I just fast forwarded to the part where you wrote oil, i know your post can never be complete without it grin grin
My brother, wrong use of engine oil is of the major break down of cars in Nigeria.......And it is one of the easiest and basic things car owners should be aware of

Car very rugged, engine block is aluminum, ground clearance is low but wit bigger tyre and suspension been stiffer it will survive and also needs an engr dat knows it not any kazeem, be careful with the American spec
America spec cars are usually very good ... whether na kazzem or shop mechanic, the point here is to get a mechanic that knows what he or she is doing........And car owners also need to take responsibility when it comes maintenance.... When majority of car owners are using wrong oil and water instead of coolant etc ....nothing do USA spec cars I beg

@dru23, and all the bosses on this awesome thread. Pls is civic 2009 rugged enough for this hustle? As I see it as too fragile.

2, how much is good to give it out on HP? N:b the guy was using the car till he left the country and claims it's in good condition.

Thanks in advance
Never had experience with the civic 09 at all .. But I feel that the 2003 to 2005 are more rugged only issue is ground clearance... but if you can rims 1 size bigger than the original size , than you get a better ground clearance

My problem with this is that the owner does 100% of the repairs and maintenance of the vehicle and the driver uses the car out of state without informing him. I am still surprised at how nice some owners are. Honestly.
Na so my brother.... Some of the Drivers common sense is not common. And most think that they are doing u a favour ....... Owners that fail to understand this uber business or put all their eggs in 1 basket , will have no-one to blame but themselves......

Owners please always state in your contract, vehicle is strictly for uber/bolt, ondo/edo state not allow.

Driver will always claim rental should be low, so they won't over use the car, but here we go, a popular driver here @Felicity0001 negotiated a rent for 10k weekly, in the name of pandemic,i will use the car like my own, maintain it very well, because i once own a car, now run that same car to and flow to Edo state, more than 5times.

Come back here and claim your contract never restrict me from going to Edo state.

You're so lucky you dealing with dru23, try it with me, I will establish a contract fraud, and make sure u r charge, then come to court to defend yourself.

Thanks for the quick response. Two more questions:
- so I have been using the so called palm oil on the car, is it advisable to switch to synthetic?
- what's the recommended average mileage to change the synthetic oil? I saw 75000 in one of the brands
1. It is more than likely too late to change to the manufacture reccomnadation.. Continue using the palm oil until the engine starts bring out smoke, or better yet sell the car before it gets to that point.....

2. For recommded interval, always read the owners manual. For some cars oil change interval is always every 3k miles if using conventional oil . And every 7k miles to 10k miles if using full synethtic... also put into account that Nigerian factor or Lagos traffic with constant stop and go ,idling, dust etc will put more stress on the engine.. So it might better to change earlier than the recommended interval....

Remember when we were beefing some years back and you talked smack about Carquest oil and I said you would only love mobil until something cheaper for you to sell came along? grin
I still sell Mobil 1 , but at the sametime not everyone can afford Mobil 1 even at the low price of 17k naira compare to 24k naira ... so I try offer alternatives to my other customers ..... I bring in more Mobil 1 extended performance than any other brand... Castrol Magnatec gtx sells fast too .........

Not entirely true, if done properly with the right parts without having to weld parts together has the vehicle was designed for manual and automatic/ left and right
But to find the right mechanic is the koko.. Me personally I just like dont like converting away from the manufacturer intended purpose.... I like follow come things..

Do you know how to convert manual gear to automatic. Na there we take they know people that sabi mechanic or rewire work.

Can you ring engine? If you can do all this, i have job for you.

I have 2 tokunbo Corolla just arrived, both manual gear, i need to convert to automatic.

Since Corolla is expensive lately, i go for manual gear in auction.
Lol, I thought you know by now , anything converting away from the manufacturer intended purpose is a disaster, especially, especially, especially by Nigerian mechanics, that car will never be the same again

Presegs:
With your epistle based on your personal opinion, read what I replied gazzuzz with on this is post you quoted. I have every reason to believe that you skipped it judging by your comment.
Am just stating my own general opinion , I don't like it when people facelift a car for whatever reason it may be
. It looks cheesy to me , have seen a G wagon facelift and it look so out of place.. Each to his own sha, am not knocking anyone off.. And I was replying Gazzuzu when he said some cars makes sense when facelift before been sold , whether before sales or after sales ,facelift looks cheesy to me..

And facelift is generally done to make the car currant ,since the owner can't afford the more recent model
Autos › Re: SOLD Full Option Lexus Es 350 2012 Is Available by dru23(m): 6:15pm On Sep 15, 2020
GAZZUZZ:
There are vehicles that facelifiting would make sense before sale e.g.

Toyota Prado 2010
Lexus Gx460 2010

But let me not shalaye too much
Sorry to intrude.... When a car is facelift , the inside is never facelift ..no matter how you facelift a car from 2009 to 2014 model. The FACT remains deep down that it is facelift.... I never can't understand people that do that, to me it shows that the owner of the car is trying to keep up with Jones.....

It remains of this Yoruba king that was fighting with his Jamaican Canadian wife.. The Oba or king kicked the wife out on the street.... And she expose how really broke the Oba showing off etc .. The interviewer stated that Oba is rich and lots of cars etc ,how can the oba be broke etc .. She stated that people dash the oba cars and even the prado jeep the oba drives is old model jeep that was facelift to make it look currant she was laughing when she said that......

It remains when Chrysler 300m 2015 model, people in the ghettos were face lifting the grill to look like a Rolls Royce... that trend didnt last too long .......I don't mean any form disrespect to anyone... The facelift of cars to me is such lame .. But to each is own sha.

Good day nairalander,I am planning venturing into lubricant oil business (road side engine oil business)..I want to be buying in drums and retailing it in gallons and one litre kegs,..am also planning to incorporate it with sealed oil from jesco and AZ .
pls if ur into this business pls enlighten me more on
-purchase
-how much it cost in drum and cost of sealed type
-location
-profit margin
My brother do not buy in drums to retail in gallons o ... look for people that bring in imported oil from the USA , and try and buy from them at wholesale prices to sell... don't do business like local champ... more car owners are more enlightened about engine oil now, even though there is a long way to go ....... ... I do import from the USA so if you serious you can reach me .....keep in mind I only sell in 5liters or 5quarts only..... My prices are very reasonable ok for retail sale ....please don't ask me to sell below my price point or ask it for 12k etc ....

Thank you my brother for saying that...you can still get your point across without insulting the person.. He manned up and apologize for how he went about it .. He is setting a good example by doing....
