mejai:
This is the reason I question those oil rating and oil change interval. Those oils are damn expensive in this part of the world. And Honda requires u change @3000km (by then oil percent is @ 5%). Then u are expected to Change the oil again?
Na wa o.
@Dru23, what do u have to say considering extended oil mileage/performance?
Can one neglect the oil reminder? ASsuming one decides to use extended Mobil 1, 5w20 or whatever.
I think in most cases u have to manually set the oil reminder to whatever time u want to change ur oil.
Now for Infiniti 2011 .. I manually set it to remind me to change oil and filter every 7k miles... So cars that are lower than 2011 models, I don't how such works for them . but I don't think any car can tell you automatically when your oil is bad or needs changing. But I know if your car is running very and I mean very low on oil . The sensor will pick it up and alert of low oil .........

And I was tell people when using oil with longer intervals like say 20k miles oil . Always cut it into half and change it every 10k miles regardless of driving conditions . This is the method I use for my Honda Civic cars on uber. I change oil every 3months or 10k miles whichever ones comes first . And I use High grade filter

Aside my poor gs mileage,my manual compressor is working fine,8months nd still counting. Its common sense na,if your fans are double then na double cell radiator.
Let me use human analogy here.. My brother u see some people walking around and they seem healthy and fine. And because of that they don't go for their yearly check up .. but they are ok now and they look fit and healthy.....

My point here .. Just because the car looks fine to you does not mean it is actually doing ok .. Look at the danfo drivers in Lagos .. They look fine to you now Abi.

myhero:
My brother every car has its coins and pros and secrets. Many people here complain that infiniti fx35 always have electrical issue and I believe they say that out of experience. My advice based on experience if u want to enjoy fx35 is this, 1st once u buy it, remove that follow come key nob suck and chance it to normal key without nob suck. 2nd,make sure fuel doesn't dry up (I mean driving ya car till fuel finishes) this pushed dirt to the fuel pump. 3rd, make sure the catalyst converters are in good shape. 4th,use recommended engine oil which is 5W30 and its clearly written on the infiniti fx35 manual guide. At any time u change engine oil, change filter and pls make sure u avoid engine oil topping at all cost. Some mechanics will advice u to top oil but pls don't listen to them.make sure u buy original Belgium front linkages, don't buy new ones because if u buy new ones it will always break since the weight of that fx dey front. Bear it in mind that fx35 get weight ooo.. Use quality filter and lastly don't accelerate much ooo because fx35 dey speed like mad oo
Why is it every time we buy cars from the USA and it gets to naija we start changing and removing things? I tire o.... After all the thumb start key has been working perfectly fine all these years undecided Abi na our weather dey cause all these things huh

Hello, I hope to change my car next year. I am considering getting Infiniti FX 35.
Can somebody tell me if I will regret buying it? I need Advice.
It's a nice car I really love it .... My neighbor has the Fx35 s .. I don't know the year exactly my guess is at least 2015 model .....

Cars is all about maintenance and following owners manual.......

Have been a member of the Nissan/ Infiniti for years. My very first car was the J30 infiniti fully loaded and my second was the Nissan Altima ser . I bought it brand new.. Special edition it came out 2005 and 2006 only fully loaded with Sport Mode from the manufacture. Fun car to drive ......


Am now currently driving 2011 Infiniti G25x not as fast as the g35 or 37. But it is ok , maybe it is better that way. Coz me I dey drive fast on highway . most of my driving is on the highway..

Funny enough the g25x is the first car that I can say that I truly try to maintain. grin

kanuisagoat:
Partners in the house, how do you handle rentals from a driver who was unable to work because he was blocked by bolt.

The way I see it, getting blocked for whatever reason is totally avoidable and in my opinion, you have to be really careless to get blocked for whatever reason at all.

The driver wants me to waive payment for the day he was blocked and I have refused. Am I being harsh?

PS: The agreement does not say anything about being blocked.
If he has been constant with his payment u can waive it. if not collect ur car and wait patiently for a new driver. You have to keep in mind u are running a business and not a charity organization .......

This is a cut throat business and only the smartest and most shrewd partner will survive. You didn't come to Lagos to count bridges........


As a matter of fact 1 of my drivers will get a final warning today. We always have to remind him to make payments on time . After today's warning I will stylishly collect my car inform of an oil change. Na me and my mechanic dey arrange that.......

We called it operation OIL CHANGE... Once I say operation oil change and drivers name . my mechanic knows what to do . This is the most easiest method of collecting your car . you make sure u give the driver a long rope to pull before u do it.

In this business you make adjustment as you go . This is why I don't hire hoodlum drivers from these forum. I hire within my other drivers.

diportivo:
the write up is a figment of my imaginations.....while most of what is written down is true,your interpretation is your personal problem cheesy grin

feel free to add yours.......we gather dey










Gazzuzz


he is the genius,the main man,and the star of the show

he is very good at what he does,and he has shown countless times that challenge is simple a popular busstop in ibadan.
success comes with its own baggages and gazzuzz has had his fair share.fortunately for us all,he doesn't shy away from it and that make him the complete package

he is the only consistent mechanic on here,dishing our free advices at will,with a sprinkle of subtle giveaway,and a dash of humour  plus an i-dont-care attitude to go with it

while he mostly minds his business,he doesn't shy away from controversies and taking hard stances.is he consistent with his dealings?yes!!Does he deliver??Sure thing!!

little wonder he tops the list for 2021


Rad Autos

in an environment where men dominates her area of expertise,aunty radu as fondly called,has made her presence known and felt on nairaland autos and cartalk.pretty sure most folks on the uber thread have nothing but respect and adulation for her..it might seem.her sprawling edifice in lekki is enough to blow anybody away and to remove doubts from the sort of service you will get if you simply enter the place

while being successful has also made her encounter her share of controversies,she has shown that you can carry oyinbo mentality to lagos naija and still hold your own



Amdman

ask any keen observer and prospective car buyer to recommend a honourable,genuine and honest car dealer to you and amdman might just be the named obvious choice.with his cult like followings and his thread a mecca of sort,he will easily win any election he decides to run for by virtue of his nairaland goons who have stood solidly behind him all these years

he has succeeded in holding his own and carving a niche for himself with his cheap  Canada car deals,and remains the darling of a lot of multiple car buyers

he makes this list without any form of bias....and his work is appreciated




Calculusx


You want to be a successful middleman?When as soon as anybody  calls you to ask if you have a vehicle available,you won't need to think twice before saying yes?Just liase with calculusx and you are in business

some people are blessed in this car sales business.calculusx is one of them and it is evident in the array of vehicles in his lot.at least 2 active middlemen are on this same forum posting his cars for sale.Thats how nice he is.with success comes controversies and even though the Mexicans caused rancour some time ago,he is still going strong.A glimpse of the drone shots of his car lot will blow your mind away...no cap!!


Valarinz

carving a niche for yourself isn't easy.Selling a supposed unknown brand even makes it worse.But the hustling igbo man spirit has made valentine own the volvo brand sales as tho he drove the 244 back in the days

He will stoutly come to the defence of the brand and proudly so.He has earned a lot of admirers and critics alike by virtue of his passion for the brand

The yearly naija volvo owners meet up is something to be envious about...a genuine businessman,valarinz does his thing without making much noise,and he remains consistent



Legalwealth

He needs no introduction per se.After 2 failed attempts at buying his dream cars,a honda EOD without duty and a LAPO financed es350 that had transmission problems after he drove it round lagos for weeks,he took the bulls by the horns and decided to sell cars too so that others won't fall victim

without learning the ropes,or even doing small nwa boy,he christened himself a GCD (GOOD CAR DEALER),and even had a protégé then,promotervickky.Bbut they fell out inevitably(timifakay got the break up text in error then),moved his base from lagos to Abuja and has chased his passion since then

Not minding who's ox is gored,he has gone about his passion with vigour and tenacity,and you need to give it to him.Whispers from different quarters say he's into the business due to envy and spite and jealousy,but nobody can confirm that.apart from opening a website to tarnish someone's images,calling people on phone to threaten them and tell them what to post and not post online,starting a website using nairaland sections as inspiration,I think he is doing well for himself.Is he consistent?nope...but who cares really?The guy is doing well for himself and as well,he's scanning cars and detecting faults even tho he cannot hold T ten


Dru23

[b]If you don't know dru23 on autos/cartalk,you are not currant!!

he peddles his oil on his head without shame,and makes his money in dollars...case closed right?wrong!!

what started as an entry into the uber partner business has seen the business empire move from just supplying and hyping civics,to hawking oils,coolants,air fresheners,oil filters,used radiators(that have gone through rigorous testings on ebay),and occasional car deals

when he's not insisting that all car problems stems from the non use of the sort of oil he sells,he's usually busy selling bad camry to unsuspecting buyers.woe betide you if you cross his lane mehn....cos not only will he use non correlating memes to spoil ur thread,he will sell oil till thy kingdom come there noni

is he consistent??yes he is

is he good at what he does??it depends....

if its to peddle oil,he's number one....cos even if you say you have headache,he will surely change the goalpost to show that its lack of engine oil that has cause your headache

he claims to buy a 2005/6 altima brand new...but an uber partner said he knows his house in gbagada and that the alaye no fit drive

things dey occur[/b]












special shout out

olanshi

this guy quietly does his thing and he no dey too look uche face.I envy his mode a business a whole lot and his cars seems to move quickly

even when dollar never rise,his prices na die

if you get high blood pressure don't even bother opening his thread....baba no send anybody


trumpdonald

this guy na consistent PH car seller that places prices on his cars as tho its only wike that wants to buy them

I like how he doesn't make noise on his thread and he doesn't send anybody.His oga in that regard is chibecanglobal but we no see that one brake light again so trumpdonald it is



greggng

omo,if you wan sale your car,avoid greggng!!this guy is good at what he does I swear.post a car for sale and he will price it low,telling you how worthless your car is and how he's doing you a favour by wanting to buy off you.only you go say make he come carry am no pay money

but,try to buy a car off him and he start going on and on about how he has spent 10 years on nairaland and that hily ghost fire has consumed the e-rats that have been trolling his car advert threads.therefore,you must pay premium on his goods because dollar has affected the roasted corn business and blah blah

he's a funny and business like character.....he makes the autos section lively grin
