You must have contributed to what killed him.
.
You are very correct. She didn't disclose some major details in her story. They must have had an arrangement for him to marry her after she gets her papers so he can bring his kids and wife later. Then she can remarry and settle down. Reason he invested his life savings but sister had other ideas. If you check well maybe the wife knew too and played along , reason she is disgusted and won't take any assistance from OP. She did them 419 now wants to give back peanut after the man had died.

My car engine is making a rattling/ sparking noise like ke ke ke ke when accelerating sometimes when climbing a hill or when you suddenly press the acceleration to increase speed .

I have changed the plugs, what can be the issue. I use a C300 MB 2010

Aswear i know this sound and can relate 100%. Try use thicker oil weight it would go away. I used ceratec and mine went away.

I made a quick trip to Lagos yesterday. It was pretty disastrous as I got caught in the road closure by NANS/ASUU on airport road. It rained all the way to and fro.

Good day everyone, this is my first comment on any thread for years on nairaland I want to appreciate the contributors to this thread as it's my favorite in the car talk section.

I have a question I want to ask, people say that the w205 c300 is not suitable in Nigeria due to hydolock issues caused by lack of premium fuel. I see a lot of C300 around recently, how do they cope with the fuel?

I heard some add lead booster,how often are they supposed to do so? and is the c300 reliable in this country if maintained properly?

Or is someone just expected to go with the C400 if none of the issues can be solved?

At every fill up, meaning you should allow yor fuel gauage get to the quarter mark.For me in 5 years my guage has never reached that mark(cannot come and be having fuel pump issues anyhow). Meanwhile i know someone with a similar type of engine that always adds that octane booster. The day the cousin took the car out and fueled without adding the booster , that was the day the engine had issue( maybe that is what you are referring to as hydrolock).

One day someone called me that he was at a fuel station and saw a guy in a BMW X6 popped open his trunk and pick a can of liqui moly injector cleaner from a carton before refuelling.

Anyways las las you will be alright , get the W205 if its what you desire.

Good evening. Please, what's the best ATF to use for a Mercedes Benz (2010) GL450? I want to replace the gear oil for the first time & unsure which is best before the mechanic will just use anyone. Thanks.

Liqui Moly Top Tec ATF 1800 about 8k per litre...Your transmission takes 9 litres since you are not draining Torque about 5 to 6 litres should do it.

Pipe with spacers how sir?

You dug this up from how many years ago?Ask gazzus if he still has spacers....you use it in place of O2 sensors to deceive the ECU that Catalyst is present.

Opened my front fuse box and saw water in it. My electrician is far from me but told me to remove the brain box and put it under d sun to dry up, and I plan on loosing the fuse box as well to dry up properly
Just budget to buy another ECU and get a panel to through your drain ducts else if it rains again it will damage your ECU. Avoid parking where water from the roof falls directly on the car.

Very true at the bolded.

Come dash me the car nahgrin make I take do some guys pepper body smallgringrin

Okay to all my ogas in the house pls kindly assist as I've been having this issue with my car for almost 3 weeks now.

About 4-5months ago my key feel into a very deep gutter and after about 1hr of getting it out it corrupted the ignition and the brainbox shut down the car entirely.

Removed the ignition mouth took it to ladipo and a reprogram was done and car came back to life.

A month after car wouldn't start but after a while it will start until one Sunday when it didn't start at all. Kick start was replaced and car worked perfectly again.

Like 1 or 2 months after car won't start after putting it off but when another battery is used it starts well with just a single crank.

PS: Just a twist of the key on ignition my car usually start.

So, on this fateful night after clubbing to go home car didn't start... Lolgrin used a friend's battery, no way!

Next morning my electrician came and as if he had a magical hands cars started without doing anything.

No no no!!! Oga how did you do it? Donut again. He did and car startedgrin what??!!

I did same, put it off and did same way he did, it started. Hmm!

We moved, and noticed gear wouldn't select very well. Hmm!

Now, this is the new starting technics, turn and hold key till car starts. The first few seconds of holding key you won't hear any cranking sound at all but after like 3-5 seconds it cranks and start and when you engage hear you'll hear a hit sound from the gear like it was forcefully put into gear. Instrument cluster will display error message (visit workshop) and the P sign would still display despite car in motion, gear won't exceed the 1st. No matter the distance covered.

But sometimes if car starts by just a single twist of the key everything works perfectly well, gear selects normally and the P changes immidately to R, N and D.

My electrician said it's my key, that I need to change it completely.

Who has'd similar experience b4?

A friend is currently been frustrated with his W203 C180.

EC light keeps coming on, refused to go when manually reset except a scan tool is plugged to reset the system. No error from scan tool.

And when ever this light turns red the AC compressor shuts down and ac won't cool until a scanner is used to clear it b4 the light goes off.

Anyone with similar experience should kindly assist.

See image within

He should change the console( before the price madness it was 5k).
