Update on my car with p0500 code. After replacing the VSS, no change I returned the former one. I tied my Abs sensor loosed wire. And kept using the car like that for the rest of Dec. I also changed one shaft head that was bad to the Abs type. I was on a trip last week and discovered that my steering was back to normal. Speedometer working, fuel gauge doing well. In short, everything back to normal. I scanned again and cleared the p0500 code. It never retunred since then. The Abs light too disappeared for some hours. But came back later. Till, now, no issue again. Car drives smoothly. Thanks to those who offered to help. Gazzuzz, remember we spoke on the phone. I didn't bother calling you as you told me cos of the festive season. Thanks too bro. |

How I wish others would understand your point! But, nevertheless, let whoever wants to go hybrid go. When the battery wahala starts or wiring issue, keep it to yourself. dru23: Unfortunately alot of you guys here on nairaland read, but fail to read without understanding.. You guys tend to read with either 1 eye or with two eyes close
The issue of mechanic came up with hybrid cars.Somone wanted to get my opinion on hybrid cars especially prius. I stated basically not in nice way coz am not here to please anyone , that it is not a good idea coz Nigerian mechanics are not skilled enough to work on them , and even if they are skill enough they are not too many of them to handle ..
It will not make sense for you to drive down from Ogun state to Lagos to look for an Hybrid mechanic.. That is not counterproductive at all .. There is a lot of cars petrol cars like Acura Mdx ,Ford cars, Volvo and some Japanese cars that local mechanics are still struggling to learn and fix ..mechanics in Nigeria are still learning work and most don't have the correct tools to do the job etc ..
Nigeria mechanics will you tell certain cars are good because that his the only cars they know how to fix and anything else is bad .. People bring in cars based on Nigerian mechanics skills on how to fix them etc . Some cars out there are actually good ,but not enough mechanic that know how to fix them , and you think I will advice someone to bring in hybrid cars...
There was an article years ago that I read how wealthy Nigerias will cargo their luxury cars overseas for regular maintenance check and fix..
In my past post I stated that USA mechanics are crazy too ,and even some car dealership mechanics are careless and they can mess up your car ..
I stated that when I got my Infiniti g25x , I took it to a white middle class to upper class mechanic shop neighborhood area .. I refuse to take my car to ghetto area shops ...
If any mechanic here is offended, it is because they lack confidence in themselves.. If you are good at your job you will ignore my comment and keep doing what you doing..
Most cars owners have trust issues with mechanics . And most will not leave their cars overnight at a mechanic shop..
Whether you like it or not I speak facts. Oya argue with your keyboard |

Oil dey your head. Good calculation! kanuisagoat: Bolt is extremely smart with this method of rating that uses an average of 40 trips. The model makes it very easy for your ratings to drop and very difficult to rise. I'll explain why.
Let's say your last 38 trips were smooth with 5 star ratings but rider 39 and rider 40 gave you 1 and 2 stars.
Your total rating is (5*38) + (1×1) + (2*1) which equals 193. This gives an average rating 4.83 when divided by 40.
Now this is where it gets interesting. Let's say your next 10 riders gave you 5 star each. What bolt will simply do is remove the first 10 5 stars you got and replace with this latest set of 5 stars.
Guess what? Your total rating is still 193 and your average will remain at 4.83. For you to experience any increase in rating, 39 riders must give you 5 stars. The 39th rider who gives you a 5 star will now push out the 1 star the previous rider 39 gave you.
Total rating will now be 197 calculated as (5*39) + (2×1) with an average of 4.92.
This explains why you'll see people complain that riders are giving them 5 stars but ratings don't improve. Its the bolt model and is designed to crawl when rising and to drop as fast as possible.
***I hope my explanation is clear, thats the best I was able to do. Ayam not a teacher.**** |

I read in the Punch today that another pilot was hacked to death at Badore, Ajah . I just wonder why some drivers are still risking their lives going to some bad spots. Even for daylight, I ve decided to stop going to some areas. I hope we all can apply this method too.
Bolt or uber doesn't care that much about us. So, no be by force to go on that trips even if they appear juicy. Drivers, make una wise up nah. Remember, problem no dey finish o. You not fit solve all in a day. Peace. |

I've told him to report to Bolt. No shaking. I actually asked for price review from Bolt which I believe their system must have noted. They already reversed the amount to 7k on the app. I guess reason he is making an issue out of it. izzou: [color=royalblue]Ohh
There's nothing to do. He should report to Bolt and EFCC.
Next time, don't settle for less. Collect your complete money as e dey hot 
Bolt already removed their comission from #11,200 The guy sef dey insist say na 12k you collect
Yet na 7k you collect [/color] |

No. The guys had earlier given me wrong impression about the trip. Firstly, he didn't indicate the address both for pick up and drop off. He just put Lekki Phase 1 on th app as drop off. I had to struggle to get part of the address as he didn't give the street eventually. On getting to the estate gate, I called several times before another guy picked his call and gave the description of the drop off. Since the lady said the 2 girls were brought for her and insisted she was the one paying, I didn't bother calling the guy again. izzou: [color=royalblue]Did you call the guy when the lady was refusing to pay the fare?[/color] |

Guys, see me se wahala o. A guy made a request for 2 girls coming from Ajuwon axis to Lekki Phase 1 yesterday. It took me around 50 mins waiting before the girls showed up. I waited that long cos it was a destination trip as well as on 1.9 surge. Trip ended 11, 200. The guy didn't show up. I saw a lady who came to get the girls. She said the amount was too much and that she was the one to pay. After back and forth, she asked for my account number. She said she had done the trqnsfer but I didn't see it. She later gave me cash of 7k. I asked for price review and it was approved. I was surprised to hear from the guy today that I collected 12k from the girl whereas the amount was showing 7k on his app. I tried explaining what happened but he wouldn't listen. He kept threatening that he would report me to Bolt. I ve told him to go ahead. I still have the screenshot of the original amount of 11200. I've shared it with him but he is not listening to my explanation. What else do you advise? |

As we are about starting a new year Rules to know.
Co pilot.
Let me go straight to the point.
Rule 1. Don't go for another ride when you have not seen the money for the one you just finished, even if the person transferred. Wait for the money. No matter how small it is.
Rules 2. Only have a friendly talk with your client; don't do him any friendly favor by lending him money even if he needs to buy breath to be alive. Many not some, many are scam.
Rule 3. If a rider drops from the car and says he is coming, it is either he drops his phone and you see the phone is working or you also come down from the car and follow him or her with style. It is not safe also you seat in the car; come out of the car and move away from the car. Only if the person is inside his or her house you play smart.
Rule 4. When a rider tells you let me buy something in a shopping mall, please pilot, come down from the car, enter the mall to pretend as if you want to buy water and make sure you move around MORE with your phone inside the mall so that it will be counting.
Rule 5. If possible don't be too friendly focus on your job. He who will bless you will bless you.
Rule 6. Don't lend your client phone to make call to his boyfriend or girl friend...never.
Rule 7. Always don't be in a rush to drop call after making or receiving call from the rider. Listen carefully to the background. Sometimes you will hear the last conversation if they want to scam or rob you. Learn to listen to your mind whether to go and pick the client or not not to go.
Rule 8. Learn to keep a pen in your pocket and small screw driver beside you in the car. The pen in the pocket is better. It is a weapon for you. Don't put screw in your pocket it will be obvious. Believe me. Pilot, keep pen in your pocket.
Rule 9. We all are sinners. Yes! It all depends on you who you are. If you are a Muslim, pray before you drive and a Christian pray before you drive and after you have finished driving for the day.
Rule 10. Be strong Be Alert Be smart.
