Hello NLanders. Pls someone should kindly educate me on what to do to properly effect a change of ownership. I'm about to buy a naija used vehicle and I want to be sure I know the details of what is to be done. What documents must I ask for? Do I need to bring a lawyer into the transaction? Thanks for your kind help. |

If you bought a car with the mileage rolled back as is usual with our car dealers, How can you restore the original mileage? |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by omolomolarinero: 1:49pm On Apr 26, 2019 |
Hello everyone, I'm in a fix right now. I purchased a Nissan truck from a family friend who imports vehicles from Belgium. He sent me pictures of the truck and we agreed a price. When it landed in Nigeria one of his boys went to pick it up and was brought down to my house. After few days I brought my mechanic to look it up cos I realized oil was leaking beneath. To our surprise, we realized the truck came with a diesel engine and was changed to a petrol engine in Nigeria. As if that isn't enough, we realized the engine put in is a v8 engine and was tweaked to use 4 plugs. The vehicle drives fine but I'm scared it might develop a major fault in future. I don't have a major problem with the engine change to a petrol engine, I need gurus in the house to explain to me how reliable a v8 engine tweaked to use 4 plugs can be

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by dannybrasky(m): 3:14pm On Apr 26, 2019 |
omolomolarinero,b4 the experts starts pouring in great ideas,if i may ask,were you aware of the car being diesel and v8 engine before you paid for it? If yes,did u accent to its changing from diesel to petrol as well as the tweaking from v8 to 4plugs ?? omolomolarinero: |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by omolomolarinero: 3:20pm On Apr 26, 2019 |
dannybrasky: Well, he only sent the pictures to me on whatsapp and I like it's body built cos it's meant to be used to for farm errands. It's not the first time he's getting me a vehicle,what I do is to see pictures and send him money. Most times the vehicles get to Nigeria in two months. On this particular occasion, I saw the pictures, he said its a v4 engine and I paid for it January |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by 4llerbuntu(m): 3:35pm On Apr 26, 2019 |
thebigkendo: Because it serves no purpose to have the ridiculous rolled back numbers. 14 yr old vehicle with 50k miles. and its always unhelpful to give the car to a mech to fix and have them guess what the true mileage is. for instance i once asked for timing belt replacement and i had to start explaining that the Manufacturer recommends replacement at certain intervals, whilst the vehicle has easily x3 that mileage as real mileage with no records that it had been changed |

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by omolomolarinero: 3:58pm On Apr 26, 2019 |
omolomolarinero: Never had a car engine changed and this diesel to petrol engine is entirely strange to me but he has assured me it's gonna serve its purpose my only fear remains the issue of v8 to v4 whatever that is |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by nurey(m): 4:17pm On Apr 26, 2019 |
omolomolarinero: Your engine is not a V8, Nissan V8 can't fit inside that engine bay neither would a Toyota V8 and that's not a 1969 Camaro SS V8 engine either. looking at your engine critically I did say it's a Z series engine fitted into the King cab (1980s to 199x) this particular version never got it. The main reason I said that is if you zoom where the Nissan is inscribed on the engine there is Z there, I have seen the Z engines too but without the carburetor cover. if truly that is a Z engine oga you have one of the most die hard engine to ever grace the forest of Southwest. That guy would comfortably pull 2tons uphill.

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by omolomolarinero: 4:33pm On Apr 26, 2019 |
nurey: Thanks. I guess that means the engine won't give me much of a problem. It's high time I ditched my mechanic for telling me v8 tweaked into v4. Already confirmed from the dealer if truly he changed the engine from a diesel to a petrol engine. I can only hope it lasts and not break down in the middle of a forest |
