Gurus please educate me on this issues.
1. Can parking car for a long time like 3 weeks cause it not to start quickly? My civic 07 Asian type gave me this issue before it finally start.

2. Is it normal for car engine to change sound while car is idle and the steering is turned left or right? I mean I turned my steering and heard this humming sound and can still be heard even when I turn while driving.
Mechanic said it's normal for power steering to make such noise.

Good day men and gazzuzu

Pls how else do one diagnose LOW OIL PRESSURE ON 2010 CORROLA.

Immediately you drive to some certain hours ,the low oil pressure will come on with a warning sound "pon pon".

It will be coming at intervals until you shutdown, den it won't come up until engine is on for some hours again.

NB : All the oil are new with filter and still very gaged. My kazeem said it's oil pump dat I will need to change and instead of doing that I should forego the engine and replace with a new one. I.e sell the engine at this stage and have it replaced.


His reason is that the pump changing is actually difficult and we may not found a compatible oil pump like, out of 10, it may be two that will work and this will only be confirmed after some hours drive again and the indications refuse to pop which means if we r doing so, we could b opening the engine everyday for 10 days just to get the compatible one. .
This is the dilemma I found my self and have tot to seek better solution from professionals here.


CC: Gazzuzu promax and everyone here.

My location is Riverstate for who can be of help physically.
Pls don mind my grammar.I just drop it d way e de pain me.

Please seek experts advice. Your mechanic is a con artist

With the change of ownership, and renewal of all papers with 3rd party insurance I was charged 70k here in Lagos. The least I saw was 65k. Man had no choice and it actually took them 6weeks. Just imagine

Happy New Year to everyone here o. May this 2022 be rewarding in all aspects of our lives than last year.

Hope you'll maintain the same energy when a man comes out to display his goods in public as well or should I arrange for the imp to poison you again?

Please enlighten me here my Ogas. I have two issues

1. My 2007 Europe civic radiator fan start rolling immediately the car is started even when the engine has not warmed up. The car is 9ja used bought. Does it mean the thermostat has been removed? I'm planning to refill the radiator with coolant as it's only water in it.

2. I also noticed that anytime I put on the AC, i don't immediately feel it until after some minutes and when car is idle and I put on the AC, I kinda hear some sound coming from the engine by the passenger side like a running or boiling water. If I step outside the car, I don't hear this same sound only while inside.
Please I need explanation and guide on what to do to rectify these two issues

Dailyparrot:
An Uber rider requested me and I drove to his house. When he came out, he said that the place he selected is different from where he's going.

I told him to update the location and the next thing I saw was "rider canceled". The Ekuke canceled the ride while sitting inside my car.
But Uber will be giving you 20 minutes pickup when there's a five minutes request close to you. Not until you keep rejecting those long pickup that you will eventually get the closer one.

While I was waiting to see if he could get me, I kept refusing other requests coming to me not knowing that this nigga has gotten another driver and was stylishly waiting for him inside my car.

As I was watching what was going on from my rear mirror, this idiot of a guy ran back and entered my car again that I should carry him to his destination. I asked him how much he wants to pay and he said it's a 500 naira trip.

If not that yesterday was a Sunday, what will it cost me to just give the dude some headbutt.

I told him to leave my car at once.

I really suffered yesterday because I couldn't get Bolt cash trips. The only 3 trips I did on Bolt fetched me 12k gross, whereas all my Uber trips yesterday from morning til night could only get me 13k net.

I truly lost out of Bolt surging trips yesterday

Better days ahead bro

Pilots, help me thank God, I almost lost my car to fire today around ikoyi axis of Lagos.

My car just stopped on motion and started smoking seriously, at some point, I was numb and don't know what's happening, then I quickly snapped out of the shock and disconnected the battery contact.

This is the fate of my car now, thank God the damages hasn't gotten to the brain box, only the wires was burning before I took action.


May we not loose what we labour for in seconds ooo...

I'm still in shock as I type this.

Thank God for saving you and your car o. And amen to your prayer. Going back to square one in this 9ja may we not experience it o

I go miss out this December. Make I go hibernation till next year

geezyk:
Dem don subtly increase commission to 23%

Grossed 23.7k and bolt commission was over 5k, that one never pass 25% commission?

I don't think so bro.
Here is a breakdown receipt of my ride today. Riders still pay the booking fee.

Felicity0001:
Even at that it shouldn't take that long na 3weeks already and still counting? That's too much na. Talk to him sharperly tell him you are tired of waiting.

The person you bought the car from hope he gave you the duties and original documents?

They the person gave you the plate number? If not, try Talk to him and see if he can release the plate to you to use pending when yours will be ready. But note it's his personal property and may want to use it so tell him you'll return it as soon as yours is ready.

Yes bro, I have all the original paper but the plate number has already been assigned to another car

Felicity0001:
I hope you've not been scam ooh try see the person one on one to know whats going on.

My tokunbo car was within 24hrs to get everything I sent money to the guy and he sent me snap shot of all the document the next day apart from the police extract or rcm don't know what they call it again, it was on a Friday and he said police dont work on that Friday but everything was delivered to me on Monday.

So try see your contact something must be wrong somewhere. Or is the car a naija used?

It's change of ownership. Bought 9ja used.
I will talk to the person. Thanks

ReadaDream:
New car registration is less than 24 hours.

Is yours new or change of ownership?

Change of ownership

Felicity0001:
That's what they do i experienced it last week as well... As my -ve bal got to 5k+ I got a cash trip to surulere on 1.9x from Lekki so I insisted the guys must change it to card payment as its already late night and Friday for that matter so even if I pay it will take till Monday b4 it will reflect. They agreed and reordered again.

Trip ended 3.5k bolt took about 2hrs to reconcile my account.

Bolt is never sincere at all.

Another one was, all the trips I did on a particular day was not counting even my dashboard was on a stand still yet the -ve balance was the only thing that was changing.

At COB id to restart my phone b4 I knew how much total I worked and Nos of trip done.

Bro please how long does it take to get a new plate number with complete car papers. I was promised 2-3 weeks and it's been 3 weeks now yet no show

ReadaDream:
Una sure say this LEKKI Gardens phase 2 is not a haunted place?

....because what's all these abandoned houses everywhere..

Some people here are actually big men. Bro I saw your product today.

tunlapapa:
Hold your ears and head to maryland mall after reading this.
I made this enquiry just for you.

Moove now uses the normal camry and corolla which they also DTO.
The good thing I saw in the package, it's just for 18 months and the car becomes yours, but its only on ubergo.

12 trips,10 hrs daily! You can do this if you are not lazy.

12 trips every day and 10hrs daily for 18months. Who handles repair? And after the 18 months, vehicle become yours?
And still be paid daily?

Ghost1994:
Bro good day, the one I did back then was Corola 2016 and it’s for KPI you’ve to meet with 45trips and 60hours online. Which I think they later force some set to do DTO drive to own.

But you see this new one have many policies I don’t know much about. You can just try and visit their office at Maryland first floor ask for Moove office.

Goodluck bro

Okay sir, thanks so much

Ghost1994:
Bro I’ve done Moove and it’s not easy but trust me you can’t die. Set a goal and targets and see how quick you’ll make it. My goals and targets then was to use the money I saved and get my engine.

You can easily be sourcing for another car while driving with Moove cos you’ll meet lot of people and join WhatsApp group which can open doors for you.

But you can’t get any helper for gamble house (you can never get anybody wey go help you in this life for bet naija shop)

So buckle up and trash that sense of making small money for bet shop while wasting your time.

The last time I advised you was July or august and since then you’ve not gotten a car? Supposed you joined Moove then, and be saving 2k everyday you work, by now you will be aiming big because na Moove Dey repair their vehicles. Majority of us that left Moove did so because we’ve gotten another option or we own our cars.

Please wake up today at least use this December take hustle for car and by Gods grace you’ll get your own.

Abòroò lama n so fun owoluabi

Peace

Bro abeg, this moove, will one be driving for a full day or there is time frame to drive. Like maybe between so so hour to so-so hour. And the 4k daily payment, must one meet a particular target between the hour one is online before them go pay? Is the payment daily or weekly or monthly. Abeg I need answer to this inquiry for a friend.

Pearl1910:

How much is Honda civic 2007 engine. Japan?

luvinhubby:
Year and model of vehicle?

What are the faults noticed?

2007 Civic. Asian type.
Engine light with a spanner on its side is displayed on the dashboard.
ABS and hand brake light also displayed.
Then those other codes I posted from the scanner

Olayetan:
Can someone tell me something cux i seems to be lost, is there any award to be given to highest earner on this job?

Maybe that's the reason why someone is bragging up and down about his earnings.


Or cheerfulgiver, can you tell me the reason why you're showing all this earnings and bragging about how you change your car from matrix to 2013.

Are you intimidating or telling others to defile their health status so as to get motivated by your earnings.

There's nothing like lazy driver in this hustle cux what's pursuing you it's not pursuing me, if you feel 50k will meet up your need for a certain week, pls don't kill yourself cux you saw someone earning 200k and beside, we have different plan, someone earning 50k maybe be doing better in responsibility than someone making 200k.

Oga you better face your front if you don't know their history before they all use you as lab specimen for experiment. Them know themselves and the dashboard posting is meant for certain population here

Dear Nairalanders,

How much will it cost to learn to drive a car in Lagos?

Which driving school is best to use while being cost friendly and offering best service?

Learning to Drive a car is top of my goal list, late this year or early next year.

Your opinion counts.

1) AA Driving School

2) A1 Driving School

3) Gamgee Driving School.

I only know they are based on the Island, Ikota Shopping Complex. Though they might have offices in other parts of Lagos.
