kelvinzino: Far better. Certain elements in the design are responsible. CVT + direct fuel injection + ECON mode... EoD has none of these. 3 Likes |

Piyke: I was at Kofar Ruwa, Kano to get one of my front car speaker, i was sitting waiting for the guy to return. All of a sudden, there was a big bang! It definitely was not a gun shot, i thought what could possibly make such a loud bang in a mechanic garage. I saw people peeping and talking about the incident that happen 5m from me. I walked up to what seem to be ground zero. It was a Canada used (my guess due to rust) 2010 Toyota Rav 4 that had its right curtain airbag deploy while an electrician was doing some repairs. Already people were suggesting all sort of cover up. These people have no intention to fix the deployment but were doing everything to hide it from the client who wasn't there. To some dealers, deployed airbag means more profit from an unsuspecting buyer. 7 Likes |

ugo4u: With the latest dollar jangolova, I don't even know. Dollar was 470 when I bought, just checked and its 532 for today. I guess you can check jiji for rough estimates and possibly check out car stands near you. Shipping depends. RoRo should be about $1000 - $1500. Those that ship regularly can update. 2 Likes |

[quote author=defhenry post=105774411][/quote] It's funny you took this pic! I took one earlier today without even seeing yours. My trip A came with almost 4k miles from the previous owner, and I decided to wipe it this week. I felt the 4k miles was affecting my average mpg. 100miles in, I'm getting 32mpg. ECON when I'm cruising or in traffic. No ECON when I need to accelerate or just need the extra oomph. 4 Likes

This has to be the most enlightening thread on AIRBAG repairs. Piyke, please I have AIRBAG lights showing on my dashboard cluster in my Honda Civic 09. It was accidented too upon purchase as tokunbo and the light has been there since I got it. Please I need your inputs on how I can restore the airbags to factory settings. Thanks Piyke: |
Re: I Got An Accidented 2017 Accord by Piyke: 10:35pm On Sep 30, 2021 |
Coketols:Thanks. First thing is to scan the car with a scanner that has SRS access. This will detail the repairs to be done. 1 Like |

Piyke:Thanks, boss for your contribution. Are there any pointers that may consider when doing physical inspections? I know about VIN/Carfax check, but now that they've started altering VINs, how do you check for those things? |
Re: I Got An Accidented 2017 Accord by Piyke: 1:22pm On Jan 03, 2022 |
karferguso: You're welcome. You just have to have an eye for detail and know the OEM stamp like the back of your palm. With this, you'll be able to tell a fake stamp. Also, a scanner will identify the true VIN from the ECU... |
Re: I Got An Accidented 2017 Accord by kingreign(m): 1:23pm On Jan 03, 2022 |
