Why Aliexpress?
Simply take your new or old filter to any local shop that sells spanners and the likes. You will get a good match.
Ignore that kazeem.
Oil filter is paper

If it only shakes during acceleration. Then your drive shaft maybe the culprit. Get new ones. The mechanic that changed brake pads and hub mustve been drunk

Very poor diagnosis, IMO. Those guys are after your money, simple.

The pump is just one component out of many in a power steering system. Have others been verified okay?
And if it's actually the pump that's faulty again, you need to first find out what's always damaging the pumps.
If you don't, the new pump will go kaput also. Those guys know this and that's why they are giving no guarantee.

My advice, keep your car away from them or else they will destroy it completely.
Go find a decent workshop. Avoid "kazeems".

First, take your car and run far away from that "rewire".

Next, go get yourself a cheap scanner.
Scan the car.

Yesterday i did my first oil change after 6000km of ownership.
I wanted to use Pennzoil but this buhari regime has made poverty catch up with me and the extra 5k naira i couldn't afford �
From research i found out Canadian corolla doesn't come with the maintenance reminder light so I've decided to keep track manually and change oil and filter every 7 to 8k km.
Lastly kazeem was saying the oil was too light, but that's not his fault.
I plan to do all repairs myself but he refused to buy the oil filter tool which i gave him money for .
I didn't want to try with the locally constructed chain.
Please what is the dimension for the tool as i want to order it from ali express and i don't want to get the wrong one.
Change your filter every 5000km if you are using the regular filters

My oga Gazzuzz. Pls what could be wrong with my Nissan Teana 2008. No check engine light. But on cold start engine vibrates and shuts off, second start starts well, after about 30 seconds, it starts to vibrate and shuts off. This repeats until engine warms up. I scanned the car no codes.
