Sent you email; no response. Called your numbers; not picking up. Check your email. |
I first heard this on the last Nigerian Idol; the performance was enough to make me eagerly wait for his next album. Very decent recording, though I liked it better hearing the live performance. |
US tv's receive NTSC video. Nigerian stations broadcast in PAL. If your device(s) like DVD or Decoder or game console has option in setting to change tv type to NTSC, do that. For regular stations, you must buy a video systems converter with inbuilt tuner. It has RF in for antenna, AV in for devices and AV out to the tv. They are not easy to find in Naija. Also get a step down transformer if you haven't got one already. Most likely, the voltage input for the tv is 110v. Naija supply is 240v. |
Is it in transit? When do project it'll be in Naija? VIN too please. |
As you asked, Scan done today had the following read outs: Engine diagnostics 16502 engine coolant temp sensors (G62) signal too high P0118-35-00 16684 random multiple cylinder misfire P0300-35-10th intermittent 16687 cylinder 3 p0303-35-10 misfire detected 16690 cylinder 6 P0306-35-10 misfire intermittent Transmission diagnostics diagnostics 18158 supply voltage too low. 09026 no data. Airbags diagnostics 01299 (J533) 45317 no data 08357 no data 00532 supply voltage B+ Instrument cluster diagnostics 0079 outside air temp sensors (G17) |
Thanks Siena. I'll be with the mechanic Tues/Wed. Will get all the codes from him on scan (he has the scanner). For loss of steering controls, I mean the Cruise controls, horn and radio volume/search buttons. The red illuminations under these buttons will be off too. |
Good day Siena, it seems you missed my post last week. Any help from your end? |
Good day Siena, Hope you can help here 'cos I've just about had it. 1) VW 2) Passat 3) 2.8L V6 4) Auto (tiptronic) 5) 2001 6) US 7) Front wheel PROBLEMS (and not limited to the below) a) At times, (25) you feel that the gear is not changing as it should. All of PRND432 illuminated. b) Most times, drives ok, but still all of PRND432 illuminated. c) All the time, a heavy/serious THUD is heard and felt when moving from stand still (especially at stop lights/ hold ups) and also on downshifts. Gear oil has been changed, brake solenoid ( ) changed, brake switch etc. Need to mention here that in attempts to fix this, gear/engine sitting has been worked on, gear brain box opened and other things the mechanic may not have the liver to tell me 'cos I raised hell of the repeated promises and same issue re-occurrences.d) Recently, Air bag fault pops up on info screen, even after scan check and wipe. Air bag never deployed before. e) (41) Feels like only left side of brake pads engaged. I have changed all 4 pads a few times f) After 2 hrs of rugged driving, brake pedal feels flat on ground, even though brake fluid is at full. No Break fluid leaks at all. g) Check engine light always pops back on (and stays on) less than an hour after oil change. h) Right back door lock does not work with central lock (windows work ok). i) Right side mirror does not auto-fold with control switch. j) Recently, a small fuse for the AC, horn and all the steering controls keeps burning out, with or without the AC on. k) Dash display is not steady, contrast changes on its own with some pixels/bits dark on not there at all. l) Water leaking into car (not from sun roof), floor carpets wet. All issues have been attempted to fix at least twice with separate mechanics Car handling and control is superb when all ok, but that's becoming far in between. What do you think? |
Please can you check for '05 -'07 Corolla S or XRS (manual or Auto, I don't mind either). |
Please, pix of the '04 to |
I am no expert but can say this: TRUE: Original parts are costly (like any other brand for that matter). TRUE: Fuel consumption is higher than the Jap cars but not THAT much. TRUE: Mechanics are uncomfortable just looking under the hood (u would too, but with amazement) However, for a car built between 2001 and 2004, It is a pleasure to look at (inside and out). Definitely a pleasure to drive (road handling and access to function buttons). Fuel consumption is made up by performance. And when you do get/fix original parts, you can forget about that part giving you another problem. The body is near rock-strong. Over-all durability so much better than the Japs. If your stomach is strong enough to handle the "higher costs" of maintenance, its a VERY alright car. It may take a little longer fixing issues in/around the engine because you have to remove the bumpers and radiators (V6 model). Seems the engine is slid horizontally INTO place from the front, not dropped in from top. You should just see my mechanic in action (thats where most of the expenses go- labour charge). It also helps if you are the only one using it. That way, you'll quickly notice any changes/abnormalities, limiting your trips to "engineer" to REGULAR servicing. Note the word REGULAR. Bottom line; only a mechanic who knows his onions (that of VW/Audi/Skoda) will make you enjoy the car. Wrong mechanic and you'll regret owning a car (and thats general advice for ANY car). More Jap mechanics out there, because more Jap/Korean cars out there. And thats because of massive marketing by Jap/Korean auto makers. Check the papers, European cars are'nt half as advertised as the Asian cars. (Thats another story). To be mind-safe, assured and well in comfort zone - Toyota/Honda Wild pleasure and unrestrained - need you ask?. JUST MY "NON-EXPERT" OPINION. |
Send pics, price and location to How long used in Naija?? |
Manufacture plates reads Feb 2000. How many seater?? Pics of the full sitting capacity please. Engine capacity also will be nice (to make decision). In short; post VIN. May call you before Friday if still available. |
Any pics?? |

Mr Kolbejoe, I noticed a Toyota Highlander in the pics. how much is it and are there other colors?? Also interested in the blue Nissan Xterra i saw in the pics. |
Like which cars have YOU seen and for how much Lets have an idea please.Is it open bidding or what?/ |
Is this car still available?? Contact me if yes |
firsty:AMAZING BELIEF. Unless 'others' are also non-existent, daarsat can't be rated. To think I check this thread everyday anticipating good news. I'm really disappointed thus far . Forget the media hype, nothing special coming from DAAR it seems. |
Any word/info on USB modem or express 54 slot data card for laptops ? |
