No traffic, I don't drive aggressively, no check engine light.

8km per liter is not too good for a 1.8L engine. I drive a 2.4L engine car and I do get 7.5km per liter even though I have engine light on.

Musty4ahmed1:
Please I want to know if a car that is doing 8km/L is a good fuel economy car. I drive Toyota corrola 2005.

Which city are you in, do you drive only in the city?
What’s the driving pattern and also how serious is the traffic.
Is the car in a good condition with no check engine light.

ashafson:
Well i think you may be right because i drive within the town, may be on highway it may b less. i think i will try to check its mpg on highway b4 attemting anything.
tnx

You will discover that nothing is wrong with your Car fuel consumption when you drive on the highway.. Though you can't up to what the manufacturers mpg... But the difference won't be much.

PAQ:
I owned a 2012 Corolla, travelled monthly to kaduna from Abuja for 2 yrs, it is not as heavy on the ground as a Camry but it certainly aint no bicycle, except you are a speed-demon. wetin you go come call 206, piccanto or yaris? A 2013 Corolla may not be a rocket but its a very good, problem free ride, to me its even better looking than a Camry and alot more reliable, the interior is better than that peeling interior of a Camry (Muzzle).

@OP if you need space, speed, peeling interior then go for the Camry. But if you want a compact, reliable, slightly slower quieter ride with better looks (subjective) then go for the 2013 Corolla S.

No mind all these Corolla yabbers, many dont understand the joy of going to the mechanic only for servicing and general maintenance.

The 2010 Camry did not have peeling interior.
The new engine 2.5L is more powerful and rugged than the Corolla 1.8L.
The Camry is faster and comes with 6 speed automatic gear against the Corolla that has 4 speed geer.
Balance and handling, the Camry is far ahead of the Corolla.
I will go for the Camry.

Any review for a used toyota sienna 2006 factoring

Economy and maintenance?

To be used for everyday inner city running not travels?

This is 2004/2005 Sienna. It’s a rugged vehicle. Buy a well maintained and take good care of it.

Built2last:
See the protest in portHarcourt yesterday for Nnamdi Kanu.

He has a very large followership. The government must thread with caution. Evil is at their door.

Please where in Port Harcourt did the protest took place? stop misleading the public

What does Governor Wike want to say about his style of greeting in the photo attached..

demborise:
i want to buy jack for toyota highlander which one is good between this two

The second one is good.

Maxymilliano:
Obaseki decamped to the PDP after he was disqualified from contesting APC gubernatorial primaries, obtained form, passed through screening and contested the PDP primaries alongside other contestants.

You’re defense is so flat. Obaseki became a Governor under APC and when he was denied the party ticket he moved with APC mandate to PDP. Or you want to tell me that his first term has finished before he decamped?
When Saraki and co defect to PDP in 2018 with APC mandate nobody say anything.

simple250:
Which mandate ...obaseki was disqualified from contesting during the election .

Did Obaseki resign before joining PDP? He defected with APC mandate and nobody said anything.

hybrid11:
I will advise you leave Avalon and go for Toyota corrola 03 and 04
Economical,last longer, don't consume gas, spare part cheap and vast

You’re not completely right.
The Corolla is not economically you can’t get a well maintained below 1.3/1.5 million. Meanwhile you can get Avalon for less.
With proper maintenance the Avalon can last same way as the Corolla.
Truly doesn’t consume much fuel.
Corolla parts is expensive because the demand is on the high.
Remember that buying the Corolla the OP won’t be able to sleep with his 2 eyes close. Even driving the car he will always be on the look out for thieves.
I will go for the Avalon or Camry bug for nothing and have peace of mind.

TheGoodJoe:
The only solution is Urban development of other towns. Siting of projects and satellite towns outside Port Harcourt.

That will bring development. For instance the so called Odili hospital should not be in a town that is having traffic burden.

Unfortunately, we have a Governor who wants to starve other Ministries of money for his selfish gain.

So daft projects will continue.

The Governor has seats it several times that he will do all his best to develop port harcourt. He doesn’t care about other areas of the state. That’s why I laugh whenever he accuse PMB of Nepotism. The Ikwerre’s are the Fulani’s of rivers state. They see other tribes as second class.

rationalmind:
I disagree with this.

If you know how Rumuokoro used to be, I don't think you'll say this. The only people experiencing any serious traffic at rumuokoro are those coming from Rumuodomaya and even that is early in the morning when everyone is rushing to work.

I also suspect that the partial blockage at Rumuola contributes to the traffic at rumuokoro. I'm looking forward to the commissioning of Rumuola flyover.

At the bolded is wrong. All the 4 roads that connects to the roundabout at rumuokoro are always experiencing traffic jam. Before the flyover if you’re coming from Nkpolu/okoro part you can make a u turn before the roundabout, if you’re coming from eliozu you can also make u turn before the roundabout. But after the construction of the flyover they blocked those u turns and you have to come and everybody have to come under the bridge to turn. I pass this place every 2 days and I know how long it takes vehicles to turn at the roundabout.

KingsCity:
That's point. JB's designs are poor. That's the problem with Rumuokoro flyover and that's also going to be the problem with Ikoku junction. That problem is not there with Eleme junction flyover which RCC built.

The government is trying to solve the problem but the contractor need to deliver the needed quality

My point is that the contractor gave the government what they paid for and approved.

KingsCity:
There is always traffic around that Ikoku junction. It's JB's job as experts to advice the government and also come up with a design that effectively addresses traffic issues around that area

Bro I can bet with you that at the completion of that Ikoku flyover, there will still be massive traffic for those going to mile 1 from mile 3 side.
Why can’t they let the bridge face Mile 1.
The state government is just wasting scarce resources in the name of flyover.
Look at what’s happening at rumuokoro right now. The traffic is worse than it was before flyover because all cars come to turn under the flyover.

KingsCity:
I don't believe Rivers paid for poor design

Rivers state government paid for poor design. Example is the Ikoku flyover that’s coming from Azikiwe street to olu-Obasanjo. How on earth will that flyover be useful considering how busy Ikwerre road is from mile 3 to mile 1.

KingsCity:
I wouldn't blame the governor, I blame Julius Berger because they are the professionals, it's their job to a good design and do a good job

What if JB presents a good design and the government choose a cheaper one, so that they can steal the project funds.

OP you’re right about the poor jobs been done in Port harcourt by JB. But do you know that the Governor doesn’t listen to advise?
The rumuokoro flyover is just a waste of money and time. Same thing may happen in Rumuola

phrancys001:
No just fill it up with kerosene, munu question

You don’t have to show the whole world how frustrated you’re.

something is fishy...

Apst:
if u know Edo and PDP with politics u won't say this. Even delta state are solely controlled by PDP. Oshomole won in Edo because igbinedion was a monumental failure and because of his strides with NLC .
Now I stand to be corrected because am not in Edo or from Edo but if u check those taking the heats are the guys that crossed from APC to PDP. If I must say states like delta Edo bayelsa rivers and akwa ibom can't be taken from PDP unless the leaders crossed and once their tenure is out they loose again to PDP

Please read what you wrote... You said Edo was solely controlled by PDP? The last time i check Obaseki won his first term under APC. APC won the ballots in Bayelsa during the last governorship election. Does that mean APC can't win election in those states?

OkoNDOoBo:
Fight never start sef. Make Edo pdp wait for the real fight next election when obaseki will force his deputy down their throat and start filling frivolous suits to fight pdp NWC if they don't support him

The fight go sweet wella..

Edo PDP should not complain rather endure. What is happening now is just child's play to what's going to happen during the next election.

Fight over Omehias governorship ambitions.. Vintage Amaechi paying to the gallery..
Amaechi grabbed the governorship position from Omehia with the help if One Nyesomghosa Wikevie, through one of the most bizarre Supreme Court rulings in Nigerias recent memory. Since then, his loyalty gas been all over the place! Partly because of the fact that lots "foreigners" helped him upturn Omehias victory at the apex court, Amaechis loyalty has been for "foreign interests" ever since.. Without them, he wouldn't have been relevant, he thinks..

Now it's starting to look like the same Omehia will take over from Wikevie..
And a restless Amaechi is not having any of that and is already whipping up ethnic sentiments against Wikevie and his plans. Expect buharis Army and police to join soon. Nyesomghosa Wikevie is a character really! The same irritant who shouts himself hoarse at every juncture in his perceived fight against those trying to swallow ikwerre is the one trying to turn the politics of a multi ethnic state like Rivers into a one tribe affair! The irony...

At the bolded you are so wrong.. Amaechi won the PDP primary and his name was sent to INEC... OBJ believed Amaechi is Odili's iy and that's the reason he refused to give Amaechi the party flag at the campaign ground at Elekahia stadium instead he gave it to Omehia.
Amaechi went to court to fight for his right and he won..
Yor second paragraph is also wrong because Wike is not even reasoning Omehia.. Wike will support Autin Okpara from Phalga.

Wike is doing everything to show other tribes in Rivers state that the Governor seat wont leave the Ikwerre tribe.. He will soon unveil Austin Opara as his anointed candidate..
What will be the gain and fate of the Ogoni's that Wike used to stop APC in 2019?
Wike went to Ahaoda and was so blunt telling them that their help and votes are not needed by him anymore..
Interesting times ahead in rivers politics.

cajoextreme:
Hi,
I need a little info from anyone knowledgeable before I get a mechanic. This is my first car so I don't know much.
It has been sitting for a month now, and I haven't been around to use it. I tried starting it now. It made a very weak sound like it was trying to start and stopped. Tried a couple of times, same thing. Till eventually it didn't even make the sound anymore. More like a clicking sound.
Please what could be faulty with it now? And how much does it usually cost to fix?
I'm just looking for a fair idea to know what to expect. Also so that some hungry mechanic doesn't swindle me.
Appreciate any info anyone can provide.
Thanks!

The battery is dead. Look for a battery to start the car and charge your present battery.
