Good morning house,

Defects Detected
1. Excessive Service Brake Imbalance Rear Axle
2. Service Brake Not Working (Rear Left)

Please how do I interpret the above faults?
Thank you.

Nah just oyinbo the person dey talk, check your brake is like some part have been bypassed.

Mechanic and low quality diesel will be your Achilles heel.

Under one year kazeem don dey advice you to convert to petrol

sonssyo:
First generation like UBA,

Make I no talk 🤐

jceesquare:
How does one be extremely careful in this context?
Not as if you made the transfer from your own end to the wrong account number

Don't leave money in banks

Reduce daily transfer limit to bearest minimum

If you gonna leave money in bank, make sure it is a first generation bank

jceesquare:
Was this issue ever resolved?

No, police collected 20k for investigation set, till today the man always say bank never answer am

Best bet is for one to be extremely careful nowadays jare.

advanceDNA:
100k...as at 2022.?? Wow...I missed out on good deal.... Sigh!!

I guess I always assumed Toyota engines and gears na die

Yes the engines and gear of toyota nah still die bros, I never absolve the brand of high handedness just that the IS250 engine was dirt cheap for its age then, I am not certain of the transmission price sha back then

advanceDNA:
Even with this dollar hike...400k??..... Okay oooo......

Yes 2022 4GR was 100k , 2gr was 350k while 1GR is around 600k. The 2.5L V6 4GR isn't expensive though then I heard its because it wasn't a sort after engine

advanceDNA:
For u to be thinking about Is250 ..u obviously have more than a few change to spare......so go ahead and buy...

.my own advice to anyone that wants to buy a car is.......can u afford the engine and gear when they decide to show u pepper.?

.....is250 engine shouldn't be less than 800k... Gear seff na die.....

. All other parts na small change..like 40k, 70k, 25k, 150k...

IS250 engine isn't that expensive should be 400 to 500k, 4GR is the cheapest engine for recent toyota cars, nah IS350 engine dey expensive.

Hello my Ogas,
Please help me recommend a good transmission oil for 2006 Sienna. I will do a solenoid swap/replacement/work on the transmission and will appreciate if a good transmission fluid is recommended here. Thank you in advance

2004 to 2006, toyota recommends Type T-IV

2007 to 2010, toyota recommends toyota WS

Check your transmission dipstick, the recommended fluid is engraved on the Iron

I learned mechanic work, I bought tools and I now fix my vehicle by myself. Also all my 9 children must learn handiwork that is beneficial, carpenter, plumber, bricklayer, welder, fashion design, hairdresser etc. So no need to patronize outsiders when we need services.

Money wey I don receive almost chop am finish how much be the money gan sef wey the man dey carry chest like ostrich

olumide4christ:
Thanks so much for your comments, sir...God bless you!

I have read about that oil dilution issue but some say that it occurs as a result of the cold climate in the West and it may be less of an issue over here due to our weather.

What's your opinion about that, sir?

If you are convinced it's a good buy, if you can get the other engine variants than the 1.5T even better.

olumide4christ:
Hello @nurey and all the other car gurus in this section, could you help me make a comparison between the Toyota Corolla 2016 and the Honda Civic 2016. I need to make a good decision.

Thanks 🙏🙏🙏and God bless you all for your inputs!

both cars a so identical and very close. Though civic trumps a bit in the fuel economy department, also the hatch design of the civic gives it an outward appeal compared to corolla.

Though user reviews talk about oil dilution in the 1.5L turbo engine of the civic especially frequent city drives. Apart from that, your choices are topnotch

I think it's better you hear about it from the horses mouth. If you are in Lagos mile 12 is the home of this buses maybe you can ask the drivers.

Sabo market too at Ore has this Van's plenty. The drivers will tell which is best, where they fix there's, part availability etc.

TrebleChamp:
Good afternoon car gurus, please what is your advice on buying a 2022 Honda HRV? How solid is the HRV compared to a Kia Seltos or Hyundai Creta of similar year? Thanks
cc nurey, kingreign and others...

You can never go wrong with honda, they are tested and trusted.

I don't know much about the creta and seltos but they are pretty more common on road than the HRV in lagos

OfficialHommy:
Please, does anyone know how much this car currently is - either used or Tokunbo? Honɗa Edix 2005.

I'd also love to know where I can get it.

That's Honda FRV check jiji you should find samples there

OctavianAC:
How about Mazda 626, like 2010 upward

No mazda 626 in 2010, best was 2002 to 2005 tops after that it's just mazda 6

If your area is prone to flood, the Aveo is a bad choice. Other than that, the Aveo is fairly reliable and will always get you from point A to B.

The ford is known for transmission issues. Also the EPS of that ford is expensive and not readily available I got this info a long time ago about this particular model year focus.

Try honda product with the money you have, civic or Accord

stevebankz:
Okay, thank you so much for this information, I casually asked a dealer about my gearbox price and I was told it’s 22pin and cost about 900k-1m naira. is this the same gear box

yes it is around that price, you know say toyota owners dey go through alot

Theflint1:
Okay, thanks. I ran it for like an hour parked and noticed nothing, then took it for a ride and still nothing, was a short ride sha, less than 3km to and fro.

That is not the issue then, you. Need professional assistance

My current vehicle doesn't use engine oil though

Theflint1:
okay, so like how many minutes should I leave the car running for before I'd observe any evaporation if the issue is from there?

Check your temp guage but I believe 20 to 30mins should do while parked

Theflint1:
Thanks chief, checked the engine oil dipstick, not milky white, but the radiator cover, I noticed a hole on the head of the radiator tank, and I don't think that hole was there before. I attached the image for reference...do I need to change the tank, or it can be fixed?

If that hole is your issue, once the engine gets to operating temperature, you will see water/coolant or steam escaping from there so run the test, if that is the issue, replace the radiator tank.

Interceding is what is currently happening in our world today. May Allah make us steadfast to just cause.

Amin
