Car Talk › Re: Closed by jaybim: 10:14am On Apr 08, 2018

Hello Gazzuzz, kudos for the good job here.
I have issues with my AC... Blowing hot air.
Vehicle was withdrawn from the driver (Uber, careless and a story teller) sometime last month. He had issues with the AC and he said he fixed it at ikeja (after driving on Uber and taxify with defective AC and getting suspended). I believe he refilled the gas.
Barely a week later the AC was blowing hot again. Took it to a guy at gbagada who said there was a leak (no leak test done) and that the condenser was bad and needs changing. As a stop-gap he refilled gas and oil with assurances that it'll take me for the next 3 months when I'll be ready for the major fix... AC was chilling after this.
Fast forward a little over 2 weeks after we're back to square one. Abeg wetin make we do. Car is a Corolla 06 bought tokunbo around this time last year.

Thanks in anticipation.

I'm curious about placing phones in front of AC vents...

Won't condensation occur inside and thus lead to malfunction.

I used to have this infinix that could fry an egg after a period of gameplay or in the car on hot days. I got around it by placing it on a block of frozen pure water. But it would have tiny droplets of water inside the back cover and battery.

...Just asking

Naturally some people online are legit and some are not. I had a bad experience with a seller i found here on nairaland when I was looking for a Corolla. I called him out on his thread after they jerked me around and wasted my time. I eventually got the Corolla from a guy on jiji.
Like others have said, don't part with a dime upfront or until due diligence has been done and you are totally satisfied.
Go with your mechanic, I went with 2, one to do a physical manual inspection and one to scan and run diagnostics.
Make sure papers are complete and if you can verify them, Gazuz of nairaland verified my customs papers for a small fee.
Drive to a bank at an area you are comfortable in and make payment.

jeffrizzy1:
this is crazy,playing the role of Jesus.....I hate this.

What is the significance?

Can any suffering be compared to the suffering of Jesus Christ?

ANNOYING!!!

No one is comparing bro. It's significant as a visual representation of Christ's passion.
Its like saying we should not even try to be Christian 'coz we can never come close to being like Christ.
It's all part of the ministration. When you read the Bible, when you fast, go to church etc you are following Christ's life and sharing his experience so that you can apply this for your salvation. Shall we then stop preaching coz we can never preach like Christ?
Besides what's so bad about it? I'd understand if you were upset that things were distorted or the portrayal is untrue or misleading. What harm could this pose??

Just try to be more accommodating.

Yes my grammar is technically flawed especially since I am writing on a public forum to pass time but that's not the issue. The issue i raised here is when people use unnecessary language when they can use a simpler one. End of story.

Nothing personal bro...
What I stated, in a nutshell... You wrote the same way. Your piece could have been simpler, less verbose.
Some folks pointed it out too.
It's just the way we are.

Besides some obviously flawed grammar and almost zero punctuation, I'd say you are equally guilty of that which you have complained about.

Everyone writes from within a social fabric and that fabric to a large extent colours what he writes and how he writes it.

I tried reading Naija newspaper and got was it tiresome. First of all, it's as if ~~this~~these guys were not taught how to summarize in journalism school. ~~There~~ Their reports are ~~waaaaaay~~ too long.
Secondly, the language is not even easy to follow and It looks like some of the writers are F. Scott Fitzgerald wannabe's they make it hard to read at times.
Lastly, there is ~~waaaaaay~~ too much fluff in the papers. If they will cut it down and tge unnecessary interviews with every politician who has ever served Nigeria since 1960 the average newspaper would probably be 10 pages at most.

As much as i love Naija and its people there are some things that really irritate me about the country and its the way they communicate with English language. Nigerians think that in ~~other~~ Order ~~for them~~ to express themselves in the English language, they have to uses flowery and superfluous words even when they know that a simple one would do. I came across this hillarious piece from the BBC that described this frustration ~~i have with Nigerians~~ and boy did it feel good to finally run into someone who shared my ~~frustration with the Nigerian people~~.

I was going to point it out but seeing how hard you have reiterated this fact and seeing how well your observations have been ignored, I have concluded that you and I are the only sane persons here. People do not read or listen to understand, they do so to respond.
It's the tragedy that we have become.

Why do you Ppl continue to blame the residents for littering

Guy, do you know of any country that is 100% crime free

You solve a problem after ooking at all possible causes, then the solution should trump those causes.

Close the drain and lets see how on earth litter would get in there.

So you want to enforce no littering on 200 million ppl Big dream.

Much as I understand your perspective as well as its validity I insist that the bulk of the cause lies with the indiscipline of lagosians.
Canals and storm drains obviously can't be covered.
Lagos has more subterranean drains than open ones. Most new drainages are now constructed with covers but you find missing slabs here and there with the open points becoming garbage bins. Don't you wonder how those slabs disappear?
Look around at the filth on the streets. When it rains where will all these wash into... The drainage.
Recently the waste collection arrangement had to be reviewed in the state because people weren't paying their bills.

It's not the governor who's doing the littering, it's lagosians so why shouldn't I blame lagosians. If we understand that the infrastructure is inadequate, why should we then go ahead to pile more load on it?
