From the above. I don't see where the driver is at fault for the sludge. Your driver is not responsible for maintenance (oil change). Therefore, it is not his fault.

It's your fault and mechanic.
Well you me be rite .... At the end of the day partners need to be more careful . If you have a good car , plus value it and don't let any drivers come out here shouting up and down 30k rental on a good car you spend money. Responsible owners of good cars take note.
And also talking to my manager, he said any tokunbo cars that comes in, should have the engine flush for the fact that you are not sure of the previous oil that was use. If you can get what they call engine flush it will be better, than the method the mechanic use to flush out the engine. From now on lesson learned. I will import my own engine flush.

Is it your driver that is responsible for service?
The car was service and fix by my old mechanic. And given to new management and new mechanic. When driver was sacked, manager decided to change oil for first time under his care. And found these. So either old mechanic lied that he change oil or new manager never change oil. Only God's known at the end of the day. The driver phone was seize and must pay outstanding balance. Which he his about to pay fully. Lucky for me the grease didn't get inisde the engine fully.
This is why I keep telling owners , be strict with your cars especially if your cars are either grade A Nigerian used or tokunbo. And don't allow drivers coming out here shouting up and down for 30k rental on a good car. Partners value your money, hard work and especially your cars.

I'm sure @ifyeez doesn't think about that before he responded.

It's a toks 03 Camry that isn't up to a month. I gave it out to a driver just last week after all the usual registrations, only for him to bring it for inspection and I realised car has been bashed.

He came up with a stupid excuse, but I'm not taking that shit! Hence my resolve to seek a better responsible driver.
Maybe he was playing with you. Plz don't take nonsense from any drivers. If your car is in excellent shape, you have the right to lease out at the best rate possible. A tokunbo or grade A should be around 35k to 40k a week o. A camry like yours should be 35k and nothing more. The reason is because it's a 2.4 liter engine. Don't let any drivers push you around. If they really want to work, trust me they will. I have lock up few drivers and also seize their phones. This is want a driver did to my car, it's either driver or mechanic fault I don't know. Shine your eyes either way

This is just those favoured lind of trips like that of Dave onoja when he went travelling overnight on the island.in this case this looks like a ride that started this morning likely from lekki axis when surge was minimum 2.1 and likely to have increased and the rider probably booked the ride the whole day that is why whatever you do on Uber always target surge periods and aread as much as possible.For me going forward monday mornings i must chop inside that surge before going to work.just from freedom park to V.I this morning i chop 2k after a 2k trip to V.I from Anthony..Nice one bro...God bless your hustle.

So how many hours a day did you think bill Gates, Warren buffet, Adenguna and other billionaire put in a day? You lazy ass bum and good for nothing peasant. So you prefer to be sitting in an office for the rest of your life. Making peanuts, coz your lazy ass can't do 15hrs. Even if you do 15hrs a day, are you going to do it for life ? There is life and there is hope. When you are in old age and you can't even afford the basic things. Yes there is life and hope. When your mates are retired and jet flying to Miami for vacation. There is life abi. So you want suffer twice abi both on earth and on the aftermath.
I weep for the future of Nigeria, if this is going to be their thinking.

For your information, I drive my own car. I do only what is realistic cos I’ve realized that health is wealth.

I heard u saying driving 15hours daily will give 160k, I never knew u have a calculator for uber. My friend, pple wait in LEKKI for 90minutes now before request comes. It was never like dat before. The only days u get back to back requests now is on weekends. Stop sitting at d comfort of your home and be calculating what happens on d road. U base ur conclusions on what drivers post on nairaland, but what u don’t know is drivers won’t post d days they didn’t make enough.
Health is wealth for broke people . You better hustle now boy. You don't want to be 60yrs broke and become a liability to yourself and your loves. Hustle while you are young. Health is wealth at your age. Imagine if the likes of Dangote, Adenguna,and the rest of the Nigerian billionaire were shouting health is wealth at their young age. Do you think there will be were they are today. And punk ass buster like will now get envy and complain that they stole money etc . You better hustle now while you can .. Shouting health is wealth... you lucky I don't known your girlfriend ...I will take the bitch give a good time . Have her call me big daddy and send her home to you when am done . Punk ass

Bro something seems to be wrong somewhere and maybe you need to sometimes move around like now tomorrow morning i expect you to wake up by 5.30/6 and set a destination trip for Lekki/ajah and from dere utilize the sure 2.0 or more surge be cos its the first monday of the month.but beyond this if i may ask what are your confirmation and cancellation rates like if confirmation is below 90% your requests would reduce same if you have high cancellation rates of about 20% or more you will have issues so this is it.Target confirmation of minimum 90% and cancellation of maximum 10% and you shud start getting more requests from dere..hope this helps but also like romeo said dont just sit in a spot after about 10mins change location and always target where you will most likely get rides e.g from Ogudu always target shoprite or Allen and also keep an eye on Airport too..
Bro say no more...... People don't want to work or follow the thread. Gazzuz gave example on how he made just three trips with 10k. If the market is really flooded why surge every morning. Well you try hope people will listen

I have a corolla I gave to a driver and another corolla I drive on weekends aside having a 9-5 pm job, I am not a lazy driver, it's such a shame that a lowlife like you think that travelling outside the country and hustling makes you a made man, I pity the womb that carried you for 9months, just being outside the country does not make you exposed if your thinking faculty is deficient in the required nutrients, Like i said earlier I have 2 cars in uber which migth not be up to the number of sub-standard cars you have but my investment is not in uber alone, you are so childish that you can't see beyond your Michael Jackson plastic nose , I have learnt from the likes of carshopper , gazzuzz, Romeo, ogunvic and so many other frequent contributors on this platform because am a good listener and appreciate people than know better than me but as for you I beleive a cadava is better than you
Your masters need to teach you better. So what have they thought u . They should have advice you to change your name. There is power in a name someone calls you or you call yourself. Continue calling yourself slavemerchant and you will continue to have two cars on the platform. GOD WILLING BEFORE THE YEAR ENDS . I WILL HAVE 10 cars or more. You slave and if am nice enough I will let you work for me . You are only worthy to wash my fleet of cars

Stating the obvious. Neocolonialism in disguise. In any case, the power truly lies with the Driver Partners. They should make the best use of such power
Power lies in the hands of people that use their brain. Powers lies in the hands of people that are willing to ask questions. Power lies with people that mingle with people that are successful.

Guy, you are getting it wrong. The fact that someone told you he made 68k does not make it a regular occurrence. He should consider it as the miracle of the month for himself because, apart from being a rider, I am also a part time driver partner. And I also know dozens of these Driver partners and I interface with them regularly; so I know their pains. You can even do your own research on this matter.
The work is not easy, and the only way for these people to be committed and comfortable doing this job is to look into their grievances with the hope to correcting whatever they feel is wrong otherwise, it is a case of monkey dey work while bamboo dey chop. Period!
My brother my brother. This is another example how the rich mingles with the rich. Maybe better yet , the ones that don't known ask questions. Now if you really wanted to do it and help yourself. The first thing you would have done is to ask questions. You could have easily say, Mr. Man this your guy that did 68k in 4days can you give me is contact. So that I can ask for advice. It cost you nothing bro .

Now back to the matter. My guy that made 68k in four days. He has been a uber driver now for almost two years. He tells me it's not like before. That you have to move around, he said he has a plan . I spoke to him this morning, he said there is surge now on uber as he speaking to me now. But his car is down. He even told me one guy posted on nairaland that he is Vi now no request at 9am . He said most people would have been in the office now. He now advice him to drive towards landmark venue. There is always an event there. The driver proceeded and he got a request. Bro, ask questions do your findings. Don't be lazy bro, think seek for answers ask questions. Don't digest what people tell you without doing your our research. Move with people that are doing better. Ask them what makes you succeed

I've not driven on uber/taxify since this year. I've been busy with other business. I still read comments here and i hv some uber/taxify friends who keep me posted. I learnt request has drop drastically. I know it will come to that and even worst. Uber started very well. 2006 cars with exam b4 u can drive on uber. Taxify came, uber became scared and drop cars to 2000 model even d exam people now write for drivers. Taxify collect any how drivers once u can drive. The standard is bastardized. Taxify don't have standard at all. Gone are those days when u see graduates and A'level drivers on uber platform. I hope they bring back that standard b4 it get worst.
From what I got drivers need training. Most just position themselves in one place . Do you belive that there is surge rite now as am typing. Drivers need to plan. It can only get worse with bad cars or bad rating

Good for you bro. The word bastard is not a bad word now. It means a person that does not have a father now abi. So if you look at it. If you look at it , your father gets old and dies at 100 years old . What does that make you ? You are a bastard now in that context.
