Wonderful laugh I had this morning. I had a similar experience in 2006. Brand new passat bought in 2005. A year later, gearbox was jumping the gun on gear 3. Took it to the seller, no warranty for gearbox says lanre shittu. Took it to Vw center and new gearbox is 1.1 m. Haba, brand new car? Changed gearbox used for 650k bought at Owode, same problem, petitioned Vw Germany and they made Vw center to pick up the car but they could not detect the fault. I then took the car to a rewire who later detected the gear ecu as the problem. To compensate for their inadequacies, Vw center gave us discount for the ecu at 90k and the matter was resolved. They then decided to give the engine an overhaul for free, less than 10000kms, and discovered that 2 connecting rods were bent. Engine drips water and very quiet when you start it. The long story is that by 2008, the same issue kept reoccuring and I eventually abandoned it to a mechanic who claimed I was owing him 150k for repairs that did not work. My experience and observations are, the vw brand is not good for Nigeria. The fuel we have does not work well with the brand. You will hear tales by moonlight with your Vw. No matter how adept the mech is, the Vw is best served parked away than being on the road.

Syngard global atf, 8 litres

As discussed, go ahead

Make I talk small. The importers of rymco are my close friends. Ee used their products way back 2014 until we discoverrd it was not suitable for the kind of vehicles we were involved in. On a cloder look, the only rymco that id ideal for my kind of cars is rymco appolo and that is never going to be available in the countty. Not all synthetic are synthetics, they are packaging. Therr are also too many mobil anx castrol in the market that are not the real thing. Mobil Nigeria told me that their oils sold in the country is to make oil change affordable. My opinion about these marketing companies is that they still dont know that 90% of our vehicles comes from the US and we should be having good oils from there. I once went to Eterna oil to tell them to stop selling their 5 w20 profesdionel because a lot of people are hurting. They said no one has complained and since I am nit their Pro, make i waka pass. Ps pardon the small typo errors, i dey under car dey type

Mercedes e320 using visco 2000? Lack of Money should not make you use a non oil. Mobil one on that Eclass will create a lot of sludge. Hook up to genuine oil sellers on nairaland. You will be glad you did.

Chai, what will you guys now say about the new lubrisco made in Aba which is Api sf but making waves in the east? Dead on arrival?

Same thoughts

Let the union key into askniid.org portal. It is already on ground especially for motor insurance. This initiative is from the Nigeria Insurers Association . If the union's employers have created a platform , why then are the workers planning an alternative? Confusion galore loading.....

How much is the tinted permit sir? How much is drivers license ?

Tinted permit is free but the driver's license is subject to negotiation with those whose job is it to procure

2 centers in Ikorodu and Ojodu. The one in Ikorodu is bigger. Also note that at these centers, you can get your police tinted permit and BCMR, get genuine insurance policies. All these are happening at these centers

You have a point. Do you buy brand new gear box for the landrovers?

we repair gear boxes for landrovers, i dont recommend changing them locally, even to buy engine of 1.5m locally is a no no for me. America get them full. The reason why i dont subscribe to local purchase of gearboxes unless when it is absolutely necessary is because 70% of these boxes in the last two years are naija used. If the op heeded the free diagnostics offer, it would have been a little issue that can be resolved. Honda civic is known as a car that does not interest mechanics because there is absolutely nothing to do on a civic but the money he spent is more than what i used to buy a 2011 gearbox for an Acura 3 yrs ago.

mobil atf d11e on a Honda 2003. Drain it quickly and use Honda DW1 and if you cant get one. get in touch with me. I sell Syngard Global Atf. My friend imported large quantities into the country and forgot about them. So I am helping to sell them.

I have Syngard global atf and Syngard 5w30 synthetic blend. Your car will be glad that you used it

Before you guys crucify Mazda engine, what about the op? He left sound counsel to go for roadside mecs and he never asked questions. What gear oil does your civic uses and which oil did they pour into your transmission ? If you dont know, then you are at fault. The gear selector cable was not properly aligned hence you need d3 to move into drive. If the oil is still leaking, I suspect that they used seahorse for the gear. Accept responsibility and move on. For those of you buying toks gearbox, there is nothing like that anymore. Its naija used gearboxes being refurbished as toks. There are some cars that it is better repaired than replaced and civic is one of them.

Breaking News, the Nigerian Customs service has withdrawn the illegal checkpoints across Nigeria except those within 40kms radius to the borders. For Lagos, the last checkpoint should be at Agbara. Anyone beyond that point is illegal. Drive your Range with ease now, go anywhere.....

Everytime you buy fuel, add 2 bottles and after the third fill up, use a bottle continuously at every fill up . The car will balance up and be on the move again. The difference between a toyota and Lexus is the fuel.

They are already complying. It is high time they leave our roads. You allow cars to come in illegally and then you wait for these same cars that you allowed in and impound it. Nothing happens to the group that allowed it in. Let them go and secure our borders. Ibadan toll gate is not a border town neither is Benin toll gate too. I once boarded a cab from Seme to Mile 2 years ago, at one of the numerous check points two customs officers were struggling to be the one to search the vehicle and the way I looked at them made them to be cautious and they tried to know who I was and I ignored them and they let us go out of fear. Their conduct is shameful on the road

Unleaded Regular doing its stuff. Don't bother changing anything, just look for good octane booster and you will be free from this wahala. Try Shoprite

Actually, there are 2 sons of God we have been expecting.

1.) Yaheshua the son of Joseph the Carpenter who whom my great-grand-mother & my grand-father waited 2000years for - until they kpeme in Ijebu.

2.) Mohammadu Shuaibu Buhari - the descendant of Mohammadu Subhanah-Watahallah bin terrorist Al-72virgins - dan fulani from Daura who single-handedly transformed my people from a “4square-meal a-day spoilt-brats” into “bicycle & gas cylinder-thieving-longnecked camels-due-to-hunger” - and who also made the Amerikan dollar to swell like garri-ijebu from 175Naira to 575Naira within 3days of his ascension to power - thereby causing inflation, deflation, recession, economic menstruation, ovulation, abortion & destabilization - all at the same time

Now, my priend, which of these 2 is currently chilling in your house - so that my people can ascertain whether na petrol or diesel dem go carry come burn down your house?

I believe it is the 2nd son that is chilling in Nurey's house. Please consider his neighbours and don't go with such liquids, send just a warning letter for the 2nd son to show his pace.

Nurey, it is not an exclusive news, it is everywhere . Don't forget that I am a tow truck operator and I have information at my finger tips. Read more from the Guardian. The order was given to the customs by the Presidential committee on ease of business and the Customs have no choice than to comply. I saw a convoy of the Customs at Fou in ikeja and told one of them that we have driven them away from the road. They were aiding corruption on the road.

The Nigerian Customs Service has directed all illegal checkpoints to be dismantled. The Dcg in charge of enforcement Dan Galadinma gave this order to all units and commands. By this news, no customs checkpoints should be found on any road in Nigeria except within the radius of 40k to the borders. Motorists winning the battle since 1930
