Help: Can Someone Show Me The Sos Button On Auto Section/car Talk by IWealthCreator: 2:12am On Oct 05, 2019
I am in soup, not egusi soup ooh, but i trust you understand what i mean.
I went like james bond and decided to pick up an engine for my honda crv at ladipo without going with my mechanic, i had done it successfully last year when i bought my gear box without going with my personal mechanic and i never had a problem with it so repeat the same formula by going to the same seller, i am almost 3 weeks on the engine issue, the first engine sold to me was quite terrible, it was smoking, shortening oil, and gasoline smell from the exhaust, eventually changed almost 2 weeks later, the next egnine was decent looking, and the test drive showed it was ok, scan report was okay, i was suddently feeling peace of mind, i drove the car after engine installation to my personal mechanic and he confirmed the engine is tokunbo, only for us at the last minute to discover that oil was leaking from a broken engine block, i was devasted of course the seller is not happy but has offered to grant another replacement.
But the problem is that i have been using the seller's mechanic, and i am now suspecting a scam, as i pay for each engine reinstallation is there any mechanic in ladipo that can help install the engine, this is for check and balance purposes. I can not afford a 4th engine reinstallation, each reinstallation is costing me money...
Engine oil aka Funds is running quite low.
My morale is quite low.
Any reliable mechanic contact at ladipo who can handle the instllation would be appreciated.

My personal mechanic says a crack in the engine block is not visibily detectable, so i should not blame the seller of the engine.

Absolutely not, that will most likely be more than the value of the car cheesy

My landlord bought a vehicle with a defective engine and asked my neighbour who works with Elizade to get him a quote for a brand new engine.

The quote came back as 4m, landlord japa cheesy
