radautoworks:Like I said before, the only picture I have of 5w30 mobil 1 oil happens to have a filter on it .. I was not implying that the filter with the 5w30 is for his car .. After all I posted another filter that was ordered for a lexus 2013 .. |
HeavenlyBang:Lol .... Funny guy that you are ..just because a few of them had issues with oil burn now means that all of them issues.. We live in two different world bro .. Before I take advice from you or anybody else from forum.. I will rather cut my wrist .. I dey Yankee bro a Nissan dealership is about 20 minutes away from me .. I will rather talk to them about the G35 issues than a person from a third world country... the issues u have with them are self conflicted. Nissan can't risk having issues with $40k car.. It is minor issues that dealership would have resolved.. Make I waka pass as you said .. Me I dey Yankee, if I need any more information, I will drive rite to the dealership to make enquiries, which of course u can't do .. $40k car will be having oil burn and Nissan will let the poo ride like.. Lol |
HeavenlyBang:Than they should be a recall on those cars .. That is very bad ,for the fact the car is 08 .. They should have fix that issues before it continues to the following year.. That is very bad of them .. But in all honesty, I have never heard of those G35 having issues like that.. The second hand value of the G35 news shape from 06 ,still hold their value especially with low miles.. I have been eyeing the G35 for years, it is too expensive to get a fairly use one with low miles.. |
weyreypey:Playboy Benz do have their own issues too .. Especially the ones built in USA or assembly in the USA .. But the ones specially built in Germany have less issues.. So it is a two way sword.. And also not all 100k car built will come out perfect ,mainly due to most of the car been assemble in different countries or parts built in diffrent countries before reaching it's final destination. U are going to run into some defects one way or another |
HeavenlyBang:Agree that u mentioned 5w30. And also agree that you mentioned 0w40 and 5w40 .. But my point is that there is no were in the owners manual that mention 5w40, 10w40 ,can be used.. In Nigeria everybody is mechanic and a car enthusiastic . If I decide to buy a brand new G35 2019 today and the only recommended oil is 5w30 specifically written in the manual .. Trust me F the car enthusiastic of the world, and am sticking to the manufacture advice.. So that my warranty will cover anything that happens, the wrong use of oil will for certain void the warranty.. I know the word " warranty" is a strange word in the Nigerian business environment.. Trust me playboy if am spending or financing a $45k car ,best believe that I will follow the manufacture advice.. If that particular engine burns oil ,it is the dealership duty to fix the problem it get me another car .. And mind u ,for example if Nissan sells over 100k G35 cars ,chances are some of those cars might have issue ,let's say maybe 10k of them might have issues with shorten of oil or minor issues .. It does not necessarily mean all of the 100k G35 built will have shorten of oil .. And there is thing called recall, if your car happens to fall into that list ,you can take it to the dealership and have it fix free of charge |
Tboy2019:Bro if you love yourself, stay away from Nigerian used cars ..most of them are poorly maintain. I have an 04 civic landing soon. Clean title, excellent condition. It will fit your budget and very easily to maintain.. I have three of them on uber |
woodrow:Am sorry about that.. Currently my team is not available to take orders or delivery till next week .. Buy than I will post a contact number you can reach us at .. And for the inconvenience this might of cause you, I will take 500 naira off from any oil you buy from us .. Again I apologise for the inconvenience
|
radautoworks:I spoke to the young man via whatapps weeks ago ..there is nothing to fear or wonder ...
|
asamwababy:U get 1naira |
HeavenlyBang:My main argument is you saying that 5w40, 0w40 is ok for 08 infinite G35.. And reading the owner manual didn't list it in the book .. Am encouraging people to follow what the Manuel tells them to do. In the USA for example, failing to follow the owners manual will void your warranty, especially on a brand new car .. Take it as you like it bro.. |
freezy4me:This is the correct oil filter for your car.. This brand is pretty good. I have no issues with it at .. And I also use them on my uber cars .. Good for 15k miles oil change. The most have done is 11k miles, pushing to do 12k with oil and filters.. I don't have yours in stock.. I only get them on orders The K & N filters below is for a Gs350 for a client.. Just showing examples of filters

radautoworks:That was the only picture of the 5w30 that I had.. And it happens to have the oil filter and the 0w20 oil too ... |
freezy4me:Best or one of the best alternative is Mobil 1 .. Extended performance 5w30 will do very well.. This is what I also use for my 05 Nissan altima 05 Ser .. Use a good filter too
|
HeavenlyBang:Since that statement is coming from a Nigerian mechanic, I am highly not offended at all ... I didn't expect anything different, unfortunately that is how most of you guys and country maintain your infrastructure... |
freezy4me:This manual is specifically for 08 g35.. Now there is no were it mention any other oil type.. Before you car arrives go and download owners manual on 08 G35. If your read it carefully it tells you not to even use oil additives .. Read it well and always follow the manufactures advice
|
HeavenlyBang:Owners manual for g35 08 .. It only mentioned 5w30..
|
HeavenlyBang:Blind leading the blind.. So I guess the owners know better than the manufacture... buddy I know you guys in Nigerian feel the need not to follow instructions at all.. For an example if I bought a brand new 2019 is250 from the dealership with a warranty .. And the manufacture spefications of that car says only use 5w30 oil or 5w20 .. And coz I know better than they manufacture I than use 5w40 oil ,coz I read somewhere that the oil runs better on a particular engine ..the car now develops faults.. Do u think the warranty will cover me.. My point is always follow the manual that came with the car ..not some poo you read online or your buddy tells u too.. Always follow the manufacture advice at all times. That is my point.. And also there was no point or part that I read that 5w40 or 0w40 is allow for g35.. .. |

freezy4me:My brother, my brother? How many times did I call you? You are driving ones of the best luxury cars that you get value for money .. The car sells for about 3m Naira tokunbo and the cost of the engine can easily buy you a ticket to dubai.. And you don't know the oil type? All you have to do is look at the oil cap of the car or read the Manuel book or check online... Please and please don't ever use 5w40 or 0w40 engine oil on that car ..please follow the owner Manuel at all times.. Whoever is telling you to use 0w40 or especially telling you go for 5w40 either does not have your best interest or has no clue what the hell he is talking about, or both.... And for that type car or engine stay the F away from conventional oil and use the recommended oil and good oil filter.. Also go for the import Mobil 1 oil .. We have lots genuine seller on the forum selling oil including myself... At the bottom below pictures.. Is a lexus 2006 Is250 which is in my opinion is on the same level as the G35.. Am hoping to close a deal on the car soon. Now my point to you is would I even use 5w40 oil ? And I highly doubt that 0w40 is even allow and plus 0w40 oil are meant for suv My brother I will stick to what the manufacture tells me to do ..the cost of both engine is not chicken change.. And I don't care how good a mechanic is ..once they start playing with the engine, that engine will never ever be the same ..no matter how good the mechanic is.. That is my word of advice bro ..you have a beautiful car and take good care of it

seanfer:What u see in the picture is 5liters or 5quarts for 17k and Fram oil filter is 2k .. Both oil and oil filter are good for 15k miles.. I have a customer pushing 9k miles before oil change |
Deprofessional:Oga read the Manuel well or oil. Cap .. It is 5w30 and I have oil filter that will last 15k miles
|
Jeterry:Not too sure about that.. Majority of corolla are from uber partners. Corolla is the most abuse cars plying the Nigerian road.. By the time the corolla is passed on to the next buyer ,it is usually on its last leg .. From experience I will never buy any use naija cars, especially the corolla... |
Fran6ik:In mine humble opinion, you are better off with the corolla.. Tokunbo corolla and 05 tokunbo C240 are not the same price.. A grade A Tokunbo C240 will cost u nothing less than 2m on the spot.. A Benz is designed for luxury and speed ,but unfortunately enough not too many people can afford to care for a Benz.. A Benz is not for first time car owner.. Oil change on a Benz alone will run you at about 40k .. Benz can be a bit expensive to maintain, but once you maintain it well, it will last you years to come.. I would not advice benz for a first time car owner... it is a beauty to drive in a Benz, and takes an experienced owner to maintain that beauty |

Waybedot:5w30 .. I have only the engine oil in stock.... For the gear box oil , to avoid stories that touch.. You will need to follow the owners manual...

elshanAutos:Thanks o .. |
Philadelphia:How is he going to confirm that without the title.. Does CarGuideNG have some sort of magical powers and looks at the car and he can tell if the car is clean title or not ..am I missing something here |
engrken2:It is 4matic ..nothing wrong with 4matic.. Nigerians generally have very bad maintenance culture.. The car is clean title and low milage 129k .. I just didn't want to be greedy and keep another luxury car at home otherwise I would have loved to keep the C240.... Funny enough any one that buys this car or tokunbo cars should always change oil ,coolant, gear oil etc. But most people wouldn't bother.. Same people will come out and say car no strong etc toyota is more rugged etc.. With proper amount of abused any car can break down |
chuddy111:Asking is 2m ... please keep in mind this is clean title... this is not copart, iaai , naija used car .. This is USA spec Tokunbo car with 129k miles. .original miles... vin# will be given upon request.. All duties has been fully paid ...Lagos cleared |
Ladies and Gents... American spec C240 Tokunbo is now for sale... Accident Free ....This is no copart, iaai, salvage type of car ... The car is clean title.... For more information email me at dru23@hotmail.com and the best part this is 129k original miles...
