radautoworks: Great to hear ma’am, thank you very much. Now the small detail of getting it down to Calabar. Also, do you by chance happen to know what this symbol beneath the park indicator mean? Was flashing vigorously this morning on My Tacoma - I am fairly certain I don’t have a scanner that can point me in the right direction.

Did someone compare a Demon/Hellcat to a f*cking hypercar made by Bugatti named after a Greek Centaur known for well... What do I know eh? 2 Likes |

cdoffx: Yep, looks dirty to my untrained eyes. Here’s what to do in no particular order; get a soft brush, disconnect the car’s battery, use methylated spirit (leaves no residue), besides I don’t like using petrol except as a degreaser. Also, you can be rest assured that there will be no moisture left on the connectors nor the insulated wires themselves. Reconnect wheel speed sensors, and obviously the Car’s battery. Drive around for a while, if the car’s computer triggers the malfunctions within 15-30 mins after your drive, then get original hella or bosch replacement parts. 2 Likes |
Car Talk / Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Eddee(m): 9:54am On Oct 28, 2020 |
cdoffx: There’s a connector for the speed sensor to plug into. Get that checked first, the location makes it very easy for dirt and other particles to make a home there. |

cdoffx: Scan and post the exact codes. Could be the wiring harness. Oh, If it’s actually the WSS that has seen better days then for the Love of God don’t buy toks or any Tibao nonsense. In short contact radauto.works, If she can’t get you OEM, the STAR clone will do. I am fairly certain this particular Chinese knock-off has better QC than her peers. |

Hazardfan1: Good morning bro, it's been a while. Great to hear you've made so much progress on that car's repair. Like someone else has stated above, let your mechanic check the gear selector - the mechanical fault is very obvious. Just ran a quick Google search and found this excerpt: "There will be no warning lights when the gear selector lever fails but there will be fault codes stored, scanning the vehicle with diagnostic tools will reveal these as selector lever position detection failed and CAN signal selector lever position. Common fault codes: P1856 – Selector Lever Position Detection Failed P240C – CAN Signal Selector Lever Position N15/5 Is Not Plausible" |

weyreypey: For a 1998 naija used MB? Why is he topping up exactly? And what oil has the former owner been using - original or fake STAR? The truth is you know exactly the proper advise to give but just like the Nigerian government you'd rather violence takes its toll on his finances first. |
Car Talk / Re: MITSUBISHI MONTERO SPORT: IS IT A GOOD BUY? by Eddee(m): 9:41pm On Oct 20, 2020 |
joa2013: A hub and a fuel pump are normal wear and tear items. The Montero is a durable workhorse. Imho, price is fair for the MY in question. Look for an independent expert to give you a true position of the engine (any car that's driven in Nigeria must suffer some form of abuse directly or Indirectly), the Transmission on those cars will literally go on forever but the engines won't. And they can be pricey. |

Car Talk / Re: MY MERCEDES BENZ PLATE NUMBER ISSUE. by Eddee(m): 3:42pm On Oct 18, 2020 |
damidre: Wrong, I moved plates from my old car (A benz) to another this year. Paid 18k in total (inclusive of everything). Okay, I had to add "small thing" later to collect proof of ownership because of delays due to COVID-19. The plates belong to the former owner, let them settle amicably. N.B: paid 40k for new Abuja plates for the same Benz

HeavenlyBang: Senior man, anybody that can afford an almost current gen Camaro/Challenger won't have problems with parts availability - as long as it's not a daily driver. Radautoworks go sort am out. Personally, I'm leaning away from Sedans. Next year na farming season so it's a truck I'll be in the market for. Run that ATS abeg make I see whether boys go reason am, it's a proper all American muscle for me. 1 Like |

radautoworks: Herein lies the challenge. For example the stealerships here are just rebranded kazeems. I remember my ordeal at the hands of Mandilas, Calabar for an ordinary Lexus IS. I doubt with that kind of attitudinal disposition towards effective repairs they will break-even without having to rely on sharp practices. radautoworks: Abuja is a given. Lovely place with less tax intrusions as Lagos, and actual people who can pay to fix their cars properly. P.H is also up there, plenty servicing firms that can be pre-qualified for long term framework agreements in respect to their vehicles repairs and maintenance. Enugu has a lot of dealerships already. Don't know much about Ibadan, been there once. Oron-Ikot Ekpene-Eket all have lots of millennial millionaires courtesy of Oil drilling and servicing firms too who will always converge in Uyo. It's a very small and linear state, which means one dealership in Uyo is within an hour reach of most of your customers. 2 Likes |

9icetoo: Very valid points chief. After P.H, Uyo has my money - not even Calabar apart from the sentimental attachment. Enugu won't do badly either (they have dealerships ranging from Mercedes to Kia), but Uyo shows promise. Just like Calabar they have some stealerships scattered here and there but Uyo has the top mulla. 1 Like |

erico2k2: We wasted a ton shit of money on a club last year (haven't still recovered from that financial loss). I'll make a case for Calabar and Uyo (leaning heavily towards the latter), assuming the cost for franchising falls between 10m - 15m? Not even looked at equity and or working capital?
