I don't even know what to say to u. How am I dishonest? If u are into car business u should know that all tokunbo cars have grades and that determines the prices. This car was bought last year and has never been registered in Nigeria.

Price is low for quick sale
if i import a car to Nigeria February and drive it till December and decide to sell it after driving it for over 10months is that still tokunbo, So many Tokunbo cars on this site that have been flogged and worked more than Nigerian used self, Make God help person choose right Motor...

You feel so?
I don't feel so, many Camry V6 owners don't feel so, Toyota don't feel so. Test and see the epic sweetness of a Camry v6, you'd never go near a 4 cylinder again. cheesy

i have driven lot's of v6 07-12 camry's
They are not very fast compared to honda or nissan's of same year
the cross tour moves better than the venza i'v driven both, But the venza is quick if you put of traction control, mine is always of tho

Don't know if this would be helpful but i remember my Camry 2.2 having a similar issue where it doesn't cool during the day especilly when the sun is very hot and sometimes the AC light starts to blink while it blows hot. I filled the gas, changed the condenser and checked for leakage but the thing continued. The solution was just changing the drier which had been clogged by impurities and that was it. Don't know if this will work for a 2010 Venza anyways.
mayor2013:
Then run a scan on your climate control unit to check for fault error (s)
Thank You very Much For your info,
I appreciate ,
Car is with the engr , And a complete engine tune up has been done,
And the ac has been worked on Too,
car will be delivered this evening,
I'll give a feedback
Car TalkRe: Is The Infinity M35x Very Thirsty Or This Particular One Is Faulty by Readonee35L(op):
kingreign:
Why would you compare a sports sedan to a full sized station wagon in speed?
Well have you forgotten that infiniti is Japanese BMW?
It's normal for infiniti to gulp fuel.
My QX4 was a perfect example.
What are you saying
Okay Let's Balance it,
a 2010 Camry Se V6 With 2GR-FE also produces 268HP like the Venza
But does it mean this Camry SE v6 will Outrun The M35X Because it's also sport sedan
No Toyota V6 sedan is a Match For Nissan's V6.

As for that saying It's normal for infiniti to gulp fuel Is Totally wrong,
what makes an infinity different from other car's , i have driven a maxima 05 with vq35 in the past and i know other nissan's also share that engine so why do you think The infinity should be gulping and the other one's being normal
10mpg to 13-mpg is not proper for a v6 no matter how bad it want's to gulp
Car TalkIs The Infinity M35x Very Thirsty Or This Particular One Is Faulty by Readonee35L(op):
i have been driving a friend's Infinity M35x for like a week Now,
It has 3.5L 303 hp VQ35HR V6

Now based on performance This Engine is faster than Toyota's 2gr-fe (faster than v6 venza by far) ,3mz-fe or Even Honda's J30 or the j32 Sport in the acura's or the J35 08 -16 accord's,
I mean it's performs like a v8 makes me remember me remember the Dodge charger

But she guzzles fuel Makes me wonder if it's faulty or the fuel is leaking, Car performs perfect No trouble codes,
with manual calculation i get like 11-12mpg
On board computer Says 10.1mpg

Tho i drive this car with a heavyfoot, The performance is superb but it shouldn't be that bad on Gas For a V6
Buying the fuel is not the wahala but is the car fine?

Car TalkRe: Z by Readonee35L(op): 2:53am On Feb 16, 2016
earthrealm:
you are most likely low on refrigrant, hook up a set of guages and u will see so urself..
then the big question is where is it leaking from...
thats what the techs need to locate, it must b a serious leak for it to go bad just 1 day after refill....
the earlier the beta, u will most likely loose ur lubricating oil , and the compressor will sieze, if you continue driving n topping up refrigrant
leuelliot:
Possible causes of rough idle and flashing cel.
Worn spark plugs,
Clogged/clogging fuel filter
Clogged/clogging fuel strainer
Dirty air filter and maf
dokilolo:
I will suggest u fix the blinking cel b4 looking@ d ac......I might b wrong, but d cel nd idle issue cn affect d ac nd cos it 2 blow cold wen u accelerate and nt so cold at idle cos d rpm is nt maintained @ ryte level@ idle.
again am no car tech bt it happnd 2 a friends car nd different car ac tech pointed in d direction of compressor, ac recharge, filter nd othee tinz. he also had rough/low idle though his own issue was due 2 iacv .after he cleaned d iacv d ac dy cool pass freezer at idle
I booked an appointment with an Engr Tomar,
Thing's to Be done
Tune Up , Spark Plugs, Oil Change, e.t.c

The Ac techie said something about Refrigerant and leakage...

Car Is Cool
The Venza is not really my choice because i never had a thought of buying it ,I would have opted in for the 2012 Srt8 Hemi Like i had in plan but i now have my eyes on the 2015 hellcat, By God's grace that's the next move we should be getting her soon , but i needed a sporty car to move with for the little time i just had to pick the Venza.

but i don't really like The Stiff suspension it's hard in potholes i feel almost everything,

mayor2013:
Check other smaller components first. Do a thorough diagnosis first. Is your venza built with a climate control system. If it is you could scan the ac control unit for fault error (s)
Yes It's built with a climate control system,

Work out the mathematics and get back to me
leuelliot:
if you do the math its going to cost about 350K to get that compressor to Nigeria. lets break it down
Compressor=$785.92
shipping (to a US address)=$128.43
Shipping and convinience fee to Nigeria =$150
total=1064.35
dollar exchanges at 325 as i type
1064.35*325= 345913.75 Nigerian Naira
Anyway ....It's very affordable for me am just wondering it's that expensive....
But is the issue am having related to Compressor .or i have to check the other A/c components , The dollar rate is not friendly for one to be wasting money on what's not the main culprit
Car TalkRe: Z by Readonee35L(op): 4:32pm On Feb 14, 2016
mayor2013:
Your check engine light blinking while driving means there is a misfire, could be a multiple misfire on all cylinders or a single misfire on 1 cylinder. You might want to check your spark plugs first.

Brand new compressor for toyota venza is 400k
Na lie oh.... 400khuh??
Or You're stating the price for 2Gr-Fe

The A/c techie said the Ac system is fine and he Added Gas to it,
It worked fine
Next day Same issue, The weather was hot , it took more than a minute to start Blowing cold,
The A/c works fine but takes over a minute before it starts blowing cold in Hot weathers ,
I'l be glad if i can get any help, Also i notice if i accelerate the Ac blows more than when on idle,

Last night when i was coming back from the island,i felt the adrenaline rush in me so i decided to Floor The Gas and Exercise My 6 cylinders, i tried to overtake an Suv i downshifted and i expected a sharp Acceleration rather i got a blinking Cel and Tcs light, Luckily i was almost close to the house, When i parked i noticed the car was rough idling, i switched it of and On and everything seems fine No cel light or tcs light
I scanned it today no codes, I even took it for a very rough ride and heavy flooring but it responded well,
So now am confused,

Fyi... Mr Itk...
The agent that clears the car can't clear it as savage (accidented if you may) only as used as they both (savage and used) incure the same amount of duty... a charger with a broken engine can't move in the port as it's opportunity for theives to steal body parts when coming out... then you have to tow a bad car to the destination from the port...

It is an opinion... it's either taken or ignored... I only come to the auto section to check out cars for sale... and the Dodge sparked my interest... hope you're happy now... Aproko united...

Wow, 5.7L Is for RT, i used to have a 6.1L SRT8
The engine can be sourced locally and i feel it should be cheaper here, people don't really use them here ,it shares the same 5.7L with Chrysler 300C ,dodge Challenger, Ram ,Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango
It's a good buy, if you can get a good mechanic to perform the swap for you,
You can contact Mr Gazzuzzz

There is nothing wrong with that car, like someone said, it come with both V6 and V4, it's most likely made on the request of the owner and guess that's why the Plate too is customised!

Interior and accesories will cost upto 500k

Every car has a class and purpose, this is a subcompact car targeted at fuel efficiency.

The Hyundai accent ranges from 1.3 to1.6L.

The Toyota yaris from 1.3 to 1.5 L.

So what are you getting at.
