Autopartz: Please go for the fairly used a.c compressor. However, there are different grades in the market. There are the Singapore, Malaysian, American and Japan toks with Japan toks being the most expensive. Their fair prices range from 18k to 25k.
The Japan toks in our opinion could be more durable than most of the new (aftermarket) a.c compressors you find in the market.
The new (aftermarket) a.c compressors are within the range of 60k(+/- 5k).
New (oem) a.c compressors exists, but are very expensive (above 120k).
The choice is yours. Your reliable a.c technician can source it for you.
Most people that come buy and install compressors from us already replaced with toks two or three times and regretted it.
This Camry had been to our shop recently. The owners had work done then took it elsewhere for a second opinion. Shortly after, they started hearing a noise and brought it back to us. This is what we saw.
Please give me a quote for o2 sensor bank 1 for a Volvo XC90 2004 2.5L AWD
N96,199 with a six month warranty and 6-10 day delivery. Too bad it wasn't downstream. Would have been less than half the price. Ideally though wouldn't have had to replace any.
and what is the cost for servicing (excluding materials cost) and full diagnostic?
Hello,
It depends on what you want. We have a complimentary visual check of suspension, trouble codes and fluids. Most oil changes excluding materials are N2,500 and so are most diagnoses without service.
HeavenlyBang: I've never actually driven the Crosstour or ZDX but do they really have visibility issues? After all the BMW X6 and GLE Coupe have similar silhouettes but no one complains about them.
Also, I don't think they were canceled for having poor visibility. They just sold poorly, I believe.
Backfornow: Raccoons creep me out. They are super smart, have great memories, and and sneaky. When my family and I went camping two years ago, I was told by several people, to not leave any food out, nor leave the car doors unlocked because they can open them. A couple of people told me that woke up to their cars/trucks being ransacked bc the raccoons went inside looking for food. Another lady told me that they are super sneaky and operate like a operation sting, she said when her family went camping at a place called Raccoon Lake in my state, one will distract you while the other will make off with your food. They are bold. So when we went camping, late at night while we were just chilling by the bonfire, we saw their eyes in the distance lurking. But mostly in the city, I only see them at night lurking in the sewer or sneaking in somebody's trash can.
Nig4Greatness: Got this from somewhere and I was like.....OMG !!!!...like seriously.
Raccoon Orientation for Canada-Bound Nigerians
By Late Pius Adesanmi
I promised I was going to get around to tell you all this story. Eventually.
Happened last summer – before my accident.
The jazz of all my political enemies in Nigeria finally crossed the Atlantic and caught up with me here in Ottawa.
The trouble with Homo Occidentalis North Americanus is that as soon as he arrives within a certain income bracket that is no longer middleclass but not quite upperclass but dangerously close to upperclass, he will move far away from the city and create a new paradise he calls upscale suburbia. Swanky neigbourhoods with manicured lawns, removed from the rabble of the city.
That is where you will find high-earning doctors, engineers, accountants, lawyers, etc. If you are a Professor who negotiated a good pay when you were hired, you also tag along, buy property among them, and begin to form associate big man.
Trouble is suburbia in Canada or the US is always encroaching on the habitat of much older residents. Man steals land from these residents but cannot always predict consequences. That is why a family in Florida will return from work to an alligator chilling in their swimming pool. That is why a family in Arizona will grumble about rattle snakes all over their yard. They call animal services. Never mind that these animals have called that place home for millions of years before man put one leg on top of another leg and developed his suburbia there.
In Ottawa, if you live in the suburbia called Riverside South as I do, you have encroached on prime raccoon territory. As in Florida and Arizona, these raccoons have a way of behaving like omo onile in Lagos. Occasionally, they let you know who truly owns the land (This is where you google raccoon).
Because the jazz of my political enemies in Nigeria worked as I was saying, a family of raccoons elected residence in our roof last summer. We’d been hearing mawuru mawuru in the ceiling for months. The noise would come only at night. Tise said it was the tooth faerie. I thought it was squirrels, but we couldn’t fathom how squirrels could tear into the roof of a duplex from outside and make their way into the attic.
One day, madam called me urgently and asked me to hurry home. I arrived to a small situation in front of our home. Our otherwise very friendly neighbours had converged on our front lawn. It was quite a scene. Bloodshot eyes everywhere. No friendly faces. In upscale suburbia, we are naturally the only non-white homeowners within a certain radius so when normally friendly white neighbours converge, looking sorrowful and unfriendly, you worry.
I exited my car to behold quite a scene. Unknown to us, we had accommodated a pregnant raccoon for several weeks. Mama Raccoon eventually gave birth to six pups. On this day, she suddenly went crazy like she found a mixture of codeine, sniper, and tramadol in our attic. She began to fling her babies down on the lawn one by one. From the roof of a duplex fa.
That explained the sadness and sorrow of our neighbours. Remember, this is an animal-loving civilization. It also explained their hostility. Somehow, it must have been something we did that got that poor animal so crazy that she began to murder her own kids. Everybody was looking at us one kain, like, what have you guys done now?
The only analogy for you in Nigeria is if your home was invaded by destructive giant rats. You’d tried everything from traps to rat poison. Then, one day, Mama Rat begins to miraculously kill her own children before your very before. Only for your neighbours to gather around sorrowfully because those awesome baby animals are dying. Only for them to be hostile to you for not doing enough to keep the baby rats alive!
Anyway, animal services eventually arrived to rescue some of the babies that had not yet died. Come and see interrogation! Even Tise did not escape questioning! Are you guys perhaps a little noisy in the house? What time do you all normally sleep?
Nigerians, believe you me, Oyinbo was trying to determine if we did something to cause the postpartum depression of Mama Raccoon, which led her to killing her babies!! They began to explain the characteristics of raccoons to us. How it was still too early for her to bring her babies out, let alone fling them from the roof. There was the unsaid: you guys must have done something.
When we were eventually “acquitted”, the animal services people went into our attic to inspect. They screamed in excitement: three more babies that Mama Raccoon had yet to fling! We said: thank God. Now you can evacuate Mama Raccoon and her remaining babies.
I hope you all know that in Obodo Oyibo, public animals are government property. All those doves you see in Trafalgar Square or the squirrels you see on lawns, geese, ati bebelo, are all government property. Una wey dey go holiday in London from Nigeria, go to Trafalgar Square and touch a dove, that is the day you will realize that the life of a public animal is worth more to the government of obodo oyibo than your life is worth to the Nigerian government.
So, we asked Obodo Canada to please carry their raccoons from our ceiling. We were in for another shock. She is a nursing mother, the animal services people replied, we don’t move nursing mothers. By law, Mama Raccoon has the right to remain here and nurse her remaining babies. We will keep checking.
I have been in Obodo Oyibo for 22 years. I didn’t see that one coming. Apparently, the Raccoon had eminent domain! The best they could do for us was to come and move her at the end of the biological breeding cycle or something to that effect. With that, they entered their van and zoomed off.
I looked on in wonderment, lost in one of those na-who-send-me-come-obodo-oyibo moments that every Diasporan goes through on occasion. With which mouth am I even going to tell this sort of story to a Nigerian audience?
Then I noticed that Tise all along had had the same attitude as our Oyinbo neighbours.
Now she is glad that some Raccoon babies had survived and would not be moved.
I realized that only her parents had a problem.
I realized that we were two Nigerians raising a Canadian.
This is her country. This is her culture. These are her peoplye. These are her baby raccoons.
I jejely borrowed myself brain and joined the little girl in rejoicing that three baby raccoons had survived.
ROFL!! this is the BEST thing I've read on the internet in A WHILE!
Those ES350s are head turners especially the 2013+ models. Aunty radu will say a vehicle's "beauty" is subjective but I think the those ES from 2007 are objectively "beautiful"
Not including DACA or the Temp acts for Haitians and Salvadorans, it would 9 times.
Very reputable news source huh. Your own list shows there are only three. As I always wonder, wtf is your purpose on this thread? You seem to really disdain immigrants and love Trump so why are you on a thread for people trying to immigrate?
oluwealth: Hello MotorGuru. Pls advice on which should I buy in terms of reliable, maintenance & fuel economy between 2003 Toyota Prius, 2003 Toyota Matrix and 2001 LEXUS Rx 300 all Nigeria used.
