I don’t care if it’s Nigerian used or to jumbo
Just something that can last

Olist, Jiji, Cheki.

Just search for the car you want. You could actually get for lower than your budget. But a good one, will probably be higher.

Also, ensure the vehicle is inspected before buying, so you wont end up with a lemon.

You can reach out for inspection .

radautoworks:
So many, many lies in this thread and the other. If op had spent the time communicating with us like he did with his "guru", maybe he would have already heard everything that was repackaged and regurgitated to him.

Anyone who's watches all the videos and reviews the invoicing as well as original diagnosis will see that except for the catalytic converter code (which was non-existent when the car first came to our shop) EVERYTHING in the savior thread was mentioned.

WE FIXED EVERYTHING THE OP PROVIDED PARTS FOR AND AT A TOTAL COST OF 200K. The same "abused oil pressure switch" in the link was provided by the OP and his hero .

1) TPMS sensor identified first visit and video- NOT PROVIDED BY OP

2) airbag light also identified at first visit- PUT ON THE BACK BURNER TO FIX 5 (five) DIFFERENT UNDERCARRIAGE LEAKS

3) oxygen sensor identified at first and second visit - NOT PROVIDED BY OP

4) "I will be draining the Engine engine oil to inspect for metal shredding or particles, then replacing all seals relating to the VTEC system."- solenoid leak patched was patched at first visit because SEAL UNAVAILABLE AT THE TIME. NOT PROVIDED BY OP

5) "Had some time to take out the vtec oil pressure solenoid and pressure switch.(looking horrible)"- SWITCH PROVIDED BY OP

6) catalytic converter code Attempted spacer fix is a bypass patch, not a fix . we don't do that.

7) "I'll rather just work with new (Toks) parts free from previous abuse. Will try and get new harnesses for the parts ."- parts provided by op and guru

8 )"Further inspections reveals a disintegration of the catalytic converter. It's a good thing we caught it this early , would have been fatal to the engine"- a clogged catalytic converter will reduce power to an engine but will not destroy an engine

9) "The O2 sensors have been literarily glued to the manifolds and would not unscrew without a little persuasion."- we did not touch those, again because op had bigger problems and did not provide the part

10)"Oil drained, no metal particles found."- as we stated repeatedly and were mocked, OP DOES NOT NEED AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT


11) "I am wondering why no one recommended coolant in this vehicle? Was it your inability to afford it or just forgetfulness."- engine work WAS DONE on this vehicle and coolant WAS put in

12) Faulty 'A' Rocker Arm Actuator - mentioned in all diagnoses but put on back burner for other problems


Op is gleeful to be getting what he wanted from when he first wanted to double-stack coupons- FREE REPAIRS.

I have a simple question for the happy hero. If this car had come to him first, what would have been the bill to fix everything we did plus what he is fixing now? Because when we gave op a bill that would have made us responsible for everything it was called outrageous.

We did a LOT of work on that car (a lot of it free which I now regret) and were clear that there were still items left to be done. Any mechanic can always find something additional to fix particularly on a car with as many problems as this one had. The goal was to make the car road worthy by tackling it's larger problems, which we did as op drove over 300 miles to the East (after a week of driving around town). My other question is why op didn't take the car to the "guru" he name-checked in the title and at the beginning of the thread AND bought parts from during the duration of the repairs? Cleaning up leftover repairs is easy when someone else has already done the heavy lifting that's why. Inside things.

Postscript to the plagiarizing "guru":
You wanted publicity off our name and have been on a campaign to try to hurt us for years. Each attempt more desperate than the last lol.

Even went as far as lying about an ac compressor and when you were busted the thread was cleaned of everything that showed you for what you are. You claimed we lied to you about it being new and you weren't refunded. Instead, you knowingly purchased a remanufactured one AND received a full refund which you used to buy additional goods. (https://www.nairaland.com/5429767/where-rad-auto-works-parts/2#82450620 pages 6,7 and 8 now scrubbed clean) was swept under the rug but a couple of screenshots remain below. I actually have ALL the screenshots of everything that has ever been scrubbed but it is not worth my time.

Falsified car mileage, also scrubbed clean https://www.nairaland.com/5420678/2010-corolla-foreign-used-54000/11#82379760 then replaced with https://www.nairaland.com/5421108/2010-corolla-foreign-used-54000#82510255
It took months for that memory to die and you to skulk out of the shadows. https://www.nairaland.com/5420678/#82297967

Oh, you're still upset that we offered to fix baba40's car for free when you basically told him to go screw himself? Seen.

For two years you have been unable to get us to interact with you since we discovered the low levels you are willing to stoop to. You believe all publicity is good publicity however we disagree. It's cute that you think we are in competition but guy man, we are not. You fix four car brands and pick and choose your repairs. It doesn't matter what you do, our customer base knows what we can do and will continue to grow. Until you grow out of this childish insecurity that requires you to register multiple monikers to say nasty things you can't with your main moniker, and use them to attack anyone you perceive as a threat, you will remain as you are.

AutoElectNG is still standing though quiet.

Amdman man is still standing. Not only standing but thriving after you tried to claim he sold rusty cars https://www.nairaland.com/5421657/another-reason-why-should-tread#82311346

Dru23 still standing and selling his oil

Radautoworks is also still standing. Your even tried to imply i got you gifts in some kind of attempt to cause a rift between my husband and I. Luckily your WhatsApp message told the true story.

For the last time, PLEASE GET A LIFE! I will respond to no one about this silly attention grab on ANY of the threads created for it.

I know a lot of you who have messaged me privately to ignore all this and that this is beneath me will be disappointed but I HATE liars and duplicity. I will ignore going forward.

And this mechanic guy finally shot himself on the foot.... This is so cheap and immature. Well even the devil have supporters so am not surprised sycophants are still earning their daily meal here

Ogbadibo80:


You can reach out to him via a personal message or call him on his phone number, it is common knowledge where he uploaded his invoice with his name and contact.

You are also in the service industry, and in competition with the accused, If you want to truly help, you don't have to advertise it.

Alfred74:


Aboy! Every where de chacharache

Baba40:


Know you want to kill me nah... Hence you searching ferociously for my names on the internet? Epe ti mu e indeed!
You even forget that you have internal enemy? You are the one doing the search oooo... Don Almighty,Don Gazzuzz on Nairaland. Ose baddest.. ��������

Baba40:

Abi ooo.... Some people are even making jest of me here including the scammer Gazzuzz

HeavenlyBang:


Na Legalwealth brother.

Baba40:


When the problem persist, note, the car hasn't even travelled 3000miles yet ooo, he told he gave me 24hrs to return the engine and get a refund.

How? Who does that?

Baba40:
What is the difference between the one that duped with humility and the one that duped with insult?

Gazzuzz only prey on customers ignorance and trust. Samething every road side mechanic does

Baba40:


I am not your competitor but a customer you don't need hire e-hoodlums to defend you...
My customer experience with you is horrible yet you DONT have the technical know how. Behaving like APC government... Instead of you to address your poor service you are still insulting your customer.

Atleast if it's N1 you gained from on the bad products and services you rendered.

Baba40:
You people always think you can do anyhow to anybody let's see where this one you just entered get you

GAZZUZZ:

This was where we started.

Engine purchased

I wrote and invoice and issued it, a deposit was made, mid way client changed his mind and started requesting we review our prices and use used radiator and cheaper coolant.

The client was allowed to buy his own parts after he insisted

Client bought this used radiator and some abro coolant

At this point I was fed up and stopped work. Told the client I was no longer interested in his job and he would be refunded and he can take his car elsewhere.

He pleaded and I declined.


Finally his wife called and after a lengthy talk I agreed to continue his work.

We finished without any issues.

Only complaint he had afterwards was the check engine light on, which was clearly due to a missing catalytic converter.

Other time , was a faulty starter relay which he fixed himself and a bad fuel pump which he also fixed himself.

GAZZUZZ:
Sequel to the thread created by Baba40 I wish to clear the air.

https://www.nairaland.com/6270804/gazzuzz-dubious-insultive-arrogant-being#96294091


1. I entered into a contract to replace the engine, fluids and radiator for Baba40

2. The vehicle was recently purchased by baba40 prior to meeting me and was massively abused.

3. A Foreign used engine was procured and installed with a 3month warranty or 3000km which ever comes first.

4. I did not receive any complaints from Baba40 until after the expirations of his warranty.

5. The procured engine in the market where it was sourced comes with a 1 week warranty and not a money back guarantee. (They will fix and not replace in the event of failure).

6. As a responsible entity we stick our necks out for our clients because we stand by what we sell.
We give long warranties so in the case of failure the client is covered.

7. I was contacted on the 4th month and after over 3,340km that engine installed on baba40's vehicle suffered oil burn.

8. As a responsible entity I offered him a window of full refund for expense made on engine procurement and installation . The window was 24hrs.

9. Baba40 Did not respond to my offer, but rather insulted me further.

10. 3weeks after the offer elapsed he opened the thread above.




I have sold and installed hundreds of engines to nairalanders on this platform. Over 99per of the time it turns out well without issues. There are times it does not. This is possibly one of those cases.

In the past i have fully refunded aggrived clients for all funds expended as written in the invoice (fluids, labour , logistics, and parts) and also installed their old parts back, I can call out 2 nairalanders that have received this gesture this year. Business is not all about money but about having a good name and brand.


Thank you.

Gazzuzz.
