Congratulations again.
Car Talk / Re: Changing Transmission Fluid On 2013 Honda Accord by idmoore(m): 9:55pm On Jan 31, 2023
tsiriman:
I got a 2013 honda accord some months ago. Nice car, i thought it drives ok but it has this shift hesitation sometimes's on low rpm but I thought it was normal because it was CVT and I've never driven a CVT before this car. I heard with CVTs you don't feel the gears changing but with this car I could sometimes slightly feel the gear change at low rpm, just a slight feeling.

I did little research and discovered that the slight hesitation and vibration at low rpm is not normal and happens to some people and they solved it with a CVT fluid drain and refill.

So i decided to buy 4quarts of Honda 08200-HCF2 Fluid which is the recommended CVT fluid. I watched how the change is done on YouTube and then headed to a filling station. I practically walked them through the fluid drain and refill just like I had seen on YouTube, I refused any suggestion or advice from them, I just instructed them to do as I tell them if they don't want to spoil my gear. I even refused to use their funnel to put in the new fluid as I didn't want contamination so I bought a new funnel.
They drained the fluid, removed the old washer from the drain bolt and used the new washer i bought, then filled the car with the new fluid. We put in almost 4 quarts then started the car shifted through the gears as specified in the manual. After that opened the check bolt so as to gauge fluid. When the fluid gauged and started dripping from the check bolt hole as expected of guaged, they tightened and cleaned up everywhere.
But I had to tell them every step just like I had seen in several YouTube videos, these guys go mess your car up if you no dey careful o, I was in the pit with the 2 of them most of the time.
Most people who did it on YouTube just jacked the car up but I went to a filling station so as to access the drain bolt on level ground. The reason I didn't do a DIY all by myself was Because I didn't have a pit and I didn't want tho use a jack.

After the change I drove the car and It drove like a dream, no low rpm vibrations, no hesitation, the best part is that it now drives like a real CVT as you don't feel the gears changing. The car is super smooth now.
Its just incredible how a CVT fluid change could bring a huge change in the way a car drives.
I will recommend people who have 2013-2017 accords or civics to change the fluid atleast every 20k to 30k miles, you'll be glad.


The most important part is don't leave the job to the mechies alone as they will mess up your car. Very important.

Nice update man.
Thanks.

Do you still use the car, tell now.

Infact, driving the car that long distance will make you attest to what you have bought.
I think most Nigerian likes short distance drives which makes our car engine unhealthy most sometimes, unlike the Americans that can drive cross country with their families.

Do you think Americans don't also that have insecurity issues along their border lines.
Enough, enough of insecurity issues along their border lines, but some of them still drives the cross country distances.

For me, I will prefer to witness a professional long drive on that 2020 Honda Accord having purchase a full cover insurance here in Lagos.
A long distance drive like that will make your car engine healthier and blast out your carbons.

Cars engines are not necessarily built for short or city driving all the time.
Long distance drives makes your engine healthier and in top shape.

Do you think, your HONDA ACCORD 30,000miles is only achieved through city driving in the USA, that's a lie if you believe so.
I can tell you that 30,000miles has cross the country like 2 twice if not more.

72hours to transport my 2020 Honda from Lagos to Abuja, I no sure say I go sleep for that 3days.

I prefer to buy full cover insurance in Lagos, get a well experience and patient driver and drive with with him, in less than 8hours broad daylight me and my car is already in my house at Abuja.

I love to handle such precious values myself, so I can account for it, I hate stories.

Trash as usual

Everyone as spoken well, as for me the cost to get the car to Abuja is not important but the safety of the Abuja should be the top priority.
I think I will get a well experienced and patient driver that knows the road terrain well and I will drive with him.
72hours is too long a time to commit my car to a logistics company at the middle of no where.

A well experienced and patient driver that knows the road terrain very well will avoid major potholes, more so your Accord 2020 shock absorber and brake disc obviously will still be at top notch.
Even my 2013 Accord absorbers are still gallant to the teeth.

This ride is one of the best ride you can buy in town at this season.
It is so sweet with great exterior, interior and performance.

You can hardly go wrong with this car, it nailed the mated camry in all ramifications you can think of.

Honda Accord 2013 - 2022 generations are the world best mid-size Sedan cars you can think of.
I will do Accord again and again...

Investment / Re: What Kind Of Business Can I Start Up In Nigeria With 4million? by idmoore(m): 11:47pm On Mar 03, 2022
@OP
To the best of my knowledge building materials is a good type of business with good return on investment I won't advise you to go into cement, reason being that that profit margin on cement sales in small and at the same time it ties down your money because of the vaule on the cost of cement.
The profit margins on cement is just like 100 - 200 Naira but of you don't mind the profit margin, it is a cool business.
N4million might be small to begin a cement business on a large or supply scale.

Somebody please help.

I changed break pads today and all of a sudden, the steering wheel just developed a mind of its own as it turns rapidly to the left while driving.

And when I park, I had to hold on to the steering before turning off the ignition to prevent it from swinging to the left again.

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by idmoore(m): 6:59am On Jan 21, 2022
accelion:
Hello guys, can I please get your sentiments about the 2014 honda accord? I plan to purchase the car week, and I am contemplating the Nigerian used to save cost. Is this a wise decision, or should I just opt for the tokunbo?

My budget for the Nigerian used (upgraded is 3.8m - 4m), while the price for the tokunbo (not upgraded) starts from 5m+. I don't have 5m now, but I can match it up. I am of the thought that if I get a well-maintained Nigerian used one, it'd be great as I hear the car hardly gives issues. Am I being Pounds foolish, Pennywise? I know you guys would say I should go for the tokunbo obviously, does that mean I can't get a good Nigerian used one?

I also think the car is for people in the middle class who can afford to maintain it. So the risk of buying an ill-treated, not-maintain Nigerian used one will be less. Is that a wrong assumption?


Now for the mechanical aspect,


Is the car an overall good one? (Yes, I will properly maintain it when I get it). If it is prone to issues, I'd instead save myself the stress. I am coming from the German and American car manufacturers' side - BMW X5 and Ford Edge 08.

What should I be prepared for in terms of expenses, minor and major issues, etc., if I buy the Nigerian used (most likely)?

Lastly, is anything wrong with getting the V6 version compared to the V4? Thanks a lot for your response and forget my questions. I can't be too careful.


Thanks, guys.

Please go ahead to purchase the Car.
It is mostly fault free if well maintained with required oils and fluid.
It hardly give you issues, and a good driving experience is assured.
It is a car I so much love, and I went for it.
It is hard for you to abuse the car because, it is very temperamental.
Any wrong oil into the car, it will show you it bad side immediately but if you keep up with the required oils.
You will just only put fuel and zooooom off

Yes I got the 2008 EX-L. Honestly getting a Toks Honda Accord 2013/2015 with a budget of 3M would be extremely difficult (almost impossible). if you can up your budget to 4M then fine... your 3M can only get you a 2008 - 2012 (Evil Spirit).. Cheers

Thank you @Bagger
Appreciates your response.
I saw registered Evil Spirit at good deals within the range of N2m but I prefer the 2013/15 model because there is alot of improvement in the 2013/15 and it is worth all the patient required.
Hope you enjoying your new ride.

guess he said toks standard meaning a clean used one or a mildly used one,but he can't even get it at 3M and also 4M is also almost not possible to get you toks 2013 accord bro,check the prices well,some toks standard clean Nigeria used sells from 3.5-4M.

@Dadabashua
You are correct.
I actually meant a Registered Toks Standard 2013/14 Honda Accord with a budget of N3m

I actually I saw a fantastic deal for N2.5m at Ejigbo, but I wasn't fast enough while I was still making a few research.
Am optimistic that with being faithfully patient.
Someone can get a good deal within that budget range, it is just a matter of time.

great ride quality. Balanced on all fours.
Great aesthetics.
Premium interior feel with a good engine.
2.4 litre cylinder produces a fairly okay 185 horsepower, and you can't go wrong with it.

If you're looking for more power, go for the 3.5 litre v6 with 285hp.
A head-Turner when it's properly maintained and cleaned.

Plus, the notoriety of Hondas having leg issues was fixed.

It shows the these model Accords has excessive engine oil consumption like 1quartz of oil every 1000miles.

Please can anybody share more person experiences in the Accord engine oil that shorts before the next service.

Especially the 2013 Honda Accord engine.
Is it a factory defects for the engines to shorts oil...?

Guru in the house should please explain the cause of this steering to other side.

I stand to be corrected, I think the Honda Accord 2013 beats the Camry hands down interms of Pricing, Drivability and handing, efficency and power, cost of parts, beautiful interior...

The Camry 2012 is behind the Accord 2013.

Please who knows the cost of Accord 2013 CVT transmission.
I want to know if the transmission is repairable or you just change it completely when it is faulty.

Between Accord 2013 CVT transmission and the Camry 2012 6speed transmission, which is more durable and costly.

Please, help a brother, so I won't make a wrong decision.
