Exactly my thought!!!!

Suggestion:
Please fix the dollar pricing ish, else prices will keep fluctuating up & down.
I got the Conventional oil at N10,347 as against the N9,490 or N9,855 you stated earlier, now imagine if it was a more expensive item, price difference would have been more.

N10,347 for 5 8 QT of 5w-30 is still a good bargain grin grin grin grin
It shouldn't have fluctuated. We use a flat rate. They owe you the difference. If you're ever told something different from what I said, show them screenshot or ask for manager!

My spacial Thanks goes to HeavenlyBang and others you guys knows what time is it my brothers. I will also like to know about E class. Thanks everyone.

Aunty radu my oil filter was not available cry cry cry
4 cylinder 2006 Honda Accord Ex-L.
What if i had come for Oil-tober oil change promo? huh
Seriously?? That's a popular vehicle. Someone must have forgotten to restock. Ordering a few now. Will soon be there (some strikes going on in customs from what GIG tells me)

In that case we would have given a rain check and brought it in.

Just booked an appointment at yours for the 22nd of October when I'm back in town. Need to have the AC system in my '05 ES330 looked at. Passenger's side blows relatively cold but driver's side is pretty much outside temp air.

Hopefully it's something you'll be able to sort out for me.
Oh, that's an easy fix for Glen. His favorite thing to fix is ACs so he does all of them personally. Cars come in with that problem all the time. Only thing is part might have to be brought in. Need him to confirm what's needed though.

I drive past this building everyday. Doesn't look like ant activity is going on within. Are u guys operational nopute?
Lol yes. The building does look a little intimidating. Looks like that because we have two parking lots. All the action is inside. Customers don't drive inside only our staff. Inside is for cars being worked on, outside is for inquiries and restaurant parking. Keeps damage incidents from happening.

But like thebigkendo said, branch and see for yourself. We welcome sightseeing grin

My mind was hitherto comfortably set on upgrading to an RX330 but your comments on the RDX piqued my interest. So I looked up the model and now I'm seriously torn between the RX and RDX

What do you mean at the bolded? Are u implying the parts for a 2006 RX330 for instance are cheaper and more available than those for a 2007 RDX ?

I am not very particular about mpgs. The key factors for me are:

Speed/performance
Handling
Comfort
Ease of Maintenance (affordable & available)
Ground Clearance

bearing in mind the above, would you still recommend the RDX over the RX
I meant parts availability not pricing. We (Carquest) have parts for them both readily however, in the general market the RX parts are more readily available I believe. I assumed you wouldn't want to be limited in where to get your parts.
Based on your criteria, I would do the RDX as it beats the RX on 4 of your 5.

You meant for the front pair? 36,500?
No. Each. They're more expensive than the rears.

Mr Mumu Please answer

Is it your penny?
Is it your pound?
Is it your SMART?
Is it your wise?
Is it your Car?
It is definately your foolish
So what is it your problem?
Have I ever asked you for money before?
If I decide to flush my money down the toilet.. How does it affect your pathetic life?
Mr Mumu I have been using mobil 1 AFS long before you started smuggling motor oil into Nigeria.. But I will never use mobil 1 extended performance, Now you can go & kill yourself

Lastly!!! Your foolishness is very irritating.

NB: This will be my last response to you on this thread
The Eminem-MGK beef gave me some clarity when it comes to this guy. It's a catch 22. By destroying MGK, Eminem gave him a lot of publicity he wouldn't have had. On the other hand, he couldn't very well let MGK go running his mouth. He dropped his diss record, murdered MGK and then ignored him, starving him of the popularity he was getting for his new album. Same thing here.

Dru's already been revealed to be a 2-bit hustler. Replying to him only gives him our audience who wouldn't otherwise know he existed. Diss record was already dropped. Now to sit back and watch him flail.

Too bad you're not in Lagos. Glen is a Mercedes ac guru. His favorite thing to work on. Real talk though, I see why you won't let it go. We have the same one in our family and won't let it go either. Only issue it's ever had was alternator so I don't understand why yours is acting up like this. Would really love to have seen it to see why.

I wasn't in good spirits when I read it as I'm unfortunately stuck in Lagos because I missed my flight due to traffic from some Redeem Church religious BS.

Lady you can loose all the brain cells u want... if I want to sell my car I can go through auction, a person that has a license can sell it for me and of course they will be a fee for it ..cars sold in the auction also include donated cars too ...u making it seems as if only lease cars, trade ins, insurance etc ..donated cars are also sold too ..let us make that clear too...
Now am not knocking your company off too ..what people don't know also that auto parts company like ,autozone, advance auto parts and of course carquest which is not very common on the Eastcoast sell inferior parts ..they give unlimited warrant on some parts.. The parts don't last that long and they can always give u another one ,due to the low quality.. So let us be humble lady... so these your carquest up and down like u the Lord of the ring ...make I keep my mouth shut..all these parts are basically a poor man parts shop... if anybody wants to get correct parts, the dealership is the best way to go..better quality and warranty.. U can buy them parts from them and take it to your mechanic to fix .. What I talk about have done before... but due to bad or fake parts sold in Nigeria carquest is a welcome idea no doubt in that, I would even rather buy from you guys than go Ladippo ... but at times you make it seem like u know it all and nobody can challenge.. Walmart, target, autozone, advance auto, Carquest etc all the same stuff ..to sell low quality goods at an affordable price.. Just keeping it 100% with you.. At same time I welcome the idea into the Nigerian Market .. I rather buy from you than go buy fake outside...
Lol. That's a great business model isn't it? Sell inferior parts with warranties that you have to keep replacing. Makes total sense. Selling inferior parts is how we got to be one of the largest parts distributors in the America you are always touting. Won't lose money at all that way. Riiiiiiggghhhttt. Never mind the fact that half of the parts are the OE in the vehicles shocked

That's why you contacted us wanting us to diagnose and fix your car right? That's exactly why you didn't receive a response. We will not touch your car because you will have some stupid claims after the fact that we are not going to entertain. Please carry your oil and car to the dealership.

English is obviously a struggle for you. Your claim was that auction cars are full of people's cars and you were corrected that the majority were not. I don't know everything but I know enough to only comment on things I do know. Apparently I'm the only one here that still wastes energy on you.
