GAZZUZZ:


one of my first inspections... Happy to hear it's still running fine

MusaDanladi1:

Oga GAZZUZZ is there any upcoming project like the 2008 Toyota Camry Hybrid? I really enjoyed following that thread bumper to bumper and also your expertise and finesse towards the job

GAZZUZZ:


I really don't plan these things, but let's see how it goes, if I find a vehicle worthy restoration we go there

BamBamK:

Eddee:


Thanks chief, however - Infiniti M35 is very close to been sold. In short, installment payment recieved and fully processed.

BamBamK:
choi.... em G35 day quite appealing sha....

Eddee:


Baba, I'm phasing out problems in the form of infiniti and Mercedes from my life this year.

M35 has been sold at a loss (understandably why) although my cousin dey hold my balance based on say OBD2 port no gree connect - dem wan test fuses/relays and other kazeem extensions before him wire balance.

Couldn't sell the E Class at a good enough rate so my younger brother has taken full ownership (if he has small sense, he'll find a way to sell it after Christmas and buy a Civic or City).

Thanks to oluwaseunla and diportivo I'm currently roaming around with a corolla that gives zero worries and runs for 2 weeks on a full tank.

My brother I don suffer abeg no be small. E get time wer i dey change Autokaf/Tibao fuel pumps and filters every 2 months until i close eye order OEM VDO one time.

Make I no even mention 4matic Wheel sensors - that nonsense can shut down ABS, ESP, Cruise Control and even your power steering sef, unless you be person wer no dey do long distance travel. You will need to get OEM Bosch/Hella.
The genuine ones from Mercedes will send you back to the village.




My brother find a way and get you a corolla/Sunny/Civic as a daily driver - you'll testify of the goodness of fuel economy. For a car that basically makes me no money, it sure takes a lot in the form of fueling. It takes between 11,300-11,700 to fill that 80 ltrs of the Merc. Never filled the M35, but it easily takes 10k fuel and deep down i know it will take some more. My brother I bought 7k fuel for that corolla last week Monday, i still have close to a quarter tank. City hustling movements never change. (I'll require almost twice that for the Merc or M35).




Baba, abeg I don tire to dey call una every month for troubleshooting. The true position is I drove my Benz, the way it was designed not as a city bird but what in real sense it is supposed to be. Averaged 900-1000km weekly highway and 150-200 within the city sometimes in that same week. So it actually opened me up to recurring repairs on wear and tear items like alternators, BCMs, coolant hoses and a lot other nonsense - my kazeem could actually predict what will break next. I made up my mind to dispose of it, the day I called you for tyre size alternatives i could use, after not finding the exact match. Lost two tyres due to Buhari's Federal roads, in one day - was so frustrated at the car and the fact that I couldn't find 18" tyres where I was stranded.

HeavenlyBang:



This is the part of luxury German ownership most of the crowd won't admit tho. Though I guess the fact that the car was getting on in age was a factor too.

Get one guy for Instagram wey dey always argue say all cars dey equally reliable. Lmao.

Eddee:


Which oyinbo G go sell luxury car wer him never rock well unless na repo?

I've seen so much false reliability ratings being dished out by so many guys on NL who own Mercs that have very little electronics in them. Do you know that an alternator issue on a Benz is not very easy to detect in its early stage? It has to fail before STAR will be sure its an alternator, Battery control module or the Battery itself, if you're unlucky as I was - there's an auxiliary battery too. (although I kazeem that one with motorcycle battery, story for another day).

dannybrasky:

Sad but true,among all the cars i have brought in for sale,Benz has been the one i have to put in more money in fixing one or 2 issues.
Change brake pads,you have to change the brake pad sensors,you if don't buy am OEM linkage it will snap when you hit a Port hole or on a rough road. With many many miscellaneous speading i can't account for. Yes i sell them,its a smooth car to drive,just make sure you won't mind coughing out money when the need arises.

mammanbawa:
We've lost Eddee
So long bro

Eddee:


Most persons don't know that if you don't change the brake pad with the brake pad sensors - the annoying "brake wear and tear" and "service brakes" message will never leave your dash. In short na matter of time before e disable ESP and ABS.

Very useless engineering, i no wan mention TPMS sef, small things like this should not stop us Nigerians from enjoying our car, some of us can live comfortably with the SRS light on.

dannybrasky:


Chai!! Very very annoying something!! All the Benz I have bought have that SRS MALFUNCTION nonsense!! Funny enough the first Benz I bought the yeye kazeem that wanted to clear the brake pad wear rubbish made me buy 4 different brake pads in 4 days. we change brake pads so tee the stupid writing kept popping on the instrument cluster!!
Not until i checked Google for solution ( brakepad sensor) na me go buy sensor still show kazeem how to change am

thebigkendo:


Bolded is very common with Benz and ovloV - SRS Airbag service urgent

I guess it's the over engineering.. expecially in the safety

thebigkendo:


Speed777

That kind talk make me unfollow am

dannybrasky:

One client bought a Benz from me,he complained about the SRS light,I told him no biggie, I'll clear it with a scanner,but baba i was wrong!!

We used the most sophisticated scanner you can think of,YouTube,Benz forum,check airbag wiring,seat belt buckle!! Nothing could fix this nonsense. Car owner was just irritated seeing the SRS nonsense,he left car in my custody for 3 days,still i couldn't get it off. Both kazeems and qualified mechanics couldn't help. Had to return the car like that,Owner no dey talk to me anymore because of the SRS matter
And i no won use black masking tape cover am as one kazeem did for someone here thebigkendo

thebigkendo:


Fixed

Eddee:


Big man, even you sef go advise me to leave. I remember the day I called you when I had that shifter cable or na Transmission Range wahala some 8-9 months ago? Can you remind me what the issue was exactly? I've paid my dues, time to rest. Airtime to call people no go dey next year

dannybrasky:

Danm!! Na you? crazy kazeem!!

thebigkendo:


SRS and check engine light Naim dem do me.. Base on novice that year

Now I have a Bluetooth scanner permanently plugged in.. Anytime I notice change in performance.. Scanning straight
