A lot of things except many exterior body parts are interchangeable, side view mirrors are interchangeable. A colleague at my former place of work had one, coming from a wrecked Toyota Matrix, he had his own personal junkyard. I know for sure that door handles are the same on his Matrix and Vibe.

As for HVAC, we learnt this the hard way when we thought we could just remove, insert and inshallah! Denso Compressors are plug and play on the 1ZZFE, but that's all where the good news ends. If you try to run a Toyota compressor on the vibe, you must export things like the expansion valve, AC lines, blower motor harness or something, evaporator, resistor, I think the Matrix's condenser might work but we didn't get that far during the surgery last year.

And oh, you need a competent mecho or the vibrations will end your tinkering career.

Boss are you saying vibe need a specialist mechanic and not regular Toyota mech?

Answer this question onuku, have you ever seen an eatery with a sign board saying Igbos, Yorubas or Hausas shouldn't enter?

It takes different form... But the message are always the same, some class of people are seen as inferior.

IN some street in Nigeria your are killing and robbing... And yet some people in Nigeria have army guiding their homes and street... Are we not the same Nigeria... Shouldn't all life matter?

You see am... And we complain when China treat us as animal

drips8:
The Chinese are the biggest hypocrites, they scream racism when they are discriminated against in the west but they don't mind doing the same to foreigners living in China. The same chinese banned foreign companies from operating in China but still they go around the world selling their own products to foreigners.

This is how the world is... It runs in disharmony and imbalance... If you study even our society here in Nigeria, we do the same to each other, it is part of the creator's design, we can only try and hide it... But when time at tough it will all show

weyreypey:
Don't be misled. Matrix has a lot of components that differentiates it from the Vibe.

What are the many differences boss... Use to think it is just the body design and HVAC

I doubt

Thanks kingreign... Will follow your advise

kernniejay:
I think you also need to have photographs of moment when the old engine is being removed by the technicians and moment when the new engine is being installed to the car.

So make him also include photography of when he go do affidavits?

pressplay411:
"I jam" means "having accident" in pidgin.
Then again as OP explained, it could also imply "meeting something suddenly."

You mean like a pole or stationary vehicle... Personally I don see anything wrong with the name... Ijam sound nice

KINGreignn:
What car is this?

It's actually a very simple fix.

The crash sensor in the front driver side on the chassis rails or beside radiator (depending on configuration of your toyota/lexus) needs to be replaced or if it's wires snapped, it should be fixed properly.

The second code means your steering spiral spring has snapped and would need a replacement with a good well aligned unit.

Thanks boss... Can I get this at ladipo? Pontiac vibe 2005

Smatz:

I want to get camry 2001 drop lite
Should i go for v6 or v4

i4 for better fuel economy

V6 for better performance (speed and power)

The choice is yours

Honda is good for people that stick to manufacturer fluid and maintenance schedule... I will always prefer Honda to Toyota... A small price to pay for a better car interior, drive experience and others

With all this many stew and cray fish wey the guy don out for the car... The thing go dey catch men them eye... Just make sure say you get comprehensive insurance and good security, you are good to go

Prius is used very well in yankee for uber.. Seems very rugged and fuel efficient ..

Most Nigerians can not maintain normal cars.. And with hybrid cars, you can not joke with maintenance when it comes to oil change and coolant , you cant treat the car like a normal car maintenance. You cant say I just manage like this or that ...

Once the engine starts giving issues ,forget the car it is the beginning and ending of the car.. And most importantly very few mechanics can fix hybrid, and the few that can fix it you will be at their mercy at most times .. I dont want to be at anybodys mercy at all especially when am paying you to do your job ...

My advice don't get it... especially if you buying from coparts .. You taking a big risk and you don't know what is really wrong with the car.. Hybrid cars are usually very cheap at the auction.. Most people avoid it

Thanks paddy me

obaile:
