Sir gazzuzz, please is Toyota avensis good buy?

Cos of I see people going for more Corollas, Camrys but none talking about avensis.

Is there a particular issue with avensis that's Making people avoid it?
Avensis is not common in the American market, which makes its parts a little scarce.

Good day every one! Recently i entered a ditch with my car while on speed and it broke my exaust, i was able to weld it successfully, and the very loud noise stopped. But i noticed that anytime I want to take off, i hear this vibration sound (when I bring down my windows, i dont hear anything. But when my windows are up, I hear the sound) what could be the culprit?

The vibration still has to do with your exhaust system change technician

Check this device on the engine, ensure the harness is installed properly, if it is installed properly and still giving issues, then you can replace it. Also check the wire to be sure it is fine

Damn.
My elder broe was robbed last two weeks at gunpoint. He's a daredevil {though a banker) but he succumbed, and I was like, if you can be robbed, then nobody is saved. They collected his phones and other things. It's crazy.
Lagos will definitely pay a deaf ear to it until a politician is killed then they'll wake up to the call. That was how crime in Lagos survived for about 27yrs before Fashola in his wisdom and intelligence was able to contain it.

It's not the duty of the Nigeria police st stop and search to ask for proof of ownership or proof of purchase from the previous owners.

Only exception is if they are investigating a stolen car.

As a matter of fact, those documents aren't supposed to be with you in the car....when you've already registered the car in the car licensing office in your name.

Na "educated" Nigerians be our problem for this country.

Do you reckon I did not?
Im only saying the benefits of having ur plate number engraved outpass the disadvantages of having it done!

SOLUTION. instead of engraving the plate numbers which are not a permanent feature of the vehicle , the vehicle VIN vehicle identification Number aka chassis Number should be engraved .

The VIN is a permanent feature that will always remain with vehicle, and can be easily blacklisted on the internet or in licensing authority if vehicle is stolen .


The VIN should be engraved and not the plates on a vehicle .

I will have to disagree with you on this o be, Even in London the police encourage us to do so, they even engrave names Id and smart water on Bikes themselves, I have seen them set up stores for this in city centres.If you live within or a square mile near any major car part mkt pls engrave cos your car body parts will be mined.The thieves know no one will buy a part with numbers on them ie side mirrors,door handle grills wheels etc

Gazzuz I had an ugly experience regarding this issue .The car I bought was engraved with wrong plate number . I am still battling with the matter ...The owner just fixed a plate number meant for his former car without proper documentation ...he went ahead and engraved same number on the car...when you check the plate number on the data base...it will turn out a different car ,different chassis number
You didn't do your checks bro. As a standard i run plates on sys to verify vin on each sale.

You can always replace all vehicle accessories to solve the problem

A couple of times i have gone to do vehicle purchase inspections and seen cars with boldly written plate numbers on all glasses , car accessories like headlamps and body chromes , handles rear lights etc, even seen them on the interior accessories too. Vehicles that have their plates engraved to the body parts are actually less likely to be vandalized or stolen .

Most times i see a fantastic ride with all systems GO, but sadly because of the plate number engraved to the vehicle , the client is not interested in it. Reason being,

1. Most people want to pose with their newly acquired vehicles as freshly registered foreign used cars, different plates engraved on the car will defeat that aim.

2. The number of document they would have to be presented at a check point will include proof of legal purchase from previous owner plus all documents for present ownership. Making police checks longer then usual.

3. The cost of replacing all the engraved parts , if they do intend buying the vehicle and removing all traces of the previous plates.


In general the 2nd hand value of a car drops drastically when car is engraved.

Car TalkUpsurge In Vehicle Theft At Gun Point In Lagos Is Worrying by GAZZUZZ(op): 5:18pm On Jan 20, 2021
I was in a police station today to get an incident report for my accidented car, i was a bit early and had to wait till the DTO'S section was available.

While waiting i saw a familiar face , at first we didn't recognise each other because of the facemasks , but i needed fresh air and i was alone under the mango tree and took it off, that's when he recognised me.

We greeted and he informed me he came to make a report of his car that was stolen at gun point, he also mentioned that as he was there several cases of vehicles stolen at gun point had also been reported same today.

Crime is at an all time high and every one should pay close attention to personal safety and security.

Have your vehicle insured comprehensively at the prevailing replacement cost (not the Nigerian used value)

Ensure you have a tracker installed , and ensure you have a third party than can you can always call ( memorised number ) that can track and disable vehicle .

Do not stay out late with easy to sell car brands (Toyota's, lexus)

If for any reason there is an attempt to take your vehicle do not resist, it's just a car, your life is more valuable.

Most of the cars stolen had lone occupants, so it's safe to say there is safety in numbers.



May God help us all.[/color]

still want to thank you again because of the advice you gave me about O2 sensor check engine error, one mechanic almost charged me 40K to replace my catalyst that was working but just disconnected under the car like you advised after I showed you the error code. Thanks lot, I appreciate.

My 2011 Camry averages 12 to 14MPG, is this expected?
If you live in Lagos, this does not apply to you. Our traffic is legendary.

We finally bought a tokunbo engine and we regretted it. Engine making funny noise after installing it, then we called the seller because it is within the 1 week warranty. We returned the engine, seller checked and discovered a broken chain guide, and a cutting mark on the "camshaft" close to the vanous, not sure of the name. Well, we had to open the our own bad engine too, we resurfaced the top cylinder, change head gasket, change our timing chain guide too, water pump is still very okay, engine block is fine, but we still changed the rings of the pistons. Engine roars again. I love it this way, if it serves me for a year, I'm okay.

Gazzuzz should stop giving warranty on engines, o risky.
I have reduced the length of guarantee on used engines after the Baba40 incidence .
