See ur brother here... Him don change engine.
Wetin be 100k miles? That's child's play. One of my Corolla Odometer has stopped reading and I haven't opened the engine. If u know the figure that Corolla odometer ceases to count again u will understand what I am saying. And d engine is still working with factory iron top cylinder gasket.

That particular type of civic have their intake pass under the car. So if there's any leakage, it will take water if even is small, speaking from experience.

They used to be time Badore, Thomas estate and Shoprite at Sangotedo used to be my daily route. I can’t even remember how those places look like. I’ve missed Badore so bad. Always feel like luck once I eventually get trip to phase 1 from there.

Till today badore na sure banker, just that the roads don spoil well well coupled with floods.

He should get his money when due, I think. Inbetween, he should contact Bolt, to know why they logged him out.

That money is gone ooo, unless he can still access his dashboard.
Only uber will block and kick you out of their platform and still pay you your negative balance.

Greetings Bosses in the house. I recently gave my mechanic money to buy new gear hoses for my matrix after i found out its leaking. Fee days laterone of the hose burst on my way back from a trip and all the gear oil were lost . Had to park the car and look for a mechanic it was then I noticed that one of the hose isn't meant for gear oil.
New hose was bought as well as new gear oil and the gear got back on actio. I drove down and confronted my mech. He apologized it wasn't intentional, then i told me to pary nothing happens to my gear.

Few days later the gear would take few minutes to engage in the morning and drives fine the rest of the day till d nxt morning, sometimes i will have to shift to D2 b4 it will engage.
Called my ,,m ech again to complain and he suggested we wash the bottom plate that its dirty.
We did that yesterday and it took the car much longer time to engage this morning. But it drive normal since today.

Please I need your candid advice/ suggestions.

Neither any part of the engine nor gear has been worked on since I bought the car 2019, expect the plugs

All this kazeem have done more harm than good, I will suggest you do total servicing for the gearbox, buy gear filter and oando dexron 3, change the oil in the morning before you start the car at all and see how it performs afterwards

Blackbishop:


Good day boss, my 2 cents here is that any car that has a high mileage you don't drain out the transmission transmission fluid completely u only drain a certain portion and top it back with the fake we have here..... Also the fluid flushed out when you were driving if am correct? If I was the mech you called I will advice you to let the gear cool down before any work can be done... once you open or top the gear oil when hot boss so pe otilo......

There was a time, like 4years ago I experienced gearbox leaking oil and i was topping it till I get to home and nothing serious happened to the gearbox.


I think you can actually top it but you can't drain it totally when it's hot...

Planning of purchasing a Nigerian used Honda Civic 06 manual gear, please is this advisable anyone here using it for bolt, what's your experience

It's good but you may want to consider 03-05 civic for obvious reason; cheaper maintenance.

Do you mean 06 has higher cost of maintenance than 03-05?

He should log back in na. Provided he has the email he used in registering the Bolt Account and he is d owner of the account.
Even if he can't log in again he will get his money on Monday except he has been blocked.

I can bet it. That account has been blocked by Bolt.

Pay u negative balance ke.
If Uber or Bolt blocks u permanent blocking u ain't getting your positive balance. U have been blocked and no longer active so ur account can't receive any money from them.

It was a lone accident, later hit by another vehicle from behind. No insurance.

That's how they do, once they send you message from that their US link just forget it because the ones here can't do anything about it.

Yesterday was good and bad..I have God to thank for it..I collected one of my Corolla from my driver on Friday night for inspection and I ask him to pick it up by 11am on Saturday...I wanted to go to island to quickly check something in d office so as part of the inspection I'll be driving the car, that in my own way is d best method of inspection..He told me there is no fuel so I promise to buy 5k fuel..left home around 6am with a rider going to IKOYI and by 6:15 I was around town-planning connecting Gbagada express to link Northwest filling station, I notice if I applied brake, I find it difficult to move freely again and I was contemplating if d car would get to island or I should just return home... Immediately a car drove to my left side, called my attention and shouted fire, fire..mehn my heart cut, quickly park by d side, very close to the northwest station and I notice my front right tire was on 🔥...rush to the boot, brought out fire extinguisher and that stuff had nothing in it..saw two ragolis water that I quickly pour on it, raise alarm and guys were flying in from different corner with fire extinguisher, agberos brought water and luckily we were able to stop it...I was able to park it in a safe place..Thanks to those agberos...
The way the rider, a lady jumped out to the express, almost knocked down was another story..
The good news is, she booked another ride, I told her I'll followed her as I need to get to d island myself, the new ride came and when I entered the driver shouted my name, we did Nysc together in kebbi about 16 years ago...lost his contact..a very good old friend, we slept on d same bed for 3 weeks..we chatted all tru..He dropped the rider, took me to the office, got his mech to pick the car and fixing commence immediately....caliper was d culprit!!My driver claim the car was ok at d point of dropping it on Friday! Car dey spoil overnight!!

Oh no! So sorry for the traumatic experience you may have gone through.
I pray you recover fully. How's your health?

Sir the truth is cars can develop fault at any time, there is nothing to prove anything was wrong before you drove the car.
Thank God it didn't pass like that, sorry for the stress.
Meanwhile I like this your method of inspection.

Thank God for huge mercies because you almost lost that car

No way am driving a car I just picked up at that time of day and for that distance, I've had a number of terrible experiences....I can't forget the day my newly-replaced gearbox died on me around 2.a.m at Iyana Isolo....

Omo! 2am! How you come manage , did you return the gearbox?

I returned it and got another one installed. It came with two weeks' warranty...that was fifteen years ago though, I don't know how they handle such technicalities in Ladipo these days
