Car TalkRe: Is Toyota Rav4 1999 Model A Good Car by PAQ(m): 6:54pm On Dec 14, 2021
If you can get a clean one, it's a good mini SUV. Rav4 made its name from its early days, that's why the new models are priced as expensive as full sized SUVs.
Car TalkRe: Car Guzzling Fuel? You Might Need Replacing Your Car Catalytic Converter by PAQ(m): 6:51pm On Dec 14, 2021
Kelvin30286063:
Do you know that a lot of car users even remove their cats intentionally to improve fuel efficiency? Yes, that will burst your head too.
O yes, it's called a "Cat-delete".

. It's a mod car enthusiasts do on their cars
. It's illegal in USA & other countries
. It reduces engine load/ temperature and can give more
power
. Some cars actually gain better mpg while others don't
. People with modded exhausts get more louder
intimidating engine roar!
. It will trigger an error code on your dashboard
. Trigger emissions concerns & some times smelly fumes.

Our mechanics think they know it all, but there is so much about cars they don't know. Learning is a continuous process.

Your dad is only trying to safe guard you from the ills of society, he may seem over protective & thrifty but it's all for your own good. You have enough time to mingle, play, Waka and make your own money. When that time comes you will understand what your father has impacted in you.

Be patient young man you have the whole world to explore in due time.

Car TalkRe: Can A Corolla Be Upgraded To Corolla Sport by PAQ(m): 4:24pm On Dec 08, 2021
melviniyke2002:
nice,pls show us any picture of upgraded version
I am not a mechanic, depends on where u reside just enter auto market like ladipo in Lagos. Talk to your panel beater, check Google.

You asked a question and I have given you the answer. It's left for you to find the parts and a panel beater couples them for you. Even Camry LE can be converted to Sports, it's just bumper, headlight, skirts replacement, nothing big.

But don't expect a conversion from 2006 To 2008 or above they are different cars entirely. What u want can only be from 2003 to 2007 Corolla.

Below are images of both cars, check the difference, that's what you are adding to make it sports.

Car TalkRe: Can A Corolla Be Upgraded To Corolla Sport by PAQ(m): 2:28pm On Dec 08, 2021
Memberclub:
I have a 2006 Corolla by the way
The "sports" in a Corolla is just aesthetics, external modifications. There are no engine or performance differences between a Corolla LE, CE or Sports.

With that said, yes you can give your Corolla LE or CE the sports look. You'll just have to buy; front and back bumper skirts, side skirts, fog light, rear boot spoiler. If you have some more money to spare you can change the headlights, sports use smoked headlights. Then also change the wheels to alloy.

The interior of sports on the dashboard cluster have some minor differences which can be overlooked, you may also choose to change the side mirrors to turn signal ones for a full sporty look. Mind you non of theses mods are cheap.
Car TalkRe: Toyota Vs Honda: Battle Of The Brands And Their Models by PAQ(m): 12:52am On Dec 08, 2021
yesloaded:
grin

You can use lexus to replace Toyota btw

Lexus dey reliable too and not too cost to maintain with small touch of luxury
Non of them will give me the mpg the 2014 Rolla does. I commute almost 2hrs daily to & fro work, my monthly fuel expenses is what some people I know spend weekly or in 2 weeks. Lexus parts ain't cheap, a 2013- 2014 Lexus IS350 is almost twice the price of a 2014 Corolla.

If God's willing I am rich enough to have a fleet of cars in the future, I will always keep a Toyota Corolla/Camry for daily runs.
Car TalkRe: Toyota Vs Honda: Battle Of The Brands And Their Models by PAQ(m): 8:58pm On Dec 07, 2021
Without getting into details, to me; Hondas are finer faster cars, Toyotas are boring reliable cars.

In my small life, I have owned 9 cars; 1Peugoet, 1 Nissan, 4 Hondas & 3 Toyotas. I speak from small experience.

Until mid 2000s Toyotas were ugly, Hondas always wowed me with their models. I remember when I first saw Honda Accord 1999 model (baby boy), i loved that car so much that I owned an auto & manual from mid to late 2000s. Hondas are fun to drive, but today's economy and poor mechanical know-how has shifted my passion for fun to affordability, reliability and rest of mind in my 135hp, Corolla.

Car TalkRe: Best Cars For Women by PAQ(m): 11:31pm On Nov 27, 2021
SanctifiedSista:
Hi guys
Kindly advice what are the best cars for a young woman...the budget is 3 to 5 million naira, the confusion is too much
Thanks in anticipation kiss
The ideal car for a woman should not be chosen based on looks alone but factors like;
1. Practicality
2. Easy to maintain
3. Visibility/ easy to drive

I suggest you buy;
1. 2010 Rav4
2. Toyota Matrix/ Pontiac Vibe
3. Toyota Corolla 2010- 2013
4. 2011 Honda CRV
5 2013 Honda Civic
6. 2013 Hyundai Elantra
7. 2013 Hyundai Tucson
8. 2010 Acura MDX (slightly more than 5 mill, but
worth it)
9. 2011- 2014 Hyundai Velostar
10. 2010 Ford Edge

The two last cars are not particularly easy to drive or maintain but i love seeing women in them.

NwaAmaikpe:
shocked


Because I don't believe he did not know who his passengers were, I'd say he apparently died because he was stupid.

He was helping thieves escape and had the boldness to stop the journey to ask why their getaway vehicle was being rammed by their pursuers.

Even if he didn't know who they were, I still believe he died because he was stupid.
A wiser person would have sensed the urge to flee on his passengers or noticed the uproar around them.
Just pray never to be caught up at the wrong place & at the wrong time, na then you go know say all you just said no make sense.

PetsRe: With The Situation Of Things, How Do You Get Your Dogs Well Fed ? by PAQ(m): 7:00am On Nov 24, 2021
15kg dog kibble i usually buy goes for almost 30k now, so periods when things are rough i buy Bingo kibble which now goes for 13k in my area, Bingo lacks proper nutrients, like eating garri without soup! So for added nutrients i add eggs (with grinded egg shells for calcium), fish head or chicken legs. Any day we have left overs in the house, i mix it with her kibble (i know it aint good, but i hate having to throw food, especially in times like this). Some good days i go out of my way to spoil her, other days she just have to make do with what she gets.

Dogs have really adapted to all sorts of food in order to sustain itself, i have a neighbor with a beautiful well fed looking GSD. When i asked him what kibble he gives his dog, he said non, he has never bought dog food, she its what they eat; rice and garri!

Car TalkRe: Private Cars Should Be Reduced On Nigerian Roads by PAQ(m): 8:05pm On Nov 23, 2021
Until the public transport system is a comfortable alternative and not dehumanising, unsafe and disorganized. Private cars will remain an option to who can afford it. What you should suggest is taxing those who own more than one car or putting a tax on luxury cars or limiting how many cars an individual can own.
Car TalkRe: Car Android Screen Partially Displays by PAQ(m): 7:56pm On Nov 23, 2021
Is it always like this or only on the desktop screen? If it shows full screen sometimes or in other areas apart from the desktop, then it maybe software related, but if its hardware related you will need a replacement.
Try one or all of the following;

1. Disconnect the battery for some minutes
2. Try a Factory reset
3. Unplug the the screen from all wires, the
reconnect
4. Download another android car launcher
5. Try and contact the seller

Car TalkRe: "Japan Honda Crv Vs American Honda Crv" Which Is Stronger? by PAQ(m): 12:57pm On Nov 18, 2021
I would go for Japanese spec over American spec. Japans quality standards is very high and they are fond of adding more stuff to their made-in Japan products over others.

A friend of mine once shipped a 2010 Corolla from Japan and it was like no other Corolla i have ever seen; 2.0 engine, leather heated seats and with some exterior mods, everything oem not custom.

Even in electronics, a made in japan Sony xperia DoCoMo is always different from other regions; better screens sometimes even better SOC.

I will go for a made-in Japan & Made-in Korea any day.

FamilyRe: I Hate Seeing People Succeed Including Family Members by PAQ(m): 12:39pm On Nov 18, 2021
I will advice you to get a pet(s) like a dog(s).
. They will never give you money or over shadow
you
. They will always depend on you to feed them,
show them love and care
. To a dog you are its alpha and omega, a god, it
will look up to you for everything and lick your
feet, literally.
. Its not a person but they are regarded as family
members.

What you are after is master-slave, Master-pet relationship, you cant relate with humans this way.
RomanceRe: I Am Growing Fond Of My Neighbors husband by PAQ(m): 12:21pm On Nov 18, 2021
This feeling of yours will not go away, but will continue to grow until it pushes you to satisfy that urge to sleep with ur neighbors husband.

Like fire to fuel it will ignite and burn everything uncontrollably, it will consume you & the couple.

I advice you to relocate, leave that house, leave that area, best of all leave that state & cut all ties until u overcome the evil within.

OR

Just go ahead and do the do. Afterall we only leave once, all die na die, just dont start what u cant finish.

Car TalkRe: What Car Can A Young Guy Get With A Budget Of 5M by PAQ(m): 1:54pm On Nov 15, 2021
Dont look at anything flashy, use your 5m and buy a toks Japanese car (preferably Toyota (Lexus)& Honda(Acura)of nothing less than 2012-2013-2014 year model. You'll get your moneys worth over the years to come, you'll only be doing regular maintenance rather than fixing expensive issues then when you have some more money and want to upgrade the cars resale value will still put a smile on your face.

I believe we shall have A12 by Jan/Feb. Beta builds are unstable but apart from apps compatibility & maybe battery drain, it should be fine. If i were on hydrogen i would have given it a go

It would be nice if one of us could join the beta and give us a review.
