Please I need your advise.I am in a dilemma

What is the implication of an odometer been tampered?And how do I handle such a situation?

Thanks for all your support.Look forward to your reply.
Apart from the obvious anger of feeling cheated. The biggest implication of a tampered odometer is in the maintenance and service. The biggest one of them all is the timing belt replacement. Some parts are meant to be replaced at specific mileage (at least to prevent the event of a costly failure). A broken timing belt can cause your pistons to be damaged and bent valves.

Some manufacturer recommends replacement at around 70,000 miles. If a car has about 60,000 miles and was rolled back to like 30,000 you will obviously pass the recommended mileage without you knowing it, and might prove costly for you.

There are other critical parts that can need changing but you don't know (the problem of a 30,000 miles car will be different from a 100,000 miles car) hence makes enjoying the car difficult for you.I have seen odometer rolled back almost 100,000 miles or more! A 180,000 miles odometer reading about 75,000!!!!


Another point of view is that if they can roll back the odometer, who knows what else is done to cut corners. Other notable ones are disconnecting airbag lights and "check engine" light rather that properly diagnose and fix the problem. If you don't get the warning, you can't fix the car, hence the car will break down on you prematurely. That is why you inspect those things before buying a car.

If you want to test a car to buy, turn on the ignition switch, make sure all th dashboard warning light comes on. (Check engine, Airbag, Charge, oil, etc) before you start the car.

There are lots of games played by the Naija dealers, you just have to be a little vigilant when you shop.

And not to forget the fact that its just plain wrong and dishonest!!!

How can you be "negotiating" for car when you are pricing almost at half price? undecided Pricing at a price that you know you can't find it in Naija used?

Im sorry that's insulting!. Why even waste people's time?

Good luck in your sales.
AutosRe: Need To Change My Tyres, Pls Advice! by KunleA2(m): 4:34pm On Mar 30, 2010
its not too wide to rub. i have seen that size on camrys b4 with no issue. Since the shocks has to do with height and clearance the width doesn't come into play at all.

seal777:
Watch it very well as u will have some issues with your shock absorber most especially the back ones if they are weak.

your guide will eventually rub on your tyres if your shock absorbers are weak.

I have the same issues with my Camry after changing to 205/65, looks wonderful on my car but i was forced to changed my shocks to save the new tyres from getting damaged as a result of it rubbing on the guide.
That is not really true. Your absorbers were bad and the tires rubbing has nothing to do with the size of the tires. The reason is that goin from a 195/65 series to 205/65 will only change the width of your tires. The height is still the same which is the "65" series. So it can't rub cos of width. The width is not that much wider anyway.

A "205/70" or a "205/75" will be taller tires, which will rub. They arfe for pickups like Hilux anyway so they might not fit. While a "206/60" or "205/55" will lower the car cos you changes from the original "65" series to "55"

Your car was rubbing for different reason and probably too much load or passenger and weak shocks.

Good luck

Hi Nairalanders,
I am new to this forum. Can someone know of a very good Mercedes benz mechanics in Lagos?

I own a 2000 model mercedes C240 sport and would really like a competent mechanic to check it out not trial and error.

Pleas help!!!
I really dont live in Lagos. However, when i was going through this site i came across an info on Benz Clinic. I happened to save the info. See attached. So that might be of help.

Also, i grew up in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State (i am not sure if you are familiar with the place). One mechanic used to have a shop near our school and he is still in Business today. He is located on Molipa Expressway in Ijebu Ode. Near Yisade Hotel. I don't really know his name but he's the only guy there fixing Benz. You can't miss him.

Like i said, he's been doing it since i was in secondary school. And i graduated in 1988. shocked He's still doing it till today. Our house is only located about 5 minutes from his shop. A lot of Lagos residents come to him all the time. If you happen to find yourself around there, or you don't mind driving, it might worth a drive. You cant be doing something for about 30 years without knowing what you are doing.

Leventis Motors used to send guys to Germany back in the 70's and 80's to train to be Benz Mechanics, i think he was one of those guys. Don't know him nor patronized him before but if i need to fix a Benz, i will go to him.

Otherwise, use the info on that picture attached. Looks like a good company. At least they are confident enough to promote their shop. undecided

Good luck.

sultaan:
A 4cyl 7 passenger van! not sold in America.

Look towards Europe, not US models.
Odyssey has 6 cylinders, I don't know about the Picnic if its a variation of (Sienna V6)
Only 2010 Sienna has 4 cyl
You are looking for something no one has for sale

Get a used 540 wagon and you'll be fine.

Or 5 cyl Forrester, Outback, V70
Dude! Whatever happened to the Sultaan i used to know? Honda odyssey from 1995-1998 (Like the picture above) is a 4 Cyl and sits 7. (3 in the back, 2 in middle, 2 in front). Same as the old Toyota Previa Vans. They all have 4 Cyls.

Also, there used to be the old Toyoata Vans (sold from 1984 - 1991). i think they are called F2 or so. Basically same as the old Lite ace in Naija. sits 7 as well.

Mitsubishi also sold vans in the US (1988-199?). See pics attached. It also sits 7. 4 banger engine.

Are you sure you know what you are talking about?

Its hard to say without seeing the vehicle. It shows that there is a collision damage and i can't know unless i see what type of damage is it. Is the 1.2m all inclusive to get it to your door in Naija?Have you paid yet?

I am a dealer here, send me your specs and lets see if we can get you something without any damage at all in the range of your price. But i will like to know your specs though.

Nothing wrong with buying a used car if you know what you are looking for.
Oga Kunle, I wanted to know if he bought it in naija or even in Nairaland. It does matter anyway.
Again what was the mileage when it was bought? NL would have assisted her in checking the history before committing your money.
Oga Kunle u be dealer and know importance of mileage as regards longevity of the engine.
Now i understand you. Let the owner fill us in. It is an information that can help others too. Good point.
