Respect.
Both Fielder and Axio carry Chassis code NKE165.

This is the facelifted model with different front and rear.
I would have liked to get the 2015 G WXB, but LAWD IT SO EXPENSIVE !

Amsoil is very expensive oil and there are more cost effective alternatives. I'd always go for European made oils because they sell you exactly 1L over 946ml.venum wrote:ramishrrr wrote:Great forum for the Fielder and Axio Hybrid.

yesterday I checked out the loaded 2014 model, tbh the differences to the G basic model are subtle, same engine and PSD,
so far from what I have seen its just:
projector headlights
fog (some)
bucket seats
body kit (some)
audio controls on steering
auto lights
alloy rims (some)
no carbon fiber trim on doors, their doors kinda basicmostwantedDUDE wrote:Where locally you got the spark plugs to purchase ? Also the tranny fluid why is Toyota WS used instead of the TC fluid?
working on that spark plugs
Toyota recommends their WS. they have different grades of fluids out there, but that is what they recommend, Why though i would presume that for the design, friction requirements, heat dissipation parameters of eCVT the WS has the specification requiredKrystal Car Part Imports wrote:Why does everyone like recommending Amzoil?

I recommend Amsoil because it is what I use and have good experience with it in multiple other vehicles, both gas and diesel. there are many good oils out there. When guys use other brands and report back on their experiences, I will update the main post. Toyota recommends 0W20 and advise that 5W30 be used only when 0W20 not available, but only for 1 oil change, then switch back to the 0W20. I believe that is applicable to cold climates. The oil body can be debated for our climate, temps etc, but for me, in this thread I'm sticking to what manufacturer advises
NP has launched a new 0W20 oil just for hybrids, (not even on their website yet) its got all the required certifications too. they even say that they will replace your engine if failure occurs due to the oil . . . but that is just marketing, until seen in writing and then to proove that it was the oil at fault is a whole different scene.
Before the budget it cost me $120 to full my fielder since than I didn't let it run empty to see how much it takes to full now But when I do I can let you know I was also going to try and full with premium and get an average for thatjl0908 wrote:how much liters in the gas tank or how much does it take to full?
I saw somewhere it cost approximately $100 to fill,is this true?
I have a WXB, it also cost me $120 before the budget. Also considering to switch to premium how much did it cost to full on premium?venum wrote:Car looks good man, CONGRATULATIONS and welcome to the club
loving these WXB models
look around in the engine bay for signs of the real true mileage, before auction yard rolled it back
sometimes you see the service stickers with the last service mileage.
mine was delivered with 25,000km on the dash, but the stickers in the engine bay had 58,329km, also did a report that found the car details during the de-registration process and it showed 59,xxx km
peace of mind for yourself so you know what maintenance to tackle first
as for the gas, used to take $120 to fill when the tank was on 1 bar, that was pre-budget Super gas
now, i'm running Premium to see how it lasts and the performance difference.
so far the performance is not noticeable, ran a half tank to burn out the lil bit of super it had. Updates to come on that soon enough
PM me your phone number and I'll add you to the Hybrid (165) whatsapp group
Also I do agree with your statement that reffed to the mileage of these vehicles, since I bought my car on auction I've seen the average mileage of all the cars so whenever I see low mileages one's selling locally it's just real sketchy. Anyway mine is came in at 50,xxx and the I also had the de registration certificate which confirm that .venum wrote:Car looks good man, CONGRATULATIONS and welcome to the club

That's actually not bad will go with premium on the next full upvenum wrote:premium was $140 to fill right up (on gauge, not overfill) from 2 bars

Kyle_9449 wrote:How much km you usually get on a full tank of premium? I get around 550-600km (I don't think I've crossed 600km really...I'm unsure I need to check it better next time I full) before fulling when it's down to one bar. Would love to know the performance with premium and do you think you'll get a few extra km off premium?
