ekeochaeke:
pls how do u mean by highly suspect. Do you mean it is ok or cheap and hence would not last.

All depends on your pocket. But note that the front shocks are much more expensive compared to the rear shocks. There are some for 7k for a pair as well

insideout:
Please all car gurus in the house i need your help. I am new to nairaland. It was recommended to me by a friend. My altima 2008 2.5s guzzles fuel compared to what i read online. The trip computer shows 19.2mpg on city and 20.8 or 21mpg for hwy. A full tank shows a range of 320 miles against to 522 miles i read on samarins.com. The altima 2008 should be 23mpg city and 31 mpg hwy. I need help.

Am very sure you should have your service engine soon light. Run a scan on your computer box. Am very sure you should have fault errors there. If you need to carry out the repair or run a diagnosis call 08165520837 or 08156087872. Am running a free diagnosis now

ekeochaeke:
Thanks. like how long estimated can it last. Cos i saw one in ph here and it was for 35k and 70k for a pair.

The life spern depends on how careful you are when driving not running into ditches and beiliving you have got an original shocks cosit doesn't work that way. Sure it will last you but in ph it should cost more

ekeochaeke:
Thanks. But is it 15k for one or for a pair.

Hello Aĺl
Please i need help. I just bought 1998 toyota camry and I just noticed that anytime I put on the AC I consumes like 80% more beyond normal. I one statement. That car consumes fuel more than normal.

I noticed check engine light is on but my mechanic told me it doesn't matter. Right now I need help before I run out of budget.


Thank you

Since your engine light is on . You need run a scan

Are you saying a mistibushi engine was fitted into the car?

Sunymoore:
So my car legs got brand new shoes, I decided to rev the car a bit higher on each gear till I maintain a stable speed, all goes well for about ten minutes until I saw my car temperature, it rose to almost the danger zone.. What could be wrong..? My radiator is double cell, but the cap is not the OEM.. When I started the engine today for about five minutes, the temperature remains moderate...

How do you expect us to know what type of car you complaining about? Your problem could range from a weak fan to a leak in your cooling system. How often do you have to top your radiator? Am looking at a situation where you have got a weak fan. If you Re good @ DIY you could check it yourself but if you are in lagos and you need an assitance. Call 08156087872 or 08165520837 to get a permanence fix

phraoh:

anakobe1:
please can somebody suggest to me the cause of the noise sometime i hear from my car engine

How do we know the kinda of noise you talking about. You could record the noise and upload here

crispgg:
Thanks @mayor2013 for your response. You actually analysed the issue and challenges properly.

With the challenges associated highlighted above. Is it even possible for a company that decides to sell only genuine parts survive in the Nigerian market?

Are there car owners in Nigeria who are ready to pay for those expensive parts, or do we continue with our tokunbo and sub standard parts jejely.

That kind of company cannot survive in the Nigerian system. Some car owners will but few of them. The best thing is to go with our toks but minding the fact that not all cars can go with the so-called tokunbo

A big question. There are 100% genuine parts in Nigeria but not on the increase cos the market has been overridden with substandard parts. 100% genuine parts are expensive to buy. One question comes to the mind of a customer when you quote him or her a price for a genuine part. Is this not too expensive?" I think he wants to cheat me" forgetting that those are original parts. The Nigerian economy too does nt help matters when it comes to biking and selling parts. What we have here is an open market where different people bring in whatever kind of parts they like. No control and even the standard organisation of Nigeria (SON) is just a complete waste of space. In foreign lands they have got this regulated way of putting in checks and balances, if for instance am a whole saler the company I buy from do not have any righ to sell to an individual rather they direct them down to me being a wholesaler. In such a case the risk of loss is minimal.in summary the blame should be shared between thr the customer and the part seller who only thinks about his or her pockets at the expense of destruction of a customer car

Yes spark plugs can cause over heating if not well to torque to the manufacturer's torque rating

A scan would not reveal an over heating issue. Carry out a coolant pressure test. You could have a blown head gasket to a leak some where in your cooling system. If you need a permanent fix call 08156087872 or 08165520837 if in lagos

0rex:
I think you have made a good choice. You can also consider the Toyota Corolla hatchback.

A corolla hatch back would for sure cost more than 1.2m that car is expensive and not too popular on the Nigerian soil

roughneck:

The water level remain full, practically I don't because, it's always full, wen I try adding just a little and it pops out

Start with a coolant pressure test first. That would reveal if a leak is present around your cooling system also check your fans well too. Obsereve the speed as well as their working conditions
