Preparation for MOT - Toyota Avensis, 1.8 L, 2006

Preparation for MOT - Toyota Avensis 18 L 2006

Well, this significant date has come up :-).
I approached this procedure very efficiently and seriously.
For two weeks I tormented everyone and everything ... with questions.
It began with the fact that I suddenly (!) Remembered that it was time to go through MOT.
I called the authorized dealer's service station, where I did all the previous MOTs and bought a car.
There they counted me takooooe ... I got sick even ...
This TO at the PF STO includes:
1. engine oil change - 1 liter at 269 UAH. ($ 34)
2. replacement of the oil filter - 1 piece - 180 UAH. ($ 22.5)
3. Replacing the air filter - 1 piece - 180 UAH. ($ 22.5)
4. replacement of the cabin filter - 1 piece - 180 UAH. ($ 22.5)
They also threatened to check the bulbs) and make a diagnosis.
Work - 1.8 n / h
Total with work -UAH 2200 ($ 275)

Well, I don't think for a long time, I decided that this is a lot for me. And that it's enough to overpay for the guarantee, especially since everything is buzzing with the machine, mmm, nothing happened.

I talked to everyone who could help. And in the end I got everything I needed ...
And so:
1. Toyota oil - 1 liter for 110 UAH. ($ 14)
2. Oil filter - 30 UAH ($ 4)
3. Air filter - 90 UAH. ($ 12)
4. Cabin filter - 90 UAH. ($ 12)
5. Front stabilizer bushings - 2 pieces for 180 UAH. (22 $)
Total with a discount: 790 UAH. ($ 98)

All materials are purchased, in a word, beauty.
I'm glad, but the machine seems to wave its tail with joy)))

There is little left to do. Today I am going to replace all this good. For a very long time I was looking for a service station, where they will do everything with high quality, and will not be ripped off like a thread.
Thanks to drive2water suxxxer. I'm going to see him at the service station. (such a micro-advertisement :-)

Total with work: 946 UAH ($ 119)

So much for the difference of $ 156 , which will be useful to me for drinks for my mouse)))

Aha! Moreover, I have a bad guarantee! : (((
The second THAT cost me more than eight, you can look in the magazine.

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

And you, too, are all bad with TO?

K
Kolya 01.12.20

And how I envy!

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Yes, I myself am in shock)))
Well, you don't have a car)))

s
somebody 01.12.20

4000 for MOT ?! I envy!)

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Oh, you have there every 10 thousand MOT (We have 15.
Tell me, what MOT do you have the oil in the box at?

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Perhaps)) ... I recently waved after TO 30,000))))

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

And then))) And you know how glad the car is))) waving its tail)) joyfully rides)

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Convinced)

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Well them (Right now, it's not the right time for me to throw such money, I have enough for 1.5 months for gasoline.

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Clever girl! An anti-crisis option ...
But if I were you, I would still have passed MOT at the officials ... The remainder of 25,000 km or five months is not so little.
Shl. Although she will become a sho ... it's Tayota!)

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Sure )))

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Have you already passed MOT 75000 yourself?

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

They say this is a workflow, it happens (

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Again ... what motivates ?! Identified without disassembly?)))

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

And right now, you'll get it from them. They say this is not a warranty case.

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

It's just that usually the officials do not poke around with boxes, etc., but simply and stupidly change the assembly ...

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Well, the replacement is not right now, and not soon. She will walk, just twitch

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Where did they advise you that the box was only for replacement?

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Uh-huh (yes, I myself am sad and sad (

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

You upset me ... (

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

They said that option two cannot be repaired, or change the box after a while, or just carefully operate, try to reduce the force and number of jerks.
Twitches only 1 time, from the beginning of the movement, when switching from 1 to 2 gear.
But I have already learned how to control it and not let twitch.

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

It's better to repair now ... it only gets worse ... there are all sorts of solenoids ... brains ...
Strongly twitching?

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

No, they said it won't help. (

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Twitches ... not good of course ... Then you definitely need to try to change the fluid ... if only it helps.

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

I don't remember exactly the reason. But the point was that the official changes the oil once every 100 thousand, and it would be better once every 50.
My box is already twitching.

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Nargiz, well, you yourself should understand that these numbers are relevant only for the manual transmission. These people are either complete pedants, idealists ... or I don't even know how to characterize))) ... What motivates that?

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Well, it was said by people who have been working at Toyota-Lexus service stations for several years.

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

In the machine for 50? Some kind of crazy ...

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

And offSTO changes us to 90 thousand.
And they told me that it is better for me by 50 already.

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

And how then?

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

She doesn't agree!

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

By the way, until the end of the warranty on any ... just check periodically. You need to bother only after 100,000 km ...

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Oh well. Fuf)

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Okay, that's all ... now it's definitely let go!)))

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

There are reasons for everything.

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

But still! How could you?!

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

I climb out on the sly)

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Relax ... it lets me go ...

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Well, that's it (huddled in a corner (

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Passively, Nargiz, I behaved passively!) I would not give them a chance! They got scabby ...

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Uh-huh ((silly girl (

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Yes, it's a shame that they made a pancake, as usual ...

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Well, her, I will change the oil in 5 thousand. And I will just operate more carefully.

l
lexxey99 01.12.20

Ehhh ... if you had said about your box earlier, I would have sat on your brain before ...)

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Yes, we are both happy with her)

I
ILYUXA 01.12.20

refreshed the machine!

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Yes. It was worth the guarantee. But so far, everything is fine. )

d
digiter 01.12.20

good price-))

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

It was not me who shook me, but dad.
We do not regret even once that we jumped off the guarantee.

Legat 01.12.20

Quite strange behavior when there is a Guarantee. In my opinion, voluntarily abandon it, arguing that it is cheaper in the garage at least an unreasonable step. Immediately declaring that you will change the oil in the box after 5000 km about this. This… I don’t even know what to call it :) You’ll pay more for changing the automatic transmission oil than you saved on MOT, and the fact that the gearbox twitches means that the clutches are burnt. In theory, it was possible to compete for the coveted replacement for a new automatic transmission! I would not fit into this topic. Would have carried out MOT according to the regulations and would have taken out the brain to dealers so that "Automatic" was written off for replacement. Although most likely you yourself shocked him :) but that was a chance :) Especially since changing the oil in the automatic transmission does not work by and large, I know from my own experience.

PS It's a pity that everything is in the past tense. Maybe we could have convinced you.

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Thank you =) Fortunately, I didn't go to the TO90 to the official, there I would have left naked at all. One THAT is like 4 good winter slopes.

X
XOBEP 01.12.20

THAT is mine =))))
Say thank you that you do not have a frame =))))) Tayota =)))

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

that is not, Toyota compared to the Mercedes, BMW, volvs, Audi is cheap)

X
XOBEP 01.12.20

=))) Well
, ETOGE Toyota EPT =))) When I had common business with the service station, they told me a bunch of anectodes about the owners of Lehus, geldings, Toyota and other expensive foreign cars! When they are told prices, and they, oh, why is it so expensive =) ))
So be happy =)))

B
Bzzzzzzz 01.12.20

Oh, you know, I probably won't tell you a company.
I have a friend who is engaged in spare parts for Toyota, I asked him that a good filter was not originals, and he offered me. In principle, okay.
And more than what is written on the box, in the photo, I cannot say (

s
somebody 01.12.20

Hi, tell me which company is air and salon, it would also be necessary to change 65,000 after all. But I still thought to buy from them, well, I saved on filters, but maybe they have the quality of GG.
