Nonywendy:
how do u cope

I needed a phone badly in a remote location, I just bought a new itel the cheapest of the devil's to reduce my loss when I get back to Lagos and intend to resell it.

I have never for one day regret buying itel it function superbly pass my expectations.

you are very proud considering you are asking for help. Enter filling station and enquire, nairaland is not a stall for oil sellers

Zuchomarnia:
Considering the fact that Camry Orobo as they usually call it is old; given that it lasted model was 1996.

So, this year, is it advisable to buy such a car? And also, give many alternatives to it—which one can get instead of of it; at a modest price, thank you.

rather use the money to buy a kia picanto recent or Nissan Micra. I don't subscribe to buying old cars, they aren't trouble free and their spare part in the market are about to die too

So I was thinking to myself and a thought struck me, why not buy 40feet containers and design it as a building, roof it and pack in. I believe it will be faster than block building and all the stress of labourers and supervisor removed , you have your 3 bedroom or even bungalow in a matter or a month or less.

I have seen some pretty designs online I have also come across a few in Lagos, any disadvantage why we don't utilize this type of building in Nigeria? I know it isn't about rust cause those container a rust proof for years to come.

please superior ones do enlighten me as I am budgeting around 2m for one probably next year

snap the TV interface

DadR:
Thanks for the feedback.

For clarity and to be sure I understand you clearly.

If one uses a 2015 Accent 1.6L engine and the engine gets damaged, one can purchase a 2.0L engine, ECU and fuse box, and swap without any issues or side effects?

2.0L engine costs how much please?

Regards,

yes you can swap without issues it would fit nicely but you may still need other minor addition like radiator, engine seat, AC units etc only the technician will determine that.

I don't know the price of the 2.0L engine but should be cheaper than the 1.6L engine

Freest:
Guys, I just got a Honda Civic 08

But it doesn’t have ground clearance. I’m thinking of raising the shocks. Kindly advise if there is any disadvantages to raising the shock absorber

Thanks in anticipation

CC: nurey

Rather switch to 15 or 16inch rim with a corresponding big tyre that won't touch arc wall

DadR:
Chief, can someone switch from 1.6L to 2.0L engine?

yes you can if the vehicle in question was offered with one. you just buy the engine, ECU and fuse box and you swap.

PrinceDave001:
Engine size 2.0, I'm really interested in getting that car if I choose economy over luxury,although I know I wont get the power of my accord from the Elantra. But if I choose luxery,I'm thinking of either a lexus es330 or 09 accord-2.4 engine.

I believe the 2.0L should be around 350k for replacement.

PrinceDave001:
Oga nurey,please what's the cost of the engine and gearbox of this car.

no idea for that, ask gazzuzzlogistic and be specific about the engine 1.6, 1.8 or 2.0

Attention seeker, you shall be indaboski-ed very soon, Oniranu omokekere Ara galatia

DadR:
Hi, trust you're good.

Please do you have an idea of the general cost of maintenance for a 2015 Accent, cost of engine and gear ? Any typical issues with it?

Thanks

if your accent isn't the 2.0L then your engine cost around 650k, I don't know the gear cost sha. Also thise lower litre engine especially bought brand new in naija with 1.6L engine, the engine was built not to be repaired so any overheating that is severe, that is the beginning of the end.

Then the compressor of those years give up the ghost anything around 100k km mileage

Your query isn't detailed. is your Accord coupe 4cylinder or V6, where is your location, you can't get a brand-new engine for that year only a fairly used one.

creating one is a good idea if and only if it won't affect gathering of information in this thread. Also know that NL will have more information always available than WhatsApp

Hyundai Elantra 2007 vs Toyota Corolla 2007 the battle of the 4dr compact sedan, a message from our sponsors before we begin.
Do you have a large family and you need a car for cargo, fun driving, mild off-road and top in reliability, the new Nissan Xtrail T32, 2.5L 4 cylinder 170hp, 4WD drive with 6speed CVT, HID lamps, HUD interactive screen and computer assist driving ensure your family goes out safe and return in one piece. Nissan Xtrail conquerer of the jungle available at dealers near you.

engine, the Elantra has better hp and torque not necessarily better in driving experience to the Corolla as both weren't built for spirited driving
Hyundai Elantra 2.0L 146hp
Toyota Corolla 1.8L 132hp

fuel economy the Corolla with it's 1.8L is perfectly intune in fuel economy.
Elantra 32
Corolla 35

Reliability index, Corolla riding on the popularity it has had several years ago, while the Korean vehicle though fairly new in the pack but a successful all through beating others that came long before it.
Toyota 1
Elantra 4

Parts availability
I will pick the Hyundai here, parts are original and strong too, the Corolla is also solid but if you don't shine your eye well, you will buy more Chinese cloned parts than the real deal.

Technician know how for both is a draw, you will find Hyundai or Toyota part even in villages or less developed community and they are also interchangeable for Hyundai and kia in several models.

Luxury, the Corolla Altis is a high end vehicle and some Corolla 03 to 07 come equipped with 6CD changer. Some Altis have DVD with backup camera and leather seat.

Verdict
the Corolla is a highly reliable vehicle tested and trusted but a robbers magnet and vandals cash cow so always secure it and park in a compound for safety and off course insure it.

The Elantra is good solid and reliable too especially the US Variant with good safety features, doesn't have a good resale value though and doesn't age well compared to other competition.

thaqib:
Hyundai Elantra , so sorry

Hyundai Elantra that is everywhere you go like MTN
well it is a good vehicle buy it if that's what you can afford

spartanian:

ummnasreen:
Hi, I am having a serious problem with my mazda premacy. I bought the car (foreign used) in February. It seems the car has a lot of rust in it, cos I've worked a lot to fix that. The mechanic wanted to change the plugs but they had rusted so he had to remove the top cylinder first before using heat to remove and change the plugs. The day after his work, someone went out with the car and in the process, experienced a crancking sound like a friction between metals... the person continued with the car, the car stopped and wouldn't move. That's the situation uptil now, the car has refused to start. He tried changing a sensor, but it's not picking. Please what could be the issue? Thank you.

physical inspection is the only diagnosis. metal fillings could have been lodged in engine when the plug was been removed.
he should first check the engine by moving the driving pulley if there is resistance engine has kpafuka, but if all is well next is to try spark/fuel/Air and see what is going on there.

@nurey @heavenlybang, Rav4 owners and others , i would appreciate your views on any of number 1-3 below please.( Number 4 has been duly clarified)

I want to know if i should be worried about getting a V6 RAV4 as opposed to the 4 cylinder variant.

yes the V6 RAV4 moves I can attest to that

yes there is a difference in gear box cost i4 is 4spd while V6 is 5spd but I have never known rav4 to have gear problem.

the only special problem you will face is almost general to Toyota shock quality. but as advice focus on Fwd not 4wd

driving:
Please give me a reason to drive behind you in my 745i.

The major reason is because the car was made by man not aliens when something breaks you fix it

driving:
Good evening, I have been having sleepless night deciding what car to buy between 2005 Infiniti fx35 and 2005 BMW 745i. I love both cars. I drove both cars while inspecting them on Thursday. I love the BMW more, but the electrical parts are expensive though the mechanical parts (underneath) are same price with the fx35 if not cheaper self, but what if the electrical parts fail at the wrong time ?
Then, I want a car any mechanic can repair, I don't want to start looking for one BMW mechanical jor. Then I don't like the radiator wahala of BMW, I meant the way they bleed it when adding coolant. What if my girlfriend wants to add coolant I am not ready for any complex system, I want peace of mind. A side of my heart is telling me to buy the fx35 if I cherish my peace, the other side is saying go for the BMW 745i and enjoy a highly tech ride that's capable of making me go bankrupt. The road to my church is not tarred, I am aware the fx35 is not an "offroader" but the ground clearance is enough for me. Sorry for the epistle, I am just confused!

You are not confused from your writeup, your money your choice.
