That issue is peculiar to the Honda accords & Honda CRV manufactured between 1999 & 2007 simply because their ball joint were poorly designed & couldn't withstand excessive wear & tear. More so, it can be avoided if the driver paid enough attention to them. The ball joint aren't expensive. Sold for about 1500 naira each & could last you for a year once changed depending on your driving habit & the kind of road you drive the car on. Later models from 2008 till date don't have that issue anymore including the Honda Accord, Honda City, Honda civic & all newer models. dubem3: 1 Like |

I don't know much about Mitsubishi but if your mechanic said that then it means you have an interference engine. However, I think your engine can be rebuilt. All you need is to buy new timing belt, grind the bent valves or buy new ones & also inspect your pistons; if they have been torn apart you can replace them if the parts are available & lastly u get a new head gasket & your car should be fine. It happens to a lot of vehicles like WV, peugeot, kia, hyundai, mazda & other models & they don't need to buy am engine. On the average fixing it should cost you less than 30k all depends on how much you your belt cost & nature of damage as well hoping your pistons is torn apart mumayo: 1 Like |

A broken timing chain does not necessarily mean you have to change engine, so far it has not damaged it, you just have to replace it and reset the timing. mumayo: |

dubem3: Lack of maintenance and sometimes lack of competent engineers to repair the Honda Machine (Car yea but it's a Machine) Anyone who thinks I'm wrong sud answer the question why some persons never complain about Honda hand issue despite the fact they use theirs and travel also like me And why others complain someone even said here that is own remove 3km away from where he changed it lols that sound like spiritual issue but trust me ... something is wrong somewhere... Btw wrong parts, wrong repairer, or so but definitely not Honda coz it's not general to All who use same Car |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Johnsonkeyz2019: 2:47pm On Oct 11, 2019 |

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by White04: 12:46pm On Oct 12, 2019 |
radautoworks: Good day brother, please I need your expertise on this: What is rhe major difference between a full option vehicle and the other. I intend getting a Lexus es330 2006 model, and I noticed the price difference between the full option and the other is about 300 to 400k. I want to know if it worth it to spend 400k more to get the full option. What do you advise? |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Timtol(m): 12:55pm On Oct 12, 2019 |

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by White04: 12:57pm On Oct 12, 2019 |
Timtol: . |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by radautoworks: 1:05pm On Oct 12, 2019 |
White04: It completely depends on the vehicle. For one, I can see one has in-dash display and the other doesn't. They may also have different suspension and/or engine. Whether the difference is worth the money depends on what you want in a car. You need to just look up the specs of each of the two cars you are comparing. Sites like edmunds.com make it easy. ALSO, TAKE THE CARS FOR A FULL INSPECTION BEFORE YOU BUY EITHER ONE. HAVE IT PUT ON A LIFT AND A COMPUTER DIAGNOSTIC RUN ON IT. A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR THE WISE. THE PEOPLE INSPECTING COULD EVEN TELL YOU THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO. AND DON'T GET A KAZEEM BECAUSE IT'S CHEAPER. 2.5-10k now to protect 2M. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Timtol(m): 1:06pm On Oct 12, 2019 |
White04:Pls wait lemme understand this,you are buying a car of 300k? |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by White04: 1:10pm On Oct 12, 2019 |
Timtol: LOL. No bro. I mean the difference in price between both cars is 300k. The full option is 300k costlier than the other one. So I am asking, for those who might have used both cars here, if there is any major differences between them. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by White04: 1:11pm On Oct 12, 2019 |
radautoworks: Thanks man. I will do exactly as advised. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by radautoworks: 1:13pm On Oct 12, 2019 |
White04: No. Post inspection results here especially scan and NLers will tell you if its a go or not. Don't let them convince you to forgo a computer scan because there are no lights. Codes can be erased to get rid of lights but they'll come up on a scan |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by White04: 1:23pm On Oct 12, 2019 |
radautoworks: Surely. Thanks man, I really appreciate. |
