Engr Kingreign, I don come again o. I helped out a neighbor to start his car with my battery. No jumper cable around, we had to do it normal transfer. I was carried away when putting it back to my compartment. This act signalled parking light with a buzzing sound. When I noticed, I rearranged the terminals how it should be. Now engine is not cranking, no light in the instrument cluster, nothing is working except the horn. What could have happened? Honda DC.

As if no be queue people dey do b4. This man sef!!

I still dey wonder how many drivers wake as early as 5am to hustle.
When I started new, I did it like twice and I wouldn't say I enjoyed it. E no work with my spirit at all.
That time na when sleep start dey sweet my belle.
Those who wake by that time are drivers who always gross 50k upward on daily.
Now imagine such drivers come dey settle for 25k gross on indrive, dem go get annoyed.
I have said it before, if you be bolt driver who gross 40k minimum on a daily, you would hate indrive, cos 40k on normal day ain't guaranteed on indrive at all.
Na lazy drivers like us this indrive fit well well.
Now, the picture is clear.
Much respect, bosses.

Office work no go fit u again. E don be 🤣😂

Ewu!
Wike park well, u don dey play too much. Man up and play ur card. Who dey follow u do dis rubbish?

First of all I hail una!


Please I need advice base on experience o.

So we just cleared some cars and one of them - a benz e350 2006 (Toks) caught my attention after we recently fixed gear.

I would like to travel with this car to Molete (Kwara state) between 8th -12th February (next month) but i dont know what is both legal and street OT way of moving UNREGISTERED VEHICLE To and fro!

So please:

1- what legal reason can I have to move tokunbo from lagos to Kwara and back without ownership documents. Only Customer and clearing papers. Toks

2- if legal reason dey, abeg what should i expect on the road as regards driving a toks inter state, legal wise and street wise?

3- lastly car is of low clearance profile to the ground , is the road merciful for this kain car?


Note:

License is intact and up to date.

Vehicle clearance and C papers are original (no backdoor).

I am used to traveling (cotonou, ekiti and edo) but ONLY in used and registered vehicles with papers always up to date. So I’m developing a cold feet to doing toks without getting in trouble.

Better safe than sorry.

VaselineCrew:


It’s an Avensis.

All the systems just started shutting down one by one

Brakes
Speedometer
Power steering

I now parked and see smoke billowing from the engine bay.

The shhh just kept burning, even after using about half a fire extinguisher can on it, until we got the bright idea to disconnect the battery.

As soon as the battery was reconnected, it started burning again, which means the abs module is always powered whether the car is on or off as long as the battery is connected,

I have read a couple articles online that detail cars being burnt down at car parks cause the abs just started burning, and no one was around to notice or stop it.

It’s quite a scary situation, honestly. Now I don’t even want to park anymore with my battery head still connected, but that would mean the computer would have to relearn idle rpms and stuff, but I’ll take that over a burnt vehicle.

Below is a pic of the burnt abs module. You can see that it’s the computer that is burnt. Not sure how the computer is isolated from the pump, but maybe brake fluid leaked into the computer and caused it to short out, just a theory.

I think Gazzuzz had a thread about it later. Contact him for solution. It was common with Corolla of south African model.

Biko nu where is Felicity001?

Gentlelife50:

Bro what he's saying is truth, most of those Guys aren't active drivers but just want to take advantage of the union thing, just watch out very soon we will have stickers monthly or yearly dues and stuffs like that if such thing happens.
I have even heard some of those Guys that were doing this union something were giving slots in this lagride stuff, they are all big boys now.
All the while they were using the union thing to chase their own interests.
At a point government wanted ehailing drivers to paint thier cars certain color. You remember?
A lot of drivers frowned against it, because government didn't provide this job and didn't do anything to improve it besides it's my car and that's not what's obtainable elsewhere, it was easy to fight it because there was no union and no known means to actually identify ehailing drivers assuming there was a union trust me it would have come to fruition.

A lot of drivers cry because of the high percentage of bolt commission but don't know what is exactly going on behind the scenes, bolt aren't the only people taking that commission you see.

It took a lot before government forced them into it, take a lot at those delivery Guys and see how they suffer in the hands of those agberos that's exactly what will be happening any day you form any union.

There many unions in this country, how many of them have really improved the warfare of it's members? The leaders are just out there to take advantage of them, you will regret it if any union come on board and start dictating things for you.

U see! Too much vawluence u support on this thread. U like war

A valid point though.

VaselineCrew:


True talk bro.

My car almost burnt down last week cause the abs module started burning, even with the car off and parked.

That is how i had to remove 90k to buy abs module, omo the tin pain me no be small.

God is in control sha, and I thank God that I was there when it was burning, and it did not start burning while I was sleeping cause I would have lost the whole car to fire.

However, it is still painful to have lost that money for useless abs that I don't even use.

Is ur car Toyota Corolla south African model?

Na me dey like una posts Sha. Funny comments.

Crvrider:


You see this thing when pearl dey talk, me I no get, in fact there's no day I leave the house without opening the bonnet of my car. Due to prior experience I've had with over heating, I look my dashboard while driving more than a lady look mirror wearing makeup sef. So, instead of carrying spare of everything like he does, I'll just tow another crv so now I know I really have two of everything.

I have been expecting such comment. Year never go far, but collect the comment of the year award

I don laught tire. Pearl1910, see wetin u cause.
Henceforth, na to put our car replica inside boot 😂😂🤣🤣😀😀
God have mercy on this thread 😁

Nobody owes us apology. Shurup!

How conversant are we with our instrument cluster (dash)?
A single change or flash means a lot. Eg, slight rise in temperature gauge, oil pump flash, battery flash, etc, even notorious check engine light (we Sabi ignore that) 😀.

Coming to the mechanical aspect, do we also pay attention to the noise from the car? Someone like me, extra sound I hear, e don be.
B4 I leave in the morning, I pay attention, to the car, start the car, watch and listen to sights and sounds of the vehicle, check all fluid even the belt, should be inspected.

U see, I hate blasting music too. Cos one wahala fit start u no go know on time.

But there are issues that might start and won't give u chance to get to ur mechanic. Example..... Entering potholes suddenly and fiam, something don scatter😀

Which party I go support now? Team Pearl or Team e no dey give sign.
Anyways, I believe in my driving experience, cars give sign b4 it fails, 90% of the time.

Tgiirl:
Good day sir and Ma

I need your expertise on this.

My in-law uses Nissan Rogue 2014 model. Before he travelled he topped the CVT gear oil with abor oil.

When he starred the suv to go out. The vehicle refuse to drive or reverse.
We called a nearby mechanic and all he said was the gear is bad without even checking anything.


Pls what can be done

Abro oil in a CVT transmission? We die!!! Say no more, only divine intervention fit save the gear or buying another one.

Seem rider's determines the shift in price in this business. Regardless of the fuel issue, it looks like rider's are not much today. The way drivers are dragging 1300 trip. I really suffered today, tho met my target but with more input.

Boss, subsidy have to go, FG can't keep borrowing to subsidise fuel. The only problem here is the presure will be intense, because will actually don't have any refinery that is working up to optimal. Maybe Otunba Dangote, the chief monopolist is about to start his own before June. This one they are doing is just to test the water. Eventually they will keep increasing pump price and the people will be adjusting to the new price without any fuss. After this fist for 2 months, if they increase it to 185 as rumoured, I'm sure we are all going to accept the new price in good faith

Almost everything has increase by 100% or more. Name it! Bag or pure water from 150k/250k. Malt of 150k/300k. Olosho 20k is now 50k. We'll survive, they used to be a time biscuit was sold for 1 naira.

Why now?

Gentlelife50:


Lol, Bro that original coolant.

The unfortunate thing is our kazeems will just let those coolants go and will not even hesitate to replace them with water, very anyhow people.
Anyways u can contact Mr Dru, he used to have original coolants.
U can use it to replace it, there's a reason oyibo have the coolant tank.
If not for anything it helps prevent your radiator from rusting quick.

Hmmn! Trouble dey sleep, inyanga wan resurrect am


As for the kazeems, hell no go open doors for them. Some dey add well water with debris (ropes) inside. No time!!
