I bought the right one with a white cap. But I'm not convinced it's original. So I asked someone according to an experienced dealer I met, he said there's a batch no .on it, If the batch number rubs off,then it's fake.

I kept the can because oil was still left in it., I went back home and swiped off on the can ,lo and behold,the batch number rubbed off .. I'm confused too.. u
.

Close to two years since I changed the oil. Bought it 12.5k or so. @ Akilo. The proliferation of substandard lubricants in the market is a very big problem....
Most of them buy the original can and pour their fake oil in it, that way you won't know is fake. To avoid these just buy from reputable sellers.

Ha. Reserve tank is usually 10 liters in many cars with a 50 liters tank.

No way 10 liters takes you 150km.

Abeg, pity some of us that only get 200 miles with 40 liters on corolla.

😊😊😊
Senior man, your car should be doing minimum of 10L/100km, your mpg is bad for a Corolla. My car is stick shift, so i shift faster, i get 130 to 150 liters on 10L depending on my driving pattern.

Did you actually stop when the fuel nozzle clicked? At this rate, car will get to 800km.

Those days, before I got delivered, if I fill up my EoD to the brim, I would drive 80 plus miles (128km) before the fuel gauge would start moving....
I don't think i will get upto 800km, the fuel gauge drop faster at half mark. I did not fill to the brim, i bought 50 liters and it didn't fill up the tank, courtesy of tempered meter.

Doubt if they can be sharp improvement. Unless the system is been manipulated like stock market. The state of this nation is more then few words. Like i told a friend, it is best to just keep calm and observe.

The image below is what google said, but driving this car, I can say the real thing beats the hype.
It feels even better.
Thanks for the info, try to shift faster and get to 5th gear before 50km/hr, you save more fuel.

The truth is i noticed most cars on the platform are fuel guzzlers, some have their fan bypassed. It is time for drivers to tune up their cars. Change your spark plugs, air filter, scan your car and fix the error codes if your cel light is on. I help a guy to scan his car yesterday and we noticed his mechanic removed his oxygen sensors. There is no way you will make profit in these hustle if your car is a fuel guzzler. My car average 600km to 650km on full tank, so what i earn depends on the kind of trip that i make. Peace.

Good evening guys.....I noticed that my honda civic 2008 model when I tend to accelerate to 50mph there is always a kind of friction sound like voooommmmm and the noise increases with increase in miles but reduces and become silent at 40miles....my mechanic said is cup bearing at the drivers left tire I changed it yesterday but when I drove it yesterday I still heard same sound .
Check the other leg if is the culprit, also check the back hub. If all check good, check your engine seat.

My personal opinion, I would not advice you to buy a 2014 car, if the sole reason is for this hustle.
Go ahead buy something smaller not more than 07-08
Bro, how far na, how is the fuel consumption of your car, what is your mpg like? Thanks.

Bro is either you use Honda dw1 or total mvlv and both oil are not cheap. Any other oil in that transmission is not guaranteed, remember gearbox is expensive now, don't be penny wise pound foolish.

I'm putting it to you that before the hike, 2k fuel which was about 10litres will not take you to ajah from Maryland to & fro

2500 will but not 2k,
2500 was 13.5litres and I said corolla consumes 1litre/6km so meaning Maryland to ajah under bridge to and fro will give us 90km in total.
90km divided by 6km will give us 15 which means you will be needing at least 15litres of fuel to cover 90km distance. Not accurate but roughly 13.5litres of fuel will take you to and fro and this is without traffic...




This should proof my point, how much will 2k fuel gross you on bolt without surge, you will say 10k max and this is without surge, how much will bolt charge you from Maryland to ajah, that will be 7k minimum right, so going by your assertion, you said 2k will take you to ajah from Maryland to and fro, so are you saying 2k will gross you minimum of 14k without surge


Pls state your point with figures when you want to counter my claim
You need to go and check your car, i average 100 to 120km per litre on my Honda Civic though the car is manual, i always resest my trip meter anytime i buy fuel so i know what I am saying. I will advise you to read up on gazzuz thread on how to improve your fuel consumption. Going by your analysis, your car averages 60km for 10liters, which is very poor.
