Oga,
I am confused on the real fluid Guage for my Toyota Corolla automatic transmission gear. After hours on the net I got more confused.

I check it this morning with the dip stick and the level is little above the hot level mark. I didn't start the engine yet.

Please put me through.
Thanks

Check with the engine running and vehicle temp on cold mark.


Again check with engine running and vehicle temp on middle mark.

Note gear can be in park or neutral does not matter.

1. Fluid level is at hot mark(upper curve)


Again check with engine running and vehicle temp on middle mark.

2. Fluid level very high above the hot level. At SW level.

Why does this make you confused?

Sir,
When the engine was running and the vehicle temp mark was on cold, the fluid level was on hot mark (upper curve).

Again, when the engine was running and the vehicle temp on middle mark, the fluid level was at SW mark. That's above the hot level dip stick mark.

That's the results. I try na.

Oga mi gazuzz.
I greet you sir.
Abeg help me check out this car, is it good to buy, some said it’s South African type or so, does that mean it isn’t good sir?

The question is rather vague and subjective.

E.g if car was being sold for ₦500,000 would it be a good buy?

Truly.
But don’t know if you have come across South African made Corolla, this is a 2009 Corolla as the person told me but I noticed it’s prices are always cheaper than the USA made one.
So just asking if SA cars are good.

South African cars are right handed. So if you any left handed car from South Africa then know it's been converted.

thanks for this.

@ Oga GAZZUZZ
Good Day Sir, I just discovered today that My Toyota Corrolla Sport 2004 Model bought Last Year September didn't come with a Catalyst Converter. I called the Dealer who told me it could've have been removed from USA where he bought the Car from.
Honestly, I don't know what to do... I don't even have Funds to buy another Catalyst Converter ... what's the best alternative for me now?
This was my First Car... I'm resident in Abuja

Best alternative = 02 spacers.

HeavenlyBang:




Best alternative = 02 spacers.

How and where do I get it in Abuja Sir?

HeavenlyBang:




Best alternative = 02 spacers.

Does the 02 Spacers Reduce Fuel Consumption too?

same thing happened to me when i first bought the same car, later realized there was an error somewhere by the manufacturer on some of the model, and honda released another belt routing and also change the belt num to 7pk2164, below is the new routing am currently using.

You are wrong.Toyota has an assembling factory in SA which they assembled cars for exports.Not all cars from SA are right handed cars.
