Problem in Toyota Sprinter car, CE110 with 2C Diesel engine AT 1997, 120000km.
I have changed ATF about month ago. When I bought car, previous owner haven't changed ATF for long time. I Used caltex ATF and cost me about Rs9000 to do it. (wash and refill I think)
After few days of this ATF change (about 200km) clutch balance of vehicle became problem. Now car goes backward in D gear when I placed it in small incline. Earlier it stopped in reasonable inclines without going back in D gear. In same place, now it goes back (pretty fast). Also before ATF change when I place car in D and disengage paddle brake, car gets reasonable speed on flat surface without pressing accelerator. Now at same conditions car can hardly attain about 2~5 km/h.
can any one please explain me the problem and possible fix?
Officially joined the thel-hinganna normie horde with ....drumroll... a 2025 Vezel... I am eagerly anticipating joining the 'thel keeyak karanawada' debates at almsgivings.
Recently, got the opportunity to see and get inside of The one and only Japanese V12, Toyota Century(a.k.a Japanese Rolls Royce). Is it really upto Rolls Royce standards? Nope, I don't think so. Items like Switches and mirror housings are in plastic. But, we can be assured that the dashboard will not light up like Christmas and would run forever....
...and just like that from having parking space issues a few month's back I'm car-less.
The cost of renting something for a month or two (even more - personal imports have been quite messy of late) made me wonder if it actually makes sense to buy a quickly disposable car and get rid of it in a couple of months - but it seems the 'popular' models aren't moving. A few messages to sellers (registered owners) on marketplace resulted in them sending me daily price reduction updates.
Sleepless nights have begun. I'm twisting between SL320 and SL500. Should I just pay additional 2000 euros more and go for the SL500 and go broke or settle with a SL320?
