Since your mechanic is confused as well, I advise you take to google and youtube, you might find the solution there. After all, many established mechanics on this forum do consult google and youtube sometimes.



Ok sir

Luxurydriver na him shot himself for foot na... That guy used a 4matic V6 bro... That brand of benz no be here oh I can't try it unless I'm in Dubai.

Maintenance for the C-class is relative cheaper to maintain than the Corolla trust me just that the Benz has plenty of parts.

Take for instance, if you want to carry out a change of breakpad if care is not taken you might end up buying both breakpad and the breakpad sensor but a Toyota you are buying just breakpad.


U made a statement and in the very next sentence u contradict your previous statement.
I will only consider using a Benz if minimum fare is 1k atleast and Magodo to Lekki is 10k without surge.

Guys, avoid Enyo fuel station at Ikate. I can tell you for free that the Conoiol opposite is better. Been suspecting them until this afternoon.


BTW, abeg mech in the house what is the local name for Evap canister? Need to change mine.

I didn't contradict myself in any way.

Ignorance is costing us a lot in this racket.

Mind you I've used the most common cars for this job from the Honda's to the corolla's to the biggy's... Its going to 3months now I've not both a single hardware part and car still sound tok. Unlike the Civic that we had to visit the mechanic workshop every 2 -3 weeks even after the top notch maintenance and repairs after purchase... Same thing with the Corolla and biggy.

The only part I've bought and had gone bad within 2 weeks is the fog light bulb. The bulb on one side broke so I replaced it and after I enter water the thing blow up but the other side follow come is still working till now.

Bro forget that O2 sensor thing. Nothing do am. These guys just use it to chop money. Imagine buying sensor for 5k and this guy brought the same as before

But the engine check light will just be on na and I don't like seeing indicator lights on my dashboard at all.

The truth is what we get from most dealers in Nigeria as spare parts are fake-China... Tue worse is most of them are brand new China made sold to us as tokunbo or already bad tokunbo parts so once you fix it and used after a week it goes bad again.

Just imagine a bulb I bought blow off barely after 1 week but the follow come on the other side is still working.

Bolt is just too cheap for my liking! In a bid to win the competition and get all Nigerians patronise them massively to the detriment of hard working drivers, they make executive trips too cheap and in the long run, it will affect them. Uber will never charge this low!

Anyways, just report to bolt. It's not as if they will do anything!

They give bonuses to riders and at the end, they use abracadabra to give you back. Riders refuse to pay, you complain to bolt, they tell you they will compensate. Wey the money? It has reflected in your App! Wayo people! Why not transfer it to my acct direct. At times when I end trip and see the amount, I get so discouraged! Na like this we go take hit the 1million ba?

I'm trying to activate my Uber. Bolt na rubbish!

I'm not ready to argue anything with anybody.

Got a trip this night at mega plaza going to eko hotel, boom I arrived on 1.3× surge. The guy came out and told me to turn around that he's got something to pick, I turned and parked. The rider brought a big box, told me he has another 1 and a box. That 1 box don cover my whole trunk.... matrix way. I was considerate and folded my back seat to accommodate his �. On bringing the last box, the carton got torn and decided to go get another 1, I decided to offload the stuff in the torn carton into the trunk and transload to the new carton he went to bring. When he got back, the guy begin para say the ribbon � on the stuffs are loose and its my fault, initially I thought it was a joke until the guy started yelling.... na so I pick oo.... he went as far as telling his colleagues and those girls sef begin talk anyhow... boom I got angry and told the guy to get the stuff off my car that I was gonna cancel the trip....
Me: bros I'm not interested in the service no more
Rider: why?
Me: I can't have you yell at me just anyhow
Rider: you can't cancel oo, I'm already late
Me: that's none of my business
Rider: you can't cancel nor take my stuff off the car
Me: if I no cancel the trip make I die. I cancelled immediately and dragged the boxes off the car.
Na so the guy begin shout why I would cancel. The security was even like; even driver sef follow us work oo...
Rider: you can't go oo...
Me: na your fada buy car for me? Hold me down na... na so I zoom off.

Got to kofo abayomi, another trip came in to lekki 1. I called her and told her I was at the location the GPS picked, she said she was on the other side.. asked if she'd cross over or I turn around and she said I should turn. Going to turn she started shouting... me wey dey para b4, told her I was gonna cancel the trip if she wouldn't respect herself. She kept quiet immediately. Getting to lekki 1, she apologised for her actions, I told her I was owe her a greater apology and the reason being that the previous guy got on my nerves And we settled.

I suspected. But the app updated when the rider change destination. It was on throughout the waiting period till I took him back. Or are they thinking we didn't move out? Even that, the total time up there should be more than what they offered. Funny enough, they have taken their commission.

We were saying it the other day, pearl1910 was arguing that bolt now accurately calculates price.

The one I dread the most is return trips. 90% of the time, bolt miscalculates the price and when you contact them, they start asking you foolish questions. Where did you pick the rider, where did you turn e.t.c knowing fully well that some PU points are not well defined in terms of addresses.

You wonder why they can't just retrieve the information from their system.

Anyway, that was in the past. Once I hear you will take me back. Alaye, I go end this one first. If you no carry your phone commot, I'll book myself for you from my rider app. Shikena

It's the season. I also turned one down yesterday.

Two ladies with two bags of rice and two cartons of indomie that I believe was given to them by their employers. I'm sure the both of them would have still stayed at the back effecting more damage to my already weak rear shocks.

I zoomed off after I confirmed they actually wanted me to carry the two bags of rice

[quote author=ratracerebel post=107977736]Dont keep watching and doubting, you can still earn more than 10pi for the few weeks of FREE mining.

Moreover, for those calling pi a scam...or taking it as a waste of time, you likely don't know much about investment or potentials of cryptocurrency.

If 10 days of mining Pi can buy you IPhone 11 pro max, is that value a child's play?

Until you are left behind? Even when 95% of the factors and terrain that could have made Bitcoin even more valuable are available to Pi network token? Do you think pi will bill launched at the 0.1$ Bitcoin was launched and not higher?

Though it's the potentials and purpose(problem a token is solving)
that matter. Using those metrics, it's an understatement to say pi has a better and clearer purpose. What value had the founders of Bitcoin created before succeeding with Bitcoin? Meaning: low fans and followers which a project needs at launch
to attract more value was little to non for Bitcoin.

Ethereum is another popular and valuable token. But do you also want to compare it with Pi? If so,� It becomes clear that you have not done any substantial research on Pi network token(PI)

Painful aspect of this matter is: If you dont mine at prelaunch, PI network will take after Bitcoin, in only this aspect and NOT award you any reasonable number(if any at all) of PI after launching and listing on exchanges. Just because there is no excuse for ignorance.

Go to my signature and do the needful NOW

Essence of this thread is for us to learn. If you keep allowing riders to change destinations, you will keep cheating yourself. And you can keep it to yourself too. Peace.

You folded your seat for a rider on 1.3x. ?
You helped rider pack stuffs ?
You are a very good man, better than ikejamanism.

That guy will stay there for hours unless ants on rentals will help him out.
No wonder riders abuse me that is it not same Uber like you that brought me.

Once I see load I just swap arrive and come down to weigh and size it if it’s too heavy or dirty, I will just say I’m sorry sir/ma. I can’t go.
Whyyyyy?

better than expected. Factory leather, electric steering, 5 gears, steering controls. 16 inch tyres. Keyless entry, push to start. Better ground clearance even with full capacity. Faster. The parts are a little more expensive than the older one which is expected. Offline trips requests have increased.

So far so good.
