Don't twist the narrative and don't lie to make yourself look good. You were the first person i contacted before i even put up the Tv for sale which you know . from the beginning i have always insisted on 450k which you know. I begged you to add the 50k but you refused. i reluctantly accepted the 400k. which you were blazingly fast to pay even without seeing or inspecting the Tv. Oya come carry your TV, but it was not enough for you rather you said i should deliver to you whenever i come mainland, that was your suggestion oga i did not promise, i said i will come to the mainland before Christmas, today is 22nd. Meanwhile i went ahead to do everything you asked including marking Tv as sold to you here and took down the ad everywhere else i advertised it. I did not make any profit. Tv is worth over 700k. i sold at a loss even at 450k.
If na the 50k or 100k you suppose make dey pepper you, oga kpele i got a better offer. There will be even better deals tomorrow. Case of theft. You sold another man's property without his consent.

Car Talk / Re: From Gazzuzz To Radautoworks And Back Again…my Story. by Ogbadibo80: 8:37pm On Apr 19, 2021 |
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 ![undecided](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/undecided.png)
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 problem.
13) EDIT: THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS LIE OF ALL:" I always wondered why previous technician was unable to solve the oil pressure light issue, well there you have it, oil was unable to build up pressure because the valve which is suppose to control the vtec lifters was not there at all" - that entire assembly was changed with part provided by customer AND a test unit from another car so unless all three were "missing the vtec lifters", some tall tales going on here. The more likely scenario is an upgraded ECU with the update was procured and some other excuse fabricated as a "novel" fix. Which is more likely? Three assemblies all missing a lifter including one of our test units which worked just fine in another vehicle) or the alternate scenario? Given previous history below... Inside things lol
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.

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.

To your first question: I mean Glen purchased all that was required to fix the leaky rear axle and I paid him for the items he bought. Seeing that the thread is becoming heated I am not inclined to show the evidence unless radautoworks specifically ask me to show it. The information may be personal to Glen.
To your second question: Since I began this thread I have not said what did not happen. The direct answer is NO I did not accuse him falsely. Glen knows. Radautoworks is this correct? |

Crocif:
The areas in red I won't read because you forced me to give the video evidence of the smoke now you want to explain it away.
The other areas I struck out are demonstrably false. Everything about the differential was provided by Glen not me and I paid him extra for it. The evidence can be provided.
You are surprised I took the vehicle on a long journey? Amazing. The point of doing that much work was to travel with it and YOU told everyone that the vehicle was roadworthy. I guess I was wrong to trust your professional opinion. I apologise for this.
The advert on your website:
What do you mean by this? radautoworks: THEN posted a video and photos claiming we damaged his rear differential. All we did was replace the leaking seal on the rear differential which op provided . If we had damaged the rear differential it would have taken less than a couple of miles to notice. The car certainly would not have driven for one week and successfully made a trip of over 300 miles. Same with the massive engine smoke which only happened after a trip to the East. It appears from the video that the valve seals supplied by op are again leaking hence the source of smoke which clears up after startup.
As much as we sympathize, we cannot be held liable for third party parts. We did not damage the rear differential .
Very detailed response. Crocif are you accusing them falsely? 7 Likes |
Autos / Re: Why Your Car's Catalytic Converter Is Very Valuable by Ogbadibo80: 6:57am On Mar 17, 2021 |
HottieCoach: A catalytic converter is a device incorporated in the exhaust system of a motor vehicle, containing a catalyst for converting pollutant gases into less harmful ones.
This device had been available in vehicles since the 1970's
The catalyst's job is to speed up the removal of pollution. The catalyst is made from platinum or a similar, platinum-like metal such as palladium or rhodium. A catalytic converter is a large metal box, bolted to the underside of your car, that has two pipes coming out of it.
The catalytic converter is very valuable because of the precious metals that are included in the converter, such as platinum, or platinum-like material such as palladium or rhodium. So, the more expensive the material, the more expensive it is to replace.
Due to the fall of the naira and a rise in the cost of precious metals like platinum and palladium, the contents of the catalytic converter is highly sort after. The parts have become an unusual windfall for thieves, who can make hundreds of naira from selling them to auto parts suppliers or scrapyards. Catalytic converters can be melted and the highly valuable metals, like palladium and rhodium, extracted.
At present a typical 2003-2018 Toyota Corolla catalytic converter (its content) can fetch between ₦100,000 -150,000.
How to prevent catalytic converter theft.
1 Do not leave your vehicle unattended with your roadside technician.
2. If you do, tell him bluntly that you have your catalytic converter intact and it should not go missing .
3. If for any reason you have catalytic converter failure and it has to be unblocked , collect all the contents, tie it up in a bag and contact me I'll show you where to sell it for good money ![cheesy](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/cheesy.png)

Wow
Where is the energy from past posts?Pages where customer's complaints were dissected,analysed and dismissed by fiery supporters?Is the favourite car seller on his own now?So soon?
Where people have offered to buy the said cars off complainants.Where mechanics have come out to give detailed explanations of why oil will suddenly disappear and how it will have been impossible for the said tokunbo car to have the engine knock due to it being a bad buy because ofcourse,buyer might never have owned a car before and therefore will not know how to even use the dipstick?
Energy please.....energy
Energy where it was stated that it is impossible to buy a tokunbo car and not spend some money on it,therefore we are supposed to shout down buyer for complaining that he spent ordinary 240k for AC as if he is the only one that have spent money....energy
Fact is,nobody seems to have done the sort of job amdman is doing on this forum albeit with open handedness,finesse,calm,honesty and whatever adjective there is
He has set the bar so far high that it might be very impossible for other car dealers to meet up.He is the messiah,who has made it possible for people to have clean cars that probably would have been pieces of junk if sourced locally.His passion is not in doubt,and ofcourse he can only get better. But while we collectively praise him to high heavens,let's collectively console those that have got bad deals,while imploring importer to own up to his mistakes too.We have all returned to our shell,waiting to see "closed deals" so we can add likes and also comment "I told you so"....We are not helping our guy
Some of us cannot wrap our heads around AC and engine complaints that had video of body as response...It is not our business per se,but then,haba??the sequel of reminding buyer that anything could have happened to a car between Lagos and the deep ravines of the south south,despite you providing the driver is a slap on the collective intelligence of we your ardent followers.How a car got to owner from Lagos and there was little or no oil at the point of receipt is a huge low.After waiting five months?
If we cannot offer landing support that includes container offloading mishaps,let's start doing it now to forestall the talk of multiple colours on different sides of newly imported tokunbo cars
it's a blip.It will only leave a mark and not a dent on the image of amdman.But we shouldn't just sweep it under the carpet.

Details are loaded in this thread. https://www.nairaland.com/6271440/re-gazzuzz-dubious-insultive-arrogant
This was an engine that was smoking, rattling , and burning oil excessively.
His engine was replaced and he had no complaints for several months.
Sadly his true nature was revealed to me tonight when I went through his Facebook profile. He placed his old engine up for sale on the 23rd of July (next day) with the header, runs pretty well. What is saddening is that this guy didn't just try to sell a defective engine to strangers on a public platform, but to friends and family .

Ayoko Tosin aka Baba40, I have restrained my self from insulting you directly, but now I have your time.
You are an idiot, not just an idiot, an uneducated idiot , not just an uneducated idiot, a dubious uneducated idiot.
You tried to renegotiate our terms of agreement even before this engine was installed , you tried to make me run at a loss even before this engine was installed, I got fed up with your bullshit and told you to take your job elsewhere , you begged and begged and even involved your wife in the begging and I decided to continue this job (big mistake) I would have left you to continue on your path to find those who will defraud you with humility.
You had an invoice which gave you clear 3month to complain you kept quiet. You complained and even without me verifying your claim I told you to come back for a refund and I will take my engine .
You kept quiet for 2 whole weeks then came online to start ranting. I guess one clown told you that if you drag him on the internet he will be forced to do as you wish. Nehi! Your warranties expired when your vehicle was worked on by a third party which is clearly stated in that invoice, any other thing you are looking for you will not get from me. You can continue to make noise and open threads, it will NOT move me, I have met worse characters online like your father legalwealth.
You have no case, I have dis-customered you (pun intended) search for another mechanic to solve your problems if any as you were ranting on the 17th of Nov that your vehicle runs fine on ₦5,500 5w30 oil.
Note. No matter how many times you open threads or make posts it will not change anything, I will not replace your engine, neither will I give you a refund. You will not eat your cake, have it and insult the Baker Nehi!
Learn to read it will help you in future transactions, also learn to how to approach people without insults .
