Hello people!

 

Can anyone tell me or show me where can I locate the transmission oil filler for Estima 2007? The drainage is under the carriage but the filler part cannot be seen anywhere. Not in the engine bay too. I happily bought the CVT oil but end up can't locate the filler point. Luckily did not drain the oil yet. 

 

Many thanks!

$164k or $146k?

 

If really $146k then is very good price!

Hi, my estima comes with only 2 air bags (fewer than some other model). Is there anyway/recommendation that I can add air bags to the side at local reputable workshop?

[Hamburger]

pillow is possible but not air bag.

[DACH]

Air bags are only factory fitted.

I can confirmed it can easily go thru 1.8m height limited carparks as I am driving one. This is infact quite invaluable as there were a few occassions I need to park in 1.8m MSCPs when it was raining. If I am driving a taller car I would have to use a distant carpark and my family will suffer from the downpour.

 

I recently upgraded from the 2006 model and loved the many improvements. Besides the obvious exterior enhancements, one signifcant change is in the handling -- the new model is fitted with front performance damper to help absorb vibrations. Another one note worthy is the slight increase in ground clearance, which brings a slightly higher drive position and less risk of scraping of rear bottom when parking.

 

Note sure if this has been introduced in the previous Face-lift but the 2016 model has a pair of speakers factory-fitted on the roof, along the B pillar stretch. So there are a total number of 6 speakers in the MPV.

 

 

Per my past experience, around 1.5 years.

Hi, noted the older estima does not come with 'performance damper'. Is there anyone in this forum who could advice on whether it is worth adding aftermarket 'Performance Damper' to the older estima? Any sharing of experience is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi everyone,

 

I am a newbie here, hence i am not able to post a new discussion thread. I hope this is not too intruding.

 

I need some advice from the experts here in this forum as I am facing some intermittent locking issue that happens ONLY on the driver's side button on the outside door handle. I am driving a 2008 Estima with 2015 face-lift done.

 

Here's what I have done and observed.

1. I am able to unlock the door by touching the door handle.

2. After driving and turning off the engine, I am not able to lock the car with the driver's side button on the outside handle. However, I am able to lock on the passenger's side.

3. When I see the remote flashing its red LED (top right corner), I am able to lock/unlock on both passenger and driver's side doors.

 

This issue is intermittent. Sometime I am able to, but most of the time I am not able to lock. I have to resort to pressing the "Lock" button on the remote to lock the car, unless I don't mind walking over to the passenger's side door to lock the car using the button on the door handle.

 

Initially, I thought the open/close door sensor on the car frame (driver's side) is faulty, so I tried to troubleshoot using this method.

1. I unlock and open the driver's side door.

2. While keeping the driver's door open, I pressed the door open/close sensor manually with my finger till I see the door open indicator turns off on the dashboard.

3. The remote is located on the outside of the car.

4. I pressed the lock button on the car door handle (driver's side). It locks!

5. I unlock again.

6. This time, I close the driver's door. It does not lock. Strange! This is repeatable.

 

Anyone encountered this before? Thank you so much for your help.

My wife’s previa full tank travel around 450km give and take. Don’t think it’s possible to go 550km. Sounds pretty high risk. Even if U did manage to get there, how are u going to come down?
