If it was done properly, what you have in that engine bay is a die hard engine.

Meanwhile.....


False alert people.. cry

Thank you vary much oga. However, the engine bay doesn't look clean enough and that's what scares me cos there are unconnected wires and oil Leakeages here and there. Will get a good mechanic to help me look into the Leakeages before it hits the road. Thank you

Thanks. I guess that means the engine won't give me much of a problem. It's high time I ditched my mechanic for telling me v8 tweaked into v4. Already confirmed from the dealer if truly he changed the engine from a diesel to a petrol engine. I can only hope it lasts and not break down in the middle of a forest

chai shey we never kobalize your mechanic like this. Abeg the man was just looking for stomach and pocket infrastructure grin

Think twice before giving it to your (KAZEEM) of a mechanic,he seems incompetent. I suppose its high time you get a pro b4 they mess things up real good for u. Good luck once again. cool

Lol baba,he came here to ask questions his mechanic couldn't answer,better the right way than his mechanic to dabaru his innocent car for him. KAZEEM of a Mechanic would always get his own customer's grin

O.p just dodge a bullet grin Thanks to u guys,u just saved him a whole lot of wahala.

When you think you have seen it all, however that Engine is not a V8, but my worry is was OP told of the change from Diesel to Petrol? what a waste though as the diesel Engine was more durable and would outrun its petrol compatriot, these Engines which are old diesel can run on cooking Oil.
But the laboratory though grin grin grin reminds me of my Dads old 504 grin grin grin

Hello gurus in the house, I am using a Peugeot 206 but its Air Condition is giving me problems, anytime I refill with gas the AC will just work for a few minutes and then the Gas will just evaporate, they checked if there are leakages, they found some and rectified them however its still doing the same thing, my first mechanic told me its compressor but the second one said we should dismantle the whole car interior in order to see leakages. Pls any Guru with a knowledge or experience of such happenindls should assist.

Oga nurey kindly help out on this one.

I have this Almera Tino toks that I intend giving out on hire purchase on taxify forum in Ibadan.

From what I've been able to gather from those using it, I think the car is reliable and easy to maintain.

But those uses are private, and I've not seen anyone using it for commercial purposes.

So do you know if this car can withstand the stress, if deployed for commercial purposes.

I'm asking because i don't want a vehicle that will be problematic to the driver.

it's an ok vehicle if it was converted well and if fitted with the 1.8L engine, I don't know much about the 2.0L engine.

I have used the saloon version so I can categorically tell you it's reliable all round don't abuse it, engine is a bit advance but all in all have your crankshaft and camshaft sensor extra in glove box Incase, those things can fail prematurely.

Also it's manual transmission and it's 1.8L

Good morning.I use Toyota Camry 2007,I observed that my traficators are no longer working(all 4),I called my repairer to fix it,he said it was the flasher,he changed it,and it was working again.The following day,in the morning I started the car,lol and behold it was not working again even till I got " to and fro " where I went that morning.Later in the afternoon,I started the car again to use,it was working. The following morning,I started the car again it was not working,I had to call my repairer back again,he had to change the flasher again,and it was working.This morning again it did not work while going out,even while returning it did not work.On getting home,with vexation I had to call my repairer to come fix it again,only for him to come,start the car,it started working again.

Intact am getting tired with this ,traficcators problem.I have observed that it doesn't work most often in the morning when I start the car to use,but often in the afternoon,it will work.
Please what could be the cause of this?
Also do you know the price of this " Flasher", new and Belgium?
Cos my repairer says,new one would not work for my car,and he has been using Belgium for my car.

Thanks.

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by jceesquare(m): 9:18am On May 07, 2019
Ogas in the house I have issues with my car A/C.
It's a Nissan Almera 1998 with the Sr20 engine.
I noticed each time I turn on the A/C, the car would find it difficult to rev hard. The RPM is slightly above 800 with A/C on and does not seem low but when you try to rev the engine it responds slowly as if the engine is under immerse load and accelerate as if it's towing something heavy.
I also noticed the A/C works or cools fine when the car is in motion or when you rev it up, but doesn't really work fine when stationary.
The car has manual transmission and runs perfect without A/C.
Pls I need help as my A/C guy does not know what to do again and is confused.

Hello everyone! I am currently doing a Consumer Behavior research for my finals. My topic is consumers' behaviors and the decision making process when considering buying a car in Nigeria, especially through listing sites (Jiji, Chenki, Naijauto, etc) instead of going to physical showrooms. The same with people who want to sell their cars.

Please take some time to answer the following questionnaire for me, thank you so much and I hope we can find some interesting insights about cars buyers/sellers here grin We can also discuss our differences!

For buyers: https://forms.gle/dRkysD47qnM7D56N8

For sellers: https://forms.gle/Hi7F3hW7hcyjyDAK6


Thank you so much for doing my survey grin
