When is the expiry date?

Am in the hope that he won’t have reasons to sue Coscharis like a Senior Advocate did recently about a supposedly brand new Jaguar Saloon sold to him.

Coscharis don't sell brand new cars, in fact no dealer sells brand new cars. Any car made and not sold immediately is used brand new car.

This is not the first of its kind in Nigeria. We trucked the first one, 2019 model customized for Nigerian fuel in January this year from Owerri to Lagos. The owner took it to Owerri for Xmas and he claimed that he paid 140m for duty. The car uses regular unleaded fuel. The bad thing about it was I told myself that I will drive a Rolls Royce today only for my driver to enter the car and roll it down from the truck. I shouted, ha village people......

Awolowo86:
Please I use a Ford escape 2008, which ATF will be compatible with my engine?
Will Oando ATF be ok??

No, it will not work. Use Total mvlv

Solatium:
I bought the Vehicle about a month ago and never know what the previous owner put in it, though the vehicle has not been in use regularly because he has multiple cars.

Atf ws is the recommended oil. Use Total mvlv

Mobil 1 0w40, for Mercedes class 2012

Solatium:
I drive 2008 Toyota Corolla, transmission vibrate at 80 but becomes normal immediately after 80.What do you suggest I do,as I read wrong ATF can cause this.

Did you use any brand that is not suitable for the car?

radautoworks:
Only match in my catalogue for this car is
CARQUEST Transmission Fluid DEX VI; AT Transmission:8HP70 OEM: Shell M-L12108 | N5,015 per quart

Good. That's better. Will make arrangements for some.

radautoworks:
I'm assuming it's for a Chrysler or affiliate product. Year make and model or VIN please. Can't search inventory without one or the other

Range Rover Sports 2015

Congratulations to the executive governor of oyo state.

Do you have 8 speed transmission fluid?

niyoni:
Hi @sooperrescue. Do you sell engine oils and transmission fluids? And do you have an outlet in Warri or Port Harcourt?

no, but I can recommend some to you if you tell me your car model

weyreypey:
Gear gets hooked when downshifting from 4 to 3 and stays in 3 until a restart can dirty oil cause this?

Is it for the Benz? Change the oil and gear filter

erico2k2:

Zingun:
Please i have 2004/2005 BMW 325xi E46, which engine oil is advisable to be used in servicing the car? it has about 97k Miles on it.

Castrol 5w30 petrol engine oil

Tough question. Buy the Lexus since you are using it for a month and resell. A diesel engine is good even with the dirty diesel but to sell it quickly is the issue unless the circle where you hang out might make the difference.

LeJeun3:


How do you effectively diagnosis the vehicle before giving a quote??

Cent million dollars question?

tensazangetsu20:
This guy's don't know that new cars are so complex that even car dealers cant fix. The CAN bus system is the one I hate as it needs a scope to diagnose it has confused my scan tool so many times. It's not about fixing you must know the engineering of cars inside out.

And they expect you to send a quote for the job that even the owner of the car does not know what is going on. They will tell you say I dey hear one noise for the engine and I want you to give me quote. Even herbalist wey dey use laptop nor go see that noise talk less of hearing it

CityNGR:
Curious... How many times have you been arrested in the course of your work?

When I was doing this type of job, I was a regular customer in Panti to the extent the police were calling me federal government as the cases always ended in my favor. When you delegate a job that is not within your control to another, you will have to carry many crosses.

tensazangetsu20:
This is a very good idea. I also hope that you or someone else in your founding team is very good with automobiles and very proficient in car repairs himself. With advanced cars, it takes more than just vetting mechanics. Many don't know what they are doing and you could go to prison if you ruin someons car by repairing especially if you don't have liability insurance. Cars are very complicated today. They are getting worse especially since the introduction of CAN bus systems so have someone proficient on your team.

Besides there's an issue with your pricing system so it's gonna be very hard getting reliable mechanics. Cars are very complicated now and require some insane expensive tools to fix. No one is going to buy all those tools and then charge a pittance. You are just starting anyway and you would learn as you go by but be prepared it's not gonna be easy at all.

That's a good advice. I get such proposals from a group and they tell me to send a quote. What quote? For a car that you have not seen and even the owner does not know the oil that was used to service the car. Maybe the new start up is focusing on Toyota cars where plugs are sold for 3k but I know that laser plugs are sold for 5k a piece for Toyota. So where do you factor the lowest price from? Plan well before you enter the business if not na panti go be your branch office.

I have one in my workshop that we are fixing. Solid car, no gear box fault or suspension inactive. The police still have some that they use for pulling out their ogas from the force. The latest model of this brand can buy 3 range sports

rhames:
Whats my bill for this beast?

Not yet prepared. We will let you know when it is ready

NeyofeedNigEnt:
Thank you so much Boss!

Some are saying changing the oil can cause gear failure.
Is that right?

To be on the safe side, change the oil when the car is cold, like after 3 hours. But it is a myth.

NeyofeedNigEnt:
Please house.
I have a 2005 mercedes Benz ML.
The gear is working very good and select smoothly but sometimes I noticed some sound from d gear when I shift it to drive and no sound when shifted to neutral.
Today I checked the gear oil I noticed is somehow dirty.

What can be done pls
If I should change my oil which one is advisable?
Should I change the filter too or just d oil?

Change the oil and gear filter. Total atf is a dexron 6, it will be ideal for your car

victor54:
Should I top up or change completely

Drain completely, wash or change the gear filter and put fresh oil

victor54:
Please I have a matrix 2004, the mechanic confirmed d transmission oil is low. He advised I should top up. Please what's ur take and what atf should be used?

Total mvlv

NewBea:
Lemme just throw this in.
Recently bought a 2007 Pontiac vibe. Toks. So i changed the oil for the first time yesterday,and after following the car dealer's advice,i poured in the Mobil 20w50 (facepalm). Shortly after the sound of the engine changed,im nt even kidding. Got worried and flipped through the manual of the car,and saw that the recommended is ONLY 5w30 (another facepalm).
Im really worried.
Now that the mobil is already in use..should i just continue using it until the engine gets used to it or i shld revert immediately?
The Quartz 9000 price is on the high side tbh.

You know what to do. Use the recommended oil. Total q9000 is 5w40. Look for 5w30 gasoline engine only and you will enjoy the car
