Quick question.?


So, I woke up with an issue as I have a decision to make. I have an hoNDA civic 2007 with no issues but then an offer to purchase an Acura Mdx 2003 came up. The acura is super clean and spotless but has a gearbox issue even though its drivable but could break down at any time. My civic just needs a new spray (40k) and maybe servicing of the front legs (not more than 14k).

The offer is to drop my civic and add a 100k for the acura owning to the fact that I would fix the gearbox issue myself (cost about 150k asides workmanship). Do u think it's a good idea or I should stick to my 2007 HoNDA Civic?
I will like to buy the Civic from you, how much last, can I see pix

Good mornin house. Can gurus in the house help me out.

A panel beater opened my rear exhaust pot/muffler and we saw that greater part of the perforated tube inside was in shreds.

He now cleared d mess and used an ordinary iron pipe to construct another tube inside the pot; he made holes all over the pipe to look like the damaged one. He welded it back again and neatly patched up the broken exhaust pot.

The car went firing perfectly, with lesser noise (no much noise before the work anyway) and great fuel efficiency.

But my worry is whether there could be some mechanical issues or dangers to this reconstructed internal tube. Should I go for a "new" rear exhaust pot/muffler?
Pleaase how is car still running, a panel beater give me the same condition. Said he can reconstruct my catalyst converter

MotorGuru:
Catalyst is losing its capacity to ensure exhaust gases are rid of NOx emmisions

solutions:

1. Replace catalyst with a new unit (expensive)
2. Use an Oxygen sensor apdator to fool the ECU (cheapest)
3. gut out catalyst (AND DO NOT PUT WIRE GAUZE INSIDE). Engine will sound louder
What is the effect of option 2 of fuel consumption

Vehicle history....

I really don't have much of a history, but a staff of a company I work for in ibadan owns the vehicle, and for almost 1 year he has been asking me to take a look at the car and I have been avoiding him.

Finally he said he wanted to scrap the car for any amount and I said he should halt, Tow the car to the workshop and I will fix it.

car does not start, it's been in and out of a lot of kazeem workshops. Electrical and mechanical issues, I have never seen the car physically I do not know what I am up against.

may the Lord be with me wink

Yeah I am the guy that bought the Pontiac, decided to let it go, this is my second username. No point trying to stain someone business name, that would be reacting rather than responding, hence the reason I didn't see a reason to continue with the thread.

Timi is a good guy... Let just say there are things in some tokunbo car that even you the seller might not see... On a positive note he tried to make them right once brought to his attention.

But no problem... Wish his car sale business the best... Pray we all win. wink

I drove an 05 matrix a friend just bought and my first thoughts were, "people wey dey use this motor dey try o"

First I tried adjusting the driver seat and saw one nonsense flat plastic. I was to take the vehicle for a wash and didnt want to go through the horror of adjusting the seat again so I tried saving the current seat position and it occurred to me the vehicle has no memory seat. No steering wheel control and no ABS, the way the engine sounded self no give me joy. Infact, when I got back to my TL, it felt like I was driving a Rolls Royce grin

I will never use the vehicle even if it wasforced on me. To those using it, una dey try o grin

My daily driver is a 2011 nissan sunny. But there are times I might not drive the car for several weeks. I sell cars so I might drive a different car every day in order to test before re-sale.
How reliable is the Nissan and maintainace also
