HRtechnique: power steering drains power from engine just like the AC especially when you turn it to extremes. I would also check the throttle body could be dirty. If you notice erratic rpm during start up before car warms up have throttle body cleaned |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by princevih(m): 8:18pm On Oct 20, 2018 |
pls oga nurey & other gurus i need u to compare between dis 2 suvs 07 4runner and pathfinder. Based on ruggedity, performance, reliability,ground clearance, availability of parts. NOTE: am helping a frnd out who is sitting on d fence in between d 2. thanks all |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 8:41pm On Oct 20, 2018 |
princevih: Ruggedity draw I have seen both vehicles used for 4 years plus and they still maintain same body shape only colour fading. performance In terms of hp the pathfinder both have identical V6 engine but the 4runner V8 is 4.7 against 5.6 for the pathfinder. Both are off road vehicles they aren't for the everyday performance so offroader performance is going to be a draw Reliability for the V6 draw for V8 I will give the 4runner ground clearance draw at least where one goes successfully the other would achieve same. availability of parts in terms of pricing and original I will jejely pick the pathfinder. Both vehicles are identical really and none to me is superior over the other the 4runner has a good city mpg while the pathfinder has a good highway mpg. when buying the pathfinder ensure you do a radiator bypass for the gear cooling after that you will enjoy the car for years. The 4runner V6 engine is around a million naira for replacement. 1 Like |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 9:56pm On Oct 20, 2018 |
Bright12660: maintenance cost the ES350 isn't that expensive as it shares most part with camry of same year. Fuel economy lexus, cargo space Lexus. The c350 is a 268hp RWD/4matic vs the ES350 272hp FWD/AWD the ES350 is faster though. The c350 should have a good handling and better performance especially the 4matic. in the luxury segment both a identical in optional gadgets and standard tech. if your friend wish for reliability and to play it safe the ES350 will do. if he wants something that stands out from the crowd he can pick the Benz. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HRtechnique: 10:09pm On Oct 20, 2018 |
@ nurey, can you compare Honda Civic 05 and Matrix 05. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 5:16am On Oct 21, 2018 |
HRtechnique: The civic has a more luxurious feel and better fuel economy to the matrix. especially with the EX trim. The matrix is more of a utilitarian vehicle with its AWD and hatchback form enabling a huge cargo space especially when the back seat is folded down. The AWD helps it in traction while the 180hp XRS gives it a formidable speed performance though the civic Si is bae but you will find it hard to come across in Nigeria. for simplicity fuel economy and build quality the civic is the good choice. if you want to hurl goods around and own a toyota thieves shy away from the matrix is a good choice. 1 Like |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 7:16am On Oct 21, 2018 |
nurey: The ES350 is NOT faster. Both have a 0-60 of 6.4s but the Lexus will be eaten by the Benz after. The 2010 ES350 does a quarter mile in 14.7s. But a manual 2005 (2006 in the US) C350 does it in 14.2s. An automatic C350 would be more than a second faster. Bright12660:The only thing the ES is better at is reliability and the interior feel. Performance, looks, handling are all for the Benz. 1 Like |

Nurey, pls compare a 2010 BMW E90 335i and a 2010 VW Passat B6 V6 in terms of handling, driving n comfort...it's gonna do alot of long distance |

Who compares a Lexus built on the Camry platform with a C klasse. That's a very unfair comparison. The comparison should be with an appropriate Benz marquee.... the E klasse. Y'all should compare the C klasse to the Corolla 1 Like |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 10:31am On Oct 21, 2018 |
egesie: I have read alot about both cars, I don't know if the 335i is the turbo charged engine one probably the Xi sha. Handling The beeper wins Drivers car the beeper wins, it's a performance vehicle though the passat 4motion isn't a bad in performance but not upto par with the beeper. comfort now that's where the passat has it. reliability passat maintenance cost passat is a bit cheaper it's also sturdy engine wise there were a number of complaint on the E90 oil, coolant etc. mpg good average fair guzzler. I did give both fair. resale value some how the VW don't do well in the Nigerian used segment. The beeper if well taken care of becomes a classic not same for the VW. in all do a VIN check and inspection before committing funds both vehicles are electrically and technologically advanced to be messed up. |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Nobody: 11:59am On Oct 21, 2018 |
nurey: Reliability wise, I would give it to the BMW. Reason; I have used both and Passat seems to have myriads of issues mainly electrical. Passat doesn't have 2nd hand value as well. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 12:26pm On Oct 21, 2018 |
nurey: Lol, are you having a laugh? The 1997 C280 would eat any Corolla ever made. Performance - C280 Handling - C280 Speed - C280 Luxury will, of course, be a different story as the disparity in ages is huge. 3 Likes |
