I recently faced the problem of ac not working as expected. When I got the problem tested, from the agents it was said to be an issue related to the compressor (decreased in revs).
When I searched arround I found the issue to be a common one and the durable option was to change the valve in compressor or to replace the compressor.
With some help from this forum itself I was able to locate compressors belonging to 2 makes.
1. Made in Japan/ Denso
2. Made in Taiwan
Now the warranty of the 2 products are similar. But in many posts the quality aspect of the product was more positive towards Made in Japan part.
When I inquired around for the quality and durability, the answer I got from most ac repairers is that, for Premio in general the compressor starts to fault in about 4 to 5 years regardless of it's make and would require to be replaced.
Can anyone confirm or defy the above with facts?
(I have not received any records related to an ac repair from the previous owner and I'm the second owner)
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?
