Master Gazzuzz..pls kindly advice. I discovered from my car manual that we used 5litres of oil to service my car instead of 6.1litres. Can I go ahead to add the extra 1litre since my car is beginning to flash the low oil pressure light. Also the ATF fluid level in my car is below the normal gauge. and am beginning to see the ATF/ temp light on my dash board. Please what's the best brand of automatic transmission fluid that I need for my toyota rav4 2006. And how do i know the original. The car is a 2months old Toks. Thanks |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 6:54am On Apr 10, 2015 |
conyema12: Its obviously a V6 for that amount of engine oil. Why did you have to wait till you saw the low oil preasure warning light! Well hope you have not caused engine damage by your actions. For the transsmission oil, its not supposed to short unless there's a leak! You can top it off with toyotaWS transsmission oil. There are 1liter packs for both oils. Recomended oil for your vehicle engine oil 5W30. Transmission oil Toyota WS As per how to know the original, gaskiya I have no idea, I have a toyota parts dealer that sells only toyota original parts by part numbers and vin so I'm at peace with his products. |

GAZZUZZ: Ok thank you Actually am not aware of that as I just bought the car and told the agent to service it for me b4 bringing it down to east. But no problem. .I will add the extra 1litre. Pls can I get the contact of the toyota dealer for the transmission fluid. |

Please sir, can you recommend a substitute of Toyota t-iv transmission fluid. Manufacturers recommended fluid oil for my Pontiac vibe 2004 model is the one I mentioned above, unfortunately, I cannot find Toyota t-iv transmission fluid where I lived,and my transmission gear needs urgent oil change. |

conyema12: Oga Gazzuzz, thanks for rescuing nairalanders as always. Just to further clarify the poster. the ATF Toyota Type WS doesn't come in a 1 litre can, it comes in 4 litres and sold between (8-11k) depending on your state. |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nissparts(m): 8:30pm On Apr 22, 2015 |
GAZZUZZ: No prone faults. Avoid using dashboard cleaner on the dash. Parts are available but pricy (especially body parts) The suspension is stiff so driving on roads that are not smooth may be slightly uncomfortable |
