Euro Accord is rebadged to be a TSX in the US. On the flip side, center console is Accord, but steering wheel has the Acura badge.
I honestly don't know what the fook this is.

I am tired of seeing the same set of cars every time on the first page of AUTOS, its getting to a disturbing level. Seun or Mod please lets have 2 Autos; Dealers and individual sellers, i open autos and what i see is 90% of the first page anytime of the day occupied by a particular dealer or the other. funny enough these are old threads of delivered goods that should have been archived. some of us just want to look for ready to go cars and buy, not go though tons of testimony / concluded deals.

I am tired of it,,,Mod, Seun Helep us please!

Welcome to nairaland.

You'll be surprised the way prices are put up as though the agents/middle men know the exact state of the car.

I'm used to hearing things like 'owner is travelling outside the country' ......'owner has 21 cars' .....'owner is hardly in the country'

'Car was used only on Tuesdays for Coldstone ice cream'.....

Then the more annoying excuse when you finally get to see a crappy car....'it's just to top gas...the ac is okay'......

HenriXI... I know what it means to be in your shoes, why did I undertake formal training to become an automotive technician?

I have always loved electronics, I have always loved cars, and I was not exactly comfortable with the way the technicians were handling the issues I was having with my cars.

I often had to educate them, and then I noticed that my background in IT was what they lacked, and cars were becoming more and more computerized, so I dived in.

I contacted you immediately via PM after my first post, to share with you privately the information that I ended up sharing publicly.

Those of us in the habit of ignoring PMs, please respond to PMs, they may be well-intentioned.

I am so grateful that you have found time to vindicate me and my approach.

I was also taught to try least invasive techniques first, and not most invasive techniques first.

Spend the least you can to solve an issue first, and not the most you can to solve an issue first!

Had you reached out to me, I would have saved you unnecessary expense.

But I am happy that it has ended well for you, and never forget this, always consult factory documentation!

Let me conclude by stating once again, thank you for saying it yourself that it was indeed an instrument cluster (combination meter) issue and not a transmission issue!

Thank you again for vindicating my position that you should have kept the other transmission and not pawned it away for next to nothing.


What many technicians fail to acknowledge is this, there are decision trees, and following those decision trees helps to point one in the direction of the actually faulty item, and that it should not be a matter of guesswork deciding what is faulty, but it should rather be a scientific and rational decision determined by either mathematics, electronics, hydraulics and sometimes mechanics, these value are not sentimental, they will remain what they are irrespective of skin color, tribe, or tongue.

Cheers!

Let me also extend a hand of fellowship to my very able brothers, Mayor2013 and and Autologic who were right on the mark with their diagnosis, and most respectfully request LUDATRAVELS to see how the matter was finally resolved given his position on the matters therein.

chccho:
I wish u many more years of futile efforts

tizteezy:
So, Cosplay still dey area...

Tuale sir!

chccho:
Why should i be, when am still making sales?

Alright Sir!!

chccho:
[s]Cosplay the so desperate,self ordained class captain, what happened to the rest of the VIN report ? U forgot to post those too?

Or u were dissapointed it wasnt as bad as u wished it was?

It will interest u to know that even after all your tireless and bitter criticisms on my Ads, i have still sold those same vehicles even with all your bad belle posts .. so who is making a big fool here? cos its definitely not me.

If i were in yoour shoes i will spend all this negative energy into creating my own car blog/site, so i can state the rules and dictate to users what and what not to advertise.

As far as Nairaland and seun are concerned u are just like those loser tenants that cant pay house rent but rather wish their landlords dead so they can either acquire the whole buildings or leave in their shitholes and throw tantrums...

Why should i even bother about posting VIN when ibhave u my houseboy to do it[/s]



Good Evening to you Sir.

Don't be too disappointed.

I'm glad you're successfully selling your vehicles. At least whoever visits this advert and the other flooded vehicle you tried to advertise will know what the true history is.

As for the other vehicle

You know I'm saving the best for last.

elshanAutos:
YES
But, I wasn’t done with the ad. Do you want to help me ?

gazmann:
Request Vin privately. I've highlighted what go wrong with Vin made public. We have talked about this before on this forum. Vin is sellers property

DelTel:
SOLD.

Sweet Sunday Sales.

olanshi:
Im very sure of that... No collision, no airbag damage as at the time of purchase from the auction..

GAZZUZZ:
quite the contrary, I have a client trying to narrow down a venza deal and what separates this sale from being concluded is a vin report.


At the highlighted you are in violation of rule 10, and I have activated rule 13.

olanshi:
No physical impact when it was purchased, it has flood history which has been treated appropriately..

AutoElectNG:
Noted with thanks.

I shouldn't have quoted that post.

He gave a restraining order and I wanted to be guided by it.

I should have made my point without quoting the post.

I had no intentions whatsoever of denigrating him.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

That was why I deleted his name so I do not appear to be contravening his restraining order...and since it is possible to quote and modify...I did but publicly acknowledged that the original author had not been been quoted word for word.

Any other meanings ascribed to the above was not intended.
