Car TalkRe: Mercedes Benz Thread by driving: 5:38am On Nov 30, 2020
Good morning guys, please I need help to take a decision on the car to buy between a 2003 c320 and a 2007 c280 4matic. Is there any issue with 4matic? Someone said I shouldn't buy a 4matic. Please educate me on reliability, part availability and price for both cars.

Thanks in advance

Hello All,

Please how do I go about getting a new birth certificate from outside Nigeria?

I was born in Nigeria but I require a new Birth certificate as I cannot find the original one that was issued.

Kindly help.

Regards.
If you are above 18, you can't get NPC birth certificate but you can get an attestation of age from same NPC.
Or the old form F LASG birth certificate. I can process either of the 2 for you. Contact me

RomanceRe: A Verbally Abusive Guy I Just Met by driving: 10:24pm On Oct 21, 2020
ladywealth:
Good evening my NL guys.

I just met a guy last month ending, we exchanged numbers and started chatting. He asked me out.. I really enjoyed chatting with him, just him alone. So few days after, he invited me to his house. I declined but I noticed that he stopped chatting with me.

Few days after, he asked about my genotype without even greeting me. I counter questioned him and he attacked me, claiming that he is not happy with me. I replied that 'I don't care'.
The next thing I received was rains of insults. Saying that I insulted him. I admitted and we settled it.

For the short times I've known him, I could see the kind of qualities I want in a man. But the problem he has and that he attested to is verbal abuse...

I noticed that anytime he invites me to his house and I declined, it always piss him off and he stops talking to me.
I decided not to visit him because it's not safe for me.

He argues over little things on chat, he talks to me like I'm a baby ( he is 33 and I'm 22). he is domineering... I'm just confused on the decision to date him considering all these flaws. I am suspicious of him being violent.
thanks
Are you Kunle's girlfriend? grin , This is his situation with the girl he just met. The girl is also 22 grin

I want to take this car 94 535i away from home. My issues are,
(1) it has been underused for way too long, I'm not sure if it wouldn't give me regular issues. Though the owner claims it is fine. But I know it doesn't undergo regular servicing, maintenance and all that.
(2) I need information on how much the body work, bumper and fender will cost me.
(3) Is there a possibility of an exterior upgrade, especially in the area of the bumper and fender?

NB: Its going to be my first car.
You can do it. I was driving a fx35 before I changed to BMW x3. I was able to do a lot on my own with the help of YouTube videos, what I read online and of course i visited BMW parts market in Mushin. For the prices you need, visit the parts market. This is a very old model 5 series. The tokunbo parts will be cheap.
Car TalkRe: BMW Owners' Forum by driving: 6:36pm On Sep 24, 2020
4x4 light has stayed on on my bmw x3. The car has disappointed me a few times when I needed the AWD. So I watched a video on how to work on the AWD actuator. I ordered the motor gear and did the change with the help of a local mechanic. The old one is bad. My 4*4 light is still on though but the 4WD works fine now. I have tested it.
See pictures.

How did you do it. I followed a YouTube video for the ones without idrive where you hood down the phone button on the steering and the radio will prompt for pairing code but did not work. 08 328i and 010 530i
First, locate the unique 4 digits PK attached to your car at the left side of the trunk. (Picture attached).
Then, put on your car radio, get your phone ready. Press the R/T button on the steering. You will see ACTIVATE PHONE on your radio screen. Put on your phone Bluetooth and search/pair new device. Pair using the 4 digits PK (PassKey). That's all.

NB: You may answer your calls with the voice control button (the button below the R/T button) or from your phone.

Would only work if the car has Bluetooth functionality. Some models have the phone button on the radio and steering but has no built-in Bluetooth.
It works perfectly bro. No Bluetooth just the phone stuff. It is for only calls and it has access to my phone book because the name of caller is displayed. I did the connection for my friend's 2005 x5 too and it is works perfectly.
Car TalkRe: BMW Owners' Forum by driving: 3:40pm On Aug 15, 2020
I have been seeing this phone sign on my steering controls. So today I decided to activate it by connecting my tecno phone with it. It works perfectly. In case you can't find the Bluetooth pairing pin in the car manual, check the left side of the trunk.

I will be working on my transfer case actuator motor in few days. I ordered for the gear already.

Good evening guys. I just got this lovely E39. It’s from Germany, and used by one of their own here in Nigeria. It was barely used. The tyres manufactured in 2000 look brand new. I’ve driven in it just once and it’s thrilling all the way.

It has a couple of lights on the cluster, ABS, Check engine, and something I’m yet to decipher. I hope to get an e-manual because the seller didn’t provide me one.

I noticed a few required fixes -
Upholstery
Faded instruments pane
Brake discs
In effective braking
AC chilling only through some vents
Cracked windshield
Worn wiper blades
I’ll update when I remember next...


I humbly ask the following of you eminent BMW community
I want it inspected by a bmw tech. Can one be recommended on here?
I need to know tips and tricks on how to maintain and preserve this next generation classic.
I humbly seek ideas on what appropriate modification can be done to make it look more appealing?

Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Are you in Lagos? I can arrange those parts that need replacement for you.

After my last experience with the 7series, I finally bought a x3. I have always been a fan of the x5, but the x3 has a better ride quality. Oh boy, that car na something else. My fx is on jiji available for the next user.

Today I had to take a painful decision to tow the SUV to Benin. The mechanic in Auchi told me he had set the timing and it started. He said the vehicle started but goes off after steaming for a while so the electrician said he would need to replace the camshaft sensors. This was since Monday. I called him today and all he told me was that the electrician has been busy. So haven reviewed fact that the vehicle has been with him for 4 weeks without completely fixing it, I have sent a towing van to move the car to Benin perhaps I will get it fixed there.
Please let them scan the vehicle again and be sure it is the camshaft or crankshaft sensors. I bought tokunbo sensors from a guy in Ladipo and they all work fine. Remove the old sensors and tell me the last 3 letters on it or the whole letters on it. For example, one of mine has a29-632 l20 (camshaft). Then another has a29 662 l20 (crankshaft). You may google those numbers. Another thing the guy did apart from using his multimeter to check the sensors, was placing the old sensor in front of the new sensor to check if they repel or attract. Let me know if you need further assistance.

Crankshaft sensor.
Make sure you are changing the correct sensor.
You can access it from underneath the vehicle
Thank you brother

Is the vehicle still throwing up error codes for the camshaft sensors? If it is, then you need to get a good replacement sensor before all the lights will go off.
P0335 , I scanned my Infiniti fx35 this morning.
