My rx 350 windshield wash fluid container seems broken. Whenever I put water into it, it pours out on the floor. Where can I get another one and the possible cost?

Boss what of C300 4matic Benz 2015 model, it's a 2.4l in line 4 engine, how's the durability and maintenance of it. Is it a good one to go for whether through toks or neatly naija used
Those engines don’t do to well here in Nigeria, it had a design flaw and our fuel further accelerates its death leading to catastrophic failures ( most times the engine block is seriously affected and a replacement would be needed) and it isn’t cheap also, get a C400 instead

Car TalkRe: Lexus RX 300 (2003) Vs Toyota Highlander (2004) — Which Is Better In 2026 by Louiscars: 1:11pm On Feb 22
yomisabere:
Hi everyone,

I’m in the market for a reliable SUV with a budget of around ₦5,000,000 and I’m torn between two used models:

🚗 Lexus RX 300 – 2003
🚙 Toyota Highlander – 2004

I’d like to get your opinions based on experience, reliability, running cost, maintenance, parts availability, resale value, comfort, fuel economy, and daily usability as of 2026.

A few specific things I want to know:

1. Reliability & longevity: Which one is more dependable and holds up better over the years?
2. Maintenance & parts: Ease/cost of repairs and availability of parts in Nigeria.
3. Fuel consumption: Which is more efficient in city & highway driving?
4. Comfort & space: Ride quality, interior comfort, cargo space, seating comfort for long trips.
5. Usability in 2026: Considering age, tech, safety, and general practicality today.
6. Any common issues: What common problems should I watch out for on these specific models?

Also, given my ₦5M budget, what other SUVs or crossovers should I consider that would be a good alternative in terms of value, reliability, and usability today?

Some models I’ve thought about but open to suggestions:
• Toyota RAV4
• Honda CR-V
• Nissan X-Trail
• Honda Pilot
• Ford Escape
• Others?

Your insights and ownership experience will help a lot — pros, cons, tips on what to check before buying, etc

Thanks in advance! 🙏
Hello good afternoon sir.
Basically both the rx300 and highlander are great reliable vehicles if a good unit is found
Reliability and Longevity - both have very similar drivetrain the rx300 of the said year uses the 1mz engine while the highlander uses the 3mz, the 3mz engine is more recent and of-course would implement better technologies which would help with fuel economy and all

Maintenance- Honestly, no major difference, they are maintenance friendly, but please maintain them well because big part can be expensive

Fuel consumption- they’re both v6 engines and if you’re coming from a 4 cylinder you’d assume they consume more fuel but really they don’t for their size

Comfort/Space: the Lexus is more refined and has a better interior/ the highlander on the other hand wins on cargo space and some even offering third row options

Usability in 2026- they’re both old vehicles and of-course some things are inevitable such as high mileage, oil consumption ( common for both, but can be managed ) and wear and tear, but really they are both Toyota and can really last for a long time if properly maintained.
Finally between the two, I’d pick the rx300 only due to your budget, if you could increase it a bit I’d go with the highlander

For other vehicle choices to choose from I’d suggest the Honda CRV
- it’s has a very reliable drivetrain
- incase you’re really concerned about fuel economy, it uses a 4plugs engine while still giving you space and ride height you need from an SUV.
Please I sell cars also and can ultimately guide you in getting any vehicle of your choice sir tin can always reach out via this line/ WhatsApp - 08028992075

Car TalkRe: My Corolla 2006 Sport Needs Help by Louiscars: 6:39pm On Feb 20
Gentew:
I drive a 2006 Toyota Corolla Sport. The engine and transmission are in good condition, but whenever I switch on the air conditioner, the car feels heavy, sluggish and make some noise as if it’s climbing a hill. Once the AC is turned off, it drives perfectly.
What could be causing this, and what is the solution?

Please!!!
Did you work on the ac system recently, like maybe changing the compressor
