En! Looking for plane inside Uber thread?

I think British Airways does oohgrin
but you should know that Uber driver's takes riders to airport often.
And just like okada riders, you guys knows everywhere and almost everything whithin Lagos, just as you can tell more about the current state of 3mb... I have not passed there this year but you may have passed 3 or more times this year, so you have more information/knowledge than I do in that system.

That is throttle body position sensor gone bad and the signs you are getting is quite right like Common signs include lacking power when accelerating, rough or slow idle, stalling, inability to shift up, just get a mech first to get a carb cleaner to clean the Throttle body and put it back and test drive, or just get another one.


But there is this VTC that actually throws up this code once in a while. Just try d first 1 out and get back to me
After spending close to 30k yesterday, the simple solution you stated here worked. After cleaning the throttle body, the car started working fine. Drove it back to Lagos without any further issue.
God bless you bro

My car jerks when I accelerate, I brached to a mechanic shop and he said it's spark plugs and we changed it. It started just about 3 poles away when I left the shop in onitsha. I managed the car till asaba( maintained 40k/h as you can't go beyond) another mechanic worked on it till it refused to start. We got rewire to work on it again till it started and I left with the car still jerking, went to another mechanic who confirmed it's fuel pump, he changed the fuel pump and it continues, I wanted to manage it to a nearby hotel to sleep but it quenched on the way and refused to start. Please what could be the problem? Supposed to be in Lagos now but still in Delta State.

Bros see in this life just be praying for connection and to at the right place at the right time, before I used to think like you that everybody is broke.

Some people have this money and are ready to spend it, I will share another experience I know you won't still believe it.

A friend, we stay in the same place was traveling to his town.
I had to join because I knew it was going to fun, we go out together a lot almost every evening to wind down.
As usual he threw the keys to me so I had to drive, there's this his friend a developer that traveled with us too. He parked his car in my neighbor's compound and we drove my neighbor's small car, the other paid for our accommodation and all the food we are throughout the three days we stayed in the east.
Mind you he have a mansion ooo but he wanted us to have fun, on our way back this man bought all manner of things plantain, garri, yam and what have you.
I am still struggling to finish my own share of the things we bought I had to give out the plantains so they won't spoil, the garri and the yam is still here.
My neighbor gave asked for my account number and transferred 25k, he said he enjoyed the trip that we are going again next month that's this December I just said okay but I know I won't join them again. Lol.
I didn't expect him to pay but he did, my own was to use the opportunity to do small travel.
Forget things dey happen
Waoooo, that's Good.
But you told us how all of them spent but you forgot one... yours

It is the level of anyhowness that allows fraud in the country. If the institutions are well strengthened to check corruption, people will think twice before engaging is fraud. The northern lady paid, not because she was willing but her details were already leaked to the public which were enough to check her.
And one guy will come and tell us that the northern lady really didn't have the intention of making a away with driver's money.

Just as Deedee44 affirm, she does not have any money presently to pay, I strongly believe that too, did she embark on d trip wit d mindset to cheat Mr Kamikaze42 lyk Oyinda? Nope! Did she make a transfer that failed? Yes! Was her bank account hacked? I honestly can't tell, but I won't judge a human outrightly and go as far as damaging her life all in the name of teaching her a lesson, in my moment of honesty, I mayb ashamed of my actions. She messed up big time, cos she could have done the right tin and not allow issue drag to this point, but we r all human, we live, we learn...

Back to my rabbit hole, got some personal problems I've been dealing with, the pain for justice brought me out. Peace I wish on everyone and those that misunderstood my perception, no hard feelings, the fact that we don't see things from same angle does not make one bad or wack #OneLove
Are you sure you are not leaving with her to have made you believe all this? NA JOKE OOO
But many (including me) believe she is a hoodlum for blocking the driver and again not talking to anyone us. I just think it would have been better if she calls driver time to time to assure him he will get his money rather than blocking him.
Frankly, she paid because you told her that her picture is online and we'll call during the radio program, so let's not paint it.

she paid because she had felt the heat not because she had in mind to pay and probably someone from here fed her with information on the implications if she refused to pay. It's still possible that someone here told her that we will call during the radio program (I feel so) You can't owe someone and block him for weeks if you have in mind to pay.

That does not change the fact that she is a fraudster "they don't know how to talk" who doesn't know how to talk? When I called he I just introduced myself and mentioned Uber driver and she hung up. Why did she block the driver in the first place? If you have bank issue don't wait till someone you are owing call you before you call or text him for more time rather than blocking him. She intend making away with the money but she is getting it hot now.

To every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. You need to get off ur entitled mentality, the lady in particular holds u no explanation, let the driver come out sincerely about what actually happen btw them and if it's worth it then you can crucify her.

She Maybe or not that stupid to have her info online and damn d consequence. What are talking about bro. The driver has told us his own story, I could remember reading it here about 2 to 3weeks back, he waited for weeks and came here to tell us again. What do you want to hear from him again? The lady you are indirectly siding hangs up when you mention the driver's money inrespective of who calls. If there is more to it she would at least tell anyone, I called her myself and other people did. I know you wouldn't be talking like this if it happened to you.

Let me help u wit free nugget dis morning... when next u r aiming to shoot someone down, think as twice as the person you are aiming at, make sure you've nipped the possible options they may explore or exit, before unleashing your arsenal on them.
I know you wouldn't be saying this if it happened to you bro.
The driver explained about 2 to 3 back and still came here yesterday to tell us. The girl you are indirectly siding hangs up whenever you mention Uber driver's money.

Felicity0001:
Okay. This topic was debated here some weeks back about which car is best I wanted to put d9wn something but something kept telling "hold it you're not ready yet".

So far so good I've use
1)Honda EOD V6
2)toyota Corolla 04
3)Honda civic 03
4) Toyota Corolla 2010
5) Toyota Corolla 03
Currently using 2002 Camry (big daddy)

Honda cars are fuel efficient, rugged, strong body and parts, if you're the type that love music Honda will serve you with good and quality sound, its engine is strong and has a long life spam. Beautiful interior. But you don't wanna be faced with dislocated arms while on the road. This is a common problem with Honda cars also with its power steering pump. That guy can frustrate the he'll outta somebody.

I usually buy 4-6k fuel daily using my V6 EOD then And could gross with 18-22k. These were my 1st days so the spirit was still strong.

Fuel consumption with the Toyota corolla and Honda civic is almost the same only that in a long distance journey the civic will save like 5-10ltr more than the corolla if all driving conditions remains constant. Another observation I have noticed about these two cars is their "initial". The corolla is a champion in that. It has the ability to move out of rest very fast than the civic but once the civic has gathered momentum on a long distance race it can zoom pass the corolla like a Ferrari. Reason for its lesser fuel consumption on a long distance and on the other hands, the corolla its good in traffic movement and manoeuvres just like the saloon 4matic Benz. You don't try that with the civic else trouble for you and other road users.

Now talk of parts. Due to popular demand for the corolla it has made it parts to be very expensive when compared to the civic. But on the norms with say 2016 Honda abd Toyota the Honda parts can be more expensive because these cars are known to be for some classes of people with flair and elegance. I may be wrong though but I'm talking from experience.

One thing about the corolla I dislike is that it's not spacious and the body is so soft that putting a child on top of the roof can compress the body. Dont even think of resting your body on any part of a corolla else you would need a panel beater and a painter's work...

To be continued
You are right about EOD, that's what I'm using. 4plugs though

My a/c was not cooling well, I took my car to a/c specialist who told me he needs to change compressor clutch. I asked him to change after which it didn't work, he had to change compressor and condenser, still called me that it wouldn't still be okay till we change evaporator, that he just found out that it's leaking and I sent him money. I went to pick my car on Saturday evening and on my way home the AC stopped working again, and the worst is that the car is overheating.

Car TalkRe: [b]daihatsu Hijet Vs Suzuki Every[/b] by hvac: 11:37am On Dec 06, 2020
demoman:
Suzuki in general has a stronger body than Daihatsu but that is where it supercedes Daihatsu. Daihatsu has a far more superior engine and underneath[ I. E things like camber, steering arm, tie rod etc] than Suzuki.
This doesn't mean that the Suzuki is a write off as I would advice anyone who wants to buy a Suzuki to stay away from the timing chain variant and go for the timing belt engine.
The Suzuki and Daihatsu both have turbo versions and I would implore you to avoid them like a disease.
They both can make long journeys daily as I use them for commercial purposes but it will be necessary to tell you to use high grade oils in the engine eg Mobil 1000,total quartz 5000, etc... Stay away from jezco, abro, AZ and their likes because they form slugges that clog up the very narrow oil passages within the engine and most importantly if you drive it everyday for like say 8hrs a day, it is expedient that you change oil like three weeks interval. Don't try to exceed this time intact its better you change it even before three weeks.
Hope you know that both of them also have the 3 cylinder engine and 4 cylinder engine.
I personally recommend the Daihatsu atrai7 also sold as Toyota sparky. It's 4 cylinder, 1.3litre engine capacity. Also stick to Manual transmissions because automatic transmission are a no no for commercial purposes.
You know everything about these two vehicles, you tabled it well

Been waiting for the opportunity to put this out there, but didn't know if you'd want me to or not ma.

I have been under your employment for about 6 months, and I must say, its been an amazing journey. Yours is the  kind that is extremely rare to find. You're not a part of them, you do not do things like them, you're different, you give so much motivation, love and energy to your employees, such that your customers and the world at large, could see your person through us.
Its been love from day 1, up until this minute.

Who keeps her chauffeur even though she's been out of town for a very long time? The young man just dey enjoy him (no)work. Maybe JP  for don fire am, one month before departure, with the intention of hiring another when he gets back.
He said to me today "bro, as a driver, I never get any reason to stay anywhere for two years, but since I come here, na so oh...na love oh, we are a family here."

You're approachable and infact, always there. You're so near, yet so far away.

All your employees, from RadAuto to RadRentals, to your domestic staff, are more than satisfied and they feel more than blessed to have you as their boss.

Your energy on the phone is contiguous, comes with an infectious smile, e go cheer even the saddest person back to life.

I'm grateful for the privilege to serve under your employ. You have my loyalty 100percent.

I see RadAuto taking over the automobile mechanic industry in the nearest future and I'm willing to continue to be a part of that success.

I do not think there are two of your kind.

I have read all your posts on this thread and today I'm going to address them.

This is why "Nigerian workers are bad". Bosses/owners make them so.

You obviously don't understand it costs more to find and retrain a new employee than it does to retain an old one. Same as customers. You obviously also don't understand what it takes to build LOYALTY and employee buy-in/ownership in your mission.

The companies that started fresh are struggling with new employees. Not to put my business out there but I made sure not to let ANYONE go during lockdown (even the ones I was thinking of firing before). I informed them because there was no income I could only afford to pay 40% and they were okay with that. How? FROM PROFITS WHEN THE GOING WAS GOOD. I prioritized their safety and opened later than other businesses. It was the that employees who insisted they would take the risk and go to work until they couldn't. THEY came up with a plan where they took turns running a skeleton crew. Why? I was thinking of them and in turn they thought of me. They understand we are a TEAM through the good and the bad.

During lockdown they did everything they could to stay open or continue doing business wisely. Guess what? EVERY MONTH SINCE SEPTEMBER THEY HAVE BROKEN THE PREVIOUS SALES RECORD and IN MY ABSENCE! They are currently posting numbers almost DOUBLE what they posted before all the katakata started. Their productivity is through the ROOF and my complaints/mistakes are the lowest they've ever been, even with the ones I was considering firing. I have been contacted by other frustrated businesses owners asking what I did to make my employees so loyal as they tried to poach them repeatedly and they won't budge. I just tell them I treat them like like to be treated. Even one of the so called "bad NL Uber drivers" now works for me and can testify to this if he chooses to reveal himself.

So please stop coming to this thread to insult and demoralize people trying to make a living. Create an Uber owner partner thread where you can criticize, insult and advice all you want and no one will bother you but savvy business man you are not in my opinion.

That's all the energy I have for your matter.
You are a real business woman not the one that feels like God. People that feel like God hardly succeed in business and I can say jpworld didn't just hustle to make money to buy cars he is giving people either on hp or Rentals, maybe he sold his father's land in village and came to invest it on the transportation business.

In that situation you won't see a visible leak when the coolant gets to a certain temperature they vaporize and leaves no trace the best way to get a leaking radiator or water pump mostly is to fill it up run the car on a spot for 30 to 45 minutes then ask SOMEONE YOU TRUST OOOO. To step on the brake and engage while still in drive let press down the brake pedal and you carefully inspect the radiator rubber packing round and Thermostat area then the water pump

Boss you will surely see it that way, cuz for you not to see it means the leak is still quite minimal and not in excess crack.

2006 Camry? Is this a big daddy or muscle brand? How many plug is the car? Kindly state your rental conditions for prospective rentee to know b4 putting a call through rather than wasting precious time and resources. because I'm surprise such a car is still in the market
2006( big daddy) is still in the market sir. Again, he doesn't need to state the rental conditions before the prospective partner will call him, it's not bad if it becomes what the two would discuss over the phone, and it's still not a wast of time even if the rentee did not take the offer after putting up a call... that's business, you must venture before you gain.
