blackbone989: You see these Volvo people, they have a cult like followership, they are like obidients led by mazi valarinz. If I talk any how now, thread go scatter. Only thing be say cost of clearing both models has made it ridiculous importing any of them. 3 Likes |

Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by Carparts888(m): 8:39pm On Aug 27, 2022 |
Get the 4 cylinder venza of any year (2gr engine cost now ooo and over heating even once can destroy engine) Avoid 2009 to 2012 crosstour v6(vcm misfire and plug soaking issues) If u must go for cross tour v6, get from 2013 upwards (newer better and more reliable v6 engine) or get 2012 and above 4 cylinder engine (4 cylinder was introduced from 2012) kewelljoseph: 1 Like |

Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by peterpeteru: 4:01am On Aug 29, 2022 |
GAZZUZZ: Thanks boss for the succinct response. Which of the 2006 trims with 3mz engine can you recommend? e.g AWD, CE FWD, LE FWD, LE AWD, XLE FWD, etc. What of the AC? |
Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by Carparts888(m): 4:49am On Aug 29, 2022 |
Let me help out with what i know about this. If its for transport avoid any Awd as they tend to be problematic after numerous trips. As for the model trim, it depends on what you can afford as XLE either Fwd or Awd is the extra luxurious edition which comes with all the fullest options than the other LE and CE trim. The options of XLE usually include heated seats, leather seat, DVD with navigation, auto climate control system, heated mirror etc. while LE(luxurious edition) is the trim with the second best options and the CE(classic edition or base model) has the least options and its usually the cheapest trim. XLE is obviously the best but they are the most expensive trim so buy it if u can afford or go for LE or CE. The AC system is not complicated for 2004 to 2006 sienna. peterpeteru: 2 Likes |

peterpeteru: In all you do avoid the AWD option. It's not bad, it's just more expensive to repair the transmission if and when it fails. For trims https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.lexingtontoyota.com/blog/what-do-the-toyota-trim-level-acronyms-mean/ No let them scam you CE in naija means " cheap edition " that classic was to make it look good. The air-conditioning is a manual compressor, very reliable , with high mileage leaks are common on the compressor, also rear evaporator leaks are common too. 1 Like |

Carparts888: Why will anybody buy a crossover with i4? Even a midsized sedan should be a v6. |
Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by Carparts888(m): 7:27am On Aug 29, 2022 |
I have seen people specifically look for 09 to 013 Highlander 4 cylinder(2.7l), so its a matter of choice like for better fuel economy or reliability. The funny thing is that they still pack a Punch with adequate power for highway overtaking. kingreign: |
Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by kingreign(m): 7:31am On Aug 29, 2022 |
Carparts888: They pack no serious punch! It’s mainly for economy and also it is mostly for entry levels. It isn’t for more reliability as an i4 will undergo thru much more stress carrying a heavy body compared to a V6 and this will result in much rapid wear and tear to the engine in the long run. 3 Likes 2 Shares |
Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by Carparts888(m): 8:32am On Aug 29, 2022 |
I didnt say it packs a serious punch but an adequate one. I guess your a fan of v6 and v8 but let me use to 2009 to 2015 venza 4 cylinder 2.7l 1AR engine which is also applicable to highlander and sienna. That engine may not pur and accelerate like a v6 but note the engine is of a 2.7l capacity and combined with a six speed automatic transmission, I hardly see any stress to that engine. It still has good torque for highway overtaking so where u wan fly go with a v6 on the highway wey u no go see me for your side mirror Forget power, 1AR engine is super reliable even more than 2GR engine but I stand to be corrected. kingreign: 1 Like |
Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by kingreign(m): 8:39am On Aug 29, 2022 |
Carparts888: Ask yourself why it was discontinued in Highlander, Sienna and 4Runners but the V6 were left untouched till date but only few modifications and fine tuning. And No! When it comes to power delivery, and smoothness, your 1AR or 2AR can’t match a 3MZ V6 not to talk of a 2GR V6. You won’t catch up if these V6 vehicles have their speed limiter deleted as long as driver has guts. Yes it may be more economical, but hey, a 2GR has very very good fuel economy. Besides, why would I buy a big 2ton plus vehicle and talk fuel economy? 4 Likes |

Re: Let's Discuss USED Vehicles by Carparts888(m): 9:29am On Aug 29, 2022 |
They were discontinued after 2019 because Toyota wanted to try a new 4 cylinder turbo(2.4l) which is norms with advancement in tech of developing a better and more efficient engine and not because the AR engine series wasn't reliable. So ask yourself why there is still a 4 cylinder option in a 2 ton SUV? Kingrein, bring any vehicle with 3mz and let me just use a Camry SE with 2AR engine with 6speed automatic and let me see how u will smoke me kingreign: 1 Like |
