Boss, most of the roles are placed on 6 months, which in most cases serves as part of a probation period to monitor & see if you can deliver on the job, they always get extended (subject to availability of funds) so you need to do some more research, be willing to take risk, connect with folks already working in the organization to give you information about the work culture of the organization, funding availability, career progression, risk taking....etc......


I know a couple of folks who started with the 6months contract, but they are still in the UN system till date.....get in first & start solving the mathematics of your next move from day 1.


I took the risk, started with 6 months, now am counting years in the system, I asked a lot of questions in my case, did a lot of Google search, connected with professionals in my feild....never take these for granted.

Hope this helps..

What you should do for B13 (according to the list xcitedjay shared [which is accurate])

1. CHANGE your engine oil and filter

2. Rotate your tyres

3. Change your transmission fluid. Very important and so easy to do. (Take your car to a pit and let them drain the transmission oil, replace with exactly 3 quarts of transmission fluid and ensure there are no leaks. You don't want gear problems in your Honda)

4 Reset the service engine light so the time for your next routine maintenance can be properly estimated

Hi everyone! Feels great back here after a long while. Never left actually but no contributions as I changed from 1998 accord to a 2003
Mercedes c240. Well, I'm back now, just got a 2016 accord v6. Glad to see Gazzuz,luvinghubby, adanny01, nurey still offering help since the last 6years (wow @ 283 pages so far) that's how long it took me. Back here to benefit from the wealth of knowledge and experience and share mine as well. I believe my choice of returning to Honda is worthwhile. Bless you all.

Good morning house,
I drive a Honda Accord 2006 model(DC) and lately I have been experiencing delay in transmission up to about 2 to 3 mins when engaged in drive or reverse early in the morning before the engine warms up. My mechanic said he suspects the sensors and advised I allow a Rewire to check it out for me. Pls I need assistance if their is anyone who had/has similar problem. I want to draw from your wealth of experience pls. Save a soul. I am in IBADAN and won’t mind a referral to an expert. Thanks

Kindly share contact and your experience with such personnel.

Thanks.

Hello guys,

Is a 6 months Nigerian used (unregistered) Honda Accord a good buy for 1.4m?

The engineer, says there isn't a major thing to fix in the car.

The body is fairly clean too.

Please share your thoughts.

A catalytic converter is a device incorporated in the exhaust system of a motor vehicle, containing a catalyst for converting pollutant gases into less harmful ones.

This device had been available in vehicles since the 1970's

The catalyst's job is to speed up the removal of pollution. The catalyst is made from platinum or a similar, platinum-like metal such as palladium or rhodium. A catalytic converter is a large metal box, bolted to the underside of your car, that has two pipes coming out of it.

The catalytic converter is very valuable because of the precious metals that are included in the converter, such as platinum, or platinum-like material such as palladium or rhodium. So, the more expensive the material, the more expensive it is to replace.

Due to the fall of the naira and a rise in the cost of precious metals like platinum and palladium, the contents of the catalytic converter is highly sort after. The parts have become an unusual windfall for thieves, who can make hundreds of naira from selling them to auto parts suppliers or scrapyards. Catalytic converters can be melted and the highly valuable metals, like palladium and rhodium, extracted.

At present a typical 2003-2018 Toyota Corolla catalytic converter (its content) can fetch between ₦100,000 -150,000.

How to prevent catalytic converter theft.

1 Do not leave your vehicle unattended with your roadside technician.

2. If you do, tell him bluntly that you have your catalytic converter intact and it should not go missing .

3. If for any reason you have catalytic converter failure and it has to be unblocked , collect all the contents, tie it up in a bag and contact me I'll show you where to sell it for good money

Please House, does coolant have effect on a car mileage? The reason am asking is because I discovered after adding coolant to my radiator for the first time in January, since then have noticed appreciable increase(improvement) in mileage, infact my car breathes better, covers the same distance with almost half the same litres. Am trying to know what I did right that could cause that significant increase in mileage. Before my Honda pilot covers about 65miles with 30litres, now the same 30litres gives roughly 100miles(this is only city driving with frequent stop and go)

My car (Honda Accord 2006) was over heating, so I took it to one mechanic who specialized on Hondas only. First, he said it was Themostat and should be removed. It was done but the problem continued. Next, he said that the fan was not working. I bought a new fan and replaced but the problem continued still. I went back and this time, he said that the top gasket had burnt and should be changed. I dropped the car with him and it was changed. But the problem continued, I went back and he discovered that the radiator cover was bad, which I changed before leaving the village. But I found out after changing the top gasket that check engine light appeared on the dashboard. I went to the mechanic village and was directed to one electrician who scanned the car. After the scan, he didn't tell me anything but told his boys to loose the sensor. I got angry and told them to close my bonet and went home. Later changed my oil but found out that oil life reads 15%. Could the sensor really be bad? I need an advice because I don't have more money to waste. The car is in the East.
