jimihendrix: Good Morning Gazzuz and Kingreign , i want to buy my first car, my Budget is 800k, someone is offering me a clean honda accord (Baby boy) I4 engine, Automatic transmission, leather seats and some other good features. Honestly i have never considered honda when window shopping for cars, because all the ppl i know that use honda cars complain like mad. Please which car can i afford with this budget? PS. The guy selling lives at ogba and i am suppose to head there to inspect the vehicle with my mechanic (am yet to get one) who will also scan for any internal error. Please your feedback will be very helpful.
MY BBM Pin is 559043f5 , Whatsapp-08061303796 Yusuf is my name. my workshop is close to ogba, bring the vehicle and I will inspect for free. |

magicbrain: NEVER! I have suffered a lot lately from a mechanic who I suspect has been doing guess work with my car. I presently no longer enjoy driving the car.
Issues include:
1. Transmission - my gear select when it feels like 2. Constant vibration of the car once I put my leg on the accelerator; vibration stops once I take my leg out of the accelerator(This particular one started after i change my shocks about 2weeks ago)
3. My car seems to lose power when I make a 90 degree direction change like joining a major road from a street.
Oga GAZZUZZ kindly assist in anyway you can.
Anyone knows where I can scan my car within sapele? have the transmission scanned. By the way what car is it? |

I need it urgently as my Honda accord 2000 model has been giving me serious headache. Gear only select at will and this has been on for over a week now.
I reside in Sapele, Delta state. luvinhubby has a lot in stock, but before you get disappointed have your vehicle scanned for transmission codes |

blackfm: I have a situation please, my radiator cap was opened for top up this morning an I forgot to cover it after. The car was driven from ajah to Lekki and back for church. Was heading to the mainland frm ajah about 1hr ago when I noticed the temperature gauge was in the red zone so I parked. That's when I saw I didn't replace the radiator cap and its lost. I topped up with water and continued my trip keeping an eye on the temp gauge. The gauge was in red again when I was on carter bridge but it went back to normal while I was looking for a safe sport to park. Same thing happened like 4 times before I got to home. What does the gauge fluctuation mean? Should I be worried? NB: radiator cap will be replaced tomorrow [color=#0000]just saw this, how did it go this morning? We're u licky?[/color] |

tyre pull on any car is part negligence and part substandard hoNda suspension parts sold in the market. I often advice clients to buy tokumbor parts (upper control arms,lower control arms and joints) they last longer than the crappy new parts in the market. |
Car Talk › Re: 2006 Hyundai Sonata - Should I Buy It? by GAZZUZZ(m): 9:20am On Apr 11, 2016 |
raayah: Hello,
I am thinking of getting a used Hyundai, it has a pretty high mileage (230,000km), but I do not plan to use it for more than 3 years. I have a long commute to work ( 3 hours back and forth) and just need a car to drive to work only.
The car is only 200000 naira and everything seems to be working well, when i went to test it. Should I go ahead and get it as I am not used to buying old cars. Are there any problems that may arise from driving a high mileage car? unless it's a gift, do not buy. |
Car Talk › Re: Help Gurus. 2011 Toyota Camry AC...... by GAZZUZZ(m): 9:17am On Apr 11, 2016 |
yinkkistic: Hey gurus in the house, I noticed my AC doesn't work when I put on the car, it only does when I'm in motion. Now it has finally stopped even when in motion. What could be the problem? possible from low charge to no charge (check for leaks)
Possible from failing compressor to dead compressor (replace but test before replacement)
A.c requires proper diagnosis before any part is replaced. Don't throw money away, get a good a.c technician that can diagnose properly before replacing any parts. |

castroevans: Mr Gazzuz but same can't be said about tiny light despite bin 1998-2001. At some point back then, they were on head-to-neck in comparison (Tiny light and Baby Boy) with the tiny having an edge but right now I think Time has set records right. Op, I also noticed that too but I think the front leg pull out played a major role but aside that, it's also a good ride if well maintained. you are right, the tyre pull was a turn off. But still toyota rules when it comes to parts (toks and new) |

ebrahym: The check engine light isn't on sir, I only have VSC and ABS lights on...
Please what do you mean by "diagnose these problems"? I thought that was where these codes came from...please enlighten me the scan codes thrown versus the problems mentioned do not match up.
A lot of variables could cause slugishness.
1. This scan result was targeted at ABS/VSC/TRC not powertrain. Since you said your MIL light is not lit, then we can rule out a misfire. Check the following.
Rescan powertrain. If no codes check
1. Fuel pressure(fuel filter, fuel pump) 2. Dirty Maf 3. Blocked catalyst.

Car Talk › Re: Any Difference Bwt Factory Tinted Glass And Tinted Glass Permit? by GAZZUZZ(m): 6:24am On Apr 11, 2016 |
edonbeta: NLs
My car is not factory tinted glass but has this tint at the back only which serves as sun shield and drier.
I obtained a permit, the permit said factory fitted tinted glass permit. Is that permit not sufficient? A policeman stopped me and said I should have collected tinted glass permit and not factory fitted permit since it is not factory fitted. I said, but your office wrote that English. The Policeman said I should buy fuel for them.
Please advice me. remove it an install a sun visor. The rate at which you are going, you will buy lots of fuel for olopa.
