AmuDimpka: Big man, I understand you perfectly, at least we are both very practical men. Although your 100k odometer analogy is a bit off. Now take a look at both attached pictures (daily drivers); Lexus IS is at 159,510 km (almost at 100k miles on the dot), Merc E320 is at 376,527 km (236k miles or so). Lexus still runs on factory recommended oil, Merc runs on 15w50, thinking of changing to 20w50 if oil shortage intervals increase beyond the current threshold. Irrespective of popular opinion or expert advise - I'm not going to replace or repair/rebuild anything, that engine go work him money complete, but you see that IS? Na only fresh Mobil 1/Castrol we go give am until him cheap engine decide kaput too. **abeg make una pretend say una no see the Lexus TRAC and VSC wahala. As well as my speed sensor issues wer don activate ESP/ABS malfunctions for Benz. As for SRS na normal thing.

As usual, the house will argue and argue and still agree to disagree. If an engine is still putting out optimal or close to factory performance, use the recommended oil - short and simple! If your engine has seen better days and nearing the end of its run cycle, it makes no economic sense whatsoever to use expensive oils for lubrication. 3 Likes |

radautoworks: Nice info regarding the anti-freeze part - I'm not a cheapskate when it comes to vehicle maintenance, but then again, that depends largely on the vehicle's condition. ![]() ![]() 1 Like 1 Share |

nonhuman: Get this, it's pre-mixed. Got this from Gazzuzz some while ago for a Corolla - I believe Radautoworks also have it in stock. There are lots of fakes in the market, mixed with tap water and dye

20dollarblogs - Hope you've finally gotten home. That road is not motorable, if you don't have an aversion to water (I highly doubt you do, assuming you're from the South East). Next time take a drop to Oron from Uyo (30 mins or so), Jump on a speed boat (another 30-35 mins), and you'll find yourself in calabar. That Itu-Odukpani road has taken and will continue to take until it takes a prominent Nigerian before both states and the Federal Government take charge. 1 Like |

ojeysky: There's nothing to diagnose there again, keep small lite change for radiator and coolant tank (very certain you'll change that also) - With 15k-20k, you can have that vehicle towed to her workshop. Even with traffic won't take up to 90 mins. And be prepared to wait at least 2 days - hope you're aware, other miscellaneous expenses could set in (assuming one or two hoses are gone or even the water pump or thermostat). Also keep money for Mobil 1 ![]() |

Fredo268: Hello Fred, First and foremost, I apologise for the inconveniences you've faced. Not making any excuses but you've raised some salient points, I'll try to address. I'm not involved in the running of that business, and left the office briefly because I was informed that ' a friend from online or something like that was making a scene ' and was demanding to see me - didn't know you were still upstairs when i drove in, and the manager was already at the car park - so there was no need to come inside. Besides, that Infiniti won't start immediately, if you turn it off. A CPS issue, which I am yet to fix. Couldn't leave the vehicle again because of that. Managing it for the time being. Secondly, there's no justification for their actions or inactions. But, it's no secret that club managers or supervisors have a monthly target to meet, and the last thing he needs is anyone undermining his authority unnecessarily. You had a verbal agreement, good and fine, but the budget you informed them of initially is different from what you are proposing to spend today. Finally, no offence but clubs sell tables, a birthday on a Friday night will take up precious space - and the profit margins or price markups for your selected drink outlay isn't commensurate with the space that will be occupied, infact some of those drinks aren't sold in the VIP area. I'm glad we've spoken and settled this, happy birthday bro. Next time man up and post with your main moniker or this method of seeking redress won't work. 2 Likes |
