Hm... I go go with my agba mechanic, that one no be problem, he go know.
If you have a good mechanic he's the one that should be picking the engine, unless you're also knowledgeable in that area, otherwise I'd leave it to him.
Like some have also said, first thing I would do is flush the engine. Honda engines are difficult to kill and I'm not surprised that you still have proper compression and movement. Try a flush and see how that goes. Get liqui moly, prestone or seafoam. The reviews on seafoam and liqui moly are overwhelming.
Also, if the oil burn is not crazy bad. If it's something like 1 litre between service cycle, I'd leave it or confidently do the flush.
You may also want to check for visible traces of oil as that would suggest a bad seal somewhere or (as it happens in my own car) change the PCV box if your car has one. Mine usually gets clogged over time and it causes leaks or shortage.

Chai!
This your residential area na baddeest location for trips.
If you position anywhere around Abraham Adesanya, na only God knows where those trips dey come from - not those yanmayanma trips ooh.
Though, I've not gone beyond Orchid this year, but when that area was a good-to-go area back then, Abraham Adesanya used to be a hot cake, I don't know about now.
What I know of now is the traffic conditions on daily basis for there.
Abeg how una dey take cope over there? lipsrsealed

My bro, leave talk, location is 50% of this work... When i lived in ipaja, omo, God abeg... God forbid....even badore ajah still bless me, Abraham Adesanya jus open suya for me.

Much respect, boss.

Mesef wan talk am about Uber, are you new user?
I'm thinking it's because I'm new on their App.

I have been strictly using bolt and indrive

But since I came on the app, it has been opposite of what people have been talking about then.

I hope it continues o

With a 2006 Honda Civic, how feasible is it to make ₦100,000 to 150,000 net per week (Monday to Friday)? Regarding insurance, can third-party coverage work for this business, or must it be comprehensive?

All you need is the 3rd party.
Comprehensive is a flex if you have the fund to do it.


Much respect, sir.

3rd party doesn't cover owner in cases of accidents, theft and fire.

Everybody knows what 3rd party insurance covers and that's all I need.
Comprehensive is just a flex if the (e-hailing) driver has the fund to give them.
Abi any driver on this platform don report theft of their car or fire incident before?
Btw, the person I quoted asked if both insurances cover the work and my response was YES.
Just like a friend of mine who has both insurances, I am always like, "oga wetin be ur problem? grin
On top this e-hailing? 😁

After Using the 3 most popular E-hailing platforms. I think Uber is by far the best.

They care so much about the driver unlike bolt

I agree with you totally. As someone who has driven long on d three platforms.

Uber is the best followed by Indrive then Bolt(number 1 for surge sha grin)

Honestly Indrive is very profitable once u are very selective and calculative about your trips. If not u will just be burning fuel and living instead of actually profiting.

Anyway unless u have a small engine car or CNG u can do any how price on indrive and still profit extremely but my advise above is basically for cars with 2.4L and above

my best advice for you is to enter oyigbo. There is nothing that can be wrong with your car that they won't fix, and you will even get the part cheaper there.

He has sorted me out down to catalytic converter 2 years back wen I was using 06 Corolla. Even the present car I use is maintained by him I have no light on my dashboard and He will do same for u which sud be d aim of drivers to help improve car workability.

Note he can be pricey as he uses original parts. I just serviced my gear and 4 liters WS was 85k. And I needed 6Litres. He will never uses fake oil even if u tell him to use it. Rather he will point u to where u MUST buy original oil so u buy it ya self. Na so d guy dey work oo.
