First of all, your Pilot doesn't have more power than any Camry V6 from 2007 onwards.

Secondly, they pass you because you're a lot heavier. You pull back because of the hp advantage (vs the four cylinder) on the top end. But at the start, they're lighter so inertia works in their favor.

Try versus an RX330 and see how it goes.

The Lexus go dust am. Make e abort mission!

Johnsonkeyz2019:
I use Honda Pilot 03 but sometimes if I take off maybe using AC nd with a Toyota Camry let's say like big daddy I notice they go faster first but if I keep at my pedal I pass such back
But I also know the pilot was supposed to have an higher horse power so please what could be wrong??

For your mind, your suv na race tuned and camry big daddy na korope engine e carry abi?

bizzle2:
Thanks . I understand the parameters, I'm curious about personal user experiences.
I'll settle for the 5W 30 or 40. at bolded was why I didn't completely agree with the guy.
I have two 1litre bottles of Mobil 0W 30 (came with). mad I can't use them

From personal technical experience, either 5W30 or 5W40 will be fine for your car in Nigerian Climate condition.

NB: an engine suffers most wear during cold crank.

HeavenlyBang:
Actually, I think 5W-30 is also recommended.
For example, my last oil change in the US was with Valvoline 5W30.

Oh it was?

Was only giving my input based on what Bizzle2 typed. If it was, then that's even better.

MrChilaka:
Hi I am new Here.

Own a 2007 c230, got the car (foreign used). Vehicle has 97,000miles on it, got it with check engine light. Did a scan 2days ago and P0016/P0017 pops up (figured it has to do with Cam shaft sensor on the right).

My question now is who here sells OEM cam shaft sensor?

my location - Jos..

Thanks

Cc: Autologic

If you need a cam sensor magnet, you can contact me for OEM brand new or high quality brand new after market.

bizzle2:
Considering our climate, Which is more ideal for a 75k miles M278 engine.
0W 40 (manufacturer) or 5W - 30 (benz clinic)

Go 5W40.that the best for your vehicle. The manufacturer stated 0W40. 0W means winter... The 40 is the viscosity rate. Why stick to a rather lighter fluid cos a benz clinic said so?

5W indicates the lowest temperature, 40 still matches OEM specifications on viscosity flow rate.

alphaNomega:
Read above this your post, Gazzuzz gave the man 24hours to return said engine. I don't think Gazzuzz was ready to refund or replace the item. He just wanted Baba40 to suffer.

Mr, next time stop jumping into hasty conclusions without fully reading or understanding things. It is said that if you want to hide things from Nigerians, put it into writings. This unfortunately is what you have proven to be right.
I feel sad that you who supposedly named yourself 'alfa and omega' could be so fallible.

But I was told a ford edge is not that good for a first timer... (Maintenance issue)

Get a camry or a Honda or a rav4.

[s]You and your oga are mentally ill. Come and try that nonsense with me if I won't convert your workshop to poultry.
I will request for COMPLETE ENGINE you said if was 220k, you will go ahead to buy me BORALE at a lesser price and yet problem will start after just 3 months of spending close to 400k in your shop and here you are claiming an expired stuupid warranty. It will be better I didn't set my eyes on you anymore. Bunch of thieves![/s]

I'd not give you the luxury of responding to you more than this. Go find a means to fix yourself.

patemy:
Good day people
My car developed a problem on the express way gwarimpa to be precise I couldn't move the car do I switched on the hazard light and also placed the triangle few meters away from the car then crossed over to seek for assistance the nest thing I saw was another driver just rammed into the vehicle from behind causing extensive damage to both cars. The frsc officials came and took pics and videos and now assisted to tow both vehicles out of the way to the service lane. Now the guy that hit my car is claiming he doesn't have money at all to fix my car that the car he is driving isn't his but he is doing uber with it he also claimed he called the owner of the car and he isn't willing to assist.
My issue is how do I force this guy to fix my car. To fix that car would cost at least 150k. Also ism trying my best not to involve the police because involving the police might slow the process and involve additional cost

First and foremost, your car stalling in the middle of that highway and while it was still rolling without engine input, but you decided to stop right on the highway meant you put yourself and other road users in grave danger. I'm sure you were on the speed lane when this happened hence giving you little or no room to roll over to the shoulder.
You could had caused multiple accidents and fatalities due to the rate of at which people speed on that highway. While I don't pray your or anyone else car stalls on that highway, next time, pls stopping on the highway and even coming out to cross a highway that's very busy with cars running at breakneck speeds is suicidal. Safety first safety always!


As for the damages and blame game, I'd say, contact your insurance team also try to call the owner of the other car to invite his insurance team to assist.

xperiencelove:
Do buying an engine from a dealer through your mechanic is also trial and error. What a gibberish statement ! Even in Ladipo, people do return parts.

Are you alright?

Lemme rephrase it, are you psychologically and mentally alright or not?

The year is still at its infanct time, don't start this stupidity with me please.

loba18:
I need help bosses and friends. Which of the 3 cars can I pick? That is most durable, least problematic and has the highest resale value. c320 2003 or 2006 BMW 320i or a 2002 BMW x5 v8? I know my list is odd, but what can I do, it is a gift from an older biz partner and I'm meant to pick one. They are all cars used by this same person. Petrol is not a problem.

Any of both are good. But the best is c klasse.

Hi

I attended a prayer retreat at Dunamis HQ at Airport Road Abuja and now I am done.

I came up from Lagos but want to go to Aba. Where can I get a bus going There?

Or were can I find a general Garage with bused bound for the east?

Go to Utako. There's Abia line there and it goes to Aba. If you can't find any Abia line, go ask for Peace Mass transit or any bus going to Port Harcourt.

lexini:
Please see pics below

You won't be able to direct the flow of air from the climate control. Also, it looks unslighly. Other than that, no other issues. Sorry about this theft incident.



I feel the port security and managers should rise up and deal with these port theft problems. It's giving the port workers and the nation as a whole a bad reputation and it's also discouraging import/export which in effect harms the economy of the nation.

dicksonadams:
Thanks boss,which model year is advised

Any year model is okay

dicksonadams:
Hello boss, sorry I know I am not the original person that brought up the question you answered. I have heard a lot about this xterra, heard its ruggedness rival that of similar model toyota vehicle. Please how true is this?
How durable is engine, suspension, transmission, any common failure point? Are parts and repair technicians easy to come by
?

Thinking of arquiring one

It's durable and rugged. Is a thoroughbred offroader. Just ensure it's engine and transmission and electrical aren't messed up. Parts and technicians are abound.

If she's been using any skin care body cream that contains 'Kojic Acid' or 'Mercury' or 'Hydroquinon', the change in complexion is imminent once she either stop using the product or got an adulterated.

Advice: No idea.

Bleaching cream or skin complexion toning creams abi?

Diet, hydration, lifestyle, over exposure to uv rays, underlying health challenges, pregnancies, stress, and exposure to harsh chemicals and others can cause a change in skin tone and colour.
Pay a visit to your dermatologist.

PAQ:
Happy new year! I have a 2014 Corolla with about 60k mileage, i want to have my CVT transmission drained and refilled.

I am in Abuja, my trusted mechanic doesnt seem to know the diff between CVT & AT, if i had not researched before hand he would have used an AT fluid. I am also aware that the process of drain and refill are also different.

Pls can someone refer me to an autoshop with good understanding on how to do it here in Abuja. Thanks

Wrongest move. They're not suited for such. Their suspensions and chassis alignment will suffer.

Hello everyone.

Pls i need advice, i am considering buying a nissan versa 2007 to 2009 hatchback. When going through the reviews online, i found out that it is equipped with a continuous variable transmission (CVT) which is different from d conventional transmission.

Pls has anyone here used this car before?

Go thru this website pls.

Also, they've got that weird boring rubber band cvt transmission feel.
