Car Talk › Toyota Avalon Sedan Will End Production In 2022 by aieromon(op): 9:38am On Sep 07, 2021 |
Toyota will drop the Avalon large sedan from its lineup after the 2022 model year, as first reported by Automotive News and confirmed to C/D by a Toyota spokesperson. Production will end in August 2022 at Toyota's plant in Georgetown, Kentucky, where the company also builds the Camry and Lexus ES sedans. The Avalon is currently in its fifth generation and has been on sale in the U.S. since 1994. Positioned above the Camry mid-size sedan, it competes in the dwindling large sedan segment that has seen numerous competitors die off in recent years. Apart from the Toyota, the Nissan Maxima, Dodge Charger, and Chrysler 300 are the only vehicles in this segment still on sale after the cancelations of the Chevy Impala, Hyundai Azera, Kia Cadenza, and Ford Taurus. The fifth-generation Avalon was introduced for the 2019 model year and offers either a 3.5-liter V-6 engine, a 2.5-liter inline-four with all-wheel drive, or a hybrid drivetrain with a 2.5-liter inline-four. It sold 10,328 units through the first half of 2021 and a total of 18,421 units in 2020, similar numbers as the Maxima but far behind the Charger, which sold 42,103 units in the first half of 2021. Toyota says that the performance TRD model and the all-wheel-drive models will be discontinued for the 2022 model year. After production ends in the fall, the company will continue to sell leftover inventory through the end of next year. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a37209265/toyota-avalon-dead-2022/ |

aieromon: It seems the honeymoon phase with Speedaf is over. 
I received a mail from them this evening
I asked to find out if home deliveries have ceased and the customer rep replied that the particular package was on Economy delivery and referred me to a phone number to contact if I would like to make delivery arrangements.
I guess FOC home deliveries for Cainiao Economy shipping have been discontinued. I visited the Speedaf office to pick up my package. As explained by the rep, the owners of packages whose tracking numbers end with O (Cainiao Economy) will have to visit their office for pickup henceforth within 7 days of notification. On the other hand, owners of packages whose tracking numbers end with R (AE Standard Shipping) are eligible for home delivery. |

Gynn: I appreciate man. But Yobe doesn't have an Airport, or do they? Construction is ongoing and is open to private planes for now |
Travel › Re: What's The Best Way To Travel From Lagos To Yobe State? by aieromon(m): 3:13pm On Aug 31, 2021 |
Gynn: A friend will like to travel from lagos and get to Yobe on Friday morning, preferably.
I learnt there's no direct flight from Lagos down there.
So the best route is to take flight from Lagos to Kano. And then bus from Kano to Potiskum.
Can someone who has experience point out where he can take bus in Kano to Potiskum.
Thanks You can actually leave Lagos and arrive Potiskum same day. Take an early morning flight to Kano. At the airport, take an airport shuttle and inform the driver to drop you off at the Damaturu bus park (I can't remember the name of the park). Kano to Potiskum is about 4 hours and the roads are safe and motorable. You need to land in Kano latest 12noon to have any chance of entering Potiskum before 7pm (delay in loading of passengers at the bus park). Alternatively, you could decide to use the car hire service from Kano airport to Potiskum-Damaturu (costs roughly NGN40,000). |

Car Talk › Re: NEED ADVISE: Kicks On Engaging Into Gear 2 by aieromon(m): 11:18am On Aug 31, 2021 |
michaelok: Please I need your advise.
My Nissan Altima 2005 2.5 S (Automatic transmission) kicks (boom sound) when it enters gear 2. Almost like shakes the engine, as if the engine seating is bad. I am trying to get the right English for it. After that, the following gear selections are smooth. It happens only on the first gear movement.
What could be the problem? Common problem with the 4-speed transmission. Cheap fix is to confirm if tranny oil is burnt. If it is, drain and refill with Nissan Matic D. Expensive fix? Check the bulletin below https://f01.justanswer.com/05muranosl/840e89c0-6f7f-4664-9431-c5656d8c0f59_P0745.pdf |

eddy2farm: Hello guys my 2005 Nissan Pathfinder is in a limp mode or in a high gear ( maybe stock in3 or 4 gear ) I put a scan tool for code . What I got is p1031, p0340 and order fuel ratio related code . I have placed order for camshaft sensor .as soon as the part arrived I will put it to see if the problem will be resolved. if the part did not work I will place order for tokumbo gearbox. My question is will I program the tokumbo gearbox to work ?
Please I really need help on this You have not posted any transmission related code/s. The fault cam sensor is responsible for the limp mode. Replace the camshaft sensor and the Path should roar back to life. Make plans to replace the oxygen sensor except you enjoy high fuel consumption. |

Anyway, I will tread carefully and do plenty of more research. Don't mind them. Do your research and go for it. Remember we are talking about the world famous Theta II w/out Turbo GDI. Dare to be abnormal. |
