RZArecta:
They're all reliable, used the two Honda's with no regrets whatsoever, just get a well maintained vehicle. All those 4wd talk isn't necessary because I doubt you'll ever want to drive in the jungle or Dakar Rally
Until you enter sand or slippery muddy road you will know the usefulness of 4wd system.

Please help me decide between a Hyundai Elantra (2012-13) or Accent (2012-13) model as my first car. I was told the maintenance cost of the accent is higher because the parts are rear in the market. I intend using the car during the weekends for bolt services.

I'm also considering the Honda civic, but I don't the exterior of the car.
Buy Elantra bigger and better, still economical with better and more reliable engine than accent

Budget is now 4.5m. Looking to get between Highlander, rx350 mdx Which year of these would you recommend. Or if you have have any other good suggestion.

Reliability with a bit of luxury is what i am after.

Thanks
4.5m should get you tokunbo highlander 2002 to 2007model years

4.5m can't get you a tokunbo RX330 not to talk of 350, nah naija used got you for your budget.

Not too sure of MDX price but just maybe the 4.5 can get tokunbo 2007 or 2008 sha.

For me the RX is the best choice here reliability well balanced with luxury and having a moderate fuel.economy.

The MDX is a superb machine for racers and those who want performance if you can fuel it

The highlander is just your normal run in the mill vehicle has all the works but lacks that refinement in luxury compartment.

The only other vehicle I can recommend is the infiniti FX35 it packs a punch among the bunch. Fuel economy is same as the MDX it is reliable and luxurious too and not bad when it comes to movement, parts are available but body parts are expensive though readily available

ftpompy:
Which of the 3 suv is best for private ise
Only honda pilot is the SUV here, the remaining 2 are CUV.

Though I don't know what year pilot and trim but the 08 CRV has nothing on the Lexus. The lexus is far superior interms of interior and accessories available.

CRV has a better fuel economy and also reliable among your choice, offroad it would deliver if you have one with real time 4WD and what's more the technology is easy to maintain and not cumbersome.

The RX has plush leather, dvd screen that shows mpg, warnings and some important information, also reverse camera, the 1mz is reliable and the 4speed is reliable though the 4wd isn't problematic but most error comes from those with VSC and other advanced electricals when faulty you may have speedometer issues.

The pilot has a standard 4wd different from the crv and RX, very responsive and more capable, it has a 3.5L V6 which is reliable and a solid transmission not too luxurious but neither is it problematic.
Bigger cargo space and 3 row seats for family and friends. Just watch out for underneath rust if to be used in water logged areas.

Is mazda 7 2008 model a good buy?
Generally mazda issues you may face in Nigeria is parts availability and cost next would be competent hands to handle repairs, they are sweet when still new with low mileage.

I believe its mazda CX7 you are asking about, I would just advice against it you can still try cx9 because it's a ford edge in another design would be easier to maintain than cx7 whose engine is turbocharged

Yeah 2016 or there about

Nigerian used Nissan. Had an overheating issue at bolade oshodi, change hose and some other stuffs was driving down from alakuko. Then KAI and lastman never dey hungry like now, they assisted me in pushing off the road. After fixing took off again and engine knocked on third mainland bridge as in all the works with the car puffing smoke grin towed it 5k to my house.

I learned some technicalities with the vehicle later on but still regret not buying the golf 3 cabriolet which was cheaper by 30k
Car Talk › Re: Toyota Sienna by nurey(m): 7:13pm On Dec 27, 2022
Nah naija used your budget can afford definently a 2grfe engine.

You need a professional to check it out for you, someone who isn't biased, the engine and gear are very expensive, the compressor for AC is expensive but a good specimen would serve you well
Car Talk › Re: I Need Nitrogen For My 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee by nurey(m): 7:07pm On Dec 25, 2022
Nitrogen is a free element and abundant in the atmosphere, the 7th most abundant element in the world, I dont see why you need it when the air suspension system can easily filter it from the air.

The suspension not rising isn't because of nitrogen but because to fix an issue isn't a million dollar scan equipment but transmitting the DTC into working prognoses.

Find another competent hands

Density would come to play, like 50kg stone may be easy for you to carry and small but when you see 50kg of feathers, it would be bulky and plentiful

Alloy rim is better, steel rims can bend when you enter holes at high speed
Car Talk › Re: Steel Or Alloy by nurey(m): 5:28pm On Dec 22, 2022
Heavy duty vehicles use steel rim, never seen alloy rim on them b4 as in 1.5tons upwards cargo vehicles.

Alloy also brings out beauty in small vehicles, light weight and stronger than steel.

. That I may not be able to answer. The seller only gave me the receipt and invoice of purchase.

I think only the dealer which I do not know or have access to can answer that.
If the car is not shiny and extremely clean also the plates are like 5years ago and already fading, custom no get business with you.

But from what I saw in the pix you uploaded in another thread, I dont think custom would even stop you to ask for custom papers you aren't part of their food chain.
Car Talk › Re: Manual/ Auto In Terms Of Speeding by nurey(m): 7:14am On Dec 22, 2022
Kelvin30286063:
Hmm, I use to console myself with the believe that manual is faster cos I drove two manual cars as a new car owner back in the days but since I started driving auto, I've come to realize that what you make up for in pick up speed in a manual car, it's all recovered back at the end in an automatic car. There is every likelihood that if you pick up 5 seconds earlier in your manual, the automatic may still get to the finish line before you for two reasons, if you're not accurate in your subsequent gear shifts while the automatic (with a good gearbox) is always 100% accurate and if you're so unlucky that the automatic has a pedal shifter, you're done for.
Don't forget that an automatic transmission focuses mainly on fuel economy combined with reducing wear and tear reason many basic auto transmission would shift gears between 2500 to 3000rpm except for sport oriented vehicles.

Then Auto would delay gear downshift in order to minimize fuel loss while climbing hills, a downshift would inevitably reduce speed grin

For your last line if everything is same between the auto and manual and the same driver was behind the wheels, if the manual lift off b4 the auto I don't see how the auto would eventually catch up

mejai:
I don't know about straight line/road race (boring Sha). But you see corner-corner road, nothing will make an automatic transmission catch up with manual transmission. Na there driving sweet. Nurey, I lie?
In this your corner corner race, you have added variables which cannot be controlled, if the automatic has a paddle shifter then it has balanced the equation then the skill of the drivers would determine the race outcome
