The pursuit of perfection... Living with the Lexus ES 330 is easy. Understand that statement, and you understand the essence of this entry-luxury sedan. The ES 330 may be the smoothest, quietest car in its class. It's easy to drive smoothly, keeping passengers comfortable and making you- the driver look like a pro. The 3.3-liter V6 engine and five-speed automatic transmission are refined and responsive. A supple suspension gives it a civilized ride on rough city streets, beat-up freeways and poorly maintained back roads typical of Nigeria. The brakes are easy to modulate for smooth stops in everyday driving. The ES 330 emphasis is on convenience and comfort. The seats are comfortable, the leather-trimmed upholstery is nice, and the rich-looking interior is accented in wood -toned bright-work. Its controls are straightforward and easy to operate. The excellent sound system is heavenly to the ears. True to the Lexus legend, refinement, quality, fit and finish, and attention to detail are evident throughout. You see, feel, and even hear the quality. It can be heard in the solid sound the doors, trunk and hood make when they're closed. This is the Lexus freshened exterior appearance for the 2005 model, I call it 'The breeze' Notable features: Ultra smooth engine and transmission Remote start system perfect suspension( No rattles ) Mortuary standard AC Memory seating for driver and passenger Clean Interior and Exterior. Call 07068335918 for details. Price 1.75 mill asking

GAZZUZZ:Case closed. If you are to go this route, pls take proper note of the engine in your car(I mean the 4 cylinder variant) The k24 engines are of two types, Z2 and Z3. This is important because they have different ECUs and different transmissions that have different ratios. |
GAZZUZZ:He has scanned already. No codes according to him. But I think he might need a diagnostic equipment and not just a code reader as codes might be pending. I think you may have a defective valve body, from a mechanical standpoint. What kind of fluid have you been using? And when last was it changed before this started happening? Any impact that affected the transmission area? And how are you sure it is skipping second? Maybe it is forcefully engaging second? Skipping gears might bring up gear incorrect ratio codes. |
Congrats bro. I had a similar issue with a 2009 Honda accord i owned in 2015( sold now) Driving one day, then bam! battery light came on(wetin happen?) lucilky i was close to the house so i managed it home. The next day i 'limped' the car to Ikoku, replaced with another alternator... same s.hit. Na so i start diagnostics for there o..Luckily there was a rewire who was humble enough to let me work with him on the matter.Luckily i had The accord service manual pdf on my tab , naso i begin jack o! We later found out that there was an earthing from the ECU to a specific terminal of the alternator (cant remember whcih one again)that was open. we then traced the wire to the ECU and found the harness was ok. the alternator was then earthed directly from the terminal and boom! battery light went off and car could run with battery terminal off. It was later discovered that The ECU had been flooded with water and later dried( car was bought Naija used).So the ECU was obviously the culprit.( this later explained the harsh gear engagement and annoying engine vibration i was getting from the car since the day i bought it) Replaced ECU and car became fine till i sold it. |

Mrtesso:Yes sir. truth is that most conversions that we witness are usually poorly done, to cut corners. This was done very well. the only giveaway was the dashboard. |
Mrtesso:Yes sir. easy to convert since it is automatic. The shift knob and lever can be swapped to a LHD one. |
Readonee35L:Boss, Kindly google up 2008 Toyota Aurion(Chassis code XV40), and confirm the pics of what you see with what the OP has posted here for sale. I am not wrong sir, neither are you. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Aurion_(XV40) |
1st pic is the LHD dashboard (very rare) 2nd pic is the regular camry we know( which was used)
|
Mrtesso:The dashboard gives it up. see below the dashboard of a 2008 Toyota Aurion( The name this car started life as). Note the wood trim as it flows from the doors to the dashboard. Also note the center console. This dashboard is very rare to find in LHD configuration. Now compare with your usual Camry dashboard and see the difference( second picture). This Camry for sale was a dead giveaway from looking at the door trim flowing to the dashboard. The window control switches was simply swapped to that for LHD configuration. If i was to convert this car, i would ensure that not a single trace of the RHD configuration is left.( i would have swapped the complete interior door trim for the two front doors). However the conversion was well done cosmetically. The body work was what i was referring to as crappy.

was this car formerly a hybrid? |
horlermesheye:Keep lying for Africa. |
1.2 million sir. And I assure you I am a serious buyer No stories. I pay immediately and i arrange transport to Port Harcourt. |
EkeneElectrons:It is there for every one to see.Bye. |
7 months used and the car is already this crappy? Smh.. By the way, this ride has been converted. The dashboard was changed due to inability of sourcing the LHD equivalent.... |
looks like a Subaru to me |
