Guys please how is maintenance on Honda Civic 2004?

HeavenlyBang:


4cy has less power and better fuel economy. Buy if you just want to go to where you're going to without stress. 6cyhas more power, worse fuel economy.

That Camry was facelifted in 2010. The four cylinder engine was replaced in the facelift year with a way more reliable engine. 6cy engine stayed the same.

If you want to buy a 4cy model, please buy the 2010. You'll be fine with a 2008/2009 V6, though.

Skip the 2007.

LE, SE, and XLE are various trim levels. XLE is the top trim. SE is the sports model, I believe. Only cosmetic changes, I think.

Hybrid uses an electric battery in conjunction with the engine. Best fuel economy of the bunch. Not worth it, imo, ignore it.

Good day FAM...
I need ur review on the FORD ESCAPE 2010 ..
Is she problematic?
Are the parts available and affordable?

HeavenlyBang:


Good. Those engines aren't the sturdiest, from what I've heard, though. But maintenence is very cheap, suspension parts are way more durable than the equivalent Corolla's TheCar, for example. Feel free to buy one in good shape.

HeavenlyBang:

Not conversant with Ford.

FreeConCiencE:


Thanks sir.

So, I will go for 08/09 V6 OR 010v4. But if I go for 08v6 or 09 v6 hope it's OK. And hope the fuel efficiency is not too bad for either 08 or 09?

HeavenlyBang:


Go for the V6. It's a hell of an engine. Toyota still uses that same engine on its cars till date.

FreeConCiencE:


Thanks sir. I will go for 2009 V6 XLE. God bless you.

nurey:


solid car but parts are extremely expensive and watch out for rust. My neighbour uses one bought brandnew has a very bad maintenance culture and car still moving fine. His own is a 4 cylinder engine.

My verdict is you should buy it if it's within your budget range and use it judiciously not like a road rage vehicle

Since me I never compare, let me do so
HeavenlyBang, nurey, radautoworks, Diportivo, Obekediamondfuto, thebig.kendo, and who again oooooo....... Come and compare 2006 Toyota Avalon with 2006 Mercedes benz E350.
Or kindly point me to the page if it has been compared before......

johnnyandy7:
Is the Mercedes Benz C300/C350 2011 Model a good (in terms of durability, maintenance and value for money) car ? What are the Pros and Cons of this car ?

HeavenlyBang:


New engine on the C350, I believe. Don't expect Toyota maintenence, these aren't cars for poor men. Value for money? Meh, I'd buy a Lexus GS350 instead.

johnnyandy7:

The GS looks good though. How much does it cost ?

Nairaland has a search button.
Same argument still applies
https://www.nairaland.com/4490342/2010-avalon-vs-08-09#67336048

06 Avalon is a wannabe luxury car ship .. I will go for a lexus ES350 over the Avalon sha

banky3w:


Ewwwww..... I hate that dashboard design. I detest it in fact.

If I use the search button, then why am I a demeanour?

HeavenlyBang:


If you have money for a 2011 C350, you should have the money for a 2013 GS350. New generation in 2012. Same generation is still running. Updated looks to match Lexus's current design, and handling and drive feel became much better.

If you run it yourself via auctions, you should be able to land one for circa 7m.

johnnyandy7:


How about parts, does it share parts with other Toyotas ?

HRtechnique:
