Most of you fools have no brain,90% of u toxic idiots on here have no car,have never driven a car for months,neither have u ever had 15m in your bank accounts . So don't get pained ,u dumbo. Thermostat is only good for abroad and not Nigeria. The car u bought is tokunbor and not brand new,u r not the only person that has driven it before it came to naija. Ols remove the thermostat fast. Don't let quacks mess up your car.

A C300 for 8.5m almost definitely doesn't have duty paid. Even if it does, I would never recommend a C300. Crappy engine.

An ML for 7.5m is fine if it's in absolute tip-top shape.

my dad's still battling his own. Told him to sell it off coz I ain't sparing no 450k for anything. Thing doesn't enter reverse unless it has been driven some kilometers so he has to pack well to avoid gobe.

Cool story, but doesn't mean that generation of FX has transmission issues.

Please guys, what could you recommend between an RX330 06 and an RX 350 09.

I know the obvious reason is the year difference.
But are there other things/reasons one can consider in making a decision since they basically look the same?

The newer car is quite a bit better.

Car Talk / Re: Lexus Es350 2009 Or Honda Crosstour 2010 by HeavenlyBang(m): 11:59pm On Jun 27, 2022
Meh, the Crosstour is more of a wagon than an SUV tbh. Pretty terrible ground clearance for what it's supposed to be.

Very solid car, though. Unless your roads are completely messed up, I'd go with the ES350.

That your V8 Mercedes, go and scan the car and if you nor see cylinder 2 misfire with catalyst damage, as one of the faults, I will put 5k fuel in the Benz for you.

Hahaha ���. The 90k oil change consists of two gallons of oil at 60k, 2 air filters and 1 oil filter,15k, and labor 15k. Mobil Xhp is now 12k and many naija used japanese club members are now using API SD. Oil na oil levels. Let me manage the 2015 Range Rover.

I bought 2 editions but could not bring it to Nigeria in 1998 because we did not have the fuel for it and till today, we still don't have the fuel for Toyota Supra. My friend that bought the turbo of the Supra brought his own to Nigeria and the leaded fuel destroyed it. Have you ever driven a Toyota with turbo engine? They have been trying to build a twin turbo since 2000 for the Supra and it was not successful.

You really just say the most random, weirdest things. So, you're saying Toyota couldn't build a twin turbo engine? grin grin

Mister man, the new Supra uses a BMW B58, an engine that has been in BMWs since 2015/2016. People dey drive am for Nigeria, their engine never explode. Don't take your crappy Range Rover engines to be the norm with German cars.

I drive a V8 Merc. 18 months now and still going strong, never had a power train issue. Who dey listen to you go feel say once person buy car for Nigeria the car go spoil immediately.

We are all coming home to resolve this problem. Rangerover ownerships are not going through any hell. If anyone has not driven a Rangerover, he is going to hell with complaints. [b]You own an equivalent of a rolls Royce but with the ability to go anywhere.[/b]That said, we all know that you are advised not to mix different colors of coolant like it was pointed out by our Rangerover owner in the UK. Toyota coolant is sold for almost 5k à litre and it can never be recommended for any modern Rangerover. I once queried those guys that recommends Mobil 1 5w30 for Corolla and Kia Rio while Rangerover Evoque and Discovery sport recommends the same oil for these cars up till 2019. Practice, they say makes perfect. I used to change oils in over 1000 cars monthly and we always analyze the oil most times and our customers fidelity was huge. The testimony of the owner of the car is being put to the hotspot. I have fixed the car and it is no longer in my shop. We are looking for a solution to the failure of the V6 engine on a Rangerover. Any idea

Nonsense talk.

No they only came with a V8 N62

Most of them have an m52 straight six

With a few straight four n54

Pretty much everything you said here is wrong. The E60 M5 was a V10.

Maybe you're talking about the regular 5-series.

The 530i has an M52, the 535i had an N54, the 550i had the V8, the M5 had a V10.

Also, the N54 is a straight six twin-turbocharged.

hello guys, what's your take on 2011 lexus es vs 2015 accord v6?

cc nurey kingreign heavenlybang

Actually a great question. I think it'd mostly come down to personal preference.

Materials in the ES are better, stereo is better, ride quality is better, insulation and refinement are better.

Accord is newer, cabin tech is better, powertrain is better, design is better, driving dynamics are better.

I would personally go for the Accord. The 2016 would be a no-brainer, but the 2015 is very close.
