pics of the car will be helpful.

You should inspect for rust since origin is Canadian.

Finally 237439 miles is a lot for a recent car.

One of the reasons we get salvaged accidented cars is because of low mileage.


Pls i need contact of a good mechanic in Abuja from this platform, someone also conversant with the said car's AC system


Pls is kingreign abuja based ?

Thanks

Car Talk / No Battery Light by Eking: 10:04pm On Mar 14, 2020
Car is 2003 corolla

A metallic object mistakenly dropped into the open dc power outlet while ignition was turned on , radio immediately went off

Here's the situation now, car starts but, AC doesn't work, no power windows , gauges dont work , radio doesn't work.

I noticed that the battery light on the instrument cluster doesn't light up before or after starting the engine .

I'd like to have an idea what is wrong before i allow anyone touch the car... Nurey , gazzuzz, dru23 autojosh radautoworks heeelllpppp before someone lemonize my car

With all the faults you listed above, what else are you expecting?

Transmission? Manual gear is awesome and easy to fix. No. Cars are not lasting longer. If they do, manufacturers will go out of business. Some of them go as far as putting proprietary parts in cars that you can only get from their dealership.

Most importantly, maintenance is the key. Although some cars require TLC than others until the owner gives up. You want to put another 50k in a 2003 Camry before letting it go. Why? I mentioned 1990 300E still going strong and you can't wait to let go of 2003. In other words, you surreptitiously agreed with my points.

/

I did not replace the transmission I only changed the fluid. I want to let go after 100k miles (160,000 km) cos I want a change . The other parts I replaced are suspension parts which wore out cos of baf roads.

Also Toyotas are boring to drive hence me wanting to get an acura.

But I still stand that Toyotas are the most reliable.

How many of those 1990 300E's can you take on a 1000mile trip without knocking the engines . Abeg forget those old cars. There is a reason by Toyota and Lexus tops the reliability ratings.

The business model of Auto industry has changed. Everything has expiry date. They expect you to trade in a car after 100k miles and take a newer model. Cars are not made as sturdy and reliable as they used to be. The manufacturers are more interested in aesthetics, entertainment, comfort than reliability which is why they load newer cars with electronic gadgets, sensors, etc that drive owners nuts when they develop problems. You will see a 1990 Mercedes 300E still going strong but a Toyota Camry 2003 will look like something out of a dumpster. By the way, I don't think car manufacturers have Nigeria roads in mind when they put their cars together. Roads in Nigeria could be classified as off-road. Vehicles plying them should have reinforced suspension. But do they? No.
/

Not true.. Cars now last longer than ever . we now have engines lasting for hundreds of thousands of miles. I have put almost 50,000 miles on my 2003 Camry in 3 yrs. No major faults excepts shocks, brakes, stabilizer links, transmission ,radiator and brake flush. Just got on my second set of tyres . I intend to put another 50k Miles before I let go.

You can't beat a Toyota for reliability even though I intend to get an acura next

That car was never designed to use green coolant in its engine cooling system.It was designed to use pink(Toyota long life coolant premixed). And you bought it as tokunbo? Hmm. something is fishy here.

Yes ooo... Bought in February 2015.. Came with green coolant . thermostat and fans in factory setting.. I have a copy of the shipping documents sef

toyota uses toyota genuine longlife coolant, bright pink oem coolant, and that is what I recommend .

Buy 2 gallons, keep the extra as spare when you need it.


I bought the car as tokunbo.. Came with green coolant. I read its not good to mix green and pink coolants. At the same time I don't know any good Mech in Warri that can flush the whole green coolant from my car, that's why I wanted to continue with the green coolant
