Omoapena: I hate that noise from Google map, it annoys me and I don't keep my eyes on Google map, I just glance through the route it suggests and I know where to pass till I get closer to destination. U know lagos roads very well na. I prefer the voice directing me than looking at the screen. |

Ajibaiye: Bosses please which of these below maps you use on a daily basis that don’t disappoint.
1. Google Maps
2. Waze
3. Map No be everything you go ask oga. Use them. Experience will tell u which u prefer. Someone might say this and you end up preferring that. I did e-hailing briefly in 2022. I used Google map. I tried Waze and I didn't like it then because it wasn't voicing out as Google map voices out directions. Maybe I didn't set the waze well but then I returned to my Google map. I have also seen someone use the Google map but removed the voicing out because he didn't like the noise. So use them and find what works best for u. |

Benagro: Thanks so much. Exactly, the noise is sometimes embarrassing and just like you said I guess it maybe the belt isn't the correct size, pls how do I know the correct size or number for civic 06 Use Google |
Car Talk › Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by vivalavida(m): 7:51am On May 25, 2025 |
Benagro: Yes, in fact it was fixed wrongly(too tight) so it cut and since then the noise has increased after fixing again Check if the correct belt size was used. I suffered this thing last two weeks on my car. My mechanic fixed a wrong belt size and I didn't know. My bearings started making embarrassing noises. It became so noisy shame dey catch me tonput on the car at home. I bought 2 more belts of same size and the noise won't go away. He said it was the rollers. I told my colleagues and they said na wrong belt size. I went to my former mechanic and he got my main belt and the noise stopped. My car uses 6pk1753 belt size and the former mechanic was putting 6pk1791. Until I got the right belt size, that's when the noise stopped. |

FILEBE: It's a 2008 model. There's water in the tank when checked. I removed thermostat to check if maybe the thermostat malfunctions but same thing still happens when parked uphill.
Fuel pump checked, it's okay. I could parked on a level ground for days and come back to start my car. If I park inclined upward with engine off for over 3 to 4 hours, the sparkplugs become water wet. Temperature gauge reads normal .
Some people said head gasket or a hole somewhere on the engine block or cylinder head.
I want to be sure, i don't want them doing trial and error method 2008 model of what suv oga? |

Djdamian: While filling out the online registration, I selected "factory tint" as my option but didn’t upload any supporting documents. I hope that won’t be an issue?
Also, I noticed there’s a mention of a non-refundable fee, so I decided to pause the process until I get some clarity. this is exactly where i stopped. meanwhile i saw somewhere either on this nairaland or twitter where people were saying they were paying as much as 20k to policemen before they could attend to them. some said if u no pay, they will just look away from you and the stress of coming the next day with the vehicle to that place will make you cough out the money.

You still owe me MF, either you pay me so I can shut up for life or you keep rolling and we pretend like we don't see each other. Onigbese Pay me oooo Make una dey try use correct english abeg. Some of una english dey cause headache.There is nothing like sticked to. Use stuck not sticked. Also know when to use full-stops and comma. After that your gbagaun sticked to, a full stop should follow and not a comma. Same issue after you still owe me MF. I come in peace. |
