says who?
I told you what I purchased is a 2az-fe engine. 1az-fe are meant for corrolla. 2az not common in the market.
If you know, you know

are you willing to take a bet on it?

adanny01:
That thread should not have been closed. Is there a chance it will reopen?

I couldn't wait to finish 2 paragraphs before hitting "quote" but got a shocker "Topic locked". Thought it was something i pressed, press back button on my phone then quote again before i realised what has happened.

Dropped a rider at the airport on Saturday evening. I saw 25-50 uber X ahead of you. I just laff. I turn my staring before I reach Maryland I just hit a trip to eko hotel.

Why will 50 drivers be waiting at airport at one same time?

they are mostly the airport Union drivers, they do that to frustrate Ehailing. They also make fake requests and cancel

Even the abroad you are shouting lots or people run away from dealership because they believe they are rip offs. Thats why there are lots of DIY videos online
People change Shocks DIY oil change is even very common.

You cant stop people from complaining because you feel its right to charge high. Even though I agree with that fact that Nigerians buy what they cant maintain.

This is why is support fuel subsidy removal. By the time you buy a litre at N250 you will buy smartforwo or Suzuki alto .

It's in the workings, they are just waiting for election to be over

mammanbawa:
Okay sir
Thanks a ton
Any idea on how much the OEM compressor of 2014 Kia Sorento V6 will cost?

mammanbawa:
I'm afraid no
I'll have to replace the spindles I think
Cos one of the mechanics said replacing the bushings at times is a fruitless effort
I had the same issue with my 406
Bushings wore out on my way home from the mechs
I had to change the arms
Anyways thanks

mammanbawa:
I did an overhaul around September last year
Changed all four lower arms (including the front arms)
I changed stabilizer linkages, rear lower arms (I thought the bushings are those round rubber stuff at each end of the lower arm)

Boss GAZZUZZ
I've been having an issue with my 2014 Kia Sorento V6
I'm tired of changing the rear wheels as a result of wear on the inside
Currently both rear tires have suffered excessive wear and due to financial constraints
I can't change them for now
So I opt for turning around the wheel with the worn side now outwards
The issue is the tires bend inwardly, I've changed the lower arms thrice now
And after a while
The tires bend inwardly thereby causing them to wear
I was advised to raise the car a little, I bought another set of springs and added them to the original ones which raised the height a little but the ride became unstable
Please I'm tired
What do I do?

Note: I'm a regular traveler and I ply through very terrible roads
Car was bought brand new in 2014 and never gave such issues until mid 2018

mat2lock:

oga please I am highly embarrassed. it is not all Nigerians that are scammers. ideas abound, but physical cash to prosecute may not be available. not everyone online are thief. some of us in this country still value our name

jarkbauer:
What small car with the best fuel economy would you recommend.

topsylee:
Good day Gazzuzz.

My Avensis 2007 delays before it engages DRIVE after parking for a while (say overnight). Afterward, it drives smoothly and will engage DRIVE readily without delay. Any idea what may be the issue?

For income diversification, I want to have a Toyota sienna car preferably from 2005 model upward for transportation - Kaduna to Abuja and backward daily. I am Usman Idowu Momoh Ohikere, a solar energy and inverter technician. Bearing in mind that contract/project is not an everyday affair, I therefore need this car so that I can driving it for transportation.

My proposal
if you have this car for sales, I can purchase it but with 12-15months total repayment.

Repayment plan (kad-abj-kad)
N5,000 daily savings x 6days = N30,000 weekly savings
N30,000 x 4wks = N120,000 monthly x 15momths = N1.8m

Additional expected income
income from any solar/inverter projects within the period

comfort line/collateral
- my personal house (3 bedroom flat fully fenced with the 2shops in front used for canopy/chair rentals)

- my personal car - Toyota Carina E

Suitable Witness/Guarantor - available

please kindly consider and touch my life for good

thank you.

please call/whatapp me urgently.

So I log on today and there a LOT of mud-slinging about pricing!! My question is a simple one.:

1) what percentage profit do you think it is fair for a mechanic/parts seller to make on parts?

2) how much do you think it is fair for a mechanic to make on labor?

I'll go one step further. Assume the part cost the seller and/or mechanic N1,000.

Aunty, my village people will soon come for you o!
