I would love to buy this car by December

browncool:
I am not sure why Nigerians are mostly only focusing on APC and PDP candidates. We have young viable men who are far more competent than these old men also contesting for presidential position and untill we start clamouring for these young men to take the mantle of leadership, Nigeria could remain stagnant

Sir, Gazzuzz, you are a blessing indeed, I appreciate other experienced car techs in the house, pls, could u give us some examples of mineral lubrication oils that will be effective as per cars?
e.g, I use a Honda accord 2005 model, I am.presently bringing it back to factory order, but skeptical about the lubrication oil to use, something within was actually telling me not to use d manufacturer's recommended oil

Second question sir, what if the oil strainer is cleaned out and sludge removed from the engine, will it be able to accommodate d manufacturer's recommended lubricating oil?

Third question sir, forgive me of my inquisitive nature, will it be wise to flush d engine to get rid of sludge?

Hello Gazzuzz, I have this issue with my 206.
The car overheats only at idle. It cools down as the car moves but once I hit traffic or stop the car without switching off the engine, Bang! It starts to overheat. The mecho already removed thermostat thinking it's thermostat issue but overheating persisted. I will re-install the thermostat tomorrow though. The fan is working.
Pls what can be done to solve the issue. Thanks

Please house, I am scouting for a car to use for uber. 2005 camry is what i have eyes on for now,


Are there any specifics to look out for?
Does uber check mileage?
I understand the ride has to be clean but should I be thinking of body work even if its a few minor cosmetic scratches?
other things like sounds, smoke, etc...

This particular one i found drives pretty smooth
Though I had a mechanic with me that said it was fine, just asking nonetheless what to have eyes on.

One can never be too careful with Nigerian used vehicles...

I support this.. the drivers are dubious and fail to use good opportunities on a rental car.. I drive mine after hearing lots of complains and regret from friends who gave their car to drivers .

I made over 100k in three weekends, my very first month as a newbie... only drove weekends fri-sun. Makes me wonder why drivers on full time can't make more than enough for themselves and pay up the 30-35k commitment without excuses. It's just not fair. If I would drop my car for 30k a week I expect the driver to make good use of the opportunity and meet their goals while keeping to their end of the agreement.

Please is Mitsubishi outlander 2003 accepted on uber/taxify

kcbaba007:
Gazzuzz and other car tech gurus in the house, I appreciate your eye opening works here, I HV been greatly oriented, in fact, I have been taking notes, anyways, gazzuz, you have not answered my query on the other thread " when it's time to return to factory specs" your answers will be a big enlightenment to people that eventually bought naija used cars and a caution for people with toks cars. Auntie Radu, I love ur guts, for a woman in a highly male dominated field... It is challenging. Kudos

Thanxz, meanwhile, I am about to get a cheap Nigerian used Yaris with the intention of changing its engine. I want to use it for uber. Is this a great idea?

And advice, opinion or suggestions?

Stealth100:
Chai! I tried this once, I didn't make a dime from the car. Yaris is a troublesome car to fix.

Chechem:
Please Oga Gazzuzz, I greet you.

Please is 06/07 Civic a good buy. How is the maintenance cost if compared with 06/07 Corolla.

Thanks Sir.

timifakay:

Inception:

Readonee35L:
I also need the spiral cloak for a 2008 Highlander (code B1801)
It cost about $12 from america total of 9k with shipping.
Do you have an idea how much its sold here ?

Piyke:
Finally, he paid for my Uber home!

Gazzuzz I'll like to say a very big thank you. More power to your elbow and may your business expand the more.
You really came across as humble and committed. Well-done.
I hope you don't mind if I do some Oliver Twist in the future . Was like a kid in a candy store!

Was nice having you around sir, look forward to more meetings in the future over some bottles of water

Piyke:
We talked impact wrenches. I was still talking about a 400Nm Ryobi I plan to buy when Gazz pulled the 950Nm Dewalt (brushless) that he just got
Gazzuzz are you sure you don't want to sow that stuff to DIYAutoWorksNG Piyke?

Also gave me a tour of the shop.

This baby

Piyke:
Not so sure he's open Saturday if I'm not mistaken

I don't accept new jobs on SAT, just clear out the old ones

Piyke:
Truth is I gave Oga very short notice. I had forgotten I was Lagos bound and actually called him on my way to the airport! Graciously, he obliged my request. Game on!

Got to the workshop at about 2pm and met the man. All work bays were occupied with some vehicles outside. Gazz was fixing one part that I had never seen; just under the steering wheel airbag . Abeg Gazzuzz what's the name again?

Blaksheep:
Morning house. Oga gazzuzz.
I want to purchase a car and I'm thinking of is250 07-09, es350 08-10, c300 08-10 or ml350 07-10. Beleive me I really want the Benz but Sars wahala na im I dey run from cos I'm a young man. But what do you think of the above cars when it comes to reliability, performance and fuel consumption. I just want the best.
