Car Talk / Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by jnrcess(m): 5:09pm On Nov 17, 2023
Hello, my good people.

So I'm a first time car owner (since February of this year) and I'm in a distressing situation.

I own a Hyundai Elantra 2015 model and the original compressor for the car go damaged sometime in May. The technical told me it would be impossible to get a manual Hyundai compressor and the automatic compressor won't last and was expensive. He ended up constructing and fixing a Peogut compressor.

Ever since then I noticed that the vibration of my car increased, although it's negligible but the car's sound has changed.

Fast forward to date, I started hearing a knocking sound when I turn on the car. I took it to my mechanic and they said the sound is coming from the compressor and not the engine. The disconnected the fan belt so the pulleys were not turning and the sound wasn't there.

I spent around 20k just yesterday trying to fix the sound and I just wasted my money. The AC guy said the bearing and pulley of the compressor is bad, so he changed it but yet the sound is still there.

At this point I'm getting fed up. Please has anyone been in the same situation or experienced the same issue?

I need help.

Car Talk / HELP!!! I Blew My Car's Top Gasket. by jnrcess(m): 4:28am On May 17, 2023
Fellow NL's, I currently feel devastated. I bought my first car ever in February, an Hyundai Elantra 2015. I passed by a bad spot sometime last week and after driving for over an hour with the AC on, I noticed steam was coming from my engine. To cut the story short, my electrician discovered my radiator fan was disconnected as a result of the bad spot.

Fast forward to yesterday, the fan stopped working again and I didn't notice until the car went off. Since I am inexperienced, I tried putting on the car again, and it went off after a couple of seconds. I put off the AC and drove down to a mechanic workshop, on getting there they told me the top gasket is gone.


Please is this a big deal? The car's engine has never been tempered with. As a matter of fact there is no check engine light on my dashboard.

If repaired, will the car still drive normally or I should expect a drop in performance?

Please help me, I am totally inexperienced, and I just want to know what to expect.


PS: on getting to the mechanic shop, they put so much water in the radiator, and started the car, after a short while the water was bubbling and forcing it's way through the coolant tank.

Please can anyone tell me what ATF oil Hyundai Elantra 2015 uses? This is my first car and I have no idea about these things. I bought the car in February and the former mechanic told me the ATF oil hasn't been changed in over 2 years.

P.S I reside in Calabar, and we don't have a Hyundai or Kai service center here.
Autos / Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by jnrcess(m): 12:13pm On Jan 15, 2023
I'm considering buying an Elantra 2015 model with a bad engine. The car was bought new 2 years ago but now the engine makes terrible sound, and it's beyond repair.

I was told the engine costs about 650k but the prices I see online on Jiji are about 800k. Someone also told me if I'm getting a new engine, I will also need to change the gear system too.

Please bosses, I need professional advices.

Please help me decide between a Hyundai Elantra (2012-13) or Accent (2012-13) model as my first car. I was told the maintenance cost of the accent is higher because the parts are rear in the market. I intend using the car during the weekends for bolt services.

I'm also considering the Honda civic, but I don't the exterior of the car.
Car Talk / I Would Like To See Opinions About The Honda Civic 2008 Model by jnrcess(m): 6:19pm On Dec 14, 2022
Hey gents and ladies, I want to get a car (my first) early next year and I know absolutely nothing about cars. My friend has asked me to buy a honda civic because of its low maintenance cost, fuel consumption, and availability of its parts in the market.

I would also like to state that I will partly be using the car for bolt services aside from just moving up and down with it. So please, my bosses is this car a good one?

VoteTinubu2023:
Look at a ranking Nigeria's Senator. He has been in the Senate since 2003 and has remained up till now.

Is there a way Buhari can work out a diplomatic pardon or something similar? This is beyond disgraceful. We can do better.

Apart from his publicised crime being organ trafficking, details of the crime suggests he is also guilty of human trafficking. Imagine.

Say NO to Human trafficking
Say NO to organ trafficking



Anyway, Vote TINUBU 2023. He has an excellent and extensive record on crime intolerance.Vote APC.

Diplomatic pardon for what exactly? If he is found guilty then he should face the full wrath of the law.

And to hell with your Tinubu and is excellent record.

Business / How Much Have You Lost To POS Payment System In Nigeria? by jnrcess(m): 7:49am On Apr 22, 2022
Point of sale (POS) system is already a very popular payment system, and for someone like me I find it a very convenient way of paying for goods and services.

I have never left the shores of Nigeria but I believe the banking system is miles better than the crap with have over here.

I have lost a total of N 9,850 using POS. Just yesterday I went to a supermarket to buy items worth N 3,800. I first paid with my card and it declined, so I paid with the cash I had on me. On getting to the house, I realized I was debited.

This is the third time I'm experiencing this. I logged my complaint to the bank but I never got a refund.

Please share your experiences.

Jobs/Vacancies / Salary Earners- What Is The Highest Amount A Salary Job Has Paid You. by jnrcess(m): 8:08am On Nov 02, 2021
It is that time of the month when most salary earners smile home. Some have been paid and some are yet to be paid.

Personally, I haven't had a full time job in over 4 years because of school. My first full time job before I gained admission paid me 8k per month.

I recently landed a full-time job (remote) that offered me a monthly pay of 500k. As a final year student, who has never earned this amount of money in a month, I'm blown away �.

So what's the highest amount your full time job has paid you?

Properties / I Just Rented My First Apartment And I'm Not Happy by jnrcess(m): 8:14pm On Oct 19, 2021
Hello guys, I believe this will be the best section to post this.

I've been independent since I was like 18 years old. I'm currently a final year student, and I've sponsored my way since I was in SS3 up until now.

Since I gained admission into the University, I have lived in a family (maternal) compound. I was paying all kinds of bills except rent.

About a month ago, I was given 3-days notice to vacate the portion of the compound I was occupying (a self-con). This came as a big shocker for me as I was unprepared and very broke at that time. I moved in with a neighbor, and my living condition has not been delightful.

By the grace of God, I was able to raise about 400k from my business ( I freelance on Upwork). I paid about 280k for a self-con apartment 2 days ago (Yes, houses in Calabar are expensive).

The apartment I paid for was recently built, and I will be the first tenant to move in. Now, here's where the problem lies, the apartment does not have a borehole yet, they rely on water-board, and the water supply in Calabar is terrible. I feel cheated because I simply churned out 250k, and sometimes I will be going outside my apartment to get water.

I blame myself for not taking my time to inspect the compound. The agent I used was not sincere; as a matter of fact, because of desperation, I paid about 6 agents, and I discovered "these so-called agents are a bunch of time wasters and insincere lots, who are just after inspection and agent fees".

I've met the landlord and talked to him about the water situation, and he told me he has plans of fixing a borehole but maybe not anytime soon.

So yeah,as a first-timer I believe I made a mistake in renting this apartment. Any advice for me, will be much appreciated.

Please pardon any typo or grammar errors.
