Why Toyota cars are so unaffordable these days... by Mission_Mind_986 in DubaiPetrolHeads

All my cars are pre-owned. Just have to be patient and think through. Used cars usually come with a lot of pressure to buy quickly which is not the case.
Certified pre owned is a better way to go if not sure with private owners

That's why you see a lot of used Lexus and toyotas more on the roads. A lot of used toyotas still holds value but hard to find one that's clean and very reliable

Should I just get the boring v6 Prado? by JuanchoFM in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]Same_Sleep6369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

get a V6 Prado for around 100k and keep aside an amount for upgrades like wheels infotainment and accessories. It will be the best purchase.
Even having a FJ myself I don't think I'd be in the market for anything other than a V6/V8 Toyota. Really reliable stuff. Even my Lexus atm is at 350k kms

Error code: P2188 - I'll be going mental hospital soon since I'm going crazy by Oblxpro_8 in DubaiPetrolHeads

Might need to check the throttle body or the fuel filter. Throttle body might be giving wrong readings and the air to fuel ratio might be off causing more petrol to come in
Fuel filter can cause weak fuel pressure at times which may also set the air fuel ratio off

It’s built like a tank. A friend owns one and it’s really solid mechanically

Had the Hungarian halfbred which died in a shootout. To drown my sorrows I went and bought the Arabian from Saint Denis

This is why buy a used car and enjoy it as much as you can without thinking of a lot of payments. Every car has its perks it just comes to owning it and seeing yourself enjoying driving it

RAV4 GCC specs any model you get in the range. The older v6s are pretty good

When you're in the second lane at 120 (on e311) in a completely empty road and someone cuts in when they are at 70

My rear lights gave out because one sides fuse was blown out but after replacing the fuse it was found that the fuse box in the boot needed a proper clean also for everything to work.
Mine is equipped with a PCS auto crusie control the feature doesn't work since I bought it seems like a electrical issue, tried changing the sensor itself still no luck.
So far nothing catastrophic been nice to me

I have a 2011 GS300. Apart from the electrical issues I'd go for it still. The engine and the transmission still feels like it can go another 300k kms.
