talk2odim: Thks for your responses. I appreciate. I read the link and tried to contact the expert but cant explain why my card payment was not being accepted. Just out of curiousity and for the sake of not falling inro qring hands do u have anyone that you can recommend in lagos to do the job. And how much would the compactible ECU cost...any ideas

abolore80: Check if the needle is properly fixed. If its okay, then I suspect your speed sensor is bad. But since you said your odometer is working, I suspect probably the sensors are two. Maybe the one that controls the speed is bad. Check your manual to find out. your car year model will also tell if its electronic or cable. if its cable, check if the cable is still okay but if its electronic, then the culprit is your speed sensor. A sample has been posted by GAZZUZ. Its usually around the gear.
Goodluck.

Ikenna351: Please, if you must buy a Nigerian used Lion, find someone knowledgeable enough on Lions electrics to inspect or carryout a PP2000 session on the Lion. Its used car, so we don't expect not to find few faults, which shouldn't deter one from buying. But with the kind of electrical abuse some people are dishing out on their Lions, you could end up with such ones.

If you stay in Abuja and could get hold of me, harass me until I make out time to check a Nigerian used Lion you are interested in to purchase. It will save you a lot of headache at the end of the day. Even if I am not available, find someone who can help you on that, especially those outside Abuja.

Why I am saying this is because of regrets I put some people through when they bring their Lions to me to find out the cause of their nightmares they just inherited from another Nigerian. There are some electrical abuse on Lions which I do find difficult to deal with due to time or even lack of how to deal with them. I mean, recently, I troubleshooted someone's Lion that as soon as you open the drivers door, the radiator fan will start spinning at high speed, with ignition off. I mean, the drivers door and ignition are now the fans trigger. Imagine how bad the wrong connection was and all these are telling on the BSI and injection ECU. The electrical abuse on the Lion was so bad that to even do Some checks with PP2000 on some of the ECUs proved abortive. And the owner bought the car in that condition, not knowing it was that bad. There are other similar cases like that I have lost count.

If you switching from Japs, please, Peugeot is not a Japanese car. You don't treat it anyhow or buy it anyhow. Like I have always said, If you know you cannot afford not to abuse a car, don't bother buying a Peugeot. Try another brand, because she will deal with you mercilessly until you deceive another poor person to buy it off you or scrap her.

b2212: I am selling my well loved and carefully used Toyota corolla 1999 model. If you are interested please call 08121086565.
Price 520K.
Mileage is low considering some of the mileages with which we buy our vehicles. about 122k.
nothing to fix. only aesthetics.
AC works fine but currently has a leak which my ac guy seems not to be able to fix or has decided to use to milk cash. so i have resorted to buying NGN500 canister of Gas which lasts about 1 month till i deliver it to the new owner(YOU).

Decent offers are welcome.
more pics to be loaded later.

arcis: Hello everyone,

Please the odometer of my camry 1999 stop counting and the speedometer also stop working. I just noticed the numbers are not changing. I traveled from lagos (129,456) to Ibadan but the counter did not changed at all.

Please what could the problem be? anyone have experienced this before? what can i do to fix this?

Thank you in advance.

kablooee: Thanks for the info, what bridge are you talking abt. Can you confirm exact location? For some weird reasons customs don't stop this particular vehicle, anyway papers are intact.

Ikenna351: One thing you can't take away from these wild animals is how fuel efficient and miles eaters they can be. Face their noses to any part of the country and gear them into action, consider yourself in your final destination.

Anyway, this thread is not for Lions.

Ikenna.

Bossforeva: car u used pls..

Siena: Are you kidding me??

Knock sensors do NOT detect the sort of knock you're thinking of. They detect detonation caused by poor quality / low octane gasoline, and retàrd the ignition timing, until the detonation ceases.
