Na wa for you o, don't you know difference between sedan and suv or truck? Na wa for you o

Bro, the term SUV and truck may be used loosely to mean same thing based on their chassis and build. Heck, even some automotive car classification as well as some car manufacturers classifies SUVs as light trucks.

Learn to study and research before hastily and erroneously concluding.

Tenk.

Travel Gurus,
I planned on journeying on 2nd Jan to Umuahia.

I can find my way to Onitsha but from there, a bit confused on the route to follow.

I intend passing through Owerri because I can find my way to Owerri , but heard there's a shorter route from Onitsha. Please I need some guide.

Follow AKTC drivers from Onitsha, they'll pass thru that's all I can say.

I don't know if they still pass thru Ihiala - Orlu route or not.

Na wa for you o, don't you know difference between sedan and sun or truck? Na wa for you o

No sir!

But you didn't mention if it compares to a sedan. A Toyota of same model is what you compare it to na. Same model could be year, engine displacement, body style etc. I base my comparison to year model.

So you are wrong, I am right!

thonyokun:
Those that know about cars will understand. The landing cost is higher than any Toyota of same model.

You need not lie to score a cheap point.

It's not as expensive as a Hilux of same year to clear, not anywhere near a Dyna of same year, I won't even mention Prado or Land cruiser of same year.

Stop needless hyping.

Good day Gazzuzz and all in the house.....
I use a 2013 kia optima. car pulled up a P1326 with flashing check engine light and once that comes up RPM cannot go higher than 2000. if the error code is cleared, car works normal but the error code comes back in the morning after a 5mins drive. Please advice....

This, I assume is an American or EU Spec Kia Optima with the GDI engine. Your Engine is having a Knock Sensor Detection System showing excessive wear in the con rod, crankshaft, bearings, crankshaft journals or piston slap.


Check if the knock sensor harness has been or the sensor is bad, if all is okay, check ECM, if that's okay, e be like engine go come down sha.

Thanks once more, at the mechanic and they are checking as per everyone's suggestions and I hope this can be resolved, don't know if it was involved in a rear end impact got it a tokunbo three months ago, was making noise all over, I was told it was the absorbers, and they were all changed, only for the noise to remain at the rear.

Ask your mechanic to honestly tell you if it's been involved in a rear end collision

Available. Legit car for legit people

Within a short span of time, he has achieved quite alot. He bagged a Degree in Law, Built himself a mansion in his country home etc.

I celebrate his winnings!

Amenaghwon:
Good morning and thank you, I've had it checked by three mechanics and that brought about changing all the parts but I'm still getting the same results. I am in Lagos I would have brought it over.

Since you're in Lagos, have a mechanic check the rear beam, have him take a spanner to tighten ALL bolts and nuts. Also, he should check the axle and its bushings too.

By the way, was this car involved in a rear end impact?

Amenaghwon:
My 2008 Toyota highlander is making funny noises from rear, I've changed everything from shock absorbers, to linkages, to bushings, even the sway bar, and I still have the noises.
Please help

Have another mechanic check it.

If you're in Abuja, I can offer such service.

Holla...

frowland:
Abuja big boy, we hear you sir!

I'm by no means an Abuja big boy, I live a modest middle class life.

Are you a 'Lagos Big boy'?

frowland:
I was amazed when you mentioned leg problems in infinity and yet you said you own one.
You will jump all the gallops and bad roads and wonder why you have never worked on the suspension.

Like every part of any car, eventually, suspension will fail at some point. I drive very fast, but I'm careful of bad roads, when I can, I avoid bad roads, even if it means taking a longer route, if I can't, I go thru them very carefully. I actually take time to crawl thru bad roads and bumps.

But Lagos, na jungle be Lagos.

alphaNomega:
I hope I don't have to

Well, Infiniti do have good robust suspensions. But just have that budget set aside so you'd not be met with a sucker punch. It's no loss should you get such car and there's no suspension palava.

alphaNomega:
Engine oil and air filter change only, Sir

Include suspensions....

frowland:
Try harder man!

K

alphaNomega:
I can see that, can I install an aftermarket screen? Would it work?

It won't work, from experience. Those Infiniti with factory navscreen are hard to bypass.

alphaNomega:
No sir, I don't think the car is stolen. I'm anticipating future repairs and immediate maintenance ( a routine oil change on this machine would already set me back no less than 50k)

Budget like 200k

alphaNomega:
You know I have to fix a couple of things there like the AC and you know how expensive such repairs can get

Oh his scrap doesn't have AC?
Aha!

Remember, you'd also need to fix that terrible dash, probably an airbag or two deployed.

You're also buying a car from Lagos... Budget for suspensions. Shocks, ball joints, arms, bushings etc.

And that terrible paint job....

frowland:
Then tell your friend to go and buy a stolen car also. Works both ways.

@ alphaNomega, bidded your car 800k, I think his bid is too high, let him bid 500k.thats the right amount.

frowland:
Hmmm'. Evasive manouver. Anyway, I offer 4m. See what I did there?

Go buy 2008 C klasse or something else. It's not stolen car broke ass.

frowland:
I hear you Mr. Aboki car seller.

K

Tenk

frowland:
And you think I don't have friends there who might be interested?

They should come see the car first. Then they'll take the VIN and decide what to do with the VIN.

frowland:
I want to see if I will buy?

I'm not selling to Lagos based folks.

I'm selling to Abuja, Kaduna, Kano, etc based people.

alphaNomega:
N800,000, deal?

Bros, pity my dear frowland friend, he is a broke ass, but not as broke as to accept 800k from you for that car Biko...

frowland:
I asked first.

I'm not sending, till you tell me why you want it.

frowland:
Lol.... C300! Send the VIN.

Why?
Send the vin of your Infiniti, e get wetin I wan check!!

frowland:
Akuko. Mr. agent crawler, go and look for more cars to advertise. I have cars here to sell that's not posted. You can as well help me out if you don't mind.

Welp...
I am not looking for cars to sell. I have 2 I am selling off.

A Mercedes benz C300
My Infiniti G35

The infiniti isn't listed here good luck!

frowland:
Oga car agent, it is obvious you have issues that I cannot help you with.

He's throwing in the towel, I won him in this bout. He's bloodied and has fallen over from the jabs and blows to his head. He's dazed!!!
