Most mechanics will connect the fan direct without removing the thermostat,so that's definitely what happened which is the reason why the temperature gets to the middle within five minutes of driving.

Differential or transmission?
For transmission, yes it does. It's a sealed transmission and is said to last the lifetime of the car according to the manufacturer, but not changing the transmission oil at every 50,000 miles would shorten the lifetime.
For the differential, it's a front front wheel drive car and the differential is joined with the transmission to make it a single unit unlike rear wheel drive or multiple drive wheel cars that have a separate differential and transfer case that should be serviced and lubed separately.

Good Morning.

Please I’d like to ask and know the Reason why the rear differential/axle of an AWD Venza vibrates violently when the car turns at low speed.

Looks like the tires aren’t slowing down for each other when making turn.

Please help.

Defective rear differential. Replace it.

jceesquare:


You've answered the question yourself.
The last time I checked, your vehicle does not have a locking differential. If it locks up for any reason, then the differential needs to be examined.
Jack all 4 wheels up and spin individually, you go see why

modskiller:


Can the differential be repaired please. Money no too dey

kingreign:


It can but will it last?

modskiller:


I strongly believe with good maintenance it should last.

Also how much would a repair cost and what part would one need to buy?

Bearing and seals alone?

I'm planning of getting a Cargo bus, the one usually called panel bus for use for distribution of goods (Biscuits, Bread, Hollandia milk etc) within the city and I'm contemplating between a Ford transit or VW transporter. Can someone please advise on which is better in terms of low cost to run, durability, availability of parts and easy to work on by most of our Kazeems. Thanks.

modskiller:


(1.) I jacked up the two back wheels and rolled them.

(2.) They seem to go in different directions when I rolled them with my hands, but there was no loud or really noticeable sound.

(3.) The front axle which the propeller is attached to seems bent to one side by few degrees, also the chassis seems to be bent towards the back too, could these 2 factors also cause the wheels not to spin properly when turning.

Please Note: if I’m going on a straight line there is no vibrations at all.

Thank you 🙏

sammily:


Any opinion?

kingreign:

I reserve my comment on the good maintenance it should last line of thought.


I cant tell you what you need to replace cos I don't have the faintest idea of what's broken inside.

jceesquare:

Does the wheel or differential make any funny clicking sound while turning it?
You didn't state what position the gear selector was when performing that test.
Run a VIN check on your car to know if it's an accidented car.
Not sure it should be bent or slanted.

GAZZUZZ:


Check tyre size for all 4 tyres. You have a descripiency

modskiller:


All tires are 245/55 Sir

modskiller:


1. I think it made a very very faint clock/tap sound when it gets to a particular point on when I roll it.

2. The vin is shows a dent free car.
