A vehicle being shipped from Japan takes 4 weeks. Sometimes if it has to be trans-shipped from Jamaica it takes 6 weeks. During that time none of the sailors on the ship goes to start the Hybrid vehicles so that the Li-ion batteries would be topped up. Ain't got time for that ! When the vehicle arri...

I brought one down from the port and took it to licensing office San Fernando for registration.
Nice driving vehicle. 2015 model. Very nice interior.
Too, it has a very quick acceleration. I was pleasantly surprised.
Young guy in San Fernando is the owner.
Peace.

The Aqua is a small hatchback carrying the same drivetrain as the Axio hybrid and the Fielder hybrid. It is a small version to the current Prius which carries a more powerful drivetrain. The Aqua has a 1500cc engine, while the Prius carries an 1800 engine. It is known as the Prius C in the US. The A...

I have driven Honda, Nissan and Toyota Hybrids and the Toyota (Axio) runs the longest on motor power before the engine cuts in. As a matter of fact, I reached 75kmh on the Hochoy on motor propulsion only. Of course, road/traffic conditions determines that. The type of driving we do, and the traffic ...

Anyone with a diagnostic scanner can reset your idle. I have had that problem with the HR15 engines. It is not a mechanical issue, that's why your mechanic cannot fix it.

I had a client who fiddled with the dash display on an Xtremer X model (gasoline only) and got it to display in english. The main thing on the Hybrid model are the graphics that anyone can understand, that show when : 1. The engine is powering the vehicle. 2. The electric motor is powering the vehic...

I have been doing some research on the Hybrid System of Toyota. The Prius is in it's third generation, and it is 20 years now that it has been produced, and has gotten good reviews. The latest model is a plug-in hybrid with a 26-mile range with speeds up to 80mph on battery power. If I am purchasing...

Last week I delivered a2015 X-Trail Hybrid doing close to 9,000kms. Everything delivered was under TT$180K. The owner was extremely pleased. I have another being shipped from Japan next week. Last month I delivered a Honda Vezel Hybrid (HR-V) All the major Japanese manufacturers are going that way. ...

Ok.
Let me put you along the right line. It is just that you have to do some work.

Just make sure that when you are done, you get a pair of red Fiamm horns to complete the job.
They sound super.

Are you sure that there IS a transmission (read gearbox or automatic gearbox) in a Hybrid X-Trail ?
In the Toyota Prius Hybrid, there is none.

The process starts with taking the car to Licensing office to go over the pit. The docs. are submitted to the registration officer inside the building. He takes two to three days to go through the docs. then approve for payment at the cashier. Once the payment is made, then it takes four working day...

Yes it is possible to ship from the Phillipines to Trinidad. Just go to Gordon Grant Shipping or Navarro's. There are many other shipping companies in Trinidad that will give you info. .....By the way, did you do geography in school ? Have you looked on a world map, to see where the Phillipines are ...

I know that fully well. (You forget that I posted the photos above in the opening article. Wikipedia tell you that. ) The point is that the 2010 Juke does not resemble the 1998 HRV in any way. But the 2014 HRV/Vezel and now the 2017 Toyota CHR both take styling cues from the popular Juke. ( Check wh...

Look at it this way. 9-and-a-half years is pretty old. The cost of the original Toyota parts may be more than what the van is now worth. LOL !!! You know, when my Fielder wagon was nearing ten years old doing about 100,000 kms the back bearing assemblies started to make noise. The original at Toyota...

The Fielder is cheaper than an Axio. The Fielder has a tachometer. All Axios do not carry that. The Fielder can carry a 36"x 60" door for your house quite easily. If you go regularly on the Port to collect barrels, then the barrel fits easily. Taking people to the airport with suitcases is...

When your car is started, especially on mornings, the engine is put on a fast-idle mode to warm up fast and to permit drive-off. The AC being on also puts the engine on fast-idle. The NZE121 has hydraulic power steering, not electric like the NZE 141. This means that it has a steering pump and it ta...

People in good ole T&T feel that when they buy Chevy, they are getting good ole US made cars. All Chevy here are really Korean Daewoo-made vehicles, for their knowledge. For the moment the Nissan 3-cyl 1200cc engines are fitted in the JDM Note, March and Latio (Versa). In Japan, there is a Note ...

This is for HOT-HARDSTARTING ONLY. 1. Does the engine start with one tumble on mornings when the engine is rested and cold ? 2. When it is running, then shut down, does the engine restart within a minute quite easily ? 3. When running it is shut down. Say fifteen or twenty minutes after then you try...

From forbes.com Peter Lyon. With this year being the 20th anniversary of the world’s first production hybrid car--Toyota’s Prius--it seems only fitting that a new more efficient rethink of that original technology should surface and take us in an even cleaner direction. Enter the Nissan Note e-Power...

Years ago, when Nissan introduced the Juke, almost everybody skinned up their faces and bawled "Oh gorsh, dat ting ugly !". Right now, the Juke will be on its' second model soon. The Hybrid is on the drawing board too. For those who never drove a Juke, worse yet, owned one, this is an exce...

Thanks for the info. I wanted to say something similar, but I did not want to put my foot in my mouth. I was not even aware that the rear diff. had to be sealed. There are quite a few AWD regular cars in Japan.........not high performance models, because there are areas in Japan that have snow condi...

Unfortunately Ian, you will not get that radio to work, even if you copy another SD card from another similar deck. The SD card encoded for that specific deck is the only one that will work. This is a problem with all modern Nissan decks. If the head-unit came from Japan without it, then...............

The all wheel drive vehicle are sometimes sold to the unsuspecting buyer, by some of the Ro-Ro dealers. All wheel drive cars are "continuously all-wheel drive", you cannot go on 2WD mode. There are 3 differentials between the engine and the wheels. One is between the front wheels, one betw...
