@erex, thanks for your explanation. I appreciate.
How much are dey d gear box for baby boy.
Also, hope their part is cheap and not scarce.
Thanks in anticipation. Good afternoon sir.

Honda parts are very much available mostly in Oyingbo..

Don't know about the price for a 4plug gear
But the V6 gear was about 65-70k when my friend wanted to change his before he sold car off.
Ie: the 4plug gear may just be within that range cos the V6 gear Alps goes for odyssey and co.

Boss..you've said it all.
Before I got my baby boy, I did a Toyota Camry tiny light with a v6 engine,thought it was great aside it high fuel consumption.

But after getting my baby boy for two years now, I don't feel like letting it go, it wasn't new or close to but a Naija used....i was sceptical initially bcoz of all these bolt joint issues and stuff but now I can say that am addicted to the car cuz it serves me to the fullest.
After my monthly service and tightening of d joints, am good and the fuel consumption is very low.
I had wanted to sell the car and buy Peugeot 406 auto but my mechanic adviced me to keep using my car cuz wahala dey for 406 auto, though I don't know how true his statement is.
I will also like to read from guys who are using d Peugeot 406 auto....
All in all Baby boy when serviced as at when due can be enjoyable and trustworthy on the road.

Heard sane thing about 406 auto once they reach a particular mileage... But I can't judge ... Let those who use it give their experiences

@erex, want to ask about Honda Accord.
His it true d car use to have gear box issues. What of d car fuel economy. Baby boy to be precise.
Thanks in anticipation.

It is more of paying attention to details.

Senario 1: Four years on mine... I have a gear switch issue... Mine was more direct... during one of the rainy season when I crossed a high level water... The *D* light started blinking and the gear became sluggish.
Gear was still working but I knew the difference.
I took it to a rewire who tested the 3 switches on the body of the gear till we found one switch with a crack... Changed the switch and works fine till date.

Senario 2: my friend bought a babyboy as well (first car) and after a month he the *D* Light was blinking.
He said the gear works just fine and he did several weekend trips with it to Ibadan, Ekiti and co aside the daily trips he does from Ikorodu to yaba... To an fro work...after a year the gear packed up. He just woke up one morning engaged the gear and the gear refuses changing (Like he was driving L1)
He asked me about it until he mentioned that his *D* Light has been blinking for over a year but it never affected car performance so he felt it was a glitch. He ended up selling the car after several trials and error.

Now besides these two scenarios I have experienced others when I purchased a Naija use babyboy. The gear is something I used to fall prey for..(then I don't even use scanners)

there is the overheating type....: Gear runs smooth on the onset and after driving for about an hour gear starts misbehaving... Have had such experience on two Naija used babyboy and the *D* light so not blink at the point of purchase.

So what I do is when I buy a Naija used... I buy fuel and test drive to satisfaction.

PS: For me once the gear is not a switch issue, I got for a total change of gear. Cant be doing trial and error.


Babyboy has great fuel economy once your engine and exhaust system is right.

Hello My Beloved Friends... My sister just called me now that she need a sienna or Passat wagon. I her asked her budget... She said N400,000. I said it's not possible based on her budget.

Please, dear dealers if she can get it on that budget, kindly contact me. WhatsApp:+2347064748348.

Thank you so much.

Sienna ke... No no..

Passat maybe but I can't guarantee how well it can be issue free. As well which year?

Thank you for your sincere review, sir am currently in a fix to buy this car, the car is cheaper for the naija used to camry 1999 model. My other option which I saw this morning is Volkswagen Passat 2002 model, I don't know if you have idea about the Passat car. Tnx

Which ever you choose to go for, Just ensure the cars is/was well maintained. Don't let the suppose FEAR OF HONDA LEG make u forgo a good Honda car....

For Passat I didn't use it much so I can't contribute meaningfully (just like I mentioned in your Passat post)

PS: I just sold my friend baby boy this evening despite lock down.
Was touched by the determination of the buyer sha.

I independently disagree.

This is the link to the very first baby boy I owned.

https://www.nairaland.com/2998497/registered-1998-babyboy-4-quick#43903124

I knew how much I lobbied to get it cos it was extremely clean... Well used by a soldier though.
I used it for a year....and sold it even higher than I got it after a year... I learnt a lot about using babyboy via the car.

I have bought used and resold quite a lot of Naija used babyboy... From sellers who feel babyboy is worthless to buyers who knows it value.

Dear dealers if you have a babyboy u disike because it does not have resale value ...
Please I'm really interested cos I have just the right market for it.


Below is my current Naija used baby boy acquired 4years ago.
Car is a daily use especially by my wife
Fixes done over the course include
1 total change of ball joint and tutors (done once car was bought)
1 flywheel change
1 gear switch change.

I guess someone will be saying I don't use it...shior ... I stay in Ikorodu.... Our road and messed up and crazy when it rains..

See 2nd picture of part of my wife route to work when it rains..(she will not even drive those days rather take a bike) just to tell you how bad the road network is

Even my wife won't let me sell it cos she claims it's devoid of issue.

It still boils down to the fact that when you buy a Naija used car.... Get a well maintened car

I like it when people support Honda.

My dear,
I'm speaking from experience. I only hope those who are condemning Honda are doing so out of experience too.
Let them confirm they owned the car, drove the car and it pulled rather than judging what they see on the highways of Honda cars that pull... The same highway that other Honda's still ride and pass.

I can see you want to sell yours, what's the major issue with Honda baby boy?

Comment on the right thread.
Besides
1: I'm based in Lagos
2: babyboy up for sales isn't mine... Owner is relocating to his personal building which has very poor road network hence he wants to sell before raining season
3: engine is toks car was backed over a year but still neat has he hardly use it.

Fixes required are minor... Like inner door handle (as seen in pics) central lock system.. no major electrical issue
4. Car runs fine with chilling AC to go with.

Most especially Not selling with plates... Reason for the dip sales

Most Nigerian like abusing cars...
Don't do due servicing with the right oil..
Don't pay attention to details etc hence they say camry


Honda Accord is far sophiticated Jare.

4 years av not changed shocks on babyboy... Let me not count how many changes available don on Camry...

For one Honda has better suspension than Camry..

But like I said OP with your budget ... It better to get an abused Camry Dan an abused Babyboy.

1: Speed..

2: Fuel consumption...

I think you should get a good car.

I am still an advocate for Honda baby boy but I can't say how well u will get a properly maintained baby boy....
With 500 even if u get an abused Camry... U will survive
But if u get an abused babyboy... Based on your weekend travels ... Your pocket might suffer.....

For the first time... I will join they an say.. Go for a Camry...


PS: I have both a 2002 babyboy and 2001 Camry....so I can best judge... (None of them for sale sha)

skiillzautos:


all Honda do have ball joint problem, But babyboy is still one of the Strongest car Honda has ever manufactured.

I tend to disagree...
I am using Honda for 4 years and never had a ball joint problem.
I have changed the ball joint just ones and my road is very bad in Ikorodu.
My wife uses the car daily to and fro work.
Same road I have seen Sequoia, highland, Benz and off cos Honda have their legs pulled out.
However mine has never pulled out.

I term it carelessness to the driver who ever has a leg pull out if not caused by and accident.

Why I think it is most common with Honda is because Honda has a perfect absorber system more perfect than Toyota that you may find it pretty difficult to identify a ball joint noise.

PS: I have driven an EOD which ball joint was at the verge of pulling out. Felt some wobble on the steering that day and decided to do an alignment.
It was in the process of doing the alignment we found out that the ball joint had shifted from the socket. If I had not taken that immediate step to check the alignment, we would have seen one more Honda with leg pull and tagged it a Honda issue.

It all about maintenance
