Re: TOYOTA COROLLA AIR CONDITIONING ISSUES

Folks, The issue for the valve going bad is not contaminants or oil breakdown. This is a sealed high-pressure system. Nothing can get in to contaminate. I have a 15-year old Fielder with freezing AC.

Re: Led/ super white headlamp bulbs 1.8 Cruze

Yellow lights light up your way better than white lights. (your eyes see better)
White lights surely blind the oncoming driver.
My advice is to stick with the original lights the car came with.
The wiring was intended to handle that current too.

If that is the flange where the engine bolts to the transmission, then most likely the engine crankshaft (big) seal is leaking.

This is up for real argument, but as far as my experience has shown, there is NOTHING superior to the Japanese in terms of value for the dollar.

Re: Toyota Aqua / Prius question

Unlike the previous gas-powered 1300cc JDM Fit, the Hybrid has a 1500cc, so there should not be a problem. I know that Honda engines from the past were not all that hot on low end torque, but preferred to rev. Maybe there are other reasons. I have never driven the Hybrid Fit. From my experience I pr...

Re: Bluebird sylphy ac

The vent control on the Sylphy is motorized. These motors are problematic. They do not shut the vents properly. You can have cold air through three, and have hot through the one with the defective motor. Rather than look for the motor, get your AC person to remove it completely. The vent will shut. ...

Folks, The new 2018 CRV has a 1498cc engine istead of 2000cc. It means that instead of 35% Customs Duty on a 2000cc vehicle , ANSA motors will pay 25%. The MVT will now be TT$7,495 before VAT instead of TT$22,387. Of course after all these reductions, the VAT also will drop. Now........................

Toyota calls the "gearbox" a Power Split Device which is a unit made up of planetary gears between the two motor/generators. In late generation of the Prius the unit is more complicated with a second set of planetary gears and is now called the Speed Reduction Device.
