Rear bushings are bad. Mostly annoying because I discovered just after changing my front bushings, urgh. I'll face that one later, don't have time for it now.

It’s not the bulb it’s a fuse issue that the rewire would just do in less than 10mins the car is only 6 month used and I changed the oil just last 3month I’m beginning to hear my shocks go bad I just tire self Nigeria road no help at all.
Ah, okay. Fuses would do it too. FYI we have good quality fuses too if it burns out again.

this is Nigeria and while many of us do not willingly procrastinate, some other do it based on mindset.....

"if e neva spoil, we no go fix am"

now back to base.... a good number of Nigerians tend to compromise when it comes to vehicles and that is pretty understandable.... yes... very very understandable....

1. economy.
2. priority (an AC fix is less severe than a brake fix and should be given less priority in cases of tight/limited resources)
3. frustration (it'll be difficult to convince someone who has changed AC compressor 3 times in 3 weeks.. to fix his AC)
4. we are Nigerians...... soon enough, y'all (not running repair shops oh and shouting maintenance maintenance) will understand!

to start with, someone will think.... I bought a tokumbo UK or US "used" vehicle for 1m to 5m and someone is telling me to use 500k to 2.5m to revive the ride with brand new oem parts now that I have already been managing the whole issues.... OMO na to sell the car add money buy another one for 1m to 5m again joooooor...... grin

just giving u a preview of the average Nigerian mindset when it comes to cars...
well I'm above the average Nigerian
