Gazzuzz, good afternoon.
Please, I do like to seek your opinion and that of others on 2014 Acura MDX on the durability, maintenance, parts availability and cost etc.
I appreciate all information to help me in my decision.
THanks

if compared to other older models, the parts are not so popular.

As per durability , it's an ajebo SUV , if you want a proper off road/in city SUV Honda or Acura don't fit the list.

But really nice car if u have good roads

Oga Gazzuzz,
Thanks for your prompt response. I have read a lot of good and bad about Acura models older than 2014, but not so much about this third generation, one thing that is getting me worried is that I am pretty sure the parts will be costly.
I have read about changing the timing belts as at when due, infact this is the first time I am hearing this, I didn't even know the timing belt has to be changed at specific period, advised must always use the OEM (Honda / Acura) branded oils and some said it does not do very well in MPG due to the type of petrol we have in country.
Just wanted us to rub mind as all the discuss will help to uphold me fears or dismiss the fear about this SUV. It is intended for daily light use.

Almost all cars are good, just that Japan major cars, Honda and Toyota, would likely last longer and easier to maintain.

Hence the reason why good mechanic would suggest them.

Except if don't mind

Good Evening,

I have an old reliable Benz 190E Padded. Engine and Body still in extremely good shape. I will like to UPGRADE AND BEAUTIFY the car as I really like the car and don't want to allow it rot away in my garage. Do you know anyone who can do a good job of Pimping and adding some few new good features to the car for me?

Urgent responses will be appreciated.

The 04 to 05 was fitted with 3.3L while the 09 is fitted with 3.5L

The 3.5L is faster and more fuel efficient than the 3.3L but the Engine and transmission of the 09 cost more than the 3.3L

They are both solid but the 3.5 is an all aluminum block Engine, if it has a serious overheating problem replacement of the Engine is the only solution. But personally I would buy a 3.5 over 3.3 if I am not a novice in vehicles

Thanks, I prefer 09 since it is newer,

Oga gazzuz say make I lecture you.. My personal opinion say away from naija used cars.. At least 40% of them are abuse from bad engine to engine shorten oil.. It will become a money pit ...
But if you decide to go for naija used, have it in the back of your head that you are taking a big risk .And be ready to deal with the outcome of your choices ..
And apart from that those cars you mention are not good for uber.. Either focus on a civic 03 to 05 or the almighty Corolla.. But with your budget a Corolla is not visible. So with a little more money go for toks civic and you can get a good one between 1.3m naira to 1.5m naira.

Good afternoon Hi Chief Guzzuzz,
Kindly help my ignorance on car techinical terms and explanation. My Tayota Camry 2010 model with i4 (2ar-fe) engine developed a gearbox issue during the Xmas season travel. The gearbox wouldn't select gears except gear 1 and 2. The rev will reach 5,6,7 and the car wouldn't select gear.
I have managed to bring the car back to abuja and i meet my mechanic here and after checking he said the gearbox brainbox (one black small box) wasn't communicating which he said he fix and the car is communicating with the gearbox.
The issue now is the problem haven't be resolved. The car can only select all gears if I am driving slowly like a learner. Please help me.

Hello Chief Gazzuzz.
My 2011 Nissan Altima throws the following codes:

P0443
P0138
P0037
P2138
P0420

I did some research online, and I found out that some of the codes are complimentary. But I feel, getting your experienced suggestions will be great before taking it to the mechanic.
The car runs and drives great, btw

Thanks boss.

You have issues with your O2 sensor and Heated Oxygen sensor and Catalytic Converter in bank 1.
Also, you have an evap system malfunction.
Is
Check for voltage readings on these sensors and also check for exhaust leaks.

Looks like a vibe. Rear suspension is not complicated.

Total cost of suspension repair should not exceed 120k

I have seen this route a lot of times, usually does not end well.
