Why Just go for a diagnosis before you get a heart attack from guesses.

HeavenlyBang:


Have it looked at by a professional shop. Sensitive work.

HeavenlyBang:


31mpg, wtf.

DreCharles:
Diagnosis in my part of Nigeria is a risky business. Most of them use Bluetooth scanners and from what I've read here, I don't think it will work well.

Not experienced it again since yesterday and I'm still open to suggestions. Thanks

HeavenlyBang:


Go to a proper shop, sir. Or go to Aunty Radu's place if you're in Lagos.

DreCharles:
Not in Lagos

HeavenlyBang:


Where?

DreCharles:
Abeokuta

HeavenlyBang:


Timifakay, maybe?

DreCharles:
He is in Oyo state if I'm correct. We are states apart

nurey:


iberekodo, camp, lafenwa, itaoshin exterior ends of abeokuta to ikoyi is less than 100km journey that's 2hours journey or 3hours journey with traffic. Ikoyi to rad is around 30 to 40kms and it's highway driving. just book appointment for a Saturday and leave early you can even reach Lagos in 1hr if you are a RuffRyder like me.

though I have not seen a big car shop in abeokuta though

HeavenlyBang:


His car isn't revving, though?

nurey:


His car works perfectly currently according to him.

on the 3rd try the car function correctly.

He also replied again that the car has not misbehaved since then. You seems to be close on the TPS thing since no revv instead of revv but no movement

Chelseafan1:


What have you to say about this?

Trip I made recently. Ds one mad.

Who says Naija fuel can't get you the rated MPG?

rationalmind:


Exactly what I've always preached. As long as you drive moderately, no CEL or exhaust leaks, factory rated MPG is acheviable with our fuel.

This was what I got during a recent trip to Owerri on a tl. No special attention was paid to driving style. I easily get 26-27mpg when I do that.

HeavenlyBang:


I've gotten around 22 mpg before. So, yeah, ratings can be achieved and even exceeded.

I just don't like to.

igbizen:
It worked. What could be wrong with the dashboard that my kasim bypassed? He couldn't explain to my understanding.

Chelseafan1:


Na so we see am ooo

Chelseafan1:


Madam Radu, how's the workshop Seun and every staff?..

My next oil change will be done at the workshop God willing.

I have only driven for 1500 miles since the last change, still has 3500 miles to go.

How much will a new set of tie rod /Ball joint cost. Lemme plan for it while coming.?

HeavenlyBang:


It's based on the E Class and shares parts.



I don't think the CLS 350 uses airmatic.

radautoworks:


They are doing okay. Hope you are enjoying your vehicle. Remind me year and model please.

Eddee:


Bro, I'm speechless. Nice value for money you've got there. One question though, is your AC on? Do you use it always?

Chelseafan1:


Nice one bro, my car no dey chop fuel at all, I'm always on AC, at times, I wonder how it will be if I don't use AC sef.

radautoworks:


Tie rods N17,100 - N28,300 each depending on which one it is. Will have to be ordered. Do you know which ones? Inner, outer?

Ball joint about N10k on Amazon I think. Ours don't come separately. They come with control arm.

Chelseafan1:


Yes o, my AC is always on. You'll hardly catch me with my glasses wound down.

I wish I could travel for 50km without having to use my brakes and restart gear. Maybe id have achieved 35mpg

It stopped at 31 cos I was approaching a new town with bumps installed at intervals, so I had to decelerate and accelerate, even at that, it took some distance b4 it got to 25mpg in the city.

Chelseafan1:


I'll check what the guy who diagnosed my car gave me and get back to u.


Thank you so much, I'll bookmark this and work with it.

What about the complete suspension replacement for the front tyres?

radautoworks:


Umm.. might want to narrow that down. Complete suspension is a lot. Why??

HeavenlyBang:


I wonder where y'all hear all of these nonsense.
