It means a more efficient breaking system is lost and airbag protection is not going to happen when/if needed. Just drive safely with your mind on it. If it will console you, several cars are running on naija road with those 2 errors intact

Is that odo in miles or KM irrespective it seem quite high, but am not a V6 user so I may not have practical experience on this. However my Yaris 1.5 does 9km per litre.
That said you should fix that knock sensor as it could be a contributor to the fuel issue

I don't consider myself to be guru, but buying naija used car has string attached unless you are certain of the maintenance culture of the seller. However it's normally easier to get some naija used value/reliability in Toyota products, perhaps also because parts are readily available even if/when they breakdown but also because there are some high grade kazeems who still understand Toyota to some extent

I am ready so Fire on!



Morning,
I have a Camry 2009 2AZ
I have been having this issue for a while now.
Everything seems fine but when I switch on the AC idle drops around 520RPM and car starts shaking even when I switch to park or neutral I still feel the vibrations.
Car surges once in a while when at stop with AC on.
