Car Talk › Re: Is Visco 2000 Engine Oil Good For Es 330 Oil..? by radautoworks: 4:52pm On Jan 25, 2023
Rexnegro:
Good day I have gone through your comment and I see you are knowledgeable. Please I use a Toyota Camry pencil light and my mechanic said I should get forte oil visco 2000 for servicing that it's better than green oil that I have been using. Please boss is visco 2000 truly good and suitable for Toyota Camry pencil light 4cylinders engine? I await your response thanks
no. forte oil visco 2000 is 20w50. Please check your fuel cap or manual for the correct oil. It is most likely 5w30. As long as you get the correct weight, brand is less important. The only exception is if you've been using the wrong oil so long that your engine is sludged. If that's the case, best to just continue until the engine gives out undecided

Sorry I did not read your post from the beginning but I saw a red flag - thus my intervention.
Never use companies like FEDEX, UPS to ship (except unavoidable) because the complaints about crazy customs billing is assured.
Look for guys that does shipping /clearing business and use them or ship and clear yourself.
I have a feeling the guys at Fedex customs section connive with customs to fleece their clients.
... my suspicion is based on many years of repeated patterns of observation and wide feedback.
Hi,

Thanks for the advice. We've actually used both and had more success with FedEx/dhl. One option you don't always all your goods and they never accept responsibility and repay you, the other option you pay more but at least you get all your goods tongue

This thread is a definition of "May Nigeria never happen to us"

People might argue that costs of vehicles have increased all over the world, but Naija case is peculiar due to falling Naira.

A car that cost $3k few years ago at $200/N would be 600k Naira excluding shipping and clearing fees.

If the car is now $4500 (assuming 50% increase) due to inflation in car cost all over the world, ideally, @$200/N, if the Naira is relatively stable against dollar, the new car price should be N900,000.

But in the case of naija; now, a dollar is N700+.
Assuming same inflation rate of 50%, the price of the same car which could have cost N900,000 with stable currency is now $4500*700 = N3,150,000


That's why Corolla which was about 1.2m - 1.5m few years ago is now 4m or thereabout.

Naija situation isn't just as a result of general inflation in cost prices but a combined effect of GENERAL INFLATION and DEEPLY FALLING Naira.

I'm not saying OP is out of business, I believe he must have established relationships with some clients off-thread whom he still helps source for cars but the general level of patronage has clearly dropped and affected this business.

I PRAY every business that has suffered in these hard times resuscitate soon.

MAY NIGERIA NEVER HAPPEN TO US
THANK YOU. and this applies to all business who rely heavily on imports.

@ GloriousGbola, I saw your post. If you had your repair and parts from us then you have a warranty. Why aren't you using it!
I'm unable to respond where you are actually posting which is a little one sided. I can't say that I'm pleased to hear your experience in my absence but this is one of the reasons why I insist on offering a warranty. If you could please DM me your invoice number I'd like to know which tech worked on your Ford as we work on all sort of cars from budget to premium and I want to run a quality control audit.

If the compressor and brake pads were Carquest products that failed I still maintain that they are under warranty (the brakes especially for 2 years) and will be replaced at no cost to you. The AC compressor is also under warranty for one year IF you purchased the full kit, same as our US stores. if they were not Carquest products and third party -which some customers opt for in an attempt to save as our parts do come at a premium due to exchange rates-then I can't speak to those parts. And if they were third party products at some point someone must have cautioned about that.

I understand you came from a considerable distance and that's a factor. If you are willing to bring it back in, I will make sure that it is looked at in a timely matter. If they are Carquest products and you are not satisfied with your purchase, bring them back and I will extend you a partial refund for your trouble. Without knowing what happened in my absence I think this is a fair compromise and hope that it will be of some comfort to you.

Look forward to your response... Preferably somewhere we can have a two sided conversation.

Hi. What’s issues should one who wants to purchase a Mercedes ML350 2011 be wary of?
ALL OF THEM grin

I personally wouldn't buy that car and I love Mercedes. If you absolutely have to have it, pay the money to get a THOROUGH inspection including a scan with a good computer (not one of those little or Bluetooth ones). It's easy to erase warning lights temporarily to sell a car but a deep scan will still pop up the error
