Avoid Nigerian Used Lexus, only if you know the owner directly and you have known the car since the owner has been using it.

I should keep RPM below 3000 grin
I suppose dey trek now undecided
Which kind advice be that. Do you know how slow 3000rpm is? Even in traffic, people will still shout at you.
Drove below 3000 rpm yesterday on the Lagos highway with Lexus ES 330 and I was cruising 120-140km/h…

Throughout he journey, I never needed more than 3000 rpm and no car overtake me

“If Car is healthy” you never needed more than 3000 rpm to attain your speed.

@ the bolded

Good evening Sir.. Hope the family are doing well smiley

Sir, please that naija used scrap Honda Civic that you bragged sometime ago about offloading on someone, is it part of the "naija used junk cars" you are referring to? huh

As a God fearing Christian Sir, do you think it is fair to undermine a market where you are a major player? .. Considering you specialize in offloading comatose Uber-abused Civics?
Bros, try Dey forget matter I beg… grin

Please I NEED HELP!!!!
I need help… whilst on the motion this morning, my car suddenly stop selecting gear(R, N, D)
My 2008 Lexus ES350 won’t move.
It doesn’t matter if I put it in drive, neutral or reverse.
The engine revs up in each gear..���

Switching off the ignition and ON it back to move(D) for some minutes which it will jerk forward , vibrates too and then stop selecting and the engine revs.

I NEED HELP!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!
Don’t panic, PLEASE SCAN


A junior brother of mine bought a tokunbo ES 350 lately. It happens that the car has no check engine light before purchases.(maybe they erased it)

But on usage he found out car rev HIGH before changing gears. Thank goodness the check engine light came on and after scanning, he found out it is a sensor in the gear itself. (Transmission temperature sensor or so.)

After fixing the sensor, his car came back to normal. I will attach picture of the sensor.


In your own case, you need to start from the minimal, before spending anything PLEAEE SCAN.

That way you are one step ahead.


DONT PANIC.

Try buying a pocket scanner…

You move from there

Check whether a vacuum hose was disconnected.
Asking respectfully: I thought disconnection of vacuum hose should bring Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire along with the whole cylinder misfire
Car TalkRe: Toyota Matrix 2005 Misfired On Idle by homeboy205: 11:20am On May 11, 2022
You sure say the mechanic never thief your Tokunbo coil for Nigerian used own…

That is the only explanation to all cylinder misfiring without any other code…

I bet he want to sell those coil back to you at the end of the day…

Car TalkRe: Need Help Improving My MPG Lexus RX 350 by homeboy205: 11:14am On May 04, 2022
I don’t use city drive MPG to judge my Lexus anymore.

Take it on the highway, reset the avg mpg before the start of the trip.. watch where it settles after the trip.

You might also have to check for sticking calipers

Since you use engine flush, all deposit has been wash down.

You never made mention of the car so far but I pray it is not 2AZ engine.

After all engine flush the sump needs to be open

megafox:
Good morning My people, to the Top Engineers in the House I have a question ❓

I want to change my Car Engine, TOYOTA HIGHLANDER 06 HYBRID.
The car uses 3MZ engine.

When I contacted a seller in Lagos on phone, he told me the 3MZ half and Top engine costs more than the other 3MZ used by other Highlanders.

I tried to tell him it's same, he said that Hybrid uses a different 3MZ. He is confusing me here. Abi he is trying to rip me off?

Please I need profs here to help me clear this.
Just curious, what happened to the original engine ?

Car TalkRe: Help With AC And Outside Temperature Issue by homeboy205: 12:15am On Mar 19, 2022

Anytime my outside temperature displays "--" AC doesn't chill. I noticed this few days ago. I initially thought it was AC issue.

what can i do?

It says 88F right now and AC is working.

but sometimes, I dont know what causes it to display two hyphens. And AC doesn't work.

LEXUS ES300 2002
autologic:
Ambient temperature sensor at the front bumper is faulty. Ac system need the sensor signal to determine the outside temperature so as to know the level to set the coldness of ac inside the cabin.
You don try this??
PoliticsRe: What I Saw In Bodija Ibadan: Afenifere's Intervention Is Needed ASAP by homeboy205: 6:15am On Mar 17, 2022
Entprys:
If beleiving that a certain tribe owns prostitution in Nigeria is a sin, then I was a sinner. I asked God for forgvenes after my visit to Bodija in Ibadan last week.
I stumbled on Bodija sex joint.What made Bodija unique is the presence of yoruba ladies in the business.
We barely parked car before one wearing hijab came to us saying "baba 'ko mi, bi e ba se fe si ni o'. Means "anyhow u want it o". I was like "where are we?" Then I asked her "what is on ground? She replied "e je a denu 'le". Means 'lets go inside.
My friend didn't want the chat to continue, he cut in by calling me and we went into the bar whch she followed us. I observed that all the girls in that particular club are yorubas. She told me she is from Modakeke and has spent nine months there. She told me that the place is call "tia n' tia"(means 'ours is ours'). Others may accept other tribes but 'tia n tia' strictly allow only yoruba girls.
I did not expect such place in Ibadan. The number of yoruba sex merchants in Ibadan is unprintable

Car TalkRe: What Is The Purpose Of Revving Car Engine For Some Minutes Before Driving? by homeboy205: 7:54pm On Mar 09, 2022
ogtechinc:
I grew up seeing people doing this act. They will rev or fire the engine to a certain degree until they are satisfied or feel that the car is now ready.

Are cars meant to heat up in the morning or after been parked for a long time before driving it?

Why can't I just start and immediately drive off?

Is this just a myth or reality?
This is the where thermostat comes in play
