My mechanic then bought some rubber pads design for springs, they have markings 1, 2 ,3 so he bought the one with number 3, 2 pieces for each spring, put one at the top of the spring and one at the bottom of the spring, before installing the spring back to the vehicle.
The lift was just done to the rear only.

When I was driving my c200k w203 rubber pads was added to the rear springs top and bottom and the rear height was lifted instantly.

If you are buying a very low car, you must develop the technicality of how pass bad road
My oga, Ive developed 100% technicality on passing bad road, but road bump is too must in the south east and my covet is quite high, so I tried everything possible even bought brand new tire bigger size and still yet it still Scape the bump and covet, my dear I have no option than to lift up.

My neighbours don patch their exhaust tire, I don't think I can endure the patch patch of exhaust oo.

I wanted to buy 205/65r16 but I was scared the from tire would scrap the splash guard when turning, I just ended the idea and went for 205/60r16
AutosRe: LPG/CNG/PETROL Hybrid Generator Carburator Sale by Manuella4ace: 8:03pm On Jul 06, 2023
Nnannapat:
I am currently using this LPG system on my 2900 Sumec generator that I bought recently, I bought the LPG/PMS carburetor for 12k at Trade fair market Lagos.
I filled my 12.5 kg gas cylinder for 7000 naira,(Satellite town, Lagos)and used it for 2 and half night to test the system.
The LPG system on 12.5 kg cylinder @ 560 naira/kg will give you about 30 hours uninterrupted power on 2900 generator, that is about 234 naira/ hour.

Things to note:

(1) You need at least 3 yards of gas hose to connect from the gas regulator on the cylinder to the carburetor on the generator.

(2) I tested the carburetor with a naked flame when the gas regulator is open to see if it leaks and the flame didn't ignite, meaning that it is even safer than PMS.

(3) The carburetor choke needs to be open always, as with PMS system you need to close the choke handle to start the generator then turn it to run when it starts, but the choke handle needs to be turned to run always when you are using LPG.

(4) When you want to switch off the generator, just turn off the generator on/off switch, then turn off the LPG regulator.

(5) Always use quality engine oil( I use Mobil) if possible buy from the filling stations, it makes your engine to last longer.

LPG is more cheaper to use than PMS.
You're actually correct, I've done the calculation and I even find out the firman generators consume less LPG that other brands. I use Firman 2900, 3000 and 10kg (6800) will last for 30hrs + but with my itec 3500 which is the same as the firman 3000 in term of power, 10kg (6800) will last for 25hrs + with my full load
I use 10liters of fuel from 6pm till 7am (5400)

Petrol - 20 liters for 26hr = 11000
LPG - 10kg for 25hrs + = 6800
I save 2100 daily.

In all, LPG is more cheaper to run on generator than petrol even though we buy LPG @ 630 - 680 here.

Bought from gazzuzz and delivered to me here in Anambra state.
Baba too legit.

Boss I know the feeling, the lifting fit affect some cars badly than others. D bigger tires definitely is better for your car.
As long as car get 17inch rim size, me I no go add any other height to d car again, I go drive am as factory do am
Speed bump for east and Lagos or Abuja are not the same oo
Car TalkRe: Is Lifting A Car Up Good Because Of Bad Road by Manuella4ace: 7:21pm On Jul 05, 2023
Harmonize234:
Well maybe, but I’ll never try to do such reconfiguration again, I’ll leave as factory made it.
I drove carefully with my corolla with factory height, I was just scrapping every speed bump on the road, even covet to my house, I just vex buy bigger tire and lifted it slightly, since then no more scrapping
and no issues so far.

GorillaApp:
Kindly recommend between these two brands.
I'm torn between these two cars and I will like opinions from those who have used or had experience with these cars.

The car will be used majorly for running around town with occasional trips .
I need something that is rugged, durable and can handle daily usage.

I want something mild on gas,( subsidy removal no be joke).

I have some worries about both cars and will want expert opinions about these issues.

The ground clearance for the MB ain't good enough but I love the handling of this brand.
For the honda, I'm worried about the front tyres popping off, coupled with transmission issues.
The honda has more spacious interior though.

Las las, which is easier to maintain?

Pls help with your knowledge.
Thanks!.

Cc: diportivo, gazzuzz, nurey, kingreign and other ogas here
I don't like that year of accord, because of the legs, if you must drive a budget friendly honda, go for the 08 civic, if not take the Benz w203 with m111 engine 2.0l kompressor you will never regret it. Parts are cheap, but sometimes scarce.

I am in Abuja and the accord I have seen is from 4.7m above...

Don't just like all these Toyota carton, reason I am not really looking at Camry.... Have used several of them, especially the 2013 Camry, the moment you get to 120km the car becomes very light
I'll prefer 2013 civic
Auto transmission, non turbo 1.8l engine.

I have a 2010 Venza V6 that rattles 2secs on almost every start up. I want to fix it. Who can do the job without complications. And what could it cost me.

I'd you're in Lagos contact Gazzuzz, Abuja Kingreign

I also noticed that when I put gear to drive, the drivetrain jerks forward at engagement, and jerks backwards when put on reverse. But transmission runs and changes smoothly. I feel the engagements shouldn't be too noticeable. It's like a clunk. I also feel same clunk when driving and i suddenly hit the accelerator. It feels like something hits the car from underneath. What could it be.

Might be transmission mount or check rear engine mount

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS CARhuh


Ford Edge 2008 SUV
Price: N4,000,000 (Naira)
Call/Text/WhatsApp: (+234) 08069829826
Location: Lagos, Nigeria.
No peace!

3 of my friends that owned this ford edge, sold off as scrabs.
Better get a clean Nigerian used; crv, rav4, rx330, rx350, MDX, pilot.

For the ford edge it's a solid car but parts are not readily available and very few mechanic that understands the car
Just take your money and get a toks civic 08 - 10 or get a 05 - 08 corolla and rest.

I personally hates cars that steals my peace of mind.

We thank God for your life but if God says that you will survive an accident, even if you are in Keke, you will still survive. Moreover, don't compare c class with corolla, that should be A class. Compare c class with lexus IS series

Very quick to mention Japanese car, op never asked to compare reliability and safety with a Japanese, you just pulled up to show you are "benz" geng. Why not talk about others, like Chinese gac or American Ford or just stick with "it is very reliable and safe"?
Am not comparing and not showing am a Benz geng, I mentioned Japanese, because I own both the c200k and corolla and honestly if it was the corolla I used the day I had an accident, hmmmmmmm, I for no dey here dey write this.

thanks bro, pls what about the maintenance, is it economical or is it as expensive as pple describe Benz to be? I mean like the cost of spare parts, mechanic workmanship & co
Very economical, parts are cheap but hard to get original parts, just don't buy an abused one.
When I was involved in an accident, that was when I knew how strong this car was, believe me, if it were to be a Japanese car, hmmmmm..... I reserve my comment.

When i slow down or come to a halt..
If I'm driving and put it in park when there's holdup and switch to drive when it's time to move the accelerator wont respond immediately.
There's a delay. Then it suddenly responds and jumps forward
The vehicle wont respond when i need to accelerate.
Takes sometime

My camry 2011 is giving me serious problems

I noticed it usually happens during rainy season or when the car passes through water.

When I'm driving. If i slow down during traffic or come to a stop, when i try to accelerate after the engine stalls
It stalls for a few seconds then jerks forward and respond to the accelerator.
The engine check and trac off indicator lights come up
..
I have changed the fuel pump, topped up the transmission fluid, cleared and replaced the engine oil but still.
When you drive it for some time the issues then stops and it moves freely.
But once i park for a while and drive again it happens

The stalling only happens intermittently for some time and doesn't happen when I'm speeding.
Only when i slow down, come to a stop and try ro accelerate again.
When i took it for scanning i think the error message was PO200 I need to confirm though.

I need a good autocare shop in surulere axis so i can deal with this once and for all

Spent money without any solution
You should have just googled the code you got after scanning.

Check your injectors
