Dear car gurus. My toyota highlander overheated dis morning as i saw smokes coming out frm my bonnet. I pulled over nd opend my bonnet only to discover dat water in my radiator was really boiling dat it threw off d radiator cap nd d full water in my reservoir dried up. I'v only driven 5 mile b4 dis happened. This has never hapnd in 3yrs v bn using vehicle. I called my kazeem nd he suggested i remove my thermostat to save cost nd stop d overheating or i shud change my follow come radiator to double cell. I'm confused on wat to do d reason i brot dis matter. I'v driven ds car for good 3 yrs nd v bn using coolant, synthetic oil. Cc: GAZZUZ, obekediamondfuto, thebigkendo, Radautoworks, mayor2013, AutoElectNG etc
someone forgot to place the cover on your radiator. no matter how hot an engine is, the pressure cap will never leave it's installed position if locked properly in place.

currently you Might Might be able to escape with a slap on the wrist. Just pour water into the Radiator and continue driving, if after 1 week you do not notice any misfires, or buildup of oil under the pressure cap, then drain the water, and install toyota coolant.

good luck.

I guess the main beneficiaries of the present e-hailing state are those driving his or her own car.
Drivers on rental packages will find it really difficult at the moment.
Investors need to be patient, smart and sometimes rugged.

Well said! The prospects for other functional Seaports in the Southern part of Nigeria was killed due to political sentiments.

It's quite unfortunate, Nigeria is yet to come to realization of the truth that no nation can attain sustainable development without a defined economic plan devioded of sentiments!

Nigeria can only make meaningful progress when we learn to separate POLITICS FROM ECONOMIC PLANS (DEVELOPMENTAL BLUEPRINTS)!
This arrangement will help exports, Very few business men with a time frame will wait for their cargo to get to plateau state, they will rather go clear it in lagos (at a reduced rate due to corruption) than in this new place where everything is monitored.

E-hailing business is Presently Unpredictable. As an investor, you cannot forecast with accuracy. There are too many things that could go wrong.

machine failure: Could be as a result of bad roads, human error, negligence, etc. this could set you back days, or weeks depending on the type of vehicle.
newer low mileage vehicles are often more reliable than older vehicles. A sound Drivetrain, suspension and air-conditioning are essential. Some Toks cars come with rust, some come with sludge in the engine, not every vehicle termed Toks has a good vehicle maintenence history.
In the cooler months like now, a driver can work without air-conditioning in the early hours on the morning and at night or even when it rains, but not possible in hot months driver will be axed after a few trips.
Dead cars (term used to describe a Nigerian used car with numerous problems) usually have more down time due to failure, It is best to do preventive maintenance accross all major sections of a vehicle before it is placed on Ehailing especially if it is a dead car. Eventually Every car will become a dead car on Ehailing. cheesy

Wrong type of machine: It might sound funny, but there are certain vehicles that are not suitable for the Job right from the onset, and will continue to have a lot of down time irrespective of how much you put into them. E.G peugeot 407, Nissan Primera (argue with your keybaord) There are also the Vehicles with 2.4liter engines, 3.0liter V6 and the BMW's with the 1.8liter engines, investors with such will always be jumping from 1 driver to the other.

Accidents: This could happen to any driver. one of my very good ex driver once messaged me that a door flew off a moving bus and missed him by a few inches, it got the bumper, but very mild damage. Another Owner driver on this platform has receiver a total of over N980,000 accumulated over a period of 6months From insurance due to accidents (Bad market for insurance). Depending on the gravity of the accident, and the type of insurance company you deal with, this could set you back days, weeks or months.

Fuel Scarcity: There was a time most drivers had to park their vehicles due to shortage of fuel.

Driver Failure to remit: This one is very complex. Drivers are human, and if you have ever sat behind a wheel and driver 12hrs straight only to make 13k (before fueling) you will understand the frustration in Ehailing. there are bad days and there are terrific days. There are hardworking drivers and there are lazy drivers, there are smart drivers and there are dull drivers. I will advice vehicle owners to give drivers a 1 week break every 8weeks to ensure efficiency. Since I am talking from the standpoint of an investor, I will stop here.

E-hailing policy changes: The battle for price supremacy between the major players in the game Uber/taxify has lowered weekly earnings accross board. 6-12 months ago it hovered around 35-40k weekly, presently it stands at 25-32k weekly. I honestly do not know how uber makes a profit, I get a 50per bonus every week on my user app.

Lack Of drivers: Vehicle down time as a result of loosing driver keeps investment on hold until a suitable driver can be found. Some investors like my self will rather keep vehicle for 2months doing nothing unless a driver with good records is found. A good driver could also have personal health issues, and a good partner would have to wait for a reasonable time frame for him to get better.

Vehicle theft: corrolla Gang! grin That one even insurance will have to conduct a serious investigation to ensure there was no fowl play in the matter, it usually takes a while, but long term after a few months you might get guaranteed insured sum less necessary deductions. you might also find the car relaxing in ibadan, or kaduna after a few weeks. trackers can help secure your corrolla too, but with the way technology is moving, a tracker can be disabled without even touching it.


For now these are a few circumstances I can remember that make E-hailing unpredictable for an investor.

I see a lot of you calculating rental X 52 weeks.... Trust me it's more like rental X 30-35weeks the other weeks will sadly be consumed by one uncertainty or the other.

the original design for Ehailing was for vehicle owners to use in their spare time to make extra cash, what we have done in naija is to create an industry out of E-hailing, all young unemployed yuuts and underpaid Gradutes have turned Uber to the next best thing. In the beginning 2014/15/16/17 it was very profitable earnings of 50k per week (investor) was feasible with very little stress on vehicle and driver.

presently it takes a lot of out of the Box thinking (placing yellow taxi tag on top vehicle, and calling previous regular riders for offline) for drivers to make their 30k rental after fueling and still have 30k in their pockets.

there is a steady decline in earnings, and a steady surge of new vehicles and drivers coming into the market every day.

One thing about business and Nigerians is as long as we hear this particular business de move, we all jump into it. I made such a mistake too, I was buying 1 vehicle every month and some times 2 to place on Ehailing, I converted company courtesy cars to Ehailing. With time I learned the Hard way.

Ehailing Has come to stay, But with time it will be run Majorly By Vehicle Owners, and a few investors who have studied the market and provide out of the Box solutions (e.g electric/hybrid vehicles) I see a future where drivers will be on a shift/salary structure for a large entity that will own and manage it's own vehicles, Drivers will not have to search for riders, but be online for a certain number of hours in certain locations, pick and drop off riders without handling any cash, at the end of shift, take vehicle back to a designated parking lot and go home while another driver in waiting picks up same vehicle for his own shift.

I have sold a lot of my vehicles in the past weeks, and left with only 2 Vehicles now. They are really struggling too as tuesday payment has turned to Fri grin some times I write off their debts to ensure they don't loose hope.

Now a solution would be to further review rental, but if you look at the cost of maintaining a vehicle properly it would not be wise.

From an investors point of view Ehailing is currently a sinking ship.

The market is evolving, the market will regulate it's self, the winners in this Game are the riders, there will always be a willing driver who has not seen a good trip all day to take them to apapa, festac, agbaya, ikorodu, akute and all the Ehailing forbidden regions grin

Considering that I am on a budget of <500k and do not mind the age of the car.

Nothing less than a million.

Boss Gazzuzz,

I often hear a squeaky sound from the belt side of my toyota Corolla engine 2003 whenever I start it.

If I pour water on the belt, it stops.

My mecho said I should change the adjuster, I did, but the noise persists. He later suggested that I should get a tokunbo belt to replace the previous one, I did that and the issue is not resolved still.

The good thing is when the engine is started without the belt running, the engine works well without the squeaky sound.

Please help me. What could be the likely cause?

Or should I bring it to your workshop?

I will appreciate your feedback sir.

Thanks.
a component driven by the serpentine belt is misaligned stiff or incompatible.

If you had the foresight to scratch your car's VIN number on the brain-box before it was re-allocated to Ladipo market, you MIGHT qualify for a compassionate price discount, when you go to buy it back.

If you failed to mark that unit with that VIN number, then I regret to inform you that you should be ready to pay the full market price, with no considerations on offer by the seller.
You can only scratch the metal case, which can be filled off in secs with an angle grinder or the electronic board can be moved to another case and re-labeled.



best way to protect engine ecu in a corrola is to weld it in.
