The letters are arranged in an alphabetical order. Say they start from FA, the first set of plates will be KJA01FA..MUS20FA...BDG999FA. Then they move to FB and the numbering continues till they get to FZ. They should move to G when FZ has been exhausted and that's assuming they haven't already. We wey no dey lag no dey quick see these things

I don't think you can get the exact year or month by just looking at the plates you can however get an estimate. If I see an E plate for instance, I know the vehicle was registered at least two- three years ago.

CC: Pattybf .... Please throw more torchlight cheesy
okay I understand you, you can't decipher the year or month from face value. Except you work with the DMV.

The accord I sold was BG and the plate was freshly done in 2012

The sienna is CW and was done in 2014 so E would be around 2015 so you are right.

My neighbors Highlander is 2 to 3months old and is FX, I saw that Kia Rio having FY that is to say by next year Lagos would be GA then cause December, people go buy car for village yanga grin

Just cross your Ts and dot your Is. The worst that will happen is the delay.
can you please explain how to know year and month from the last two letters.

I saw two 2018 Kia Rio and they spotted FY and FZ as last letter respectively. I was also seeing F alot I thought it must be February and decided month is what is been used until I saw CC, EZ, BJ and I was confused.

dicksonadams:
might be because they are chinko shocks, sway bar linkage , before you bought the chinko do you use to change the bushing at about 6 month?
It's not shocks quality, if the shocks are bad, first guy to give way would be linkages, then the shock bushings and pad next is drivability issue, if you enter bridge divider or pothole with speed and you no hold steering well, sorry is your case.

The bushings are of low quality coupled with the fact of bad road, The Lekki Epe express way which is my terrain often spoils it. The good thing is that it can be managed nah after two years you really hear the sound continuously for now just 1 of the bushing is bad.

Is this control arm bushing?

Guy go buy trailer Tyre rubber make your mechanic help you insert am put as bushing, no more spending on bushings grin
Yes lower arm bushing and control arm bushing.

The Tyre thing has been suggested I have declined the offer I am afraid of fire due to type of rubber and damage to car parts due to forceful insertion of the Tyre rubber

Thank you for your response.

However, I Will appreciate if you can assist some maintenance tips and common faults. Also ,is it suitable for someone like me who's driving and buying a car for the first time. I have heard people saying there are particular products suitable for first experience. They suggest corolla but the dashboard is not appealing to me.
if you are comfortable with a coupe or convertible then this car is good for a 1st timer, not a robber magnet, I can't categorically say it's a chic magnet either but you won't have much trouble with the vehicle.

The year you are looking at has 2az for the 4 cylinder though it is from Canada I am not too sure if it experience the oil burn known for camry

Camry in coupe sir.
A solara is a Camry. if you want to buy a coupe or convertible Camry, it would be called Solara. The solara shares platform and part with Camry the difference is the design to make it more sportier since that is what coupe and convertible are known for.

A coupe is a 2 door hardtop or soft top vehicle.

A convertible is a 2 door hardtop or soft top vehicle with the ability to retract it's roof leading to an open roof.
