Bros i fear pass you... A camry 2013 was towed to and has been at our workshop, mechanic yard kind of setting, diff ppl diff skillset . After mech works and the car could drive and they had panel beated the car back to life just remain the paint job but the dashboard was lit with all kinds of lights.. the dealer who owns the car asked that the lights be wiped he was told that dey will come back unless the problem is fixed... he said we ajah mechanics dont knw work.. he called some rewire guy from oshodi abi na ladipo sef... I was so interested in what the guy would do so i carry eye put... This mad man just pulled out cluster, identified srs bulb, check light bulb, VSC bulb and cut them, use pliers to pull the wire coating to expand over the cable inside on the supply side then on the bulb side joined all these wires to alternator light.... I wan faint... I ve heard crazy things but i was seeing this one... So everything lights up on ignition and goes off when engine starts... The only thing that will make those bulbs light na charging problem... And some will buy this car... If a full diag scanner is not plugged u go think say e no get fault.
I APPRECIATE YOUR HONEST COMMENT ABOVE. THERE IS ONE DEALER HERE ON NL THAT SHOWS BEFORE&AFTER PICS OF SLIGHTLY ACCIDENTED VEHICLES BEFORE SELLING THEM.

I HAVE NO ISSUES WITH SUPERFICIAL DAMAGE BUT NOT ALL THESE SEVERELY HIT CARS & FLOODED ONES TOO.

I HAD TO PAY FOR PRE-INSPECTION OF AN OREDERED VEHICLE FROM USA. THE LITTLE COST WAS WORTH THE REPORT PRIOR TO PAYMENT.

THIS PROBABLY EXPLAINS SOME NOISE OR CONSTANT ALLIGNMENT SOME BUYERS ARE CONDEMNED WITH......SO SAD

Thanks alot for your reply. Will still keep the big daddy . The big daddy is for hubby and he's just de do shakara anyhow with it of recent. I want to simply get my own and he doesn't even know I'm getting this. He will be surprised.

Meanwhile, I don't actually know the mechanic guy. It was one of the Young's driver that contracted the mechanic guy for me in PH there. The mechanic guy said the engine is very sound. It's just the airflow meter and the seller wouldn't even get it down to me in Lagos without fixing it.

Thanks alot. My mind is relax. The driver will be going to PH today to reinspect it as the seller replaces the airflow meter and now bring it down to Lagos .


Thanks alot.
I DIDNT WANT TO BE TECHY BUT AS SUGGESTED ABOVE A GOOD SCAN OF THE VEHICLE WILL REVEAL VIRTUALLY ALL FAULTS. THIS WILL GUIDE WHOMEVER IS REPRESENTING YOU TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION ON YOUR BEHALF.

AS FOR YOUR HUBBY... IM VEXING ON HIS BEHALF....CLEARS THROAT...SO DEAR YOU WANT TO DRIVE A CAR TALLER THAN MINE ABI.....LOL

WISH YOU BOTH ALL THE LOVE, PEACE AND BLESSINGS THIS YULETIDE SEASON.
Car TalkRe: Between A 2013 E350 RWD And The 4matic Which Is Better by NightHawke: 7:34am On Dec 07, 2018
kingreign:
Coming from someone who's always been driving AWD SUVs I'd naturally stick with the 4matic. That said, the rwd are more sportier to drive but the 4matic comes in handy on wet or slippery terrains.
WHILE I AGREE WITH YOU ON THIS, THE 4MATIC I SAW STRUGGLE WITH A LITTLE SILT WAS UNENCOURAGING UNLESS MAYBE THE TYRE ON THE SPINNING WHEEL WAS WORN OUT HENCE CAUSING LOSS OF TRACTION.

components in rwd are cheaper but that of 4matic are a tad more expensive. Also the 4matic weights a couple more than the regular.

As for cost of suspension components, Abeg ignore the cost you're buying an already expensive car ( TRUE) and I know you need to due diligence so you don't end up with lemon, these cars suspensions don't easily go bad. It takes lot of abuse and punishment to wear them out.

bishopkay:
Thanks alot Mr Nighthawke It was quite an enlightening post but on equal grounds, pound for pound, which would you be going for? The 4matic variable or the RWD if you had to make a choice now.
Apologies for replying late.

Personally I recommend the RWD over the 4matic.
I also recall during the last raining season when I travelled home to Delta State(Aniocha North) where we have red sand. Someone driving a 4matic got stuck after spinning wildly for sometime.

Same vehicle with snow tyres is a monster machine.

FOR ME GO FOR THE RWD.
HAVE A FAIR REGULAR MAINTENANCE PLAN

Pls someone should kindly drop an advise let me not carry a burden I can't replace. I'm a woman though I'm using big daddy and it doesn't give problems just only battery wahala until I got new battery . I've used it for 6 years now and needed to change car.

Pls kindly advise as I've already sent money to the money that will help me close the transaction. I might call him not to travel again. I'm in Lagos and the RX is in PH.

Pls anyone with any room response about fault airflow meter should pls advise me.

Just want to know if it's a major or minor fault in a car pls. Thanks.
1. GET A GOOD BATTERY AND CONTINUE USING THE BIG DADDY. ITS MAINTENANCE FRIENDLY FOR ALL.

HAVING SAID THAT-IF THE AIR FLOW METER IS THE ONLY PROBLEM...NOTE IF ITS ONLY THE AIRFLOW METER THAT IS THE PROBLEM AND THEIR ARE NO FURTHER HIDDEN PROBLEMS AWAITING EXPOSURE AS YOU DRIVE IT THEN GO AHEAD AND BUY.

PERSONALLY A SELLER NOT CONCEALING THE VEHICLE'S PROBLEM IS FINE BY ME. IF HE REPLACES IT FROM COST OF PURCHASE THAT IS ALSO FINE.

THE LEMON HERE IS; HOPING THERE ARE NO MORE ISSUES WITH THE RX. ALSO IS YOUR REP DOING THE PURCHASE WITH YOUR INTEREST COMPLETELY AT HEART AND WILLING TO WALK AWAY FROM A BAD BUY OR AFRAID OF MISSING OUT ON A LIKELY COMMISSION OR TIP
Car TalkRe: Between A 2013 E350 RWD And The 4matic Which Is Better by NightHawke: 4:45am On Dec 06, 2018
MY RESPONSE IS FROM OWNING AN S43O[2004] versus MY SENIOR COLLEAGUE'S E240[2004 or 2006] not sure.

Firstly both are great Mercedes Benz cars. [Love mine more]

1. The 4matic has more electrics and prone to more faults[ I think due to local driving terrain-our roads are second to Dakar rally]

2. I had problems with engine oil in first six months of use but thereafter there has been no effect.

3. The 4matic is designed to handle loss of traction on snow[Not an issue here locally]

4. The RWD S430 has brute force when it gets going with lots of confidence while driving[NEVER EVER LEFT ME STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY]

5. Should you experience jerking and traced to plugs. [PLSSSS CHANGE ALL EIGHT/SIX WITH HIGH GRADE TYPE IF NOT EQUAL AND NO REGRETS]

6. I THINK THE 4MATIC IS MORE SPORTY WHEN I DROVE IT FROM ASABA TO BENIN COMPARED TO THE RWD S430 ESPECIALLY BREAKING IN BETWEEN VEHICLES AFTER CARELESS OVERTAKING[ NOT RECOMMENDED]

7. THE S430 IS MUCH MORE QUIET THAN THE 4MATIC E240

I HOPE THIS HELPS AND IF YOU FIND A DEALER WITH BOTH CARS TEST DRIVE BOTH. HONESTLY I HAD TO CHOOSE BETWEEN A BMW520 AND THE S430. I LOVE THE VARIABLE SUSPENSION IN MINE[ THAT IS THE ONLY FEAR FACTOR I HAVE, SHOULD IT EVER FAIL; WHAT WILL IT COST TO FIX IT. I LEFT IT AT A SINGLE SETTING EVER SINCE AND GIVES THE CAR GOOD GROUND CLEARANCE]

ALL THE BEST!

I WONT TAKE THE SHINE OF OUR TECH AND CAR-BODY SPECIALISTS WHO DO A GREAT JOB OF MASKING WHAT REALLY HAPPENED TO THESE CARS IN OTHER FOR THE DEALERS TO SELL THEM AS ACCIDENT FREE CARS.

MORE ON THE LIST.

HONESTLY THE VOLUME OF ACCIDENT VEHICLES IS ALARMINGLY HIGH. A CONVOY OF 13CARS WAS SCARY. ALL BEEN TOWED AND NONE WITH SUPERFICIAL DAMAGE. THESE WERE SERIOUS HITS. CAN WE STILL TRUST VIN REPORTS? DEALER PICS? ETC.

Spiritualism:
You Are A Jobless Man, UDP Attacks Fani-Kayode over his scathing remark on Mama Taraba

Our attention has been drawn to the scathing remark made against our governorship candidate for Taraba State and the immediate past Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development, Senator Aisha Alhassan by a jobless and lousy ex-minister of Aviation, Mr. Fani-Kayode concerning the former's resignation.

We had wanted to ignore the lousy ex-minister who has been constituting public nuisance in Nigeria, but because he overstepped his limited boundaries by casting aspersions on our governorship candidate, we decided to reply the idiotic man for attempting to impose his myopic political views on Mrs. Alhassan.

How can Mr. Fani-Kayode who has never ran for any elective position in Nigeria be the one to advise Senator Aisha Alhassan on how and when to resign from her former position?

We believe that accepting the myopic advise of Fani-Kayode by Senator Aisha Alhassan is like the Pope accepting the advise of a Catechist on when and how to conduct Mass in the Catholic Church.

What other value does Fani-Kayode has to contribute apart from insulting people at will?

We therefore warn Fani-Kayode and his likes to keep-off from Aisha Alhassan whom God has ordained as the next Governor of Taraba State.

Asking how this would happen is like asking Donald Trump how he emerged as American President against public opinion.

We therefore advise people who have nothing useful to contribute to our electoral victory in Taraba State to keep quiet or face bombastic response.

Dont be too crital of the NPFL. There has been notable improvements of late.

This improvements has led to more global betting sites including NPFL games in their options.

On the home front. The N500,000 per away goal has seen away clubs scoring even minows punish the big teams too.

The issue of crowd control at the stadium is improving but with some stadia requiring more attention when their home teams host derbies especially accross the north.

Guaranteed security for the refs and match commissioners has seen an improvement. We now have away teams been awarded penalties irrespective of hostile home fans.

I think the league is improving with support again of intl tv broadcast of our matches.

Mfm, Niger Tornadoes, Ifeanyi Ubah etc have recorded vital away wins and draws and either 'shooting stars' or so.

Finally the Premier league, La Liga, Bundensliga etc all have softy matches whose results are questionable but games are well packaged.
(aka - your ticket cut)

Also considering that the original concept has tinted windows to rear of driver and front passenger.
