Kelvin30286063:
Look at this man. Lol Catalytic converters reduce emissions but do not reduce fuel consumption. Your mind is playing tricks on you oga! Or maybe it's your car that's playing tricks on you! Catalytic converters use reduction and oxidation (redox) reactions to reduce harmful emissions. ... It helps reduce hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO). The only thing your cat will do is reduce emissions and make your car quieter. Even the little fuel improvement you may notice is due to your O2 sensor warning being off so if after using cat and your O2 sensor warning is still on, you may not notice any improvements. Meanwhile, you may notice bad fuel economy if your catalytic converter is bad, this is due to the fact that your catalytic converter could become clogged over time, filled with debris and rust, and exhaust will become trapped in your car's engine. Thank you o. Absence of the cat is not significant. It's a clogged cat that brings wahala 1 Like |

If I buy a used car for 750k and insure at 3.5 which is 26,250. .. is it yearly I will be paying 26k or once off. If the car is stolen, will I be given 750 Worth of car or Cash? You will be paying the 26k yearly. If car is stolen, you will be given cash. And you can always process claims for accidents, flood, fire, vandalism, etc. 1 Like |

If he gets his car back, he forget about the claim. Besides claims may take long before it is paid. Don't you know insurance processes ? Even if it your personal savings you don't get it like that not to talk of indemnity. He pays I think 10% of the total cost initially and certain amount again later. I can't just vividly remember again. They will query him even for not having tracker can be used against him. Insurance is easy to enter , to get out is not that easy. May God let him see the car back Insurance claim process is pretty easy if you use a reliable and reputable insurance company like leadway or axa mansard. Payment of claims is usually within a week (my experience). |

Insurance is how much? For a typical car... tiny light for instance? Use leadway or axa mansard. It is 3.5% of the value of your car. For the tiny light, you can decide to value it at 1m or 1.5m |

descartes400:
A claim he has not received and has no definitive time line. while this process is on going but due to police effort, his effort and perhaps friend's effort, he gets to find the car. rational sense dictates that he will inform the insurance company. If this scenario happens, are you suggesting that having found the car, he should forfeit the car to the insurance company since the compensative claim is already in process?
Me thinks all efforts geared towards searching for the car either by him or friends while the process to lay claim is on going etc is a welcome effort so long no intent to commit insurance fraud is involved.[b][/b]
It's a very grey area. However, just as you said, so far there is no intent to commit insurance fraud. |

If you buy a car, especially the tokunbo, you will still spend some money to put it in good shape now matter how 'neat'. The car was 2003 model. With the number plate and the picture it is relatively 'new'. With the situation in Nigeria now that a dollar is N550. I think it is better to have his car back if possible than starting all over again no matter the amount paid as claim
So are you saying he should collect claim and still get his car back? Isn't that insurance fraud? |
