I just don't know how these clowns always think they know a car better than its manufacturer.

Op, if you are in doubt, pls consult your vehicle manual.

I don't ve d manual, any ideas where I can get one. Toyota carina E 1996

My car tachometer shows green light wen I am driving economically usually nt above 2500rpm n orange light wen I am drivin uneconomically mostly above 2500rpm wen I push gas pedal hard for quick acceleration. So it depends on ur interest

kendrick93:
absolute rubbish. if enyeama can't make saves then what is he there for huh? he is d fuckin goalkeeper and dats his job. he is part of d team,his own job is to keep d ball frm entering d net.. so stop sayin bullsh1t

Do u kw d meaning of saves in football. I doubt u do otherwise u ll understand dt its nt every goal keeper dt can stop a penalty. So shut ur dirty mouth n listen to learn

Slickest:
Ur wrong!!!we ar second on d table

Cool bro bein sports misinformed me make I go modify dt post

Johniyke2flex:
Then you better modify it cos the last time I checked, Nigeria overtook congo with a goal difference of +2 while congo has a GD of -1. Nigeria sits on the 2nd spot on the table while congo sits at 3rd.

Seriously bein sports table misinformed me I guess

donbenie:
Congo is not ahead of us,the rules is based on head to head after points accumulated and based on that we're second..CAF rules..

Bein sports placed congo ahead of nigeria in their table I hop dey r wrong sha

Johniyke2flex:
What is this one saying? You are the direct opposite of your name!!!

Son Dts my opinion let's ve urs

Keshi has nothing more to offer to our football. He won d match bc of enyema saves n nt bc of much frm him.

Is congo still in second position wit this result welldone samuel

RotrEmmanuel:
.. well said brother! I'm not really lazy as you think and mind you it's not even upto a month that I Passed out of NYSC, if I was a lazy fellow, I wouldn't have come up with a thread to seek for the way forward .
No man is an island of knowledge.
if u have any link to someone that would give out Taxi, keke on HP feel free to assist me ASAP

Bro take responsibility for ur life n stop blaming ppl and situation. At one month post nysc u r still fresh but u need d right mindset if u ll move forward. One major positive frm ur background is dt they trained u up to hnd tnk God for dt n start husslin for urself. Also learn to pray n God ll bless ur hussle. Some ppl lost both parents B4 they turned 4yrs n yet they made it in life.

Chillisauce:
All these stories of my father's mistress, divorced ex wife blah blah blah is no problem, the situation is you getting a job.
Don't you have a friend you could stay with while you hustle a teaching job. You are probably getting free food in your parents house that's why you seem laid back.

Carry your bag, look for a friend to squat with, then go look for a job. Even if it means working for little pay to gain experience.
You are done with Nysc and should be able to fend for yourself.. Quite the pity party and go do something beneficial.

U jst said my mind op is probably lazy n enjoying his comfort zone. He gets free food n shelter n still talkin as if his background is d problem. D real prob is dt u ve refused to quit ur comfort zone n go n earn a living. Ur father won't live ur life for u so free d old man at least he has trained u in sch.

Anybody dt is totally jobless is a lazy man. There is a lot things to do lik teachin in primary n secondary sch or even goin to construction site to do job man if ur ego ll allow u. U can also ride taxi, bus or keke on high purchase. Op go n hussle otherwise ur situation may nt change soon. Nothing humbles a man lik hunger but u r gettin free food n shelter n blabbin.

Wats funny

senator2k9:
Yes bro, my hand brake stops it frm moving. Maybe urs needs adjustment if not it should also

Ok I ll see to dt

senator2k9:
What ur mechanic did is d right thing, dat how I check mine too. I put d car in "" pull d hand brake and go out n checK d ATF level.

Haba does ur handbrake stop ur car frm rollin wen d car is runnin n engaged in D. Mine doesn't ooo my car ll roll esp if it is on a non level surface. So one needs two hands to get d job done ie d brake must b held.

I always buy fuel frm abt two filling station so ve nt experienced this yet. I always ve this in mind while buying fuel.

Faithte:
Please I need urgent advice. I'm a single lady that works here at the Island, I stay with my cousins which means I have 2 feed, cloth and even pay necessary bills. I notice that my salary of N35,000 does not carry me thru the month. So pls house, how do I survive with this so as to avoid borrowing b4 month end. Thanks.

U need a loaded man in ur life ie if u ve wat it takes to get d attention of one or else u jst ve to manage urself with wat u ve while looking for a beta job or extra income

Shld dt matter onces u r of d same faith ie both christian or muslim

Hi folks sup, so I noticed my atf was leaking as I ws driving out yesterday so I topped it and managed it dt way yesterday bc d leak ws very minimal. Today I went to see my mech to trace d leak and it ws d gear box oil seal which he losed and replaced. To my surprise wen he ws replacin it atf did nt gosh out wen he removed d old seal n he shouted oga ATF no dey ur auto gear n dt would ve killed d auto gear if u waited further. Meanwhile this ws something I jst topped yesterday n checked its level.

After everything I showed him hw I usually check my atf level; when d engine is hot n I will park on a level ground n check d hot max level on dip stick. D mech said dt I can't get accurate check lik dt but by leavin d car runnin with d gear in D while holdin d brake n someone can nw check d level. He used his method n added abt 2litres of ATF oil to guage my atf level.

Using my method d fluid is well above d dip stick hot max level but he told me everytin is ok.

So guys hw do u check ur ATF level n what do u think abt my method n dt of my mechanic. Any danger in having too much ATF in ur transmission

Primera is no match to orobo. Once d engine size is d same fuel consumption ll b almost same. Orobo is more rugged n ll withstand tear n wear on our road beta. Parts r there n an average mech can handle it. D only place primera can challenge orobo is fuel consumption esp 1.6 l primera. Once its 2.0l it won't beat orobo in fuel economy other things workin at factory setting

GodMode:
DjAndroid... Your answer(my opinion):



Like what uwa1 Most Nigerian men are looking house wives... They are insecure and want women they think they can control..




From ogawisdom view,

Most Nigerian men are insecure and already conclude in their minds that corporate ladies(high standard) are b*tches..
High standard ladies would leave the responsibilities of the home to a house maid and cook..

Do u kw d meaning of insecurity ...... I doubt u do. This is abt personal choice, I dnt believe a woman can make a good wife n mother in certain career n d no 1 is banking. A female banker ll make a good match only for a lazy house husband n nt to another busy man.
I dnt want a house wife but one with a flexible work hours bc I am very busy too. Busy husband plus busy wife equal to disaster home

Busy wife plus less busy husband equal to average home

Busy man plus less busy wife equal to good home

Less busy man plus less busy wife equal to poor home

Ceteris paribus

I still want a wife dt ll serve me breakfast n dinner daily n this helps our bonding process n nt one dt ll hit d door rushing for work b4 4:30am lol
N returnin home at 9pm gosh some men dey try sha to marry such. Its my choice n nt for all sha.

A female banker is a no no they r used by both their boss n some rich clients. Above all their schedule is tight. Wat shall it profit a man to marry a female banker dt is already married to her job - female bankers can't b married by a productive man but by unproductive men but they look down on them hence they remain single. A woman shld nt b too busy for her home she must b in a job dt is flexible to me.

secondary virgin pls op can u break it down for us.

At 19yrs she has dated 4 guys dts a record. She shld stop dating if she is nt interested in sex y is dt sooo difficult to figure out.

U got creative writing skill but needs to sharpen ur flow this story is nt a bad one. I expect sth beta in d future

A lot didn't added up in d storyline so its miles aways frm reality

A blinkin CEL indicates a more serious issue than a steady one. My cel has been on for d past three months and three of d best mechanics I met in my area said I shldnt worry dt is normal with older cars n it won't affect my car in anyway. One said its caused by bad fuel imagine, I kw they are all wrong n am surprised non can handle this problem.

I ve done my diagnosis using internet n I kw d problem is my oxygen sensor. I am making arrangement to buy toks oxygen sensor as I can't find d new one in alaoji market aba.

My car takes 22l on 100km city drivin, dts crazy for 1.6l 4A FE engine auto carina e

I kw ppl who doesn't kw wat CEL means and has been driving their car for over 2yrs with CEL on with no problem although they must b buyin more fuel sha

Op ur car is dying bc it takes roughly 62.5L for 100km Dts a bad record
Do sth asap even if u ve fillin station where u refill freely

GoodlifeNigeria:
This is a serious matter and I need matured comments and advice.

I am a man in my early forties. I used to date a lady then before I entered the university. She is not from my tribe, she's from another tribe. My parents (dad & mum) strongly opposed the relationship and told me never to ever marry her. I initially didn't understand what they were saying then until after sometime when I now discovered her evil character. But before I could realize her character, she had already gotten pregnant while we were dating and had a baby for me then before I entered the university. The relationship ended then and we went our separate ways. Pls note that I never married her, we only dated.

My child is now in my custody. My parents are aware of everything and supported me all through. My parents have warned me to stay away from her and never to bother myself about seeing her family or the lady because of the evil things she did to me then.

I don't love her anymore and there can NEVER be anything between the both of us anymore. I already have someone else and we love each other. I have completely moved on and she (the previous lady) has moved on too.

The question I need you people to advice me is this:
I am thinking of paying her salary every month into her account as a way to compensate her. Since it's NEVER possible to see her family as my parents and other family members strongly avised me against seeing them, I feel I should compensate her for the baby. But she is very rude even on the phone. I haven't told her I'm thinking of paying her monthly, I'm just watching her for now.

Do you think it's ok for me to be paying her monthly? Or do you think I should instead pay her a lump sum? Or do you think I should not even pay her anything at all? Or do you think that instead of paying her, I should pay that money to her family?

Pls I need your candid and matured advice. Pls for God's sake this is a serious matter, so no insults or immature comments pls. I purposely gave my age range for you to know I only need matured advice pls.

Thanks in anticipation.

D child is nt urs bc u didn't marry her. D child actually belong to d girl family until u do d needful culturally, dt doesn't mean u ll marry her oooo. They ie d girl n her parents can show up for d child in future if they want to. Also they probably dnt want to b associated wit d child bc of d cost of raisin d child so u can jst keep ur cool or go to their place to demand wat is required of u culturally to permanently own ur child. Giving her monthly salary doesnt change anything. She is d mother of dt child forever

10k divided by 30days equal to about #330. To feed wit 10k monthly dnt exceed #330 daily n u ll b fine.

Eat d followin
Okpa
Moi moi
Bischuit n groundnut
Beans
Garri is ur best frnd learn to drink it
N any food/snack dt makes u drink plenty water.

Survivin on little allowance as stds no easy, I was at dt stage 13yrs ago. I chop okpa wella to survive at UNN
Okpa was sold bw 5 to 20 naira then, u may nt need to cook jst make frnds with bukas n mama put arnd n they can sell food of any amt to u like madam put rice #50 n beans #30 or madam put half plate of garri n soup abeg put soup well ooo then u carry am go ur room to do more garri frm urs

Jst get creative #330 daily can be managed if u no dey form as std b4 long wen u graduate n get good job u go become chairman/big oga lik me nw

If u ve laptop n printer then u can b printing documents for fellow stds frm ur room who kws dt can get u some extra money.

D pay is nt bad, I tink u shld continue doing this job until u can find another.

Ur pride n ego can't put 140k into ur acct monthly.

Many engineers with better qualifications than urs can't earn up to 50k monthly doing odd jobs lik taxi drivin, primary n sec sch teachin even recharge card hawkin

If u r really good it ll show in ur new role, swallow ur pride n serve

Some engineers ve been at home jobless for d last 10yrs without a job, count urself lucky to ve a job.

Ur problem is dt u care too much abt hw ppl look at u, ur position is temporary n part of ur life story. U ll share this story with ur staff someday wen u become MD in a top coy.

There is nothing better than havin a job dnt resign unless u ve anoda. Ur happiness depends on hw u think n nt wat is happenin to u

Op a tokunbo car is a used car changing of basic parts is expected after purchase which ll include

Battery 15k
Four tyres 50k
Oil n oil filter 5k
Oxygen sensor (if u r unlucky) 25k
Wheel balancing n alignment 2500
Others

Some naija used cars in abj for 2yrs may b in a better state than toks if well maintained n ll cost less to own bc d previous owner ve taken d initial costs off u

A car is a liability (lik a girlfriend infact I call my car my baby even though mine is loyal as I treat her well) n onces d initial repairs in a toks car does nt involve engine n transmission u shld nt complain much

U can't compare a car on 100k to 200k mileage to zero mileage (tear rubber), its more lik comparing d VJ of a girl of 16 with dt of 35 u kw its nt fair .

Brand new cars r d best but hw many nigerians can afford dt

Provided I earn enough to take care of my family y shld I b worried she is my wife d4 one plus one is equal to one.

I ll nt marry a woman dt is nt totally submissive to me

rainmaker12:
its a 1999 honda accord, bought at the rate of 460k
the vehicle licence expired a month ago pior to purchasing the vehicle, which i eventually renewed.

Ur car is most likely nt stolen n police kws dt but ur papers r nt complete. Try n settle with police bc a key paper change of ownership certificate is missin in d car particulars.

rainmaker12:
The particulars I got includes,
proof of ownership certificate
Third party insurance
Treasury cerificate
Treasury receipt
Allocation of registration number
Roadworthiness certificate
Writen reciept from the seller

There are no police report, vehicle license , car sale agreement signed with witnesses n most importantly change of ownership certificate (n I guess this last one is y police arrested u) there. Sth tells me ur car is nt stolen but police must chop frm u

Whose name is in all these papers, did u do change of ownership n I hope non ve expired

Ve u contacted d seller or do u ve difficuty reaching him or her.

Which car did u buy n at wat price bc d price u bought d car can help show u r innocent eg u can't buy a clean 1999 najia used toyota camry 200k n claimed u didn't kw it is stolen.

I hope u ve a decent occupation which can help prove u r innocent if eventually it is stolen.

Dnt panic ur offence ll b dt u received stolen car, u ll lose much money but ll b freed if u provide d seller.

Advice to all
Wen buyin naija used vehicle make sure u can easily reach d seller incase kasala
Come

Get his biodata, national I'd or international passport plus passports. A civil servant like teacher, lecturer, banker, lawyer, doctor n registered car dealers r d ppl dt r easily reached.

Op do well to tell us d username of d guy dt sold d car to u on nairaland may b anoda person ve an experience wit him good or bad b4 we can label him a criminal

My take
