Tokunbo 2006 Honda CRV

Twonaira1:

Sir Nurey

Avalon is a full size luxury sedan, bigger and more roomy than the remaining two. Only engine and transmission is what I believe the Avalon has in common with the 2.

Camry is same thing as ES from 90s to 2011. Same engine, transmission and many parts are interchangeable to a large degree.

Heartbroken!

Please house help choose a better executive amongst the following with budget of ₦4.5m

Accord 2011/2012
Camry 2010-2012
BMW 325 2008-2010


And maybe any option better than he list above... But it must be rugged

Accord EX or EX-L with the 2.4L 4cylinder engine then the 2010 or 2011 camry with the 2.5L 4cylinder engine SE,LE or XLE is okay.

BMW is dicey I would say avoid it if you can

Please guys just changed my es 350 transmission fluid with Oando transmission and noticed it now jerks a little when changing gears. What can I do now pls

You pour Oando fluid in U660E gear nawa ooo. If it isn't upto one month you have hope but if more, my brother prepare to buy replacement transmission.

Change the fluid to Toyota WS, its possible you need to do drain and refill twice to remove the contaminated oil. If after that their is jerking or slipping, scan transmission first before attempting any other thing

Commercial bus are now very expensive. Sura to tow gate that used to be #200 is now #500. I no dey fight conductor, I know things are hard because I grew up in the streets, so I always have extra at hand and ready to play ball, people are frustrated if you annoy them you will collect wotowoto.

diportivo:
shei this price na before or after dem tiff brain box?

My bloda $ don increase, with brainbox and controls nah 10m nah

TomiSwag:
Please where can I buy this from and is there a specific brand

The brand name is ATF SP 3 you should get it in retail outlets like ladipo, trade fair ojo, etc. Or find a dealer online like jumia or konga

TomiSwag:
Hello house please I have a Hyundai Tucson 2008 what ATF can I use Dexron 2 or Dexron 3

ATF SPIII is the fluid whether the transmission is 4peed or 5speed. Don't use dextron nonsense if you don't want to spend 450k to replace transmission

But I've seen some Ssangyong with mercedes powertrain

Yes like the koranda it got license of the engine from Benz, but they are more related to Daewoo.

My condolences to the op. Many of us has had police brutality in so many forms, I have had 2 bad experiences of police brutality one in which I was unjustly arrested and I was driven from 6:30am till around 10am with my people looking for me for 3hrs because they knew the kind of person I am.

I would have loved action to be taken on that police station try and escalate the issue on twitter you could probably get a redress also tag FIJ they are very good @ investigating such cases but your issue is actually accepting you assaulted the officer that can work against you.

TPound:
If I recollect, it's the same platform as Mercedes Benz.
A Benz programmer should be able to program it

Ssanyong is related to daewoo then Mahindra, it's a Korean company they have no ties with the 3 star

Reelz:
Who will go for badly used Nigerian vehicles when one can get from Beniñ for a good price. Keep hoarding your vehicles for sale so you will make x100 from it, it will rust in your hand.. wake up.

nah kobo you wan carry enter Benin republic? The only thing that will make cotonu cars cheap is when you boycott paying custom duty and remember you are paying 2 duties, one to the Benin Govt the other naija Govt.

I am not a car dealer sha so i dont have any vehicle that will rust in my hands

Londonferry:
I don't see this model much on the road again. How good is it compared to the MDX model?

Very good, a bit technical, parts expensive but a very decent headturner

Reelz:
As they have opened seme border for vehicle importation.. the prices of cars will reduce well oo..

Keep dreaming, in about a months time car prices would increase by 40% as long as dollar to naira rate continues to go gaga

maik99:
Didn’t accord fix shaft issues from 09?
You have to be a pretty bad user for accord 09-12 to be giving you shaft issues

Yes there was improvement and it rarely happens but it does, you wont see pix because people have come to live with it

formaxy:
Thanks bro. Problem is I really need a good Hyundai mechanic. Most of them around are specialised in Toyota and Honda repair.

Liaise with gazzuzz he is at Ogba close to ikeja

Guys, I'm already getting tired of suspension issues with my Elantra 2014. Although I live in a bad terrain in Ogun state but the issues are still too much. The lastest is after replacing all 4 shock absorbers and faulty hub bearing the vehicle seems to bounce and creak when climbing portholes or rough roads.

Is there any reliable Hyundai mechanic around Ikeja axis or Berger?

Suspension work is not moi moi, it is an expensive and time consuming fix, anytime you want to change shocks, you should always ensure to utilize brandnew not tokunbo the you also change
1. All bushings in the suspension for both sides, lower arm, camber etc

2. Change all linkages to brandnew

3. Check the springs

4. Check the sway bars

5. Rubber of the shafts and unsure to check the bearings and grease the shaft if still good.

6. Go for alignment

Shaft issue for accord above 2011?

yes honda accord 8th gen 2008 to 2012

enigmatique:
I own a Honda EOD and changed its gearbox some time in February. Some time in May, I made the mistake of trying to travel with it without checking its gear oil level. The car gave me issues during the trip, but after I added about 2 liters of transmission oil, it started working properly I had to turn back to Lagos that night due to traffic though. When I returned to Lagos I went to service the car and used Holts Transmission oil to replace the old one (which had developed a smell during that failed trip).

Now recently I have noticed that the gear doesn't always click into reverse on my first try. Some times it clicks in one try but a lot of times I'll have to take it to another gear and bring it back to R before it clicks. What's the problem? Is it a gear switch somewhere or something else?

Prepare to buy another transmission again and this time around ensure you only use Honda DW1 fluid, expensive but cheaper than buying new transmission regularly.

Also EOD 2003 and 2004 have very sensitive gear ensure to change fluid atleast once in 2years if you can afford it.

And what are the reasons?

I am also indecisive between BMW coja and 2011/2012 accord... Not thinking of any Toyota comparison cos have had several experience with too many Toyota cars and they are not balanced and economic as Honda counterparts

Reliable
Less plasticky than the 12 camry
Good fuel mpg
Less prone to shaft issues compared to accord of that era

udatso:
Thanks boss. But can the 4.5 get it

I believe its around 5m but you can still search within that range you maybe lucky

NL1960:
Please guys and car gurus, what should be in the container in Pic 1

COOLANT

NL1960:
and how are the two components in Pic 2 suppose to work?.

They compliment each other, metal cap should be totally filled with coolant, the plastic should be half filled with coolant, both well locked.

GorillaApp:
What's your thoughts on 2006-07

Better than 03/04

PROPEACE:
Do you have any recommendations regarding year of manufacture, because on a certain site, someone complained about Toyota Prius manufactured before 2012.

They are good cars but need proper inspection to check their conditions and qualified technician to maintain and fix them

Toyota Prius
Toyota camry hybrid
Toyota highlander hybrid
Honda civic hybrid
Honda accord hybrid
Nissan altima hybrid (toyota technology was used)

Nah the explosive tendency of the CNG/LNG dey fear me.

But this is good, let more people switch yo CNG/LNG so the price of petrol can come down for poor people like me

Fabbyking:
Let me explain better. In need of a 7-8 seater car with atleast 240hp, My budget is 4m, wanted the 08 sienna but its above budget, so considering first grade used. Recently I was researching and came across the 07 pilot toks. Which should I go for?

Jejely buy toks pilot

Peugeot 206 stopped at 2006 replaced by 207. Peugeot engines aren't expensive sha depends on condition of vehicle. Go price engine and other contingency that needs to be done, remove from asking price

1. Since the documents are not in your name, when police ask who owns the vehicle, tell them your uncle or aunt depending on whether nah Male or female own the vehicle. You won't have much trouble with police if ur docs never expire.

As for road safety
1. Complete docs not expired
2. Drivers license
3. All your tires must be good and not more than 4 years after purchase
4. Fire extinguisher in good working conditions
5. C-caution
6. Jack and wheel spanner
7. Extra tyre
8. Smooth windscreens without any single crack
9. Plate number must not be faded or repainted
10. Extra fancy lights must not be present in the car exterior.
11. Bulbs for headlamp, brake light, signal indicator etc though the rarely check this ones.

As for the vehicle
Change engine oil and filter for the journey, buy extra fluids for brake and steering, check the brake pads and the disc, you don't want to be driving that far with faulty brake system it can make or mare you. Check the cooling system too cause bad one can double your arrival time even cause you to sleep in ungodly locations.

As for the vehicle I have mixed feeling about it, reviews says its reliable cause it's more mechanical than electrical shares part with nissan Np200 or so. Just ensure to care for the body parts, you may not find it easily.

I can see you are an uncultured bully and since you have $500 in auction bids, you can go ahead and import, then clear it and let us have your price

I won't blame the poor people who are derailing your thread but I will blame you, when e-rats are spewing nonsense you ignore them and never reply them, they are even helping you to boost your thread.

Another poor rat says the car no pass $500, what of auction fees, trucking to port, shipping fee, handling fee, custom fee etc. Even does he think $500 worth of vehicle is drivable in US. At #750 to $1 he wan buy tokunbo vehicle in good condition for peanuts. Don't reply e-rats again just market your car, happy sales op
