HRtechnique:Super smooth!!!!! Very very smooth... Sometime ago it was making a lot of noise from the wheel, consuming fuel, and the brake was not firm. So I took it to a recommended Kazeem and he detected it was the axle that needs a change, break pad and some plugs sha But we agreed to WORK the axle to save cash... He got a new break pad and changed the plug. The fuel consumption has been relatively low now, quite reasonable, no noise whatsoever and it's been a flawless ride. I'm yet to do any servicing after the first time though 2 Likes |

So my car papers (the vehicle license blabla) expired in April then it dawned on me that I've had may beautiful baby Matrix for 14months now! Wow!! I'll review this beautiful barbie without mincing words. When I got my car, I had zero knowledge about cars. This is my first car, no guide or previous experience. For the first 4month I enjoyed my ride but driving wasn't consistent as I was still a learner and yet to understand the new 'status'. So usage was minimal.. I drove once/twice in a week. During the 4th month, I started hearing some kinda screeching noise from the wheels, I couldn't place it..Fuel consumption was high! 6000naira fuel (full tank) would take me to marina 2x in a week and the fuel indicator is close to E already). Well I ended up spending 25,000naira at a kazeem's place.... The noise was persistent and fuel consumption was still the same. Met with another kazeem, he diagnosed axle as the persistent problem. Spend over 50k on that one.. I enjoyed my barbie for 1month.. Axle wahala started. Anyways. I decided to visit another mechanic that suggested I remove the axle completely, did as he suggested..change fuel something something , brake pad and since then, all I've done to this car is to do service it... I drive my car everyday now to everywhere I go. ... I'm not sure it feels any different before and after the axle removal I'll do matrix over and over again! but hey! I've got my eyes on rav4. if you want a lovely trouble-free car for yourself or your woman, this car is it!! 4 Likes |

yettymuse: Congratulations on your Carniversary (Car Anniversary). I hope you had renewed all your papers before VIO, Lastma and Police start smiling to the bank on your expired car documents. Also your car fuel consumption is abnormal (Very & Extremely) High. 6k fuel finish for 2 trips within island is TOTALLY STRANGE for a Toyota sedan product. Your vehicle engine size is 1.8ltr just like Corolla and that fuel suppose take you to Marina more than 7 - 10 times (return journey). I hope fuel attendant No sell you air instead of fuel. Anyway, if (fuel consumption) situation remain same till date, I did suggest you get one of those cheap OBDII reader to scan the vehicle. I am suspecting (I might be wrong), your vehicle's Catalyst Converter has been removed or damaged. Other factors that could cause the excess fuel consumption includes the following vehicle jargons: Sluggish Oxygen Sensors Inaccurate or Defective Coolant Sensor Defective Engine Thermostat Engine Misfire Intake Manifold or EGR Valve Leak Worn or Fouled Spark Plugs Dirty Fuel Injectors Low Compression Wrong Oil Viscosity Dirty Air Filter Clogged Converter or Exhaust Restriction Slipping Clutch or Transmission Low Tires Dragging Brakes Too Much Weight in Your Trunk Poor Driving Habits Just have it scanned and the culprit responsible for the excess fuel consumption inside the vehicle would be identified and you can asked your mecho to correct it. Congratulations once again. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

TheCar:Thank you Sir!!!!!!! . I typed a long ass message, thought I had sent it.. And here I am At the Bolded! Whatttttttt?? I stay at Sangotedo o.. Mogbe, wetin be that gas station name sef. You know when the final mech, the one that removed the axle noticed the fuel consumption, he suggested we change the fuel pump. Since then, I do Marina to-fro, it gets to half and I top up with 3k worth. But I still feel this isn't good enough. Abi I think I need to tell him about this. |
