Good evening house, please i need help. My car is honda civic 2008 model. Last year when i engage my gear to either drive or reverse, the car would start shaking and making sound, it was later discover that the fault is a faulty adjuster belt which i change by buying complete belt adjuster but still yet the signs and symptoms continue so my mechanic advise i remove the adjuster belt completely which he did and bought a shorter belt. After this i stop experiencing those noise and the shakes or vibrations but my belt easily worn out and woulf be making squeak noise. So now have decided again to go back to my belt adjuster cos driving without the adjuster is affecting even my battery, today i bought a new adjuster and also the symptoms of the vibration when engage in drive or reverse resurface.
Please house i am looking for a solution if anyone have please give me on how to stop the vibration when engage in drive and reverse, thanks
My confusion start wen I read here say the vibration when u put am on reverse or drive was caused by adjuster.
Fine, the squeaky sound has to do with the adjuster (not actually the belt).
But that vibration when engaged on driver or reverse should be another thing.
Check all your seatings (engine seats), check all if there's anyone damaged.

Much respect, baba.

Those particular model of Civic always have adjuster problem, best is to buy a longer belt(I have forgotten the size) and reroute the belt. I could have posted the diagram, but i can't find the pic in my phone again. I hope you have scanned your gear, so you don't end up with Guess work.

Probably somewhere in the libyan desert enroute to Poland.

With the current flight cost, I doubt he can afford flight to poland. Hopefully, the polish people will see him for the fraud that he is and reject his asylum claim when he gets there

You mean am
Very good grin They must reject him and all APC tout and everyone that voted & supported APC, they must all stay in Nigeria to continue the suffering. next time they won’t support a clueless president, that is hungry for power but no brain to rule.

Civic 2008 and vibration are siamese twins.

Did you use the same short belt when you fixed back the adjuster? The size of the belt is VERY important. There is a reason why the adjuster is there in the 1st place which is to ease the difficulty in fixing the appropriate belt of the car.

The belt that will fit the car will initially appear as too short when fixing it, but when you tilt the adjuster and roll the pulley, it will enter. You will notice the firmness of the belt.

With good adjuster and right belt size, that issue should go.

Like I said so many things changed after Covid , this generation of jappa is different. Why do you think countries are tightening their immigration law and borders ? Cause once you are in and you don’t commit any crime you are going to integrate into the system with time.
Do you know that they now give non immigrant & out of status drivers license.
Did you hear what happened to Florida construction coy when the Governor passed a law that didn’t favor foreigners (illegal immigrants ) ?
You think they don’t know people are doing under the table jobs ?

My encouragement is to Uber drivers, I will rather they drive Uber abroad and sleep in their cars than to keep driving in Tinubu’s Nigeria.

Is that what you're doing in Dr congo??

Bros drive that car go oyinbo, ask them the place they call redeem field.
You will see a lot of Honda specialist there, they have seen such issues before.
Tell them u have been battling the issue for a while now, if they finish test drive before paying.
If the problem didn't stop no gree, if u make noise other mechanics will join heads to solve the issue, I strongly suggest u go very early in the morning because that place is always busy.

After using BOLT and Indrive for about a week (less than 10 rides both)

I can say INDRIVE is a way better option.

Flexibility wise

Your job is to make money not to impress rider or app.


Check for trips that works for u

Decide location that works for u.


Always and always obey traffic law.

Take your health and the car maintenance serious.


Keep good but professional relationships with customers

I started driving since first week of November, I drive only Fridays/Saturdays/Sundays

I drive from 6am to 6pm, sometimes I stop at 8pm.

And I use 12k fuel daily from NNPC, There is no day since November 1st up till today I don't gross 40k and above. What this means is, I make comfortably minimum of 25/30k anyday I hit the road.

In 3days I go home with 90/100k above. I never use bolt or uber. Only Indrive

Let me use Indrive exclusively from today till Saturday and see.
I pray I can overcome the temptation of going on Bolt if I wait 30mins without a reasonable trip on Indrive.

Bolt is good for

1- LONG TRIPS (destination when far)


2- when out of zone area (after Ajah , badagry or so) bolt would most likely have a rider to take you out.




But indrive is good where a lot of riders are, no score drop, u also have the freedom to choose a trip or the price. Something BOLT doesn’t offer and they punish u for not picking what they give

You didn't tell me what I want to hear. But I will still try Indrive. Even though I have deduced that all the advantages of Indrive can be gotten on Bolt but the advantages of Bolt can't be gotten on Indrive. Personally I can't remember that last time I went to Agege, Egbeda, Iyana Ipaja, Ayobo, Sattelite Town, Ikorodu, Sangotedo, Apapa, even Ago/Festac axis. I stay within the main trunk of Lagos. Between Chevron and Berger and I still don't go to places like Bariga, Ijesha, Oshodi market, Mushin, Mile 12 thats inbetween...but I still Gross minimum 60k everyday I work. The only thing is I will need about 10-12hours to achieve this.
If I can go home with 30k with less time and still not have to go to these unfavorable destinations then I will remain with Indrive.

Impressive.
You see this hustle, na sense e require. Plus target.
You don't need to drive your ass vigorously before you can hit your target.
Indrive will give you what you want with lesser stress that comes with peace of mind, everything under your control.
What you make weekly (3 days) is enough for ómóluabi.
If one is not greedy, you will make good savings, take care of your car comfortably without your own health breaking down.
Soft work, cool profit.
You're doing well, baba.

Much respect, boss. ✌
