10 months of ownership of Matrix! - Toyota Matrix, 1.8 L, 2003
I would like to summarize 10 months of operation of my wonderful car. Hit 10,000 km. It seems not so much, tk. the city is not big, mostly to work and back. I try not to save money and buy good quality parts in trusted places.
After the purchase, of course, the engine oil, cabin filters, oils, air were replaced. I was very surprised that there is no fuel filter, as it turned out - this is a feature of many Japanese (only a mesh filter is installed in the fuel tank).
Plus, I replaced the anthers on the front shock absorbers and the cushions on them. Front pads. It turned out about 9,000 rubles.
A month later, the rear wheel hub was replaced, buzzed (since it is assembled with a bearing) - 5000 rubles. I changed it myself.
For the winter I had to buy new wheels, R16 from Avensis + winter tires. He took off the front canines.
Also installed Xenon, while only in low beam.
In December, I changed the front bearing, also buzzed, 2000 rubles. along with work. I diagnosed the hodovka, while everything is OK, the only thing will soon need to replace the rear pads, oil in the engine, box, and filter.
So far, like everything.
