Pls don't change d Gear now. Scan it first. Similar thing happened to me many years ago & the Auto Gear I met from Ladipo Market changed d Gear Control. After that, "okpari". No problems again. |

Got a car with the mileage of 102 plus in the dashboard. When I checked d VIN history, I realized dat d mileage was 234plus before it was shipped to Nigeria. I asked d dealer and he told me they didn’t adjust d mileage here. I don’t know what to believe again. 2 Likes |

Crime / Re: Mother Of Four Raped By Sons’ Barber In Lagos (Photos) by ray48: 5:59pm On Sep 02, 2017 |
Too many loose ends in the story. Why did she go alone to another mans house? Why didn't she notice that the house was deserted before getting to d door of his room? When she noticed the first time dat Basey spoke to his brother in another language, why didn't it trigger her suspicion? How easy was it for Bassey's brother to push her into the room if she was unwilling to enter? How easy was it for only Bassey to rape her without her consent? So many How's & Why's. 1 Like 1 Share |
Car Talk / Re: Axle Oil For Toyota Camry 2001 Model by ray48: 10:04pm On Aug 29, 2017 |
Those people just fleeced u. Axle oil is only used for a 4*4 SUV which uses a front and a back axle. It is also used for older model saloon cars that come with a back axle. Your car is a front wheel drive and does not require axle oil. |

Car Talk / Re: I Want To Change My 2003 Toyota Highlander Engine by ray48: 10:21pm On Aug 27, 2017 |
It's not worth it. U ll regret it after doing it. D car will loose Power & will not perform optimally. Just sell it as it is & go for a smaller car. But I really wonder if it's consuming fuel d way u portray it. It's a 3.0 liter engine & generally doesn't guzzle fuel like that. |

Car Talk / Re: 2003 Toyota Camry From Canada by ray48: 10:29pm On Aug 20, 2017 |
U can bring it in. Most of the 2003 model brought into Nigeria have similar or even higher miieages. They only adjust the miieages to read something lower. And most of them are performing very well. A friend bought a 2002 model with a mileage of 110,000. He later checked d VIN details and found out that the actual mileage was 220,000. Meaning that it was tampered with. But the car has been performing excellently well with no issues at all. |

Don't be deterred in helping others in the future. God in his infinite mercy will reward you. He has only succeeded in bringing curse to himself. He has lost that trust from u , ur family members, friends etc. That money will not last for him neither will it be useful for him. Just forget about it and move on. Very soon, u ll hear dat he is jumping from one church to the other looking for solution to a self inflicted problem. |

It depends on what u really want. If ur main aim is functionality, then go for a Camry. If not, then follow ur mind. |
Car Talk / Re: I Made A Big Mistake Please Advise by ray48: 5:40pm On Aug 19, 2017 |
It's a used car so u don't expect it to be faultless unless u re in luck. Just scan d car first. It might not be a serious problem. |
Car Talk / Re: SCAM ALERT: Honda 2005 Engine Swapped For Crv Engine by ray48: 9:49pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Did u buy it fairly used or toks? Even if u confirm dat it's a fraud, will u return it? Next time conduct ur due diligence b4 committing ur funds. Just relax & enjoy ur car. I ve seen EOD model with 4 cylinders & it's physically similar to the engine in CRV. I think some carry similar engine depending on the country of origin. I guess they are interchangeable. I don't think there's any problem. Relax |
Car Talk / Re: Car Talk Chat Room by ray48: 5:46pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Seyiafoo:Toyota Matrix is not SUV. It is a Corrola car. The Matrix will give u the best value in terms of fuel consumption. Maintenance of Highlander & RAV 4 are almost the same depending on the models and engine capacity. If fuel is the major issue, then go for Matrix. Personally speaking, my last option will be Honda Pilot. |
Car Talk / Re: What Is The Worst Or Best Thing/s Your Mechanic Has Ever Done To You Or Your Car by ray48: 5:36pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
I have a friend who many years ago had a VW Golf with 1.8litres engine capacity. He also had a mechanic who he trusted for years. Along the line, the car had engine problem & required Change. He gave money to this mechanic to buy d exact engine. This mechanic went & fraudulently bought 1.6 litres engine & mounted it on the car without full disclosure to my friend. My friend started driving it but noticed that the car was not picking speed again alongside other issues. But the mechanic explained it away & my friend overlooked it cos of the relationship. Still d mechanic didn't tell him he bought a smaller engine. Many months later, d car had issue & incidentally that mechanic travelled. He then took the car to another mechanic & after hearing his long list of complaints & inspection of d car told him dat the engine bought by the mechanic is 1.6 litres and not 1.8 litres. |
Car Talk / Re: What Nigerian Used SUV Can I Buy For 750k To 850k by ray48: 4:45pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
twinskenny: Ask the seller if it has auxiliary Gear. If it has, then it is 4*4. But most likely I doesn't have. |
Car Talk / Re: I Need A Good Hand To Help Service My Toyota Camry by ray48: 2:16pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Engrmathews: What was the fuel consumption rate before? Is 50km/10ltrs very excessive for a 2.2 or 2.0 litre Engine car?. Anyway, let gurus in the house advise on that. And what are u looking at as the optimal fuel consumption rate? |
Car Talk / Re: What Nigerian Used SUV Can I Buy For 750k To 850k by ray48: 1:49pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
twinskenny: Since u re talking of using it for day to day activities, I ll recommend either the Rav 4 or the Xterra. U ve to confirm if d Rav 4 is 4*4 as many are not. If not, then it's not SUV. Also consider fuel consumption as d Rav 4 most likely is 4 plugs whereas d Xterra is most likely 6 plugs. Pls note that most of ur recurrent expenditure on the vehicle will be on fuel consumption. Both are very good vehicles dat will serve u if well handled. Good luck 3 Likes |

Car Talk / Re: How Reliable Are Nissan Pathfinder Vehicles? by ray48: 3:17pm On Aug 05, 2017 |
SmartchoicesNG: The timing belt from my own experience lasts for an average of two years or so. The ignition that fails is is the round black component in the engine where all the plug wires meet. I guess it's called the ignition cos that's what the mechanics made me to believe it is. |
Car Talk / Re: How Reliable Are Nissan Pathfinder Vehicles? by ray48: 2:38pm On Aug 05, 2017 |
Nissan Pathfinder 1999 model with 3.3 litre engine is a wonderful car & hardly gives issues. It uses the same engine with Nissan Xterra 2002 & 2003 model. The only issue is the fuel consumption which is expected of a V6 Engine. Another common problem I noticed in the 3.3 litres engine is the timing belt which doesn't last very very long before it cuts. Also the ignition can fail without notice thereby leaving u stranded. These issues were also confirmed by some mechanics as well as some other users of the 3.3 litres Engine. But apart from the above, they are Good to Go. |
