What's d catch baba?
They just can't dash thousands of people equipment worth 500k - 1m without a hook.

I know right....

The guy told me the MD just made the decision.

My guess government is really trying to push cng u know Lagos State Govt is highly involved with IOGC. But whatever the case IOGC were amongst the pioneers of cng in Nigeria and dey are excellent converters with good after service so one has nothing to lose.

Deigofortune:
Baba abeg any specific IOGC station to visit, wey ur neighbor de work....

All IOGC mate. Just verify d news first then I can drop his contact if u want

Pearl1910:
Na all these discounted installation they give people PTSD

From IOGC? be like u no understand wetin u dey talk broski

Shimmaa:
No discount on 100l type 2?

None I'm aware of

Prince3030:
Ive searched everywhere, i can't see anything about it

Forget searching online na physical verification u need. drive to any IOGC and verify first as na only staff go sabi for now

Guys I have a neighbor who is an IOGC staff in my estate and he just told me they r running a discount on 65L cylinder with conversion for 200k.

Please if u r interested kindly verify d news and act accordingly

Shimmaa:
Ok, thanks. Pls kindly help me ask how much they will install type 2 100l inside Corolla 04.

Iz d same cylinder I did on my sexy Rav and it cost me 1.2m

Shimmaa:
I need some clarification, are they going to change the coils and plugs of the car which the cost is already included in the initial cost?

The cost is for conversion but before conversion dey will inspect ur car and advise you if u need to change anything..furthermore, after d conversion dey will also check and ensure all is working well. In my instance, my car was well rounded and didn't need to change anything before or after conversion.

They only told me to steam wash my engine and return it for conversion. So it depends on ur car and specifics needs

Shimmaa:
Any recommendation?

Yes city mechanics off oba akran. I can bet my left balls on their services esp after service.

Then toojah I believe on this forum does it tho I haven't deal with him but some here have with no ishh.

There r two folks or so I recommended city mechanics and they r on this forum. No complain one day but pls whereever u do it, do your due diligence no allow any ignorant person here whine u

Shimmaa:
Haa, why?

Nothing ooo....I just don't want you to blame anyone cause we don't know where u r converting from ooo

Shimmaa:
I will be so pained if I finally convert my car to CNG and I start having issues with the car, I’m installing type 2 100l and it will cost 1.1m. Imagine spending that huge amount and I start having random and reoccurring issues with the car.

I’m totally discouraged honestly.

Please don't convert ooo. Pls don't even convert bro.

Kaymaxi2222:
I don't know what you mean by unskilled as at the time I did my conversion, the guys that did it back then for me were still one of the best but because there were little experiences back then. That's what lead to the issues even dangote face same issue which is why he is ordering is truck directly from China now not converting them here again or you know better than dangote too.

Well I don't want to argue but honestly here is someone I know that Gazzuz did cng for as far back as 2021 or 2022 or so and the guy is still using it till date .

Point is as at d time you were installing others also installed and are still using it till date and never had d issues u had so how will u say d folks that installed urs were d best?. Well I'm not here to argue I'm only saying one man's poison is another meat.

Unless u mean everyone that installed at d time u did also experienced your issue then obviously it was installation problem and not that cng is to blame.

Sorry once again for ur experience

Pearl1910:
It's no longer secret that after u install CNG, ur engine begins to wear out faster. It's just that we don't have forensics to proof that if CNG wasn't installed d engine would still be running well.

I have yet another latest example of a CNG car preparing to change engine within 1year of using CNG.

So in life experiences sadly r d best teachers. My car engine once in a while on fuel issues forth water but on cng it does this every time needless to say that Everytime I switch to cng the engine steps down like it become quieter .

My good friend cng actually helps ur engine if u regulate it properly. Some erroneously don't like to use fuel again after conversion which is bad for it engine but understanding good practices will infact make ur engine perform better.

Even d oil doesn't blacken out like fuel so u understand that ur engine is burning efficiently without stress

Someone just educated you and it's noise to you

Kaymaxi2222:
bro convert ooo that's why I said in my own initial comment on this thread about cng that we that did it early for this lagos suffer no be small. But now o the technology knowhow has improved so do it. The same guy that made me spent so much has now become guru.

Ur problem was from conversion. Na dagbo conversion from onset na y u experience shege. Sorry.

Converted like 3 months ago now, no story. I haven't even changed one plug talkless of coil.

Thank God for my own experience

Conner44:
There's nobody that reads the book he wrote who won't give him accolades for at least 'trying'

Conner44:
I was actually thinking he'd give us instances and scenarios but alas 😕

Afterall we are all here to learn aren't we

I was also reading his post expectantly waiting to learn

Well....nothing spoil sha

Conner44:
Oga it's okay 👍🏾 you've tried your best so it's from Google and YouTube you got the information that CNG has been damaging cars in only Nigeria


Abeg no vex, ride on

He really tried his best

Latonal1:
I don't need to answer your question 'how many people do I know ' they are disadvantages to this thing called CNG you know, to learn more Google is your friend and YouTube is your friend to watch and see peoples feedback about it positive and negatives

If newbies want to start e hailing now they will tell the person it is profitable they will never tell you how it is profitable days of the week, challenges, risk na you go find out yourself if you can keep up or leave it for strong men.

Just this month alone na 2 people I heard doing e hailing they hijack dere cars not to talk of someone missing with their cars on the job due to they want to make maximum profit and all this people wey dey net over 40k daily 😂😂 dere car no dey good they will never show what dey go through with mechanic or how d condition of dere car is and is this same people passenger will lost or forget an item in their car still steal it or refuse to return tell me if profit plenty will any driver steal something

Am sure a lot of people saw full grown men entering deep water on the Island just to pick up 20k ride at the end of it they car got flooded na does people dey look for 50k profit daily

I blame the government, I blame the apps that allows passengers to reduce the recommended price they choose lastly I blame the stupid so called people using CNG accepting those prices because passenger believes someone will accept my price soon they will rather wait than rush

I have never picked ride below 600naira/km before if na 2 to 4 trip I see I dey house be that if na 20k I see as net I dey house be that driving cars for long hours causes a lot of mechanical issues, overheating, engine self done too hot. I know so many drivers this year way no drive again always having issues with the car

Alot of people don't know or understand what is called a vehicle so far it is still starting we move that is why Nigerian fear to buy Nigeria use car and prefer tokunbo na so so water person go wake up for morning they put inside radiator still pack few water inside booth in case anything happens for road to buy coolant within 10k to 20k na war they are making a lot of money

I know a person doing Uber for over it 8years advising people on it presently he is looking for a car if 2-3m Nigeria use where are all the alot of money inside it he is still looking unkept Uber is side hustle nothing more

Am a construction engineer if you need my service let me know I do drive weekends when am not on clients projects just to survive

Haaaa. Bro u can talk ooo.

All these talk yet u didn't answer bros questions. As in I actually read ur comment and trully u just dey talk

It is well ooo

Well as person dey talk for here. After d race...we count d miles

Latonal1:
You people in Nigeria use after market CNG kits and poor wiring. Nigerians looks for one guy that knows how to fix CNG fair or affordable price in one corner you people will never go to a certified company to get it installed. Using CNG in car that was not installed directly from the vehicle manufacturer is a scam

Example check all this latest buses that comes directly with CNG installed copied neatly and it will work perfectly while all this installed privately is a total mess crazy wiring.

Before you install CNG, try to check how is install on like dangote trucks and or vehicles directly from China no be all this after market connection

So many people install CNG when fall price was around 500naira per litre are planning to unkit when fuel in almost 1300 tell me have dey deeply tell you why

Nawa ooo. All dese unverified talk Sha.

1. Another man’s wife.
Respect the marriage. That’s not your lane.
2. Anyone underage.
Minor.
Bro, avoid minors completely. It’s illegal, wrong, and there’s nothing attractive about it. Stay far away.
3. A man who behaves like a woman and wants to open his nyash for you.
If that’s not what you’re into, don’t force it. Know yourself and move accordingly.
4. Anyone who’s clearly using you for money, status, or clout.
Attraction fades. Being used stays.

This op sef u r part of the problem wetin u mean by statement 3 . ....if kwa

MoonlightDrive:
stop complaining just install 3 cylinders of CNG in your booth, and you are good to go at whatever price!

Bro I use cng and I can tell you I'm highly selective. Highly. Do you know some days I don't bother working cause if bad prices. Mostly I target 3 - 5 trips to gross 45k -50k.

Low self esteem causes theses things bro. As a man thinks so he values or rates himself

And this is irrespective of weather you use cng or fuel. That's y even wen u see most of these drivers and their cars that rubbish this work you can understand

MoonlightDrive:
My brother let us not be judgmental, life is all about grace, the race is not for the swiftest, but God's grace is paramount.

My brother Gods grace doesn't mean one sud be picking rubbish prices and not expect to be broke . Iz like you using basket to fetch water and expect progress while praying for grace. First change d basket and get a bowl then pray for grace.

Many Drivers are very greedy and don't think deeply. Their reward is in front. Dey go meet am

Jamie90:
Their fooolishness will catch up with them. One thing about a car is that it will surely test your savings. This is when you start seeing desperate drivers looking for where to borrow money and fix their cars, then go on even more ridiculous trips in attempt to pay.

A driver who has at least 2 million in savings won’t be accepting such ridiculous trips. It’s all those who daily survival depends on their car being on the road each day.

You see them wear dirty clothes and eating junk food all the time. That’s the life they have chosen for themselves. Poverty sometimes is a subconscious decision while success comes from intention.

Plain truth. The car will test their savings soon. Me no dey pity folks wey dey find urgent 2k to fix motor again cause na Dem Dem dey pick useless prices. If u pick good price u will see enough to save and sustain for that day. But no, na fastest fingers pay Dem. Slaving for riders that can't even afford to buy a car

Drivers are d real cause if this issue not even riders.

haykay2005:
What's happening to indrive. For the past one week now, I can't sign up I keep geting this at point of adding my picture

Update d app on ur playstore

Eazilyfe:
Most of them jst enter address, they dont bother to confirm the accuracy of the Destination. Because we have so many streets with dsame name. E.g Animashaun( like 4 streets & roads like this in Surulere axis)

Today, na Agege my rider dey go but na Egbeda be the similar street name wey Indrive direct me. Another time one dey go Mushin(Ladipo) but na Agege dey indrive. One lady wan make me enter Ajao estate traffic from Island when her destination na Ilupeju. Na when i dey speed climb oshodi bridge she con shine teeth from back dey ask me Where are you going?

Ave learnt hard from this that y every indrive trip as u enter d car before I begin me and you go talk where u dey actually go gan gan visavis what's on d app.

No more stories cause dat matter dey always bring long talk esp if na woman

@ where are you going.....where are you going bawo no be wetin dey app I dey go : . Riders eehhhh

Shimmaa:
I just had a very annoying experience
Why does map sometimes pinpoint wrong place as destination, I tried explaining myself to this woman but she’s making me sound more stupid with my explanation.
They booked Harvey road health centre and on inDrive and Google map, it’s showing barrack bus stop as where the health centre is but they are actually going to Harvey road in yaba, while explaining, this woman no wan gree o.

So this woman wan go yaba for this amount .

Wonderful
