Postby Chemist94 » April 29th, 2018, 5:47 pm

Oh guys..got a predicament
I wanna buy a car right..my options are a RoRo wingroad 2014 or a PDH Fielder S type on 80,000km with no issues.

nze parts fairly common
I've had both 121 and 141 fielders, there is no comparion with a wingsroad.
141 rides way better too. Fairly fuel efficient and faster than the nissan.
Not sure about the newer model fielder though but I guess it would be same/updated nze engine.
The only thing is the cvt gearbox is a little troublesome to chagne the oil which should be done every 30k or so I think.
The air condition compressor goes bad though like in many of the newer compressors using solenoid valve.
Replaced it with older model compressor and no problem.

btw toytota suspension parts last 10times longer than nissan, bushings etc
ask any machine shop

in terms of car age the nissan would technically be the better buy eh but i own a fielder and i would never choose a nissan.

the parts are pricey but as pugboy said they last way longer once you buy oe spec parts and the difference in ride comfort is not even comparable. best you see if you can drive both cars and which ever feels better go with that one. remember you will be driving it for a while so go with what you will enjoy more

Wingroad because it’s newer. How old is that fielder? Roro PDH sounds like a 2008/2009 model. Also chances are that 80k kms you think it’s doing is actually more as more than likely it was rolled back previously.

I checked the cvt oil and it's still redish..no signs of brown so it's still good..its costly to change that oil..and well for the compressor ik ppl who just replace the solenoid and they was good to go..so I leaning more on the fielder

Depends on the part. usually you can get by with parts by not buying the cheapest option available. most of these cars use branded parts but they dont actually make any of them. but if you like using genuine parts you can usually get them at gobins auto in st augustine and chaguanas auto supplies. i use whats available as i am not always able to afford the oem parts. sometimes aftermarket parts may actually be stronger than original parts but like i said its subjective and heavily depends on where the parts are made. most of the japanese made replacements tend to be fine. i try to stay away from cheap chinese made stuff

Check the price of a Toyota fielder engine, Transmission, find out about the carbon build up in head.

For future reference..abybody knows a reliable person to change transmission fluid in these sealed systems?
Average cost and person number would be great
