I hear guys saying all girls are gold diggers at any small request, but why refer to a girl as a gold digger if you can not care for her needs.

Many people venture into relationship these days and most male partners do not understand their role, one basic role is your ability to provide for your household, if you can not do this then you are not a man but a weakling, if your female partner request for money most times it is not to "gold dig" rather is it to test your financial capacity and reasoning.

I wonder how some guys think "if she loves me she won't ask for anything". Excuse me are you all right? She loves you and intends to spend her life with you so she is trying to assess what your financial limits are so she can add to it or know how to request.

Imagine a boyfriend not being able to pay for his girlfriend's hair or even buy her a new shoe or even just give her money to buy foodstuff, and saying " am I her parents?" Well you are more than that because the moment you asked her into your life, you also asked her needs and accepted her as your responsibility.

PLEASE STOP DATING IF YOU CAN'T LEARN THE MAIN responsibility ATTACHED TO IT

For those who are surprised how bad Car Talk section has degenerated to, I am not. I really pity the serious minded ones that still try to be active in this section, depending on how many left in this section.

Even the most basic preventative maintenance work (engine oil change), I don't bother doing it myself anymore. It cost me only N1,000 to drive into a Total fuel station and have it done there, the way I want it done. However, no one has replaced my Peugeot 505 V6 brake pads, except by myself, ever since I own the lion from 2010 till date (both front and rear brake pads). Even the simple thing like changing the engine oil on that lion, I still do it myself. I have given the lion to only one 504/505 mechanic in Abuja for few strenuous works/repairs on the lion, under my supervision or instructions, but never brake pad replacements (maybe will start doing it in future). Not that the brake pad replacements are special work, but I enjoy working on that lion, more than my other lions.

It's very easy for some attention seekers to go online and lie against someone. But I really don't understand how people believe everything people claim online about others with no proof.

As for the ones claiming the Z9 V6 transmission conversion I did is a common knowledge and have been successfully done hundreds of times in Nigeria, it showed how ignorant they are and being boastful about it at the same time. Z8 is not Z9. Z8 V6 Auto was designed to be converted to Manual, but Z9 V6 was not (both mechanically and electrically). The mechanicals and electricals of Z8 V6 & Z9 V6 are completely different. Z9 V6 is wider than Z8 V6. Z8 V6 CV joints and drive shafts are different from Z9 V6. Z8 V6 has both auto and Manual Engine ECUs, while Z9 V6 has only Auto (no manual) engine ECU configured to work only with Automatic transmission. Z8 electrical is similar to D9, while Z9 is completely different.

To successfully do the conversion to work as if it was factory from new, I had to source parts for the conversion from 3 different lion models which cost fortunate to gather, start and conclude. I did the conversion so well that even automatic gearbox fault & PRND warnings are not showing on the MFD and instrument panel, which is usually an issue on 99.9% Peugeot cars converted from Auto to Manual Transmissions. Not even ABS/ESP ECU that is configured on the Z9 V6 to work only with Auto gearbox is showing any warning sign. Yes, I am that good with Peugeot electrical systems.

Converting a Z9 V6 is similar as Converting a D2 V6 Saloon from Auto to Manual. How many people have successfully done it? Where are your proofs? Even 407 V6 has Manual Engine ECU which makes it easier to convert than phase Z9 V6 with ES9A. It's possible that someone else has done it. I would like to know, not claiming what you have no clue.

Claiming that conversion of Z9 V6 to Manual requires only Peugeot 406 parts is a fooolish thing to say, not just being ignorant. It means whoever that made that claim have no clue what Z9 is made up.

Claiming that Z9 V6 automatic transmission is the most unreliable automatic gearbox in the world is directly saying all Japanese automatic gearboxes, including the ones in Toyota Vehicles, are the most unreliable automatic Transmissions ever produced in the world. You are so ignorant of Z9 systems that you didn't know it's a Japanese gearbox also use in Toyota Vehicles and other brands.

I am yet to meet any Nigerian that removed a perfectly working automatic gearbox and swapped in a manual gearbox, which was what I did. Yes, I am that crazy. I wouldn't be a Monk if I wasn't crazy.

Reason why I shared about this my successful Z9 V6 Stick-Shift conversion here in this section was because a lot of people are scared to do it, considering how Peugeot designed the Z9 V6, mechanically and electrically. If I could do it, anybody else can. All you need is courage and technical know how. No one online (globally) has successfully done the conversion, unless it wasn't posted online (or I am yet to find one).

Best you can do is hate me and my success. But you can never be me.

Supposedly 30min upper control arm replacement jobs become a war and a fight.

I just started driving recently and I realized sometimes I snap back to reality and wonder where my mind was. It’s like my mind wanders away from the driving for two to three secs and unto something else. But I still do fine on the road, no reckless driving.


Will I get over this or it’s normal? I might have to stop driving if this is peculiar to me. I hate when it happens.

deepwater:
You are stupid


I will come back to tell you why.

Just hold this one first - you are very stupid
