HAvoc. Thanks for the recommendation. It is absolutely worth it.

Though I think the movie should have been named Mess, because it was one hell of a mess. Lol

Lol....I totally agree,felt similar way while I was watching it.
Was like this movie is really messy, lots of bloody fights.

Tribal sentiments apart, the rejection of a newly appointed bishop by mbaise people is totally absurd and shows how highly bigoted mbaise people are *not all Igbos*
I see one Monica Vitalis twisting stories to make it look like other tribes are hating on Igbos. mbaise people remain the most bigoted clan in Igbo land. Bishop ogbalaeke was rejected because he is from Anambra State, they said why Anambra person when they have over 800 priest and non has been made bishop. They even threatened to pull out of catholic church..imagine ,,,

To imagine that the same Mr. Vitalis also threatened to pull out of the holy mother church says a lot about him. Well, I'm not really shocked one bit, the same diocese carried coffin then saying that they will bury the bishop sent to them if he ever steps foot on their soil.
Mbaise people no try one bit,most of them were deceived by overzealous priests then.

And so i bought my first car (toyota corolla 2003) 2years ago from GAZZUZZ following a recommendation from a friend, tried to call him since this month cos i want to upgrade and dash my younger brother the corolla,i couldnt reach him only for me to come to Nairaland to see that this young man is late, May God bless his soul. That being said, i have gone through the Auto section, i can see a lot of car dealers here but i hardly see any review from people that have bought from them when i go through their car thread.please i will so much appreciate if anyone can recommend a trusted car dealer on this platform.these are the cars i have in mind
Toyota rav 4 from 2008 and above
Or any 9ther suv from 2008
I would prefer toks but i dont mind a clean Naija used

Indeed Gazzuz was the best,may he continue to rest in peace. Well, from my experience I will recommend only one person "tpound" if you are in Lagos. He's so knowledgeable about his craft and don't ever compromise. Use him and you will be happy you did.

Warning, long epistle.

Back then, my mum used a 1996 accord. We had serious PS issues with the car starting from when my dad decided based on one corrupt mechanic's advise to change the PS pump that was leaking PS fluid. A "toks" pump was installed but failed the next day. I returned the car to same mechanic but guess what, he said he threw it away and someone must have carried it . For more than a year we changed 3 more pumps, all gave up within less than a week.

My mum wrestled with that steering for over a year until i travelled for a wedding with the car to Jalingo, Taraba state. The alternator gave up. I got a toks and used the mechanic to do some other checks on the car. After the repairs, the mechanic drove the car and was disappointed about the steering. He recommended his boy check it but i was skeptical. He insisted, i obliged. Luckily, i had the 2 non working pumps in the boot. This mechanic bought N500 fuel, chose 2 of the pumps, opened both then chose one. Washed it throughout, bleed the steering rack of all PS oil (ATF). He bought 1 litre of road side drum engine oil. Reinstalled everything back.

Voila! It took 3 years before we had any issue(steering hose leak).

On my own car, 2003 accord, i had a steering rack seal leak January this year. A mechanic said he can change the seal. He did the change successfully but used Seahorse Dexron III ATF to refill the PS system. Steering was perfect, so I thought.

Drove to a filling station to add fuel during that fuel crisis, the steering totally went out on me, i almost crashed into a parked car. PS was totally out and pump whinning/fuming. I thought air was getting into the system. Managed to park in the fuel queue. 10mins later line moved, started engine and steering came back perfectly. Line moving slowly, 2mins later whine started and PS went out again. From then on, 2mins after restarting the car it will go out and 10mins if its a cold start. The pump will be untouchable due to how hot it was. The next one month i did several DIYs, installed clips in all ts, tried all bleeding methods, washed the PS fluid reserve tank and up to 5 total pump disassemblies tweeking one thing or the other each time.

The frequency of the problem reduced when i spilled the PS fluid in the reserve tank and filled with engine oil. So it was part ATF part engine oil. This time, ps never goes out completely but whining is present just like before.

I took the car to Panteka Kaduna, (for those who know), they do some magic with parts there. The recommended PS pump specialist inspected the car, dipped his pinky finger in the PS pump fluid, then told me, you have no problem. He said, "go drain the entire PS fluid and put in engine oil".

I bought 1 litre Forte Visco 2000 engine oil (red coloured). Read up on how to change PS oil. Removed the reserved tank, emptied and washed it with petrol. Put a 75cl eva water bottle in the ps return pipe. Ran the engine until ATF stopped flowing. Reinstalled the tank, filled with engine oil, ran the engine for 10 secs. Topped the engine oil again. Ran engine for 20secs. Gauged it.

Viola! Till this moment, no whine, no whatsoever.

Interesting read

USD receiving woto woto

I sold all my USD at 1765, it has proved to be a good decision so far.

May be considering another investment if they stabilise USD for 2 weeks even around 1400

I really don't get what's really happening, yesterday my aunty was given 333k in exchange for $200 that was sent to her via Western Union. That simply means that bank is exchanging @1665. So how come black market seems to be lower than banks now.
Well, still observing the show, let's see what happens in two weeks.

Dear Family landers. I am here to seek your advice on how to rescue my car from my neighbour.
​
I bought a car, direct from abroad, a very clean and sweet ride, and ed in September, 2023 (5months ago). However, due to the high fuel consumption( V6, 3.5l engine) and the ever unstable fuel price today, I decided to put it up for sale to get a smaller engine capacity. A neighbour expressed interest in buying the car and decided to pay in installment which I agreed. I was also searching for a replacement at this time hoping to use the money realized from the sales to get my preferred ride. My preferred ride prices were shockingly high such that even if I doubled the price I gave to my neighbour it will still not be enough to buy the new ride. Prices rise by the hour these days in Nigeria and I have no hand in this crisis. I returned to my neighbour to inform him that I will not be selling the car anymore due to the present crises in prices of goods in the country. I apologized profusely for every inconvenience and transferred his money back to him. He got angry and said that I must submit the car key and documents to him. He even threatened to send his community and area boys to beat me up and extract the above items.

I came back from work to see my car jacked up, surrounded by 2 other vehicles to prevent the car's exit. For the records, there is no written or signed agreement between him and I concerning this sale. I refunded all his money 1 day after he paid his last installment and kept back my car. I have no hand in Nigeria's current problems. I am pushed to use force here but I am thinking that some initial peaceful resolution could be an option.

Judge Judy would have ended this case in less than 5 mins .....I think its sellers remorse at play here.
You shot yourself where you said he had made his last installment,ain't a lawyer but I think by law you have lost that car. Unfortunately,that car doesn't belong to you anymore. Haven't said that,you can plead with your neighbor to either cancel the contract and you refund him or you buy back the car from him at his own price now.

Pls show engine pix and VIN.
Thanks.

Good evening all

Please I plan on getting a 2008 Accord . I notice that when the key is turned to position 2 (without staring the Engine). All dashboard lights comes on except the check Engine Light.

I believe it’s meant to show when the ignition is turned and disappear when the engine is started.

Is it a serious flag pls?

The CEL will definitely flash when you're starting your car, it either goes off or remains on once car is started and steaming.

Sorry mate.
You need to take a strong stand on stopping your addiction, that's your first step. Make that resolution and stay put.
Go back to that your pharmacist friend and ask for drugs to help in addiction treatment, I think they are two or so.
Be ready to engage in withdrawal lifestyles from addictions and you will be fine. Get close to family that love you and can help you fight this addiction then you are good to know.
Your wound will also heal if you adhere to your pharmacist and doctors instructions.
All the best!

Please I see people complaining on this thread sometime ago ing wakanow as travel agency. Those who have used them should please explain if they are good or I should stay away because I intend to book with them tomorrow with either British Airways or Virgin Atlantic because it seems they are the only two with direct flights to the UK and I do not want to be going through the stress of learning how to apply for transit visa. Your prompt response will be highly appreciated. Thanks

BA and VA are on the high side... Why not use Ethiopian airline, just one stopover and you're good to go.
You can book it yourself using their site.
