I was actually using a camry before going for the Corolla but I must say that the difference is 7up. This car is rugged and mine was accidented before I bought it (though I wasn't aware, found out later) but still the car is pocket-friendly.

welcome on board:
TOYOTA - Good thinking, Good product

Exponental:
the indicators will be permanently switched on.

walahi,
even newly constructed roads are not left out ..... our roads are worst.

BUT: this osun state wahala is much, no salary no road... went to Ikirun via Oshogbo, the roads were nothing to write home about.
on sunday going toward Ife, saw this clean Jaguar (own by a chief/oba) d driver opened the hood didn't know what to do, the car bumped into a pothole guess the system now crashed.
I believe the sensor will help a lot, good innovation

Raymie:
This 1 is beyond comparing apples and oranges. Na banana, coconut and cucumber comparison b this.

we need to consult the oracle.

delaw4u:
I want to every thing about the two the resale value,why did buyer prefare camry to passat

Mr, you are in Nigeria right?
if yes,
going by your set criteria, would advice you go for the Camry 99 times you are faced with such options before you consider Passat.

lomomike:
The guy just copy and paste.

you no nice, just cast the guy like that

CRV now,
parts are pocket friendly, easy to maintain, good ground clearance, strong body frame.

lomomike:
Pathfinder own just tire me. Why didn't they copy 4runner that went from badazz to 'badazzer'?

lolz

Bossforeva:
that of honda too.

I wonder what is happening to them all, when I saw the new pathfinder, from the front view I was like, this should be a Nissan Rogue or another Nissan product behold it was a PATHFINDER! I just kept mute.
may be a pathy for the women to go for shopping and pick up the kids

this there new design is something am still trying to get used to. from corrola, yaris, Camry, Avalon, highlander etc they have very similar front design, and to me its not really cool.
IMO the hilux should continue to have similar front as the 4runner if they don't have better design. this one looks too feminine, I feel it is loosing d ruggedness, but the rear still ok

peterjero:
Whether people talk or them no talk, Toyota is the highest selling brand of car in the world, be it USA, Australia etc... Toyota went to USA and beat the likes of cadillac, ford, gmc, jeep/chrysler to their game. And we Nairalanders still think Toyota isn't reliable, the world is fully of average people and Toyota isn't the cheapest brand yet the biggest car brand. Does that not say they are good. By the way I drive a Camry and benz c200 2000 model. I must add this nothing beats my Camry, 3s fe that car has done 10 years still starts with one touch, AC works, the list is endless

I wonder what part of Nigeria most nairalanders stay, yabbing Toyota like its rubbish.
am a testifier to Toyota's slogan: "good thinking, good product"



bt I want to ask o,
of what use are all this gadgets in cars when you are not sure if the car won't fail you.
NOTE: if its Toyota's so called blandness that makes it very reliable and stand test of time, I pray they continue been bland. IMO

guess another victim of TROPICALIZATION
MR,
you are not communicating,
what are the specifications of what you changed, moreover when the mechanic asked you to change them was it by assumption or he scanned it, what type of oil did you use to service the gear.
calm down and type what people can comprehend, am sure your car will be fine.



NOTE: sometimes when people are advice not to go for some cars as 1st car, they feel they are been deprived.

sultaan:
They don't have problem with NCS harassment in the north but in south you blend in with a toyota rather than stand out in a bentley they will even come to your house.

Show me this ever happening in the north

u nailed it.
I have witnessed a similar case.
we r Nigerians (always trying to cut corners), nobody will tell me all those exotic cars in the north have complete papers. even police/road safety wahala can't b compared to the one we experience here.
I just pity the said man in the video over 300m naira almost lost.

seems it was bovi involved in d crash
while basket mouth was commiserating.

I don't think dere could be injuries from diz type of crash if he is on seatbelt.

if hr sustained, quick recovery.




BT basket mouth wan reach 90yrs.... how will he b lykself

Bossforeva:
sometime tis good to mention what you bought exactly...
How is ur beetle now?
https://www.nairaland.com/905089/please-advice-need-car-n30000

did he eventually go for that car?

a lot have to be put to consideration, part of which is the type commonly used in the area you really want to use it.

I don't think the engine is running.
the tachometer is on zero.

if you are not yet perfect in driving, have some one else snap while you drive the car, then pressing the brakes.

that was what ZIMDRILL required from you.

disloman:
U r very intelligent,not like some.

thanks.

chidooh1:
. I have learnt something new and important today so, winding down on highway takes more fuel even higher than when you have AC on.

yea, he is right, physics. the air entering will be holding back, like some one wearing agbada and running, you know the wind will blow out the cloth and it will be holding him back, whereas on a smart cloth....easily.
more over, am not always comfortable the wind blowing at high speed.

SmartChoices:
Bros am always particular about facts...

if you really are, you would have talked about the current trend in this section (tropicalization)

SmartChoices:
Well for a boring interior the only consolation is speed to forget the bland environment....
In a Benz every ride is a vacation......so why rush through a well deserved vacation?

u didn't even wait for me to finish posting.

na joke I dey now, u no even sabi comedy self

SmartChoices:
Bro how far?
Scion GMC Chevy before Mercedes! Well its a matter of perspectives.... And no golf 3.... No Nissan...eyop I hail

what sort of perspective is that, thank God lomomike has found out for us that it is nothing to go by.
BT u scarce o, I dey OK.... *still dusting anything with Benz badge*

take diz orijin, u too sharp

abatically n adanny01 you guys are just giving this guy unnecessary attention..... he doesn't know what he is saying, from cooling system to everything rubbish! (iranu, abasha)
no car ever made that the ball joint can't pull of, Toyota 4runner(u know how strong it is) it experiences it. my dad's corrola den, d ball joint was replaced with Renault's own and d shaft too.
when it comes to Honda, alot of fake parts, then most people who use it don't take note of such signs. if u care to know, a friend of mine uses a Camry (pencil) n d ball joint pulls off (abt twice dat am aware of) den another uses EOD, it has never experienced such.

I know the more people try to enlighten you the more you spill those folly, abi how do Honda users TROPICALIZE their ball joint?

wen buhari turn love doctor?

auhanson:


In nigeria, Nissan is labelled bad because it is affordable. This same nissan will enter any jungle and come out just like land cruiser or any other suv.

Op don't wait to be faulted another time..Watch where you pick the spring and examine it very well, also inspect the spring with your own naked eyes. Don't let same mech replace this for you again.

Lastly but not the least, watch your weight Just joking oh

lolz
I think op should reduce speed wen approaching pot holes..... I lost my front spring when returning from abuja few months ago, it was in the night.... sped past a pot hole.

TRADELYN:
We rejoice with you today as you mark your special day.
Enjoy your Day...happy celebrations!!!

thank you

GAZZUZZ:
Word!

You might be shocked engine is still prestine! There was no thermostat for tonychristopher to remove

lolz, DAT guy matter no b 4 here

diz one na resurrection not restoration

Chucky234, lemme believe your account has bin hacked, diz could have not come out from you.

I just pity those you are misleading, lomomike enjoy your cars jawe..... m enjoying my pencil and muscle without *tropicalization*.
d pencil is 5yrs counting, d paint is intact just bumper bruises from okada n Micra... aside DAT nothing, recommended tyre size, oil everything, I bought it from UK 95k miles.... now on 230k miles, so tell me more.
d muscle is still recent, but its also serving.

greenhulk:
Op ur knowledge about tropicalization is half baked, not complete.

Nigeria is so HOT and we all need to embrace the act of tropicalization. If u really wanna tropoxalize ur car, then u have to remove the thermostat, let ur fans spin non stop, change to double cell radiator, remove ur catalytic converter because it is not needed. Then remove all ur 02 sensors (both upstream and downstream). Then disconnect ur idle air control valve, if possible convert to caburator. Oh u also need to remove that oyinbo tyres because they are not meant for our weather. Don't mind all those car manufacturers, they don't know what they are doing. If they reccomend 195/55/r15, u have to change it to 225/70/r18. And if they recommend 33psi tyre pressure, u have to change to 60psi because our road is harsh.

And don't forget to always use 20w50 motor oil. Those oyinbo dey reccomend 5w20, shey dem no know say our weather is too hot? How can we use that light oil in this hot weather? It won't work.

Now that is some BAD A$S TROPICALIZATION.

and this is what I call full tropicalization!!! 100% efficient ....

GAZZUZZ now we all see that kazeem( tonychristopher ) is now nairaland.

fanex, chill out, what do you stand to gain from all this?

@OP, nissparts is your best bet, but 3 times is much o, I know people who use same SUV as that but I have not heard them complain about this issue. you can also follow auhanson's advice about the springs been expired, buy as for your weight ......... *lips sealed *
