Ogbadibo80:


What do you mean by this?



Very detailed response.

Crocif are you accusing them falsely?

Crocif:


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.

Ogbadibo80:


Radautoworks is this correct?

radautoworks:
nope

searchng4love:

be very careful .....know when to shut up ....especially when you are not part of the transaction. I recall this is not the first time such underhand dealings is happening in your little outfit ........

Kewtt:


I can conclude that radautoworks is actually less than a packaged kazzim... if the local guy could do this with minimal fuss...no long parts list..no diagnostic machine...no access to Acura's TSBs...

DMechy:



You started out with doing a great PR for your organization, you have successfully done that. It has metamorphosed into a brand. There will be challenges, but with commitment, commitment to the customer, to value for your workforce, and to your brand, you will summount.

At this stage, i think you've done a good job in promoting your brand on this forum in a very short while, nobody has been able to pull that, and thats credit to you. Nairalanders are hard to please, and the fact you had more people gunning for you without any prior antecedents, tells more about the goodwill your business has received here.


At this stage, i think you should step back and employ a professional that will handle you PR, there is a reason it is a job spec, not for Directors.

You should not also build your brand around glen, when Glen is not there, will the workshop close. You should have all your techs as stars, with the plans of having at least one franchise in every state in Nigeria.


Lastly, you are not in competition with anyone, maybe others are, you shouldn't. What you've built is in a class of its own.


Lastly, theres nothing wrong in apologising, Even when you think you are right for the sake of peace. Thats going above and beyond. In this case, you were in the wrong, nobody takes all blames, i sure know op has his faults, having been in the service business for years, i know what it is like dealing with customers.


My rule, when i dont know or not sure of what to say, or when situations are tense. I keep mum.

Silence is golden.

It is what it is, all business transactions do not go the way we envisage. We win some, we lose some.

Crocif:
Thank God for journey mercies.

I got to my destination in Lagos at about 2:39 pm after leaving the East around 6:45 am.

The repairs done in the East passed with flying colours. The replacement rear differential gave me no cause for alarm in the end.

I made two stops in Benin and Ore to check for any sign of leaks. Thankfully there was none. To think that I had a 'lowly technician in the East' to thank for this. God bless him.

First pic: Stop in Benin

Second Pic: Stop at Ore.

DUNKA:
Mazi well done and thank God for journey mercies. Just goes to show that even a kazeem if properly guided can get the job done ✔. Lessons learnt

Crocif:


Thanks brah.

A lot learned.

I already started making out time to do some research of my own to close the knowledge gap.

Grupo:


If you could drive the car to and from the east, then I'd say that the work done on the engine by rad is not as bad as you have been painting it.

I think you had an agenda from the get go before even going to their workshop.

DUNKA:
this your comment is most disgusting. Soon you will say it was Gazzuzz that sent him abi? Abeg carry your car there for repairs and if you are treated the way crocif was treated we shall see if you would be ass licking here

Crocif:


Lol.

What would the agenda be?

Ordinarily I would choose to ignore but I take it you are unaware of how everything began.

For your information, I took the vehicle to the East and back before taking it to radautoworks.

There is no time I mentioned that the vehicle was not capable of going that far.

It is best to ask questions when you are unaware.

Kewtt:

Bro .. I need your connect ... for this car at 400k... I don't mind paying 500k

radautoworks:
PS: I am aware of a concerted effort by some NLers to use this as an opportunity for self-promotion and to take a swipe at our reputation. It doesn't take a budget Gottlieb Daimler to see what's going to happen so :
1) the car is going to go to the leader's shop who will show up in his hero costume
2) based on information of what we have already done, he will install a new differential and Updated tokunbo ECU
3) he will subtly prod the op into purchasing a tokunbo engine to avoid any parts issues
4) he will find someone to use an alternate moniker and post updates of the fix for that MDX

Of course I could be wrong and none of this will happen. Your move fellas

Crocif:




Brah,

The vehicle is not for sale. That's the reason why we chose to repair. Granted, we have some way to go before we get it to our desired standard but it is a project we have decided to embark on.

Kewtt:

Connect for a similar vehicle will be appreciated

adanny01:


I have nothing against you, just for the record. I have no stake in yours or anyone's business in this line of business.

Having said that, points 1-4 will never surprise me because you had the chance TWICE

You treated this thread with kid gloves, pointing fingers at this point is still saving face. Anyone who fixes Crocif's problems at this point is a hero, you allowed that to happen.

Please say less and seek PR and TECH assistance. You can't make this go away on your own.

GAZZUZZ:
A lot of back and forth finally you all have my attention.



Crocif i will take on the following repairs on your car for free .

Oil pressure warnings

And Your current codes

P0430, P1717, P2251, P2647.

Topic was posted on cartalk for that reason i will share the repair info with step by step procedures used in solving these issues.

In the meantime my next few post will focus on the theoretical aspects of the repair process before i finally dive into the dirty work.
