this is not 2008 bro. So it cannot be a 535i. However, congratulations. It's cool.

Apologies. I meant to say 525i.

I have modified the post.

Do you think I need to upgrade anything?

The car is low. Should I increase the ground clearance by adjusting all suspensions? Will it negatively affect drive quality?

My iDrive works but I cannot connect to the car Bluetooth.

The vehicle starts smoothly and runs smoothly too. Really really silent engine both internally and externally. If I don't horn, you would never know the car is on.

So I have a few questions.

I come from a Honda and Toyota background and I am used to seeing the temperature gauge. On this BMW, there is no temperature gauge. I have googled and watched a couple of YouTube videos but what they are saying does not make sense to me.

Recomended Oil is Castrol from the manual. I am tempted to ask. Can I use Mobil 1?

When servicing, do I change the 6 plugs too? The previous owner said he changes all plugs when changing oil. I never used to change plugs when servicing my Honda or Toyota.

The tires are fully gauged but the tire pressure light is still on. Any help?

Also, when I drive without wearing the seatbelt, it chimes on the iDrive. When I wear the seatbelt, the chiming stops but the seatbelt light stays on on the dashboard.

The only lights on my dashboard are tire pressure which is amber, Seatbelt which is red even when I put it on and airbag light which is also red.

Any help or pointers? I really want to treat this car like the baby that she is.
Anything to expect from the ride

I want to put it on a proper highway like Lagos-Ibadan and feel its raw power but I don't want any sudden problem coming up unexpectedly.

Feedback and comments are welcome.

chukel:
welcome to the club. I have used same 2008 535i since 2019. Very reliable. Only major fix was water pump. Bless us with pics.

Here you go.

735i:
You got the infamous N54 engine.
Make sure you stay up to date with maintenance and as often as you can, use octane boosters.
Although it's one of the marque's most potent engine, it can cause you heart and wallet ache if you're not up to date with preventive maintenance.

Why is it infamous?

What are the pros and cons?

If the engine is not good, why did BMW create and put it there?

Can another engine work?

I have always admired German cars from a distance. Most especially, BMWs.
My cars have been japanese. Toyota and Honda. My last car was a Honda Evil spirit. That car was a beauty. Sad to let her go.

Today, I became a proud owner of a 2007 BMW E60 525i.

Still Available.

I am selling because I upgraded.

Give me 120k or make me your best offer so we can reason together.

My location is Lagos. I can also waybill.

Chat me up on Zero Nine Zero 2 Zero 4682 Eight 9 let's discuss and see more pictures.

If I could keep the phone, I wouldn't sell. But I got a higher beast and this old baby needs a new owner.

abdsamad:
I turned on the 5g last week and I’ve since seen the logo pop up here and there around Igando in Lagos. Haven’t done a speed test because I’m generally not a 5g fan. My 4g works fine already. If I’m in the mood to do a speed test I’ll share the result here.
Network: MTN

Bro please can you share your apn settings?
My LG v60 is not reading my MTN and network doesn't come on. I don't know what else to do.

But it reads my Airtel well and gives me 4G.

But when I insert my MTN, I cannot turn on data.

Stanbic has increased salary 😁

By March, they will increase it again.

How is the dual screen for Verizon LG V60?

omotolsy:
LG V60 Dual Screen with adapter available.

Transparent case for LG V60 needed

07030771728

Is this still available?

I used to have an LG G8 Thinq.

The screen got bad and I couldn't fix it. This was far back 2018-2019.

I switched to Redmi note series. I used note 10 and note 11. The phone is good no doubt but it didn't give me that LG feeling.

Well, I am happy to announce that I am going back to the absolute love of my life.

The LG V60 5G

Wether LG has stopped production is their business. E no concern me.

My problem is how to buy the dual screen. Who can assist? I have searched everywhere and I don't know how to go about ordering it from this Ali express thing.

Please help.

Masdec:
Thank you for your time and assistance.

I worked with a commercial bank as contract staff for four years then joined a Fintech, this is my second year with them. I can't even recall when I applied( sometimes last year or so) but they sent a mail to me requesting for my credentials last week which I did, was scheduled for odyssey test and I wrote. I got a call that I would be scheduled for an interview in two weeks so I should be expecting details via mail.
I'm still yet to get confirmation from my current employer(Fintech) but I'm certain of getting it before the year runs out. I clocked 32 May this year. My question now is, won't the age be a barrier? What grade should I bargain for?

I will give a response to this later today.

Work choke me for neck. No vess for me abeg.

?

still available?

Dirty water dey quench fire no mean say you fit drink am.

@richmondefosa

Please how much do Stanbic IBTC pay their Tech gt? I have been pushed from regular gt to TECH gt. I would like to know if they are paid the same after Training School. Thanks

They are paid same thing.

The difference is that in Tech GT, you can only move within the Tech space. For regular GTs, they can move anywhere.

Hello Bro. I need you to put me through on Stanbic recruitment process.

I have gotten a mail to send my credentials to the HR for Experience Hire role. Please what next should I expect?

How does the assessment for Experience Hire looks like in Stanbic IBTC?

Again, what's the renumeration package for an Agent Managerial role with more than 2 year's experience in other bank as a non-core staff.

I would appreciate if you can find time to respond.

Hi, let me respond to this by itemizing them below.

1. Go through the thread, I have answered your number 1 question.

2. If you have gone through the thread, you will see where i mentioned that remuneration is based on grade and not by title. You can be a Branch Service Manager and be on BO grade. You will earn BO salary. Another person can hold the same position and be on AM grade and earn AM salary. I can only give you an idea on your salary if i know the grade. A non-core or contract staff from union bank that followed this thread got into Stanbic and was offered ABO on a 360k+ salary. She had 2 year plus experience.

3. The assessment is Odyssey. I have also explained this in the thread.

Is there anything else i am missing out? Please let me know.

geodemainguy:
Bro, please I seriously need your urgent assistance. I sent you a pm.

Hi again.

I have said several times that i cannot respond to pms. Something is wrong with my yahoo mail. When i reply, it bounces back. I have dropped my other email address here. Please do reach out.

Regards,
Richmond

MorataFC:
Still reasonable...
...but the part that customers will N25 per minute is a no-no for me.
How will this be calculated in a holdup?

Genuine question.

Is the Driver the cause of the hold-up?
There are peak periods when people predict when there will be traffic buildup in some certain areas.

Why should the driver be made to bear the cost by burning more fuel in traffic for a trip where the rider knows there will be traffic in that route at that period?

I have seen where riders cancel or make a driver end a trip in traffic. They come down and find alternative means but the driver is stuck in the traffic and has to find his way out.

I mean, I am just saying that we should also be considerate. These Drivers are also humans. If i know there will be traffic on a route at a certain time, instead of taking uber or bolt or whatever when i know ill pay more, i will find an alternative like taking bike or something. I dont know how it works in your area though.

geodemainguy:
Hello, please why do select the people you respond to?

Hi,

This is a very unfair and unkind thing to say.

I lead a very busy life. Work comes with a lot of pressure and tight deadlines. I close from work, get home and try to reply my messages on social media.

I still attend to mails. I still have personal studying to do. I still have to catch up on happening events. What time do you think I have to do all these? And then I still come to nairaland to provide updates and guidance.

What you've said is not fair.

I believe everything major information needed to guide people in joining Stanbic IBTC has already been provided by me. Go through the thread page by page and see if I haven't answered all the questions.
What you've said to me is unfair. I am doing my best to keep up.

Smartlegend2:

Samziecool:

Compare 1kg of fuel to 1 kg of gas

Do you buy fuel per kg?
Do you buy gas per liter?

You can only compare based on their unit cost. Fuel is sold per liter. Gas is sold per KG.

Goodness081:
Yes ooooo🎉🎉😭😭😭🎉🎉🎉🎉

Ah. This is a good one.
Congratulations big Chief.

Welcome to the blue family.
Send me a mail at love.richmond@unn.edu.ng

I'll provide my contact there so we can have an engaging discussion. Let me give you a proper onboarding tour.

Congratulations once more. Wishing you a long and rewarding career with Stanbic IBTC.

Samziecool:
Yes oooo.....e don drop @richmondefosa thank you very much for all the insight! God bless you!

Have you gotten your letter?

Smartlegend2:
Hi Richmond, you said ABO is the entry level…. I’m coming in as an experienced hire with ET, will they still give me the same ABO?

I think this depends on the number of years you have as an ET with your current employers.
But one thing I'm certain of is that you won't be getting the same salary.
