Pls I have mustibishi L200 2x4 2doors pickup (Fuel). I don't know how to get the year it was manufactured

copy your vin into Google and your information about the Mitsubishi would be listed

captainking:
oh..cos as part of my pre-purchase research.. I was told that price of the engine differs for both asian and American version... With one being more more expensive than the other..

looking at the engine type I can guess most normal civic come with the 1.6 or 1.8, the only expensive engine the civic would carry would mean you either bought a type R civic, civic Si or the Acura CSX which has same body shell as civic but sold mostly in Canada.

As I got home few weeks ago,my 2011 Ford escape just developed a fault.reverse gear won't go back and drive gear would drag and reluctantly move the vehicle.the worst part is when it's on neutral, the car cannot even be pushed front or back.i don't know why it's stiff.now the car is just parked in the house and won't move at all except to the front on drive.
please note there is no check engine on the dash,I can hear hummings from the transmission when engaged,recently it stopped but car still won't move.scans reveal no error code.vehicle is still tokunbo,not registered.i imported from US personally.transmission oil is full and not dirty.the confusing part is why we can't push the vehicle even when it's on neutral.I need an expert who can take his time out to come check the car in Idimu area of lagos.kindly signify if you can be of help and I would contact you with further info.if only the car could move,I would have preferred to drive it to an expert but it doesn't move and neither can it be pushed.
anyone experience this kind of issue before?

call a mechanic in your area to check

The drive shaft

If it's 4wd check the differential that links the both front wheels and rear wheels.

Also what happened to the car recently and what work was done recently. Also what is the title of the vehicle flooded or accidented?

Big Bros me I don't need money or anything, just get me umidigi A3 pro let me be umidigified and be umiwondered

CityNGR:
thanks..... great review lexus430gs condemned the phone

he only advice against buying a product the manufacturer had gone bankrupt also this product was released in 2016.

To be truthful I would have really loved the umidigi a3pro if not for its unavailability during the time I was in the market for a phone but I don't regret buying the leeco too people actually admire it too

CityNGR:
nurey your LeEco review is needed here!!!

Leeco wey people don review since. okay Sha

Leeco S2 X526 specs is
snapdragon chipset,
3gig ram, 64gig rom
16mp camera front 8mp or so dual flash rear
Dual sim
infrared blaster
3000ah battery
Android 6.0

The phone arrived April 4th I have not had any complaints about it.

The phone is smooth and fast the camera is fluid as expected it's better than Samsung S5 I have used, the screen is also clear and watches HD movies in HD.

The OS comes default with background data usage off which is one of the things I like about it, most apps that uses background data are shut out so my data last longer.

The battery usage is da bomb It last 24hrs tops sometimes more, though I am on edge most of the time, H+ is only for downloading.

The IR blaster refused to work with 3rd party apps (for my S5 I could control my gotv) but the same app doesn't work for the LEECO.

I am not a camera freak, I don't play music with my phone, the only game I seem not to get bored of is candy crush. I have not used the fast charger before I don't think I need it since we have light often and generator is available besides the battery is ok.

I am not bothered about the OS either but when I am ready I can always install custom yo have the latest Android. for this phone the snapdragon chipset is better than the mediatek.

HisSexcellency:
I believe this your analogy might be wrong especially the bolded because goods tagged "Belgium " are mainly secondhand and not brand new.

if goods used in Europe are manufactured in Belgium and Germany, poland, Uruguay etc are in Europe and we import used product from there what do you think the used product from there would be called?

Also read my analogy several times and see what I am saying

HisSexcellency:
I've observed that Nigerians refer to imported second handed products especially automobiles and other electronics such as tv, fridges, generator sets, home theatre e.t.c as Belgium.
Don't really know how or when this name came about.
Even building materials have Belgium

You hear things like "direct belgium ".

in the 70s and 80s most goods in Europe are manufactured in Belgium due to low cost of production. So any goods coming into the country have "Made in Belgium" remember we imported goods first from Europe before we looked to Americans that's where the word was coined from. It's use now is the herd mentality of Nigeria's, it has been over thrown though by "UK used" the next generation would adopt UK used and leave Belgium tokunbo and co

dannybrasky:
Lagos to Abuja b4 ibilo u go jam army check point with heavy road block and road bumps with barrels loaded with sand. While u are at that trying to manoeuvre from the bumps,and sand loaded barrel. You will have to stop and relate with the soldiers. 5 meters custom don already bring out their necks like ostrich cocck guns they await u if you still do agidi to try escape 20 meters from customs where one curve dey b4 u go jam another army checkpoint in case u choose to do James bond

If u are lucky and there is no soldier at this check point,100 meters from the last soldier u will see some hunger looking police men who would have been informed by the soldiers and customs say u don out run them

If they eventually get hold of u just make sure say your pocket full or you get better contact

Meaning in a span of 150 meters u have 2 army checkpoints,customs and our police is your friend

Forget all that talk bro, I go power slide, then enter corner through the side, I will then downshift to gear 2 @ 180km/h and Wala I have been force majeure through all the road blocks I learn from the best

seanfer:
Bros that can Only happen in the night.... During day time 306hp can't escape all the customs check points from Lagos to Benin...

Sure, he travelled all through midnight and paid 15k, but my reply was just a joke though.

seanfer:
The customs on SS/SE road is not like Lag/Ibd customs ooo.... All they will do is call the next team ahead of you and before you get there they will cause traffic before you know it those team you left behind is knocking on your window.... They will now charge you for making them waste fuel.. Those guys are more corrupt than our Politicians .

Story, when 306hp zoom pass the only guess from custom officer is "the wind for this night is much" they no dey see say car don pass.

HeavenlyBang:
I spent 15k on the road. Would have been a lot more if I didn't travel at night.

You were powering 306hp and you still dey press brake, next time be overzealous, stubborn, reckless like logobenz our in-house role model

aninweze:
Hahaha

They have prices for genuine paper, semi-genuine paper & no paper at all. .

okay thanks for the info, people like me when never go east no know anything.

GAZZUZZ:
Did lagos abuja, at night, saw only 1 customs check Point near okene-abuja rd.

But lagos to S.E benin and head bridge always on alert.

do they collect egunje from tokunbo vehicles even if the docs are genuine?

CityNGR:
where is the front cover?

It didn't come with it got lost during transportation including the remote control.

3Tsss:
A mum of 3 needs to ease stress,but don't have more than 200k,any one with one(automatic) pls contact 08117260497.
Tk u

There are cars you can get for that price but the automatic is the wahala there because automatic gear alone will shoot prices by 100k.

It better you leave it to a man to help you go mechanic shops around and look for cars that fit the budget, you should be looking at cars of 50k to 100k so the remaining balance would be used to touch important things.

please stay clear of most Honda accords

199x Honda civic US or Europe
Toyota starlet
1989 Toyota Camry very solid workhorse
1989 Toyota carina
1998 Kia Rio
1990s Mitsubishi lancer
Suzuki baleno
golf 2 (would be the easiest to get in auto)
Nissan products (bluebird, sunny, Almera, prairie, just may 2 door Micra)

There maybe some other cars within that range but which ever you come across ask for opinion b4 buying

Seanpizzy10:
Good Day Everyone, I just got a deal for Toyota Corolla 2009 model for #2 million to use for Uber business But the payment will be made next week. I need advice from nairalanders if I should buy the car. The seller bought it in November 2017 from USA And he said he wants to sell because he just got a brand new official car from his office and that he can't managed the Two cars. The vehicle has an insurance that will expire this Month. Please would you advise me to Buy The Car and What are the Things You Suggest I ask Him as this Is The First Time I'm Buying a Car. Thanks

When going into a business you start small and grow big as the profit troops in.

I am certain in 5years time 2005 cars would still be allowed for Uber.

why don't you buy something cheaper to start Uber with since you are testing the waters.

Honda civic tokunbo 05 is not more than 1.3m

Toyota matrix 07 below is cheap around 1.7m

corolla too 07 below is not more than 1.9 as tokunbo.

don't go and buy something you won't be able to afford the fixes when it breaks down

want to buy a Kia Rio, take a loan and buy even if the car burns to ashes without insurance you can easily pay back the loan in a couple of years.

Want to buy a G63 worth 100s of millions, save up to buy cause the cost of fixing broken down parts is expensive not to talk of paying back the debt due to financial loss, joblossness or health complications.

Eddee:
Still Available - apologies for derailing

How much for the fence only? also is it first cast?

greenhulk:
U don't even need a VIN. All that is needed is the devixe. Just watch the car owner patk his car and go into a store, then get into the store with him, place the device anywhere in the store (the guy said it can work up to 100m away from the key fob) and walk out with the other device to the car and voila open car door and drive away. No messing with keys or wires.

A lot of people use Faraday pouches to store their keys. Once inside the pouch it prevents it from transmitting (like a sleep mode) so it cannot be cloned But the downside is each time u want to get into ur car u will need to remiove the key from the pouch which sort of defeats the whole purpose of keyless entry.

The thieves the video is talking about are actually low-key ones but sophisticated enough to give cops headache. They actually strip the car and return it imagine the headache of tracing catalyst, airbag, oxygen sensors, nav screen, foglights. Then they return car and wait some weeks for you to replace those components and come calling again last last nah bicycle pesin go jejely dey cruise

larrixauto2017:
What kind of research is this sir? And did you know how the keyless entry system work on a car? I guess you don't know.

It may be hard to steal in Nigeria but easy in developed countries. All the thief needs is the VIN of the vehicle which he did use to clone the transponder if he has the software and tools the rest is history

kingreign:
So cos you were scammed of 90k you wanna make others bear the brunt by paying 70k when similar brand new is 70-75k depending on bargaining power?

I can't categorically say the real price of brand-new but the company I worked for bought this same generator manual no key start for 120k though it had 2 plug mouth and 2 tyres in 2017. I use the exact same battery type though I got it free of charge brand-new but the owner put the market value at 100k then he got it as a gift also brand-new.

if the generator is actually new his asking price isn't too much if it's the real deal original sumec firman

crowd cheering me on na figure of speech na.
Nigerians hardly cheer stunters.

If na speed go kill me,no wahala.tho I hope not.
I live my life a quarter mile at a time
No wife yet,no child or so.
When I finally get the c63,cruising down the highways at 300kph,manual mode so I can extract every hp from each gear,then I will be fulfilled
Imagine what I will do with 450bhp in a fully RWD vehicle
You guessed right

Godspeed with the reckless driving.

So all those "f" monikers you torment in Romance section never gree for you? behind every successful man is a woman, if you are successful and no woman except olosho at night then don't you think the problem is from you?

I think you should stop living life with reckless abandonment, there is a stage in life man must reach and he would decide when enough is enough. I will continue to pray for you the good book says the path of the righteous is treacherous and filled with great obstacles, he who the scales peel from his eyes would journey through to its end.

may the peace and blessings of the Lord be with your household brother, you can call me anytime for spiritual enlightenment I believe we can gain from each other

SmartMen:
You said it's brand new and I am seeing dust and rust under there. Bros, some persons have their eyes still working o

Rust or dust on the generator doesn't define it as not brand-new. I have a brand new generator in storage for more than 5years and it's showing signs of corrosion and extremely dusty the carton itself has started peeling due to moisture. What you see on that generator is corrosion not rust.

To bust the claim of the poster you simply check the engine oil orifice it should spankily clean I mean metallic with the oil golden.

The Airflow casing should be without oil or any dust that place is air tight.

The OHV housing should be without oil leaks and the seal Should still be intact

The removal of the spark plug coil should show a clean spark plug if you also loosen the plugs the piston surface should be shinning like a fresh bald head rubbed with groundnut oil.

All external body parts would show signs of aging depending on storage and environment it was stored in

Logobenz:
what happened to;
Sunday afternoons?
Nights after clubbing while trying to impress?
You can comfortably power slide if you take a corner b/w 80-100kph at wide roundabouts like garrison in phc.
Did it once at amadi ama trans amadi.
Many times actually
I also do burn outs on sandy surfaces.
When I get my dream c63,I go do am for tarmac too

You mean you slide to unlock your iPhone abi? cause all that power slide talk isn't it.

midnight after clubbing a lot of times yet that same midnight you have crowd to cheer you on.

yet on Sundays you claim roads are free but crowd specifically await your stunts

I will not talk too much so I am not tagged a hater or bad Belle but you and I know the truth cause I am closer to you than you think.

just take it easy Sha, I am not hungry for your burial jollof rice and chicken also we don't want to miss your superstory abi nah Talesbymoonlight

Logobenz:
yes.on Nigerian roads
I do it all the time and love how the crowd cheer on

Majority of roads in Nigeria are tarred with rough surface which aren't drift friendly not to talk of the roads not wide or secured enough to accept drifting. Your C230k or the ES350 were not made out of the factory for that neither did you mod them to.

can you actually drift in a corner with your Benz probably yes with speed but the road to do that in isn't available at your disposal.

I have told you several times when you smoke that shit just hit the sack instead of coming online and feeding us with superstory.

You can fool some of the people some of the time
You can fool some of the people all the time
But you can't fool all the people all the time.

Both fans start working when engine is hot enough & when AC is on. Even comes on when not in traffic. Is this OK? Camry 2005

whether it is Camry or PoRsChE both fans would start blowing when AC is on whether the engine is cold or hot.

The fan would come on at intervals in 1 or both (assuming the AC is not on) at traffic or regular movement. Engine temperature is supposed to be at a range which only the coolant can't keep stable hence when things are getting hot the ECU switches on the fan to help cool things back to normal when it senses drop in temperature the fans would switch off.

i don't know how people can hear their fans working when vehicle is moving. The only thing is when kazeem has run fan direct it tends to rotate at a high speed so you can hear it. On stock connection cars have driven I don't hear sound of fan I only monitor my car from the dash board gauge. Though I think some Germans like Benz and VW have loud fan noise

dejisvic:
Please kindly help me save cost if the need be, my two fan is not working until I on my car ac. I was told to connect the fan to match Nigeria weather. Please is this necessary since the car is not overheating? Camry 08.

When you start your car in the morning at cold start, both fans are not supposed to work.

when the engine sense the temperature is going above recommended, it would switch on only one fan but during traffic to complement the 1st fan the engine can switch on both fans as it seems fit.

the fans are not supposed to start working immediately you switch on ignition, they only come on when the engine temperature has surpasses a certain threshold and when the temperature is normal again, the fans go off.

both fans would come on whether the engine is cold or hot when and only when you switch on the AC. what you should be concerned about is not the fan but the temperature gauge, if it stays in the middle of the gauge whether fan works or not then you have no problem, if the gauge is above the middle mark then wahala dey
