. Before it was imperial lather.

Lol 😂 when I don’t intend to become Akala. Papaya and carrot soaps are different from skin whitening. Whitening is like taking off a layer of the skin and the after effect is crazy… same tin I always say about the hustle, if one take two weeks break and check his health, he will obviously see the difference. Nah target nah em be the main thing sha 😂 I never really know the damage sun does the body, until I start driving. Even if you are inside, as long as the ultraviolet is getting to you, it will still hurt the skin.

I dont know about that carrot oh, but you see that PAPAYA soap? Na pure confirm sweet smelling acid be that angry

I travelled to visit my younger sis a few years go, I stayed at her home and used their bathroom and because I didn't bring/buy my own soap I decided to use the one I saw there.

It was this Papaya soap, sweet smelling and orange color then as you use it it crumbles into small small cubes.

I only used it for a week and i started feeling uncomfortable prickly pains in my face and neck, by the second wee my face started to peel before I complained to my sis and she told me it was the Papaya soap that was causing it.

Since that day . . . Even for me use woman soap again by mistake? shocked

I'm confused.

Note this is a 2.0L engine.. Not 2.4l

Use mobil 2000 5w30 black cover. It will be okay for you.

Don't use useless engine oil or remove yiur thermostat oh, if not your engine is gone.

That your engine is costlier than the 2.4 or 3.5ltr types. It's a unicorn and very expensive to replace.

My Accord 2007 keep leaking power steering oil. If i replace, it leaks oil under 10km driving. Please what is the solution? Also what is the alternative readily available steering fluid to use where the honda recommended one is not available? The manual says one can use any other fluid temporarily, but not gear oil

Go to oyingbo and buy it there. E full

Use that red atf only temporarily anything more than say 3000 miles and you will definitely start having leaking seals like you are having now.
