Anytime any day, Honda cars are more reliable , has better drive experience and performance than Toyota, Even in terms of Engine power, For example 2.0l Honda Engine is more powerful than a 2.0 Toyota engine, quote me anywhere. Honda is just like a strong baby, take care of it and it won't disappoint you. Many Nigerians don't carry out maintenaNce and yet they want the car to serve them. Many buy bad or poorly maintained second hand Honda's and they will be complaining hondas are not good. As for the shaft issue, every shaft should be changed at least every 2yrs. Once it starts making noise pls change it. And again many mechanics are not good at fixing shaft, some dont use good clips on the booth of the shaft, before you know it the grease starts leaking and the shafts go bad again. Honda cars are not meant for people who love playing shortcuts or negligence on cars. Take care of Honda and it will give you reliability and comfort

Toyota do have faults but spare parts are way cheaper when compared with Honda of same class.

Cos in naija Toyota fan boys they portray the brand like 'saint'.

They'll portray as if Toyota has no problem at all. Team German all the way.

Mehn.. I was using a BMW E39, Great ride.. But omo, one issue everyday and it costs a fortune to fix, plus mechanics were ripping me off. Had to dispose the ride and get a Toyota Avensis... I can't even shout.

You see. That's a hater talking. This thread was made with Toyota in mind. Why do you have to jump on it to spew hate? When a thread for the other car brands are made (plus the German machines), I am very sure their problems would take the whole 1st page of the thread if not more.
I have been using Toyota. Compared to what my friends spend on maintenance and repairs of their brands of car, I don't use up to half of the money and time.

That's how they will be shouting Team German machine upandan. The first BMW I came in contact with was a close friend's. Oh, how I hated that car. I think it should have been named "One Week Thirteen Problems". BMW mechanics aren't much but they all knew us. With the rate at which we visit the workshops, you'd think we were mechanics too. And my friend would never stop bragging about his German Machine.
I remember when we traveled to Ibadan from Akure with the car. We spent 6 days on the road. Yes, 6 days, you read that right. 2 days to Ibadan. Then after the program we went for, we spent another 4 days on the road solving a myriad of car problems.
That was the height Mehn. After that last trip, I learnt to love and appreciate my kukulu Toyota more. I also learnt that aside Policemen, a roadside mechanic on the highway is never your friend. Lastly, I developed a phobia for BMW, no matter how e fine reach.

Hehehe...one week, thirteen problems grin grin

Very non-specific biased writeup.

Every vehicle has its issues. Preventive maintenance, and using the right parts for repairs will fix most of these issues.
Hmm gazzuz the car Doctor as spoken who am i. Nothing but a bloody soldier.

That ur number 1 na die.

You will replace shock absorber today, 5-6 months later you start hearing some funny noise again.

The mechanics are even confused. Sometimes they will tell you tokumbo is better, another day, the reverse.

But forget that Honda rubbish, that is my first car and I can tell you Toyota is more peaceful, na interior I go chop? Who interior epp sef?
There are different types of shock absorbers and struts in the market today. A whole lot of them are sub-standard too. You need to buy from a trusted source with a guarantee. I will give you a tip, you should buy an OEM brand which are quite pricey or you may choose to go for high quality aftermarket replacement shocks. We can give you any of these.

How about crank shaft of Honda that easily removes at top speed? Toyota is a better product, believe me.

It Is not crankshaft. Please Google it.
