They invested or lend out the money and expect high returns. Since the money is out they can't pay pensioners regularly.

This country is a prison for its citizens

Nothing like that,everyone is getting paid.

Where do you buy car engines from?
I am not in the business of buying car engines but the few times i have assisted someone to,I go direct to the warehouses in ladipo.As they are offloading from the container i select my thing.Note this type of engine is non refundable(what you see is what you get,if it doesn't crank, steam well or smokes you are OYO.The catch is that its cheaper,neater,you are sure it has not been tampered and it always works for me thus far at least.

Good day guys,
I need your advice, I got a Hyundai sonata 06 February this year.
Mobil 1 5w-20 was used as specified on the engine.
3 weeks after, a leak was noticed as a result of rust of the engine tray/seat.
The entire oil was drained, rust was stopped with glue and painting of the tray.
The drained oil was added back to the engine, I bought additional 1 quartz to ensure the oil gauged to the normal level.

A month after I started to observe that the oil comes out short every day.
Today, the oil gauge was only at the tip.

What could be the cause, someone suggested that I switch from 5w-20 to 30 or 40 cos of its thickness (viscosity)
I suggest you carry out a physical inspection for physical leaks.If non is noticed switch to 5w30 and if it continues 10w40.If after 10w40 it continues then that means your engine has started singing "I am coming home,i'm coming home".

Why are you making bogus claims? 20W50 is our oil in Nigeria!!

Why do guys here always insist on 5w30, 5w20, 5w40 oils when the American people switch to 20w50 during the summer season?

Are you saying that our weather is colder than their summers?

Hence following the decision to acquire the w210 E320 2001 model year I am thinking about using Mobil oil xhp @3000 miles change intervals.

Any concerns I should be aware of?

I am predicting you would have engine issues sooner than you expect."Benz engines are indestructible" but with someone like you ,they might just rephrase that

The w210 has better handling than the w203
The arms.of a w210 is ruggedly built to last unlike the 203,the w203 consume more than the w210
The w210 E320 with M112 is faster than the w203
The maintenance of the w210 is way cheaper than the w203
The w210 has more cabin room and engine room which makes DIY easy and also easy for kazeem

The case of rust issue
Is a general thing with Benz
I have seen many sharpw210 facelift without rust and seen many w203 with rust
W210 started from 95 while w203 started from 2002
So that explains why kingreign feels they fall apart or rust. They ended the production of w210 when w203 came out,they replaced w210 with w211
In actual facts,w210 should be compared with W202 and w203 with w211

So for u to compare 210. With 203 is cos 210 stands out
W210 was made before Chrysler came to managing resources like dey did 203

Well said but lemme add the W210 WILL MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE A GRANDAD and dont worry that front bumper must crack while the w203 looks more modern and beautiful.I so love that 210 engine it eats the road but the w203 c320 is not slow with 2 plugs per cylinder.I will still chose the 203 anyday

Hi,
I am thinking of getting my first car.
However, I am stuck between getting a Corolla sport and a Benz C200-C240 kompressor.

I wonder if someone can share their experiences, using any or both cars, including cost, maintenance, issues. E.t.c

You can also help include what to watch for when purchasing any of the cars.. thanks.
