It's as simple as ABC for someone who knows what he is doing. The same 13 pin can be found in a Toyota camry 07 and above. What the people selling replacements do is to sell the gear with the recommended original atf WS and also give u someone to install.

If u insist u want ur mech to install, the seller won't be responsible for whatever complains that may arise or he might choose not to sell to u at all. The reason people install 10 pin is because it's cheaper than 13 pin.
Cheaper? Yes but not that alone.
Alright sir.

My tip is from the street.
I accept you if you don't accept me

What is the guarantee that 10pin will run fine?
It will run fine, but the pick up is slower than that of 13pin

The pick up won't be sharp like that of 13pin.

woodrow:
Ask yourself a question, if 10 pin was suitable, why did the manufacturer put a 13 pin in it?

Why go thru the stress of having to replace and redesign when u can simply replace and enjoy?

If you are the type that pays attention to your vehicle, you would notice that the 10 pin won't give u what the 13 pin would give to u.

Replace with a 13 pin, use the recommended transmission fluid and you should be fine.
What you don't know is that it is not about replacement only. It's more than that.

What guarantees you would be buying a good one...I don't think you know how sensitive this is.

Would've recommended he buys from Gazzuz.z but he's in asaba ...Man doesn't sell transmission he won't be the one to install. And e get why!


But op, you can talk to gazzu.z and persuade him to help you source for the 13pin gear, you might be lucky.

The 13pin the best replacement, but to avoid headaches, people tend to replace with 10pin.

ScepticalPyrrho:
This is exactly what the mechanic suggested


Asaba.

I don't mind replacing it with 13 pin. But the mechanic said a lot of persons are avoiding the 13 pin cos it is known to develop faults quickly.

ScepticalPyrrho:
Please fellow nairalanders and car experts my Toyota Camry 2005/6 (Big Daddy) model with no prior signs developed Gear Selection issue, after I had travelled for over two hours yesterday. Although I managed to arrive at my destination after a mechanic who assisted me advised that I changed the oil, only after I allow the engine rest for the night. So I checked the factory engine prescription and bought Type IV tramission fluid against the advise of the mechanic who wanted to get a cheaper oil.

The mechanic came back this morning to change the oil. Initially the car moved freely. But immediately I entered a major road the gear selection problem started again,
now. It wuld enter gear, but once d ride push forward for about 15 secs it wuld fail again. I would av to wait for it to rest again, den it picks when I start, again and again. Right now its like I have wait longer. The mechanic said I shouldn't bother to try to repair the gear I should just get a new one.

Although I've called another mechanic to check it. Na the matter I dey this morning. I really need your advice
That's most likely a 13pin transmission, won't advice you to repair/rebuild. Just replace.

If you don't have money for the 13pin, buy 10pin. Then have them convert it to work.

Where are you located?

Car TalkRe: What Type Of Suv Will Keep Sars Away From Me by Mayor555(m): 2:57pm On Sep 27, 2020
Eddee:
Any car will do, they'll stop you regardless. They have acquired an ungodly knack for recognizing potential prey. You need to do the basics like Heavenly.bang has stated, don't ever show fear in front of any personnel. Give them their regards, answer questions directed at you without flinching. Show composure when harassed, seek out the O.C and reason with him (learn how to avoid falling into the famous good cop bad cop trap). Ensure your car's paperwork is complete - this cannot be overemphasized.

Avoid tints (original permit or not) and any ricing that will mark you. I travel interstate a lot with a Mercedes W212 E Class, it's fancy, the first thing they look out for is tint and insist I wind up if glasses are down. Secondly, papers to check if the Ts are crossed and Is dotted. Thirdly, an ID. Then oga anything for the boys? once they are satisfied.

In all you do, buy a car you love - Police and EFCC will harass you even if you drive an old Beetle. I've read people asking you to befriend top military officers - it's actually easy, walk into any of the Officers Mess', show proof of character and you'll get a sponsor, pay about 40-50k for registration and well, The Nigerian Army/Airforce/Navy hates the Nigerian Police (see them as untrained, undisciplined, and inferior).
Eddee,

Boss you didn't get the gist...

Boss maybe you're living in more sane area of Nigeria.

I've seen numerous cases where you're just parked in a street and immediately they sight you're a young blood, they'll approach you rashly.

I've seen than two cases where these stupid people will draw their gun on one, by just merely sighting the car and seeing you're young. The two occasions are people who are dressed very responsibly (these people are my personal people).


So, this the kind of scenerio the op is trying to avoid.


Some cars actually draw their attention swiftly to young people. First hand experience.

If you can buy car bus, like sienna 2004-2010. Buy it and Waka jeje. Nobody will harass you.

Not all 2005 have steering control. Only limited Edition MUST have steering control
This is a better explanation..

Now I know better, I'll start checking them out.


@Sniper619

The car is actually 2005. It's evident in the VIN posted.

To confirm the model year of all these Japanese cars, you get it from the 10th number on the VIN.

And on this VIN, this Highlander is 2005

Why should he fem huh


It states clearly it’s an 04 Model huh it doesn’t matter if it is a late production undecided please correct it



Happy sale wink
Actually the VIN indicates it's 2005.

But the steering is saying otherwise.

I might be wrong.

A 2005 model should have steering control for the deck(stereo).
