Story...na so one of my guy talk. Say every two years him must change car. I told him when reality sets you will give urself brain.
Things have changed o, economy don red.
I tot of buying Camry muscle early this year, I come dey reason say, so I go carry money for 3cars buy only one car?
When I considered 90k extra every week and driving a car that will even consume more fuel nobe person tell me which one to choose.
Before I go start to dey complain say na only dashboard my money dey show
So my brother spend wisely, if u have money increase your fleet or u invest in your farm again, no go dey look estate they day-dream.

SamuelTaiw0:

Crvrider:
Sometimes when people complain about issues in their cars i silently say to myself, thank God it's not me. But the hard truth is that e go touch everybody one way or the other someday. However, why am a bit sceptical about the leak being internal is that the radiator does not loose water.

kodred:
I no know o brother I no follow the story then. why you buy am come convert am?.

kodred:
I no know o brother I no follow the story then. why you buy am come convert am? Compared to the 4matic version, wetin be the difference? Seriously thinking about it.

deedee44:
Make I do like you today From my own perspective, the moral of the story is once you choose XHP, stay loyal to XHP because it's like a blood covenant. You break the covenant you pay dearly

SamuelTaiw0:
Mo like C230K yen pa.. Pass the senior W204 sef...

SamuelTaiw0:
My own opinion... Buy C230k
C230 without a compressor is a 2.5L V6 engine. It's a fuel guzzler. But if you go for C230k that one has the 1.8L inline V4. I advise you to go for the C230k over C200 and C180 because it's the last set of W203s that has a Kompressor (super charger) it has refreshed interiors and better alloys. Anything apart from that, it's the same as the C180 and C200.

C180s and C200s were made from 2001 to 2004 while C230Ks were made between 2004/2005 to 2006...

They cost almost the same price...

Na why you Wan kill me?

I tell you say na 4k I no get?
Oya pity me and help my life.

No amount is too small, make I take buy sterilizer rod.

SamuelTaiw0:
Nah calculation o.. Respect my boss..

So I went to check the blue Elantra I posted here last week on Tuesday...

The owner has issues with the shocks and some bushings (the shocks were very bad and he wants to replace them) plus he had a crash with the bumpers and the driver's side has a very huge scratch (he said someone scratched it where he parked it at the supermarket) long story short, owner needs to do a lot of repairs until then..

So I started searching for someone else who could do HP or rental for me

I met a man who had an Benz E350.
The way he told me on phone, I thought it's the E200 Kompressor, I was happy but when I got there, it was E350 V6 engine, the type of engine in ML350...
He's ready to give it to me on HP but Omo, V6 na die.. I cannot put my head..

So like this I'm still searching for a car..

I'm going to check an '06 Camry tomorrow.. I wish myself good luck.

I greet everybody in the house. I'm learning a lot from you. Thanks

donfortune48:
That guy don suffer for ehailing hand.
3yrs on the platform, yet nothing tangible to show for it.
The Honda civic he managed to buy is not even helping matters.

He was even driving A Benz before joining e-hailing.
But now, baba can't even afford one, even if na Nigerian used of Felicity001's type of Benz.

I pray God elevate him through his YouTube channel and his other endeavors.

rapheal5:
lol, I actually live in Abeokuta i only come to lagos to hustle 3 to 4 days every week

Pearl1910:
U still having the issue?
Why do u prefer to change water pump rather than radiator. If water pump is bad u will not even drive for upto 1km before engine starts to overheat.
If water is drying up in ur radiator then u don't need a soothsayer to tell u either ur radiator is bad and leaking or the pipes are bad or water is leaking from engine. So if u change radiator and fix d pipping and problem persists then ur engine is g***.
If overheating is connected to putting on AC then it's a fan problem, but if and only if water isn't reducing from d radiator.

By the way, I tot u said it's only when u accelerate or climbing a hill that the engine overheats?

IMO.... that Driverpreneurs engine is g***.
He has changed top cylinder gasket, changed to double cell radiator, added extra fan, and added coolant still yet.

Crvrider:
Please kindly keep us posted here regarding this issue if and when it is solved as I am currently facing similar problem.

In my case: car temp goes up when ac is on but normalizes when off. Radiator reservoir dries up and once the water level goes down the temp starts to rise. I've had to change 2 radiator caps and a head gasket change with the hope it will solve the problem but no luck.

So, finally I was able to locate the agbede people that I was adviced I take the radiator to; this will be done on Monday...fingers crossed. However, if this doesn't solve the problem then water pump will be changed next.

...changing the radiator for me will be the last resort.

davit:
They still keep getting back to me via email.
I still want to believe this is a technical error.

Will keep following it up with mail before I take the next step. Thanks.

I hv been using mobil xhp right from time immemorial and when i started using the car for ehailing i started changing d oil every month due to what i learnt here abt xhp, as at then i make enquiry if i can change to synthetic but i was made to understand it's better to continue with d mobil but service regularly which hv been doing tho its tiring. After dec hustle i went for general servicing and we discovere they were sludge in d top engine so it was removed and cleaned with fuel with d sump, copled back, as we hv clean the engine na i decided to start using gastrol synthetic but it keeps showing oil light so they said d oil is too light for my engine, we flush it out and went back to my mobil and d light went off car went back to normal but the only thing i noticed after d clean up was dat my oil reduces doesn't get to dat second top gauge after some days replacing oil unlike before my oil never goes past d top gauge, fastforward to this incident car was running fine and smoothly until i saw d oil light blinked on 3rd mainland bridge before d car went off , we checked n oil was inside.. mechanic said d oil pump was damaged and couldn't pump oil again dat i could hv stopped immediately i saw d light blinking

BAZ001:
It’s better you focus on your electronic business and drive for 2days, once you get comfortable driving especially in Lagos your brains will not work well again.

If Na lie look at donfortune48 & gentlelife50 post on stabilizer linkage dem resemble person wey still normal ?

By d time Lagos kazeem and olosho riders finger ur brain you will need rehabilitation like CheerfulGiverr to come back to ur senses.

The only people that still confuses me are Felicity001, pope191 and pearl1910 they can act normal today and abnormal tomorrow.

But others like yeyegbami, donfortune48, Gentlelife50, and some others wey fear no go make me mention are no more normal... cruise all the way

Na whisper I whisper to u alone no loud am

rapheal5:

emadamysy:
Not that I am trying to invalidate your comment, How many jobs has those benefit you mentioned(gratuity, health insurance, pension) in Nigeria currently, unless your speech/comments are far from reality.

kodred:

ksmart027:
The man really Bleep up, abeg between c180, c200 and c230, which of them will you recommend.

Kpengla:
You people should be grateful to bolt for this heavenly opportunity they gave you o....sitting inside A/C from morning till night like bank manager but you still dey complain, very bad of you bro

northbird:
I think it's both, power steering oil goes down occasionally, and the whistling sound when you turn the steering. Steering is stiff when turning on slow speed.

Ladipo wahala too much....

kanuisagoat:
Same issue happened to a driver I know

Turned out that his account was blocked. I guess this is Bolts new style. No email, no in app notification, nothing.

He only got to realise he was blocked when he called them. Their reason? Someone reported that he used a longer route and increased fare.

He was blocked for two weeks or so before they unblocked him

Glithronix:
All advices taken, boss.
I've gained a lot from these your comments (plus the ones Bazo gave me).
I'm catching up on them.
But you are a boss, you own your car. we are still a rentee, have to deliver to the owner as stipulated. We look up to God to answer us, too.
I'm not marketing my electronics business yet, cos I've not balanced. Once I'm balanced, I will be carrying my business with me while piloting. My business needs marketing, but once I don balance well, I will start moving it.
I want to be using 2 days to rest for driving, using the 2 days to push my electronics business, but I'm not balanced yet.
Much respect, boss.
