I do not even have quarter a million not to talk of half..

That's why I'm so angry rn with the guy.

I hope the fixing is in my power dou. Thank you.

That's the best advice I can give. But look for a technician for second opinion. But those Kia engines eennnhhh, I reserve my judgement.

Good morning all, i just bought a Hyundai Sonata 2010 with a very bad engine with the help of a mischievous mechanic i thought i could trust. I've tried to return the car but to no avail. Now it seems the only option i have now is to fix the car.

The engine smokes from inside the bonnet and also leaks oil and water together (all dese we didn't see when we checked the car)

Can anyone recommend a sound Hyundai engineer or tell me the best advice on what to do. Thank you

Don't fix the engine, get a replacement engine. Only that I was told the engine is a million plus sha.

After fixing get rid of the vehicle grin

yea but the hole is not upto 4ft

You wan use ft kill person, focus on meter. Carry tape rule and measure the glass and your car, see if the measurement is close.

Worse case put the glass on the car roof and tie it down with rope, pad the roof and glass with cloth or soft foam but avoid VIO and FRSC route cause they are thieves in uniform.

Sir empron

Sir nurey
Sir chillex


I am having an issue with my charging system. My battery does go beyond 12.70 when car is on, thus I think the alternator is not charging the battery but when I put on Acc and head light , it begins to charge . The multimeter reads 13-14 but when I off the loads, it reduces to 12.6. Sometimes the car just don’t start again. What can be the issue pls. Rewire tested alternator to be okay and battery isn’t up to 1 year. Thanks

Let the rewire test the alternator, it may have partial contact or not too good again

Which brand uses the pink colour?

The orange coloured bottle with green color coolant has been in existence since ages. They made improvement by bringing out coolant HTX or something like that.

Buy the pink type one with white plastic container cause of the type of vehicle you drive.

Do you recommend total coolant for honda crv 2010?

Or what other cheaper coolant do you recommend?

Total coolant is okay, if you can afford the pink color better than the green color

If its accord 1998 to 2007 don't disturb yourself, buy tokunbo gear, you have slacked on maintenance and damaged the transmission

I have this mirror somewhere and i was told to come and carry it because the person on whose care it was is no longer there. The mirror is about 3.5by5.5 feets.

Can Honda Accord carry it? And how? I don’t want go there to carry it and find out it won’t enter. There is no way i can drop it there again.

If your rear seats can recline, it will fit in. Just insert the mirror through the boot while the seats are reclined.

Hello boss.

I'm about this buy a car. Noticed a few things.

1. The steering isnt smooth enough. Has a stiff turn. I won't enjoy driving it this way atall. I'm used to light steering and easy turning of the wheel.

2. The AC really pulls at the engine especially when moving from a stop.

This is a Honda Accord 2009.

I understand I'm buying a Nigerian used car and it won't be nearly 100% perfect. But are this things fixable and not cause regret if I proceed further to purchase the car.

Also noticed the vehicle paper has expired way back in 2016 (same time the custom duty was done). According to the dealer, the person has been using the car in the core north (where all this uniform people don't trouble them) so didn't see need to renew the vehicle papers. What do you think ?

Appreciate your thought on this too

1. The steering assembly is faulty you will need to inspect find the culprit and fix

2. The compressor in the vehicle may be the manual type

3. If nah lagos plate you will pay for those years you didn't renew so put in mind to get a new plate in ur name.

Above all your mechanic should tell you cost to fix all the problems you see and advice you accordingly on a fair price to pay for the vehicle

my mechanic cut my abs cable my mistake. My abs light came on. After I bought Chinese abs replacement the abs light when off. But right now the brake pedal vibrate one kind at times when you step on it. I have bleed the brake several time, even replace hydraulic fluid, yesterday i did another complete flash with a more expensive colored hydraulic fluid still didn’t work.could this be the abs?

Vibration and force feedback from pedal when brake is applied means you need new brake rotors.

Hello house please I don’t know what’s wrong with my car 06 Honda civic hybrid, I was driving and I noticed the steering became quite stiff and eventually the dashboard lights started getting dim before the car finally stopped, i had to jumpstart it to be able to drive it home, while driving home I had to maintain constant speed b/c anytime I slow down the car start doing as if it wants to shut down again. My mechanic has been on it for two days now, he said he still doesn’t know what’s wrong? Anyone with experience with these kind of things?

Avoid the 2012 sonata the engine was designed by devil

Buy a 2010 plus clean Accord its every man's dream ride.

.

The major problem with the camry is it can be stolen whole. As in you will park and within 10mins or less it would be driven away whole because it doesn't have a smart key. It is the No 1 thief magnet followed by uber corolla.
Then suspension wahala in bad roads, toyota is master of that as most part you will see are tokunbo in its last leg or low quality new parts from china.

The accord is good but requires more maintenance and care than the camry, you should change transmission fluid every 2years atmost Forsythe accord and yes the transmission is not as solid as the camry but the 05/06/07 accord transmission is better than that of the 03 and 04. The 4cylinder in the accord is one of the strongest engine you can have in a car and the parts are cheap. It is also bullet proof like mad. For me just focus on the shaft of the accord, nah that one can fall your hand but my 6years of owning a 06 accord I never had shaft issues. Other issues are minor
