When my car landed in nigeria, the mechanic that serviced the car weeks back used a SAE 20W-50 for the servicing.

I just checked the engine cap and I discovered that the recommended OIL is SAE 5W -20 orS” SAE 0W - 20

Could this harm the engine? What do you suggest i do?

I am new to automobiles

Tips to enable me enjoy the car. I've heard that it is a very great ride to own. I've also heard that it can give issues if not properly maintained.

Share with me your own candid opinions.

Do you still use the Honda accord 2006/2007? I am getting one and I need all the information I required.

Thank you

I went as far as using honda oil 5w20, and I didn't see any improvements in my mpg. Right now, I try to drive gently to see if i would get any improvement, my tires are within the 30/40psi, i have a competent mechanic, i also buy fuel from two service stations because their pumps are better. I have no excess weight in the car. I am exploring cleaning my injectors after changing my 6 plugs to brand new ngk iridium plugs. What's you mpg from full to half tank for city drive?

osato45:
I drive a v6 2006 accord dc and I average 100 - 120 miles from full to half tank, what solution did you apply that worked, did cleaning of your injector work?

Hello all,

I am in urgent need of a spare parts dealer/reliable mechanic in oladipo who can deal with my accord 07.

Car brake pedal shakes on high speed suggestive of faulty brake disc.

Washed engine and now it jerks. Water in plugs?

Engine vibrates when placed on D, whilst totally stopped in traffic.

After struggling and hustling to get a job all to no avail, a friend assisted me with 300k to start anything but what came to my mind first is transport.


I have survey on how to help these market women and men convey their goods to their various places and I discovered is more convenient with the service fee, so I asked my uncle, my mom's immediate bro who is a mechanics since 16yrs ago. He said he had one Nissan 1.6 that's owned by one late woman and the thing is in his shop, he said they want to sell it 250,000 but is negotiable. He said the car is faultless


Please is it advisable I go for the Nissan 1.6 as golf was what I've in mind. Please advise me

Please I need an expert advice on how convenient, and economical is the 2015 Lexus es 350.

How about its maintenance capacity and fuel economy.

I really need a sound knowledge of the car.

Much appreciation in advance.

there are specific shades and hues of green which the law refers to as army green, any green outside those shades is perfectly legal to own and use

but you know naija and illegalities, expect one ignorant law enforcement officer to harass you even when your green is not specifically prohibited by the law

id4sho:

it's in the law

lol so I’m really confused... I really don’t know what to do it’s my first time.

1. I thought of going with a mechanic and I thought to myself that this would be something I shouldn’t do in a hurry so does that mean everyday I’ll be going from lot to lot checking cars haha I go be like who no serious and the mechanic go chop my money for each waka besides, how much will I be paying the mechanic per each trip.


2. When I see the car of my choice would I go to inside bank with the dealer to withdraw and give him cash? Cause I don’t want to do transfer and sit down and be waiting for alert of 2.5m to reflect only God know the kind sweat wen go catch me for middle of yansh.


3. But then if I see a car I like and then pay 3k for vin check only to realize it has accidents history would I just take my mind away and keep paying 3k every time cause trust me Nigerian auto dealers would lie that the title is clean until you do your check yourself on the vin.


4. Ok finally I thought to myself abi make I just align with this kakakibuy gimporters adexfem gazzuzz guys (the big dons) lol to just order from overseas and have it delivered to me here at my backyard in front of my landlady’s dormot....

Kai I’m just confused... guys I need advise....

The car I intend getting is between one of the following;

2002-2005 Lexus ES 300/330
2006 Toyota Avalon
2007 Toyota Camry


And my budget is

Guys please advise me... I’m a young guy my mid 20’s.

Please just advise a brother �

It is illegal to use such colour for your car in Nigeria... It is reserved for the military!!!

rationalmind:


In addition, when checking reviews, it's important to be mindful of the date the review was made.

If I'm looking into a 2010 Nissan Altima for instance, I'll be looking into reviews posted between 2016-2020. Since I'll most likely be buying one that is close to or above the 100k mile mark, I can get a more detailed picture of what to expect.

Their CVTs fail way before 100k miles, more like around 60k.

For any car you intend to buy, if it has a CVT, research via Google to ensure it wasn't produced by JATCO. They make CVTs for Nissan and some other companies... And their end product is nothing to write home about

meetgaby:
What do you think sirs. Nissan or Honda

GAZZUZZ:


I'm not a Mazda fan, I think they are money pits.

sooperrescue:

Not suitable. Go for 5w20
