when a car is said to not age gracefully it's not the power train..........it is the body

the tiny light will stand as tho its still toks.....the civic won't

you are saying people shldnt drive a car for more than 5 years as if it's ur business how long cars are driven for

Dru Car Wash Soap oncoming.

Yeah next shipment I will get them for private usage.. Some of uber cars had a very nice paint, but now due to the soap been use the paint has faded. The harsh chemical been use at the car wash will damage your paint.. And you know that people can wash car everyday.. Ideally the more you wash your car ,the more the paints fades away ...unless you can wax the car to protect the paint from fading away....

This is the 2003 Honda civic bought Tokunbo two years ago
for uber When I bought the car ,the car was buried under snow ..The car was bought with 167k miles . And sold off with 275k miles.. That is about over 100k miles that the car was use for uber.. Now if you than use the car for only private use, how many years will be that 100k miles equate to ? My guess that will be about 5years or more....

Now a certain person was saying that civic don't age well.. I totally disagree, it all depends on how you take care of the car .. I don't see any reason why anyone should drive a car for more than 5years in Nigeria... below are the currant pictures when the 03 civic was sold.. Please feel free to make comments and likes

Ur very correct, but some are more resistive to abuse than others.

In that case corollas are prone to abuse, this is because people believe corollas are strong and people tend to ignore basic maintenance routine.. They will say na toyota it is rugged etc.. So just because car is rugged ,we should ignore proper maintenance routine? My experience in Ehailing has taught me a lot about nigerian maintenance culture, look at our infrastructure for example, smh ... look at the International airport for example.. Should I continue?

In the words of gazzuzz, "it doesn't age gratefully" meaning as it gets older u might have to visit an auto repair shop frequently.

Which car dey age well for naija? Most people can't even properly take care of their cars ...

please house am considering honda civic, but am scared of of the leg pull issues. please Enlight.

From experience the civics that I have from 03 to 05 ..are fantastic cars no leg pulling at all, strong cars and very good on fuel easy for mechanics to work on ... but civic transmission can be very unforgiving, if you don't use the rite ATF ... forget people telling you that they don't age well... which car the age well for naija? When you wash your car with omo soap or laundry soap. Those things damage the paint of the car ....

Omo sorry can't do .. Stick to civic 03 to 05 ,because you can realistically reach 1.3m without boring too much... matrix and corolla are over the top overrated.. And I don't do HP, have learnt lesson from others.. Wish you the best

According to u;
Elantras were the best about a year ago.
Today, Civic is the best aka bullet proof engine.

If hybrids won't work, the ones on lagos roads, are they driven by spirits

If everybody is jumping off a bridge, should I follow them

A business man should always learn to adapt to his business surroundings .. The cost of elantra is too high for me ,it will take me a longer period to recover my money from elantra than from a civic... I call easily buy two civics from the cost of an elantra, that is with a little bit of luck and 400k extra ... few weeks ago I had the chance to buy two civics 04 and 05 at a lovely price .. But didn't have the cash at hand. So those opportunity has come around me few times, but u have to look for it .. It will not land on your lap .. To be honest with you those hybrids are so cheap at the auction, don't nobody buys them.. People ran away from them .. An hybrid is an ideal and best option for me, but reality on ground will not let me try am .. Those that drive hybrid am sure are not telling you the risk factor..

A car owner who has never driven before has no Ehailing experience IMHO.

You don't need to be a mechanic to know that wrong use of oil will damage the car ... you don't need to go to college to be rich .. Common sense should apply in all these people we do .. You don't need to be a genius to knw that hybrid or electric cars will not work in the Nigerian environment...

Na me you dey tell all these?
If I hadn't told you that they (Honda) phased out ATF Z1 in favour of DW-1 which is backward compatible, would you had listened?
Look at the third 3rd item sold and what it states it will tell you that you've been wrong all these while.

I buy most of those stuff on ebay.. All I had to do was type Honda civic ATF on ebay search.. And it will bring up the dw1 and stated that it is also that it use to be Z1 .... Even if use the Z1 it will not damage the transmission, The Dw 1 is the new and improved version of the Z1 ... since I import my stuff myself, the DW 1 would have pop up .. For the fact that I follow the owners manual that would have lead to me to currant version of it ... since Honda don't make them anymore, it will be hard to get it in the market...

kingreign:
Before you ignorantly mislead folks, here are the benefits of Honda DW-1 over the ATF-Z1,

- Backward compatible

- Low Temperature, Lower Viscosity:

- Better lubrication

- Reduced friction at low temperature

- Improved fuel economy

- High Temperature, Stable Viscosity:

- Maintains film thickness

- Improved protection against breakdown

- Full synthetic, high film strength.

- synthetic fluid compared to ATF Z1 which is conventional fluid.

Like I said early on, if you follow the manufacture advice, it will show the updated version of it , again below

Please, what type of transmission oil do you use for your civic? Or which do you advise to be used for Accord (Honda generally) inorder to have a smooth transmission experience because I noticed that few people I know do have issue with their Honda automatic transmission.
PS: this is my first time I will be using a Honda, trying to get all the necessary knowledge I can.
