What could be wrong with my car?
I entered bad floods in the morning but there was no sign of an issue. After doing 2 flood-free trips, I bought fuel & parked at the filling station to wait for request. A request came after like 10 mins but car no gree work although it cracks. Mec asked me to put fuel in the injector, car started but went off immediately (did this twice & got same result). Mec said it must be a wiring issue, I've been waiting for rewire for about 30mins after I called him thanks to a erby that gave me his .
Has anyone experienced this before? I need advice biko
NB - car is Nissan Almeria
Cc: Gazzzz, Oluwasenla, chilex, izou

So sorry bro. I guess the bolded was the disaster waiting to happen.

I suspect an hydro lock. Gazzzzz just gave one tip.

I have never experienced an this in years

Thanks...rewire fixing is yet to tell me what the issue is and the cause. He asked me to hold on until he finishes.
The rewire I called then did not show up for 2 hours until I got another that is working on it now. I just told him not to bother

Total shown is the amount your rider pays.
Some may have promo while some will have outstanding but click on fare details to check for more details.
From this trip, the rider had a promo

well in all the job is not easy and I respect u guys that's on renter and pray u buy your on car in little time.
seriously car owners won't understand until they drive and see for themselves, I was among the car owners bashing rental guys earlier until I drove and see 4 myself,
People work their ass off day and night, the waist pain, leg pain, life threatening risk involved at the end struggle to pay up a person relaxing/sitting in his comfort zone and end up saving 15-20k for himself cry..
and the PON PON guy is busy jubilating thinking he has made it in life grin

But since they decided to drive on rental, there's also no point complaining, it's either you drive or return car owner's keys simple

Most riders are price sensitive, they compare between uber , bolt and the multitude of other ehailing apps to see the lowest rate.
This is why it is in drivers best interest to only 2 or 3 ehailing apps, proliferation of ehailing companies can never be to the advantage of drivers.
Most drivers who refused to pay for Bolt shield is because they have uber, remove uber out of the equation, then they would be at the mercy of Bolt and some poorly setup alternative ehailing apps companies.
I hope for the sake of those who are yet to perfect Plan B that uber Nigeria does not pull out.

Tips for when your car goes off inside water.



DO absolutely nothing!!!! Remove all sparkplugs and crank to ensure there's no water inside the engine.


If you do this, there is a 50per chance engine damage will be averted.

Engineer sir,

You forgot to add (Remove soak air filter)

I am a rider and I am price sensitive. I disagree that Nigeria would suffer without Uber though. In fact, I am currently recruiting Uber and Taxify drivers for an international ride-hailing app that has silently entered Nigeria. It has a much more juicy package for both drivers and riders.

Drivers with cars ed in Lagos interested can me via WhatsApp on 08085404500. Please don't just type "Hello".

Introduce yourself like this: "Hello, I am John and I am an Uber driver interested in your new ride-hailing app."

I would respond accordingly in due course Godwilling.

You don't have to be frustrated by one company, diversify and see what works best for you.

Other cities in Nigeria coming soon Godwilling.

Same goes for drivers, drivers won't undestand how car owners borrow, sweat ,sacrifice just to buy a car.. And Nigerian banks are not loan friendly to small business owners.. And the high rate on loans basically kills a business.. Than you have some not all ,crazy driver thinking because you gave him a car to drive, he is now doing the owner a favor, better yet driver drives and damages the car. Dumps it for owner
Seriously if drivers can just walk into a bank and ask for a loan .. Especially the conditions you have to go through.. Only if drivers can experience that ..

But seriously what went wrong? Is uber /taxify trying to enslave us? Ok we agree they reduced fares in order to get more riders, what happened to surge on Mondays and evenings? The strike is inevitable.

Nah, no need to strike, find alternative.
