It's a bleeping no refund policy with cars45...

I shld get the dealers involved arrested by next week...

They claimed the documents are still in the hands of cars45 and the car has custom papers and documents will come out after payment has been made... they are now asking me extra 60k for the custom papers claiming they were not aware the custom papers aren't available grin
The dealers were dishonest.
Cars45 will usually inform you in your enquiries if a vehicle doesn't have complete papers.

The dealers were only trying to complete a deal and so they must have told you stories.

Oga Gazzuzz,

Good evening.

I have a problem.

I noticed that my vehicle is just running down it's battery again it's own.

I've even used a battery from another vehicle and after running for a while, same issue happened.

What may be the problem or could it be the alternator is bad now ?
Meanwhile, rodents have been attacking my vehicle lately.

Could it be that some cables have been munched for dinner? cry

GAZZUZZ:
Calculation of wear and tear time for certain parts.

E.g

Oem sway bar links, 30k, life span (lagos roads) lifespan 3-5years. 70,000km

Good After market 7k, life span 1-2years. 30,000km

From this little assessment, you can easily deduce that the aftermarket is a cheaper buy (not factoring multiple labour payments)

Another example.

Oem Timing belt 25k 100,000miles

After market 5k 10,000miles max.

Not a good buy getting the aftermarket.

So it really depends on the part, the clients ability to spend on his vehicle, the risk involved in using after market parts, and the benefits.


Nice breakdown ,boss.

One more thing.

When you look at vehicles that were manufactured in early 2000s or late 90s which probably do not have OEM parts in abundance any more , what would be your advice to a client in cases of replacement of faulty parts due to wear and tear?
AutosRe: ASK GAZZUZZ by Durchmann(m): 6:52pm On Jun 29, 2017
Boss Gazzuzz.

I wanted to ask an opinionated question.

What's your rule of thumb for vehicle parts when replacing faulty parts?

Do you have a standard you use in deciding when to use Genuine, OEM, Aftermarket or used parts?

By Genuine, I mean the parts produced by OEMs but with the logo of the car brand on them.

I guess you know the rest as well, boss.

Sorry for too much question and grammar ni.

Hi boss.

Thought i should call but i felt that your opinion may also come handy for others.

Due to the annoying roads in the location where I live, I'm thinking of getting an SUV to take off much load from my car.

My thoughts are going towards the Ford Edge 2007-2009, Toyota Prado 2005-2008 or the Lexus RX330 2004-2007.

I'd like your opinion on these vehicles as they all have their pros and cons in my head and I've been having difficulties reaching a final decision.

Thanks in advance, sir.

What's your advise on both?

Hi GAZZUZZ

The ABS sign has been lit up on my dashboard since I bought my Toyota Corolla S 2010.

I took it to one kazeem who actually changed the sensor on the left rear wheel. However, the sign never left.

I tried another workshop but this time i was informed that the ABS module was faulty and needed to be changed. I was told that to get and fix a new one, it would cost me 350k while a fairly used one would cost 170k. Those figures are scary.

Is there a way around this or are these figures inflated?

So far, I haven't experienced any anomaly with my car though.

Please advise.
