cardoctor: I think the 3Ltr V6 Supercharged engine is a bit too small for the size and weight of this vehicle. A 6Ltr V8 supercharged unit would have been more appropriate.

. From the engine specs, its like installing a keke napep engine in a Boeing 747, however, now adays, even a pencil sharpner could produce much power and torque to move a dead planet.Hope they installed good chargers to boost the powers... Besides, hope their known Achilles heel is eliminated? |

IdaraCHODB: Buy original bulbs/lamps from the likes of Philips: http://www.usa.lighting.philips.com/products/automotive
Philips claims their headlamps can outlast the car, lasting up to 12 years and come to think of it save for cost of importation, they don't cost a fortune!
or Osram
https://www.sylvania.com/en-us/products/automotive/Pages/default.aspx
I have personally had to import them for my personal use, you might also have to
Maybe you bought fake bulbs, who knows.
Upgrade from Halogen to LED or maybe even HID or buy Halogen from known brand names, don't buy second hand bulbs or bulbs imported for mass sales maximum profit instead of for their quality!
Use the product selector, input your car details and you are good to go
There is one other major LED manufacturer from Taiwan, their name begins with an E, i can't recall and i am a bit too lazy to search for you.
Just avoid all those cheap Chinese clones Most aftermarket LED bulbs shine brightly but don't travel far. Except they've been designed to do so. How can he modify HID or LED on his Carina e is another question. OP, I know Carina E has glass headlamp case, why not remove it, check it if its dirty, dash some water and mild detergents into it to dissolve the dirt and layers of dust, find where the dust gets inside, and seal it off. If your shiny reflector is faded, buy another genuine OEM headlamp (tokumbo if possible). If your headlamp is fake china, buy genuine PHILIPS, I use PHILIPS on my HL highbeams and its even brighter than my SILVANIA bulbs on my Lowbeams. If your headlamp isn't aiming properly, wait till dark, park 5 metres from a wall and align your headlamp aim. If all these don't work, go the kazeem way, install a damn relay.  |

RIP sweetheart Why are you so senseless, tribalistic and pessimistic? Oh I guess, you're one of those immatured NL kids, better grow up and change that negative perception for you don't know where life will take you to and you never know who's gonna be your destiny helper. @ the story, May the sol of the departed rest in peace, may God grant everyone who's affected by this loss the fortitude to bear the demise of the lady.

NoQualms1: My Toyota Corolla 2004 model has been showing 'check engine' light for more than a week now and whenever the car has been parked for hours and I start it, it makes a shrill noise which is worse when AC is on. I scanned it and the result showed
1. SENSOR WIRE 1 2. SENSOR WIRE 2 3. CHECK ENGINE FAN BELT
Please, what could be the problem?

1Emmy: Thanks for the suggestion. My main concern is the p0355 and p0353, that is the ignition Coil problem. Forget about the catalyst converter. Since the original one was stolen the the one I bought from ladipo market has refused to work well. My vehicle's sound is ok, the fuel consumption is ok. So am OK with exhaust. P0355 refers to the coil pack, cables or sparkplug in bank 5 of your engine, same refers to P0353 which refers to bank 3. However, if all is checked, swapped and none bad, check your ECU. As for your Catalyst, its never about your vehicle's sound, its about your engine. If your catalyst matrix is broken and blocks your exhaust line, it could result in a catastrophic engine blowout. Don't be deceived, its not about your MPG or sound, but then, its none of my business. Cheers! |
