I understand just that I need to shine eyes well while buying .. I used a Peugeot 406 1999model 1.8 liter Engine with good fuel economy for years now. The Engine is highly reliable . doesn't disappoint no stories .I just wanted to upgrade to a Toyota brand this time .... The only Toyota Camry I like was this model 2008... Now story about Engine and transmission problem coupled with the dashboard problem .hmmmmmm nurey: |

What about the Toyota Camry 2006 Engine and transmission? 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nurey(m): 12:07pm On Sep 09, 2019 |
Macemy: Buy the 2008 Camry and ensure 1. you use a synthetic blend oil 5w30 and change every 6months or 8k km utilizing a high mileage capable oil filter along with it. 2. Change the transmission fluid with Toyota WS or Total equivalent (Total MVLV fluid) which is available in total fueling station, to avoid unforseen circumstances you can do this every year or two years tops because of driving Dynamics of our roads. 3. use a well reviewed coolant in your cooling system. 4. The AC compressor too is very sensitive and fails too, replace with the same compressor when it happens and always pay attention to the quality of gas refill used in the system. 5. Don't drive the Camry like a Camaro, if it isn't a Camaro, then it can't drive like a fast sports car. Fiendi 2 Likes |

Hello, Anyone using toyota highlander here who can share his fuel experience? I use 5k fuel for about 130km with traffic and A/C on. Is this ok? The engine is i4 |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by seanfer(m): 2:06pm On Sep 10, 2019 |
Stormyweather: To get accurate MPG. Fill up your tank and set the trip A on the Odometer to zero. Once the fuel gauge gets to the middle m, you check the number on the trip A. By doing this you can get to know if your vehicle consumes excess fuel. |

seanfer:thanks I'll try it. |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nymphomaniac(m): 6:27am On Sep 12, 2019 |
Hi guys, good morning. I am thinking of buying a Hyundai Elantra 2010 manual transmission that my boss wants to sell at 200k. The snag is that the Brain box or ECU has been bad for years so the car has been parked for quite a while. Is it a good bargain? I hear the ECU is difficult to find and costs about 200k as well...kindly advise me pls. |

Dear Boss, I am now sure I have a serious problem with my Lexus RX 300....last week the lex started smoking and my mechanic said I need to replace the valve seal and gasket.... Gasket and rings etc were changed and today my Lexus loss power on the Lagos - Ibadan express way...in fact I had to tow it to a mechanic place in Ibadan.....now this Mecahnic said I either buy another engine or I replace the camshaft, conrod, mental etc ...now my question is...what is the likely cost for an engine or will the car work well if I decide to change the conrod and others....I travel on d lagos-ibadan express way weekly......which will possibly be d beat option considering cost and workability/durability of the car. I await your response |
