As agreed Gazzuzz you should have opened a fresh thread for the MDX because

1. It would serve as history to prospective MDX owners for that particular model year

2. Learning curve to both owners and technician of the J35 abi nah J37 engine and vehicles of those years utilizing the engine.

3. Reminder for future reference on fixes related to Honda/Acura product

number 4 isn't too important

4. Severe bashing and derailing of the thread for the fix which I was expecting anyway.

Every technician here has followers that rally round them, it's not a crime though because the difference we exhibit in life is what keeps the world balanced.

Midoda:
Bros no E320 in 2007 to 2009......it was replaced with E350 in 2006/2007

Did I ever write that E320 was available for 07 to 09. I only told him to avoid W211 except 07 to 09 because of SBC issues of later years.

Lots of fallacies in the video, things you can't prove beyond reasonable doubt.

Very Abusive person from females, to Africans to Nigerians, car owners and mechanics.

Very offpoint video jumping from bamboo to mango tree haba

Very fake attempt to mimick foreign accent defeating most of your pronunciation.

But I enjoyed your computer electronic problem everything nah computer electronic problem.

He didn't even touch the most basic thing in car inspection nah to rush go find odometer be him major issue like odometer tells maintenance history.

He dissed Africans but still has bad mouth to come post in african focused site for free.

Good day guys , I’ve had a 2003 Camry , car ran good since 2017 but of late the faults have started piling up , paint job, AC,suspension, injector and most started from a recent overheating breakdown .

Which car can I get that is as reliable but also suitable for family outing and work in the 2/2.5m range ?


Your recommendations are highly welcome

Your budget if you are looking at toyota again would buy same 03 to 06 camry because of our failing economy.

you can get Lexus ES300 to 330 with that budget, Lexus Rx300, very smooth honda products like accord and CRV.

guruvick:
Good evening gurus in the house

What’s your comparison between Venza and Highlander(2nd Gen) but 3.5L engine

Family man highlander

funky guy Venza would do.

remember to check the oil cooler in the 3.5L V6 for the highlander, if rubber let the replace to metal because of unforseen leakage.

loba18:
Please guys I am considering one of 2001 BMW 318i and 2004 Audi A4 1.8. Foreign used. Please which one of the two is more reliable.

The BMW has a good driving dynamic, affordable parts but mechanic can be an issue.

The Audi A4 engine is extremely common, parts common to and very strong.

but overall I would pick the E46 over the A4, it is higher in reliability than the A4

Oh dnt be ridiculous my friend.

The jokes on you, get well soon, all mouth no action

SensualMan1:
U never could afford a Mercedes jack from onset.

I have never came across a law where it is a crime not to be able to afford something.

But since you took it upon yourself to worry about my finances, you can finish the job by paying for the ride on my behalf

SensualMan1:
Cc nurey
It'z a Benz.

Thanks bro but I can't afford another car now

Alabule:
Good Day Guys.
Pls I need the price of the engine and brainbox of 2009-2010 Hyundai Accent.

Also is it also possible to swap the engine to a cheaper one?

Rebuild it, price would buy you a clean naija used one accent

izaac23:
It's 195/65 R15

I bought Road X, X-motion 205/60R16 two for my vehicle in January, used it to cover 5k kms till now and still solid. Each was acquired at 18k per unit.

Don't buy Austone, double king too has adulterated ones, be careful out there

nonhuman:
Good morning car gurus, I want to get a Benz A clas for my wife to use for schools and other daily runs, I don't see much other that car on the road. Apart from its fuel economy which is the main reason am going for it what other things is good about the car, are parts available and will the cost of maintenance break my pocket, please I need urgent answers from everyone with the experience on the particular, thanks

toyota yaris, Nissan micra, kia picanto, hyundai i10 etc nah devil workshop you wan go buy

Mendy31:
Will be embarking on a road trip from Awka (Anambra) to Ogba (Lagos)

Plan on leaving by 5am this Friday or Saturday, will be driving a Toyota Camry SE 08

Will be going along with my friend @Regiz

This will be my longest trip , tho I’ve driven from awka to PH , awka to Umuahia

Will have my break pads changed and one of the rear tyre

Vehicle is in great shape all round

Will keep the thread posted

hope your glasses aren't tinted and if tinted hope you have a permit.

for that Camry expect to be stopped at every police check point for your return leg and hope the documents are in your name.

if one document is missing expect to be delayed by police settlement

Deigofortune:
Pls Guy I need your advice on Car to Buy between Camry 2007 sports and Volvo S80 2010 3.2

On all clarification includeing on fuel consumption and Cost of maintenance

leave the camry except you are interested in fuel economy with the 2.4L i4, the volvo S80 is a sweetheart in metallic form, parts are available though not as easy as the camry but if you treat it well, the Volvo will do you good

drakeskull:
Educative but how does one know when to change the gear fluid? What colour denotes that

don't wait for the color yo change but from what I notice
pink abi nah light red still good/fresh

light brown need to change this one will work along with year the fluid has stayed

black means all is not well.

Carstuff:
I am much more interested in the reliability. It will be used for inter state travel occasionally so really wondering if there is anything i should be worried about. Cost of parts when compared to Camry of same year?? How is the transmission as i have read Honda has some poor transmission.

Thanks once again.
Others who have used this car

It is a reliable vehicle and has good fuel economy, acceleration is top notch and you won't have transmission problems as long as you don't utilize wrong transmission fluid even for 1 day. Change transmission fluid every year if possible or 1 and half years, any sound on the front legs should be checked and always better to buy tokunbo shaft than brand-new.

Never use rubbish power steering fluid, brake seldom gives issues because all 4 are disc no drum.

Engine is timing chain but the single drive belt should be changed when you notice issues.

Door and window electrical issues would come but can be easily fixed, ignition key teeth too fails often and has to be re- aligned key would pop out while engine is on, not a common occurrence.

Above all car is highly reliable and long distance capable

Mayor555:
Exactly tuned higher...moves faster...

Yes too, that cover is his confusion.

It's possible the engine cover was just swapped but the K24 with that silver cover is different from the black and even the black cover too are different. There are around 6 to 8 K24 engines all look alike but with different hp and some diff internal parts

Came across the vehicle for the first time ever in 2018 at Iwaya Lagos at the back of queens college lagos, thought it was one of those nonsense 4 banger BMW until a topic was opened about the vehicle with a V8 engine.

I still saw it a couple of times red colour and functional don't know whether it still there, I believe there is a bmw enthusiast there because there is also a Z3 around there too.

It's not steaming because there are no more rats living in the engine bay.

sonofspada:
Good morning.

Im about to buy a kia Rio (manual) 2012 . I love manual cars yeah.

I found 2 different Rios im confused as both have different dashboard display,


I would like to know the difference between both with same year . Pix attached both cars front view and dashboard display.

Experience and genuine explanation need!
Cheers

First one is far better because it has a temp gauge, the second one only has temp light which is rubbish because car would have overheat (damage done) before the indicator warns you

radautoworks:
thank you! Controversy kwa?

Yeah thread topic noni

Anibiniran:
Pls you can do better.......am personally encouraging you, at least you know the different between 220d and SR

Stop arguing, the car was converted,

The handbrake lever is a clear indicator to the fact

The wipers too are in the wrong position for a direct LHD that's another give away

The plate number holder is wider depicting UK vehicle and in UK they use RHD vehicles.

it's converted doesn't mean anything as it would be easy peazy converting the IS since LHD parts are bound in the market. The issue is if it was done well and only physical inspection and a test drive would determine that.

Stop arguing, accept the fact that it was converted you probably are a middleman and no crime in that either, focus on your sales, happy sales
