Car TalkRe: Should I Be Wary About The Volvo Type R ? by nurey(m): 10:30pm On Nov 18, 2019
RZArecta2:
i don’t really have much business with water though, I saw one I liked but I’m scared mechanics will mess it up even on routine maintenance except I take it to a high end workshop or there won’t be parts in case I have to do repairs. I really want to risk it though
The Engine is the same 2.4L i5 turbo, I am guessing the tweak is from the turbo and ECU, it's around 50hp more than the regular ones.

from my research the shocks and springs are identical to that of the 02 Acura TL type S but even better, it actually performs like an air shocks but for the Volvo it moves with change in road surface depending on what drive type you select, so am thinking the sensor would have it's work cut out for it when it transverse the nonsense we call road.

if you decide to ship one in, try to make provision for extra brake pads brembo shyte (though may not be necessary cause I doubt if you will exhaust the speedo and need emergency brakes) and the shocks because they are a special unit and the ones coming with the vehicle may give way in a not too distant time.

happy hunting

Please how much is the engine and transmission of IS250 2007? Compared with ES350, would it be a better buy if the cost of these parts is a critical deciding factor?
IS250 is 4GR 100k in the market I don't know about the transmission

ES350 is 2GR around 280 to 3xxk for Engine and transmission is in the 400k range.

Volvo type R is the performance segment of the Volvo cars just the same way Mercedes has AMG and BMW has M3/5. What I want to know is if it’s okay to get something like a 2007 S60R for use in a country like Nigeria or its better to stick with maybe a 2.5T

On Edmunds, a consumer review warned about the expensive Brembo brakes and the turbocharger

Car TalkRe: Need Help. My 2001 Infiniti QX4 Engine Smoking And Shortening Oil by nurey(m): 2:49pm On Nov 18, 2019
lakun2013:
Please I have issues with my 2001Infiniti QX4. Engine smokes in the morning and after parking for a long time. Also shortens oil. My mechanic is suggesting I buy a tokunbo engine. Experts in the house, please help. Text or Whatsapp me 08080703505
Attn
Engine smokes in the morning and after parking for long. Normally engine shows smoke in the morning when you just start it which is actually steam not smoke and would only do that for 1 to 2minutes unless it is raining or the weather is very very cold.

But if you are certain Engine is smoking, what is the color noticed is it black, blue or what?

Also shortens oil

if your Engine shortens oil, it could be an internal or external leak, so check around the Engine area if you notice oil stains, also start the car and leave gear in park or neutral and depress the accelerator to 2500rpm then check the exhaust if smoke is oozing out then you have an internal leak (it's a 2man job)

I swear to God that car aint' direct tokumbo. It's a thing of changed parts and repaint. I am so mad at my brother that he did not involve me at this until it was this late. But i might send that dude to his early grave tho...he's so testing me, i bet even when i do so, i would post his corpse here on NL for people to read his news.
Oga calm down, it is just a car, your very first one and your brother would buy more after this. It is a first experience which is bad but not the end of the world.

My submission goes thus, a bird(Corolla) in hand is worth 12 in the bush. Check to confirm if the vehicle isn't stolen, if it isn't thank your stars fix the car and sell at a loss and learn your lesson or

fix the car and use it for sometime and see the outcome

As for the friend who stab you at the back

if you are a Muslim, 3 consecutive fast and midnight prayer is all you need to pay him back

if you are Christian night vigil is what you need to pay him back

if you are a traditionalist just read his chapter to "aye lala"

Custom paper is genuine and confirmed.
So what are you waiting for. Just price the car and pay for it then ship in brand new camshaft and crankshaft sensor and keep in the car. That's the only known fault of the car during my one year ownership and please ensure the OBD port is working because without it, kazeem go dey rape you left and right without mercy.

good day house, pls i am about getting a nigerian used 2004 nissan pathfinder for a relative. However, i have two major obstacles at the moment: One, i have many people telling me i should not buy a nigerian used vehicle because no matter how well it is inspected, there are problems dat are hidden and cannot be noticed by simple inspection and/or test-drive by a mechanic. Secondly, i am based in warri and the vehicle and seller are at ijeshatedo, surulere - would like to get a good nissan mechanic around dat surulere to look at it very well. Pls i need opinions from the gurus and experienced people in the house. Thanks in anticipation.
A used car is a used car and it may develop some fault which is the standard maintenance interval fault.

If you go along with the right technician he would ensure you buy a good car not a lemon, just have it at the back of your mind that a used car would need minor touches to put it in buyers taste while a lemon would need major overall of several parts to put it in shape.

What a good car, pay for inspection

want a lemon go inspect yourself

from the grill yours is between 01 to 03, don't use rubbish oil if it's a personal car because it would cause timing chain rattle and timing chain replacement is not something you want to dabble into.

Please room what's the difference between a Lexus Es350 2007/2008 model and Lexus es350 2011 model(both are foreign used)? Which is advisable to buy?
2011 has more revised things than the 07 and 08. it's adviceable to buy later models of a vehicle.

Pls what year is this nissan Almera and how much can the tokunbo cost...very clean and highly grade one.
This is a Nissan almera N16 saloon. 2001-2006 model year for UK and 01-present for Latin America so depending on where it is coming from, that will determine it's year of production.

As for price it is around 800k tokunbo for RHD upwards depending on hand drive, trim Basic, SE, SVE which has reverse cam, DVD and navigation and whether it was cut and join like the korope.

It is cheaper to buy in Ogun state and parts readily available there because it is used as kabu kabu.

This particular vehicle is reliable and luxurious than the Corolla if you look past it's manual transmission (which is more common than auto) the only downside is body falls apart easily and it is plagues by the cam and crank sensor wahala

Diesel is a complicated engineering to Nigerian mechanics, only few understand it's working principle.

Please look around for trailer parks or people who use identical cars like yours mostly garages where Peugeot J5, Ford Transit, Renault/Nissan cargo bus.

Whenever a technician is working on your vehicle and he starts changing parts anyhow, always be skeptical and keep those parts because they may not be the cause of your predicament.

Thanks chief. Should have taken pictures but was tired - twas an uphill task driving gently for more than 70 kms to the workshop, got in with only one leg, tyre - sump is fine, worried more about the rim (lost the tyre), and stabiliser/sway bar bushings (that shiit is sold complete as a toks unit for 85k). Bought upper arms, a shock and linkages couple months ago, didn't just have time to replace them.
There are 2 solutions to your financial predicament

1. Make we open GoFundMe account make boiz rally round support you, after fix, we all take turns driving round town for b00ty call or

lormarx:
will do that tomorrow and update u, is there anything specific that they need to concerate on .thanks so much
culled from a Nissan forum

I think you have a dirty throttle body and a dirty Mass Air Flow sensor. My Murano last Monday started to hesitate when I pushed down the gas pedal. I literally floored it a couple times and my Murano stayed put.
This is what I did to fix the problem. Ensure your motor/CVT is warmed up by driving it around for a while.
1) Get MAF Sensor spray from AutoZone.

2) Get Throttle Body Cleaner spray from AutoZone.

3) Take the intake hoses apart and reveal the throttle body.

4) Remove MAF sensor from upper air box.

5) Spray the heck out of the MAF sensor and set it aside to dry.

6) Get a rag and thoroughly clean the inside of the throttle body. Don't spray directly into the throttle body. Spray the rag and rub it down. Be sure to open the butterfly and clean it too. Also clean as far into the throttle body as possible.

7) Pull off the throttle body connector and spray the contacts with the MAF cleaner.

cool Spray compressed air into the throttle body and connector.

9) Lightly spray compressed air into the MAF sensor.

10) Put everything back together ensuring there are no leaks.

11) Perform an Idle Air Volume Relearn if necessary ( http://www.nissanmurano.org/forums/82-1st-gen-2003-2007/12180-bad-gas-mileage.html ).

Your Murano may throw a code that references an unusually high idle after this cleanup. If so, just do the idle air volume relearn steps in the thread above and reset the code. After I did the steps I have no issues.

AkanebiDollz:
Thank you very much for your prompt response sir. One more thing. Which version has its parts readily available and cheaper?
We import a greater % of our cars from US or north American market than Europe, though both continent offering may share some identical parts like shocks, legworks, Engine seating and mounts even same Engine and transmission depending on what was tweaked by the manufacturer.

So it's safe to say for the NA you get every part readily available, for Europe, some body parts and Engine internals may be unavailable
