Madam, changing an engine is a choice and it is not yours to make.

What if that OEM valve stem seals you suggest plus labour and other materials cost ¾ of the cost of an engine replacement? What if he just wants to kill all the birds with one stone and he can afford to? After all that initial 1.3m could get a sound engine eliminating all the seals, the oil pump, sump and everything about the engine that you have so far done without success.

You stock valve stem seals if I am not mistaking but you don't stock tokumbo engines, isn't it obvious why you are against an engine replacement. Before you fixed his car initially, you were supposed to do a comparative cost analysis if he doesn't know what to do but you led him in a perilous path.

Note that everything you've done on that engine so far was throwing money in a shredder as long as the problem was still there.

Your clients do have opinions that could differ from yours so learn to be a little flexible. Also look at the economic aspect of whatever solution you provide.

Your blaming third party parts is just saving face.

Please say less from now on
Perfectly said.

Hello,

I'm sorry to hear this and glad you are okay.

That much smoke means most likely bad valve seals or the rings. If the smoke is at startup after being parked for a while and eases off (like it seems to in the video), it is the valve seals- which we did not provide. YOU DO NOT, I REPEAT, YOU DO NOT NEED A NEW ENGINE. when parked for a while, the oil is leaking through the valve seals into the exhaust. When the car is started, it burns off giving the white smoke you see. If it was the rings, the smoke would not stop or ease off. No matter where you go next, do not let them sell you an engine. Simply get high quality valve seals and have them installed.

P2647 has to do with the VVT which was leaking badly. We corrected the leak because a lot of the time that clears the code and saves you having to buy a sensor. In addition, compared to your other problems, the sensor was not considered a major issue.

On the P0430 catalytic converter code, as you see below, it was not present at either visit however the oxygen sensor (P2251 & P0134) we told you about is on the same bank as the catalytic converter that is now throwing a code which is not uncommon.

As far as the rear differential, when we looked at it, it had a bad seal which you also provided and we replaced. Had it been bad, there would have been an unmistakeable roaring sound when the car was driven. I don't know what, if any, bad roads may have damaged your differential but the only problem with it when it came to us was the seal.

Given how displeased you were, I'm surprised you embarked on a long distance journey without a third party check which would have removed all ambiguity. I was anxiously eagerly awaiting the results. As much as I sympathize, we cannot bear responsibility for third party parts. We took the motor apart twice because of the oil pump (another third party part).

I wish you all the best but can no longer invest time and money into this vehicle unless we use our own parts.
Dude! Can you stop giving excuses, going thru the post you said it repeatedly that his vehicle was good to go and your tech Glenn took it for road test several times, now you're trying to play your way round the issue, your tech does not have an idea how to fix these things, just apologize and move on, too much grammar does not equate to technical know how. Your workshop failed the guy, simple.

to charge it, you need a maikano.
You guys just come online to type rubbish, the tesla needs DC to charge not AC and most generators have DC outlets, it just might take more time using a smaller generator but it will charge.

pocohantas:
Let me understand this;

Woman says the body is hers and she has the right to keep a pregnancy or terminate it. Fine. But whichever way it goes, you expect the man to play along? cheesy

This particular woman entered a relationship with a married man. He never lied about his marital status. She wasn’t a minor, she was 32! 32!!

At 35, she decided to keep a pregnancy, but the man said he doesn’t want her to, he isn’t ready to be the father. She took him to Area Command and she got their support, thankfully abortion is illegal in Nigeria.

She had that baby and the man has refused to support her. She is now calling on Nigerians to beg him to play his fatherly role. A role he clearly showed he doesn’t want to play even before the baby was born.

Her best bet is to take him to court. She will learn the hard way that you can force a horse to the stream, but you can’t force it to drink the water.
You didn't add the fact that she is now married

Not only hausafulanis and yoruba muslims know how to repent.

One fact you should know about Evans, all his victims were wealth Igbo men in Lagos. And you want that kind of person to be let loose? You think he will go into another business other than kidnapping?

8 ) You bought this vehicle for about 400k if I remember correctly. When you did, you knew it had extensive issues. We did extensive work to make the car road worthy (which we maintain it is). For this work, we charged about 200k. This is exclusive of the 119k worth of work in picture 3 below that we did not charge you for.
This is very disappointing, what's your business if he bought the car for 100k or even got it for free? If you had issues with that you should have turn it down and asked him to go else where for repairs.

I had the same vehicle 2008 red Acura, I drove it without issues for 2years until my mech forgot to replace the oil filter properly after service and the engine almost knocked, I was adviced to change the engine and my mechanic offered to split the bill but I declined because he was honest about his mistake, my cousin was interested in the vehicle, dashed her for 250k and she bought a tokunbo engine and vehicle runs fine till date.

@op immediately you saw the over a million bill, you should have just bought a tokunbo engine and all these will be history.

@radautos couldn't fix it and they are afraid of coming out to say this.

This statement is so scandalously unprofessional, unpardonably infantile and profoundly shameful.

If Mr. Danladi Umar read and approved this statement before it was released to the public, one could comfortably question his qualifications as a lawyer, the soundness of his reasoning as a judge, his mentality as NIGERIAN public servant and his maturity as an adult human.

The mere fact that he already sees some Nigerians as non-Nigerians is too dangerous to ingnore for a man who is supposed to be FAIR and JUST in treating cases as Chairman of Code of Conduct Tribunal. I strongly recommend that National Judicial Council (NJC) should review Mr. Danladi's poor professional conduct and take action immediately.
Same way people tag every criminal as HERDMEN
