GAZZUZZ:
time out!

Hey, who's that on Dana's left in the pic?

GAZZUZZ:
Fight!

I think he ran away again. He needs a couple more days for his next comeback. Or maybe he's studying to actually answer a car question or *gasp* 2x2.

Why you didn't stop sooner? I was genuinely upset at first but then became highly amused. You should have stopped me before it became fun!

GAZZUZZ:
time out!

Aww... Wish there was a pout emoji

weyreypey:
based on your advice I would like to go for NGK 2460 BKR5ES Standard Spark Plugs

Sorry, was involved in an inane argument elsewhere I was enjoying maybe too much.

They're coppers but if that's what you want. They're N1,825 each. http://weblink.carquest.com/acl/?mfgName=NGK&partNumber=2460

Will you let me upgrade you to the Autolite AP3924 Platinums at least for the same price? I can't in good conscience let you use those cooper plugs for that car. If so, shoot email to support@radautoworks.com and you'll get invoice and payment info. Don't forget it's 6-10 days.

asked for what you would come and do what?? come and brag bros get something better to do with your time moreover we have more than one workshop

So do we and the smallest one still has 12 bays and is not in this country lol. The next one will be right across the street from you if you don't stop mouth sharting yourself in public.

And don't think I didn't notice you don't know the answer to 2x2 and you have not attempted to help your potential customer with his car.

ivoryhouse:
He didn't place any warning sign for other road users to warn them of a breakdown so he caused an obstruction which resulted in a crash. His car will be impounded and perhaps he may pay for the damages..may[i][/i]..

He had his hazards on and in most countries that's enough because who really has c caution or triangles any more? They don't even put them in cars nowadays
For all we know, he went to seek help. I guess what I'm asking is had your been in the guy's shoes, what would you have done?

Also, OP collided with a stationary object. There's no changing that. What if it had been a tree that fell across the road? Would your opinion change?

Jesus. I just remember say na Gazzuzz thread I follow you dey derail. Abeg Gazzuzz no vex. I still get home training unlike some people wey dey claim my home. Na boredom dey do me and every once in a while it's good to get childish. Se make I leave am? We did have an agreement in the past.

RightWayauto:
Of course I talk too much! I'm female, highly successful and on vacation duh! You're the one penny hustling on other people's threads. 18 to be exact.

Once again your low IQ is showing. Did I ask you for a positive interaction? For me it's been pretty positive so far cheesy you're the one with ZERO responses from anyone else except to tell you you are getting owned and still don't realize it.

Now be a good idiot savant and help the nice guy fix his car IB imposter. If you can't, GTFO.
story of your life why would I care lol.. penny hustling you have a big problem omode yii

DAMN. You're so upset you can't even quote right anymore!

RightWayauto:
you this woman leave me alone now your wahala is too much you are a good pest o

Again, on vacation (it's something successful people do). Nothing better to do with my time. LOADS OF TIME FOR YOU LOL. and I intentionally told you I was a woman you see your approach and your dumbass took the bait!

I can do this all day! You ever see a cat play with a mouse before it eats it? Buddy, you're not the cat.

RightWayauto:
Lol.. thought as much you talk too much..must I have a positive interaction with you exactly for what? for your goodwill? please just get a life and do something worth your time I didn't have time for you for two days do something get busy self acclaimed multitasker

Morning Gazzuzz and other gurus in the house , i observed that my car steering is stiff, kinda hard to turn, though i still they manage am.

If am accelerating to like 50km upward, it soften and am ok with it but whenever i reduce my speed to like 40km downward the steering go just
hard.

This morning i bought fuel and as i was moving out slowly out of the filling station, steering was just too hard to turn but immediately i accelerate it became soften as usual. I know this is unusual.

Its 03 camry sir. Please what should i be looking at.
Thank you.

Here you go RightWrongWayauto. Show us those skills of yours... Or you don't see this one either

Also, maybe just a thought, stay away from the words software, hardware and machine

Gazzuzz, please allow this idiot savant to wow us all.

RightWayauto:
lool..i suck at replying misfits online like you

You just did tho...

RightWayauto:
Took two days because I didn't have time I was busy doing important offline work lol Why this thing dey pain una

Oh, looking for something else to steal? You suck at that too lol

I'm not even sure what point you're trying to make any more here. You have ZERO positive interactions with anyone. That should tell you something. Hell, if you can't deal with me, how the hell are you going to survive the men here?

Here's another chance at redemption. Quick, what's 2 x 2? (Hint: it's not 22).

Even if you were in IB since the 80's the new blood is taking over Apoju oro ma n so yin di Odi you Don see soldier wey dey do automobile you no even fit stand by myside na frog jump you go dey do

ROFL. See this small boy taking about 80's lol.

I'm so happy you posted your address!!! Just remember you asked for it

RightWayauto:
ehya I never did have time to check your comments because I know how quite insensitive you can be

It took you TWO DAYS to stop crying and come back with that?? and here I was starting to feel sorry.

Okay.

First off, y'all didn't learn to wear covered shoes at Elizade during your IT much less know how to define what it is you do so color us unimpressed. You also haven't said a single intelligent it coherent thing about repairing cars in all your posts. You've posted a bunch of pictures that look like Gazzuzz found you a local kazeem willing to let you take a couple of shots of his scrap pile.

Secondly, YOU'RE STILL A THIEF WITH NO ORIGINAL THOUGHT AND NOT ENOUGH SENSE TO BE ASHAMED ABOUT IT! you were given the floor to say something intelligent to help someone had a car problem and developed selective blindness

Third, if you ran IB you wouldn't be on here begging for business on EIGHTEEN other people's threads.

ABEG GERROUT!!

obekediamondfuto:
u see, when people like u argue..... it motivates me because u have something to offer.

I brought out the abuse part cos of the sentimental non-objective argument someone posed.

I personally will not advise anyone to not to carry out due and valid service/maintenance.
this is the ideal system but in reality.... idealism is only but a never ending journey.....

how many people asking for advise can comfortably maintain those cars? many peeps here save money from monthly salary..... valid maintenance is key and economical on the long term but people tend to love the short term mirage of compromise..... it's a natural thing.... that's y people would rather use shortcut than the normal longer route...... esp Nigerians....

it is very very important to point out these aspects when proffering advise.....


PS if y'all cannot cope with timely and valid maintenance..... stay off the Honda

not everyone has enough money to buy a car and maintain it properly like "Most" of us here(even tho it's all in the typing.... real life.... all na jege... na dem even manage pass)

hooooo haaaaaaa

Then they shouldn't be buying a car it soon lower like I talked about in my TCO thread. Just like you should not marry wife if you can't maintain her properly

I never imagined being a Honda user especially after having worked for Toyota for a couple of years HOWEVER... I was talked into it after being dissatisfied with Mercedes and bought an Acura RDX in 2010, loved it so much, bought a new one in 2013.
Ready again for a new vehicle and guess what's leading the pack?

Oh, and in the three years my Acura has been in Nigeria, it's only needed 4 new tires and recently code went off for catalytic converter.

Say what you will but it boils down to personal preference for me between both brands.

ivoryhouse:
I'm actually almost completely in agreement with you..Abuja is a dangerous city to live in due to it's many untrained drivers..my point is that the man may be able to get the defaulting driver to pay him

I'm not seeing where the other driver defaulted

mrcoolautofix:
Sorry to say that you sound totaly clueless, you have no previous expirience driving at night, you have not technical analyses to address this issues, you are completely off,

The first thing first, you have no information on my kind of headlamp and you just jumped into conclution that i was at fault, ,

If the car didnt park at the speed lane slop, the will be no casualties or damage to my car,

You have no previous knoledge about road sign, at this point i am sure you are not a driver, cos your daftness conclution is not illogical,



As the matter of fact road safety and police investigation came on board place a c caution at the scene to prevent more acidrnt from taking place, the person whoms car was in the middle of the road was a friend to a senior barister,

If i had colide with that car parked at the midfle of the road, the chances of me and five life suvival will be 5 %


Before i go, did you know anything about car? Driving at 80 to 90 at 8 :30pm?

Did you know anyrhing about headlamp and the best grades?

Did you know the penalty of leaving your faulty car in the middle of the speed lane without c caution placed 20 mitres distance before your car?

Have you ever by your skill or driving make a gorgement at a critical moment that either save or tale life?


If no, you have no audacity to vomit any rubish you excreted over this place,

I needed inteligent advice onnchoice to make not display of illitracy andvfoolishness

Yeah, now we are really sympathetic to your case. Ever hear of defensive driving?

no c caution but hazard light on,

How do you not see that? YOU. HIT. THE. OTHER. CAR. FROM. THE. REAR. WHEN. IT. WAS. STATIONARY. Please don't try to blame your headlight.

You were going fast, you didn't see the other car in time to compensate plain and simple. You had 5 PASSENGERS in your car and should definitely have been driving now carefully. Yes, the car was parked in the speed lane but he DID have his hazards on according to you. Would you have been able to push your car out of the speed lane alone? He did the best he could given what little we know about the circumstances. How many countries do you know that still use c caution?

To answer your original question, I think you should take the L and move on. If I was one of your passengers, you'd definitely be paying me some money just sayin'.

oblo:
Beautiful. I really am touched by your story. And hopefully more to come though a lot has been done on this forum. Nice one and thumbs up to Costee and Auto elect.

uwemjack:
So my steering rack started leaking and got worse over time, I had to be topping up the power steering fluid every other week. Searched online for a new rack and the cost of shipping it in was not encouraging so I bought a replacement "Tokunbo" in ladipo and mechanic installed it, after 2 weeks it started leaking again took it to the seller and it was replaced with another "Tokunbo" with guarantee had it installed. Now I have paid twice for labour.

Went online and procured the rebuild kit from ebay and it arrived 15 days later. so I dismantled the original rack that came with the car to replace the o-ring, seals and "borris". I could not remove one of the borris so I took it to a mechanics workshop for them to use their tools to remove it, and the chief mechanic told me that it's better to replace the whole rack than rebuild and that they can't remove it (they actually tried to remove it in my presence). Took it back home and went to YouTube and finally got the borris removed. Then I cleaned and replace everything that was in the kit and coupled back the rack.
3 weeks exactly after rebuilding the steering rack, the rack in the car started leaking! So the second Tokunbo rack lasted for roughly 2 months!

So I reinstalled the original rebuilt steering rack! And 3 years down the line the it has not leaked.

To me rebuild is better than replace, but our mechanics don't follow due process as their work area is always dirty, sand and other parts are reintroduced into the rebuilt part which contributes to their early failure.

This makes me feel so validated. Thing is a lot of people in Naija would rather go through that rigamarole than just have it done in a simple manner apparently.

You get what you pay for. It's either bite the bullet or death by a thousand paper cuts.

I came, I saw and I conquered the candy store! Bought this small item.
I met Glen as well. Nice guy! He took me past the repair area to the car parts store. Abeg u guys should mount the sign post quick. My Uber missed it the first time despite using Rad Auto Works as destination. Wanted to take me into one...was it oracle estate or something
It's great what you guys are doing! Really nice setup. I perceive you will give dealerships a run for their money.

Oh, and signage will be up soon. Your Uber was messing with you. I dropped the Google pin myself.

Singlesoul401:
I noticed that 2k fuel won't even take me up to 40 mins drive

That still doesn't help. How long has this been going on? What was consumption like before? Have you had any recent work done to your car? Did you recently change driving pattern? Is your car behaving any differently apart from that? Any new sounds or smells?

Also, SOMEONE RECOMMEND ME A HALF-WAY DECENT FEMALE TECH AND WE'LL GROOM HER PLEEEEEAAAAASSSE

Singlesoul401:
My honda baby 2000 consumes fuel what could be the possible cause and how to fix it I love this car so much looks and handles better than tiny light

You're going to need to give a whole lot more detail than"I have a cough"

davodyguy:
I wouldn't lie. I've been doing that for about 2 years now. My thinking is that buy new, since you don't know the mileage on the tokunbo you're buying

My biggest issue sometimes Amazon/eBay say a part is a fit and it is not. The sellers put the interchange info and sometimes it's wrong. If you're unlucky, what do you so with the misfit part?

Recommend when you find something on those sites, go to Carquest, advance, O'Reilley or even dealer to verify the part number interchange.

GAZZUZZ:
Not necessary, you will be back on this matter.



That's not how to fix a modern day car.

Didn't he say it was reversed or did I misread?
