I guess this is 2AR engine, make sure the crankshaft is in good condition before replacing the con rods, change the oil filter too. 2 Likes |

Mrford: Sometimes in February my Honda Accord DC overheated, cos Kazeem removed the thermostat and tampered with the engine fan wiring: the rings fried, a connecting rod bent and some bearings damaged. Most Mechs told me to change engine including our own Gazzuz. Buh thank goodness, an Engineer from my workplace fixed it. I bought a premium ring pair and a connecting rod and volla! My Honda is driving better than before, some mech told me it will go bad after 3 months, it's October already and the car is giving me joy. I typed all this cos the guy that fixed it told me the same thing you said "All engines can be fixed" He said he's ringed a countless vehicles that runs good after six years. Instead of spending 200k on engine, I spent 25k only on everything including workmanship. I am a Dangote Transport staff and we've got some exceptional technicians. 40 Likes 4 Shares |

Our dear Gazzuz also told me to change engine and radiator of my 09 accord gave me a bill of N652k. I was depressed. But thanks to my awesome technician he fixed everything for less than N100k and car drives smooth and better. All engines can be fixed. You just need a professional hand. Lavisha: 20 Likes 1 Share |

Passed through a similar flood after I left my mechanics workshop. The 2 roads which was the way out was heavily flooded. After the first outlet almost submerged a Lincoln 4x4, I took the other way in my Volvo. Cars parked on both roads to wait for the flood to reduce. Despite the flood almost reaching my window, I drove slowly out and people from other NB: Volvo is very strong. I come in Peace. 11 Likes
