Get a Good Electrician and the would scan vehicle and even maybe remove the airbag sign,it may be due to some electrical issues

Car Talk / Re: Tyre Pressures: Save Yourself! by Drcentrist: 6:46am On Aug 12, 2020
Piyke what do you pump a Toyota corolla written 30psi as recommended but tyre can take 44psi,I normally pump to 35psi,what's your suggestion?
Piyke:
Imagine having almost 56psi in a tyre that should have 35psi. I can't imagine the number of accidents that are caused by incorrect tyre pressures in this country.

Do you know your tyre pressures?

Your Answer is correct ,I use that,but on a thread here I saw some dude quote a mileage and he copy cated google map,hence my question because Toyota corolla got a bashing there.

why are you stressing yourself over distance accuracy of a map? Every vehicle has a trip meter that can be used to calculate the distance from journey A to B utilize that with your fuel guage or litres of PMS bought and calculate your fuel economy.[/quote]
Car Talk / Re: Thread For Toyota Users And Lovers by Drcentrist: 6:51am On Aug 07, 2020
So I read someone put Toyota to shame by quoting his liters and google map distance spent to a destination and it falling behind the MPG for Toyota corolla,on the highways google map destinations always adjusts and what is written 590km is actually 650km plus bad roads etc.
Do you believe in Google map distance for Nigerian Highways?Toyota lovers let's talk
Car Talk / Re: Is Toyota Corolla Really The Best by Drcentrist: 6:39am On Aug 05, 2020
Where is the trip pictures &please explain how you bought 60l of abj pH road,thought it should be like 50l,thirdly was your car packed with passengers and luggage,if yes then how was the handling for the Toyota thread.Thanks
gly2ken:
There is this burning argument about which is the best car. Yesterday 1st of August 2020, I traveled with my Toyota Corolla 2004 model from Abuja to Port Harcourt. The journey took about 12 hours. I use only 60 litres of petrol for the duration of the journey. For a similar journey we used about 100 litres for a Peugeot 301. Considering a journey of 678 Km this is the fairest deal of fuel consumptions. Corolla is King.

Who has driven a Toyota 05/06 with a loaded trunk with luggage's and filled with passengers,how is the acceleration and handling on the highway
Car Talk / Re: Thread For Toyota Users And Lovers by Drcentrist: 7:37pm On Jul 31, 2020
Then the corolla is your best bet,because the controls are easier to understand for elderly people too
cue64:
both are around same price range for me , I almost bought the Camry till someone told me about the corolla, I plan to drive for a while and give to my mum so I need the one that won’t give her much problems
Car Talk / Re: Thread For Toyota Users And Lovers by Drcentrist: 6:41am On Jul 31, 2020
Everything depends on your budget,if you would go,go for the corolla
cue64:
House please Between Corolla 2010, and Camry 2008 which would you recommend for a young man?? In his mid twenties
Car Talk / Re: Thread For Toyota Users And Lovers by Drcentrist: 7:57pm On Jul 30, 2020
Corolla is voted in many car review as reliable,05/06 is a cool car ,my experience within city limits is its fuel economy and been a good runabout car.Get it if you want,let the Ac be seen by a Good AC tech
Samconcepts:
I am about buying the 2009 Toyota corolla but someone mentioned that it has AC issues which appears to be a factory error, and can't be resolved by changing components.

I have already used the corolla 2003 model and wanted upgrading to 2009 since the 03 to 07 models have same mould. I was initially thinking of getting the 05/06 model.

Someone please advise me on what decision to take cos I have a slightly lean budget.

epitomeofgrace:
Between Toyota avalon 2011 and toyota camry 2013 which is the best pls. Thank you.
Toyota Avalon is roomy and has a grand feel to it whilst at the back but it is somewhat close to the Ground,whilst Camry is a little bit higher than Avalon from the Ground,but both performs well.

Thanks for the reply,you just made me check all papers including custom duty,loaded trunk means with the trunk filled with luggage and about 4 adults,looking at the acceleration and handling
