Check Valve Body before you change gear box

Many mechanics especially in my country Kenya and maybe in Africa and other parts of the world rush to change gearbox whenever they realise a car has common jerking, slow change of gears and which makes a car appear to be having gearbox problems. Before you rush to buy that expensive gearbox advise your mechanic to zero in on Valve Body first because many problems that emerges are as a result of dirty or malfunctioning Valve body. Remember Valve Body is the heart of the gearbox.

Some Difference between Golf MK7 1200cc and 1400cc

Industrialisation has brought positive things into our lives; we can move from one continent to another in a very short time thanks to aeroplanes and ships. Communication has become very easy and the world is now described as a global village.

However, technology and industrialisation has brought negative effects to the environment. Pollution brought about by emission of Carbon dioxide has contributed to depletion of O zone layer. Scientists and other players in environment are working round the clock to reduce industrial emission of Carbon Dioxide and car manufacture industry is the most affected area as car contribute alot as far as carbon dioxide emission is concern. The world is focusing on reversing the damage caused by carbon dioxide emmissions hence the new technology being employed but car manufacturers that include use of electric cars, hybrid cars and cars with small engines but which employs the use of turbo engines. that more damage to environment is

All Volkswagen cars have reduced their fuel capacity in their engines. For instance FSI engines used 1600cc while Tsi use 1400cc and recently 1200cc bluemotion. Tsi employ use of turbo which ensures the users get enough power while using less fuel on the roads. Turbo employs technology where gas are returned and compressed to be used to turn the turbines which in turn suck in more air to be used for combustion hence the high revs with small acceleration.

A number of users may claim that a 1200cc engine is weaker than 1400c when in true sense the difference is very negligible. Let us look at the following features in comparing the two cars.

Torque

A 1200cc gives the user a torque of 175nm (Newton Metres) while a 1400cc comes with a torque of 200Nm both at 1400-4000rpm.

Horse power

A 1200 cc comes with a 110 HP while 1400cc comes with 150Hp meaning a 1400cc has more power compared to a 1200cc.

A 1200cc does 0-100km/hr in 9.9 seconds while 1400cc does 0-100km/hr in 8.2 seconds.

Fuel economy

1200cc does 4.9Litres/100kms while 1400cc does 5.2 Litres/100kms. 1400cc on the other hand does 19.23kms/Litre while 1200cc does 23.3Kms/Litre.

Why VW Golf bluemotion 2014 is a must-own car

Many Kenyans are moving away from just driving a car to driving a car that is worth their investment. For instance, most cars that were manufactured in 2013 onwards are different from the “normal” cars that many are used to; Nissan Note and Mazda Axela are some of the cars whose technology has moved the young generation in Kenya into abandoning units such as Toyota Vitz and Toyota Fielder.

The cars comes with security features such as Lane assist, Front drive assist and more cameras that helps the driver to park the car without hitting other cars.

On its part VW Golf stand out with more features compared to others. The car comes with electric parking brake that allows the driver to either control it manually or set it automatically such a way that when the car is on parking mode the driver does not need to release the parking brake; instead, the driver will only press the accelerator and the car releases the parking brake.

While on the high way VW Golf can drive itself if the driver sets the car or enables the front drive system and lane assist. Lane assist functions in a way that it ensures the car remains in the drive way without moving out of yellow line or driving outside the white lane outside the road. The car has fatigue sensor which helps the car to sense when the driver is not concentrating on the road. It is a safety feature which can maintain the car on the road incase the driver sleep on the wheel.

Front drive assist can be set in such a way that the car can control its breaks by not hitting the car in front. For instance if you set the distance between the car and the one in front at 5 meters the car will reduce the speed by autobraking if the driver does not do so when the distance set is approaching. When the car hits 5 meters distance it will brake and if the car in front stops or moves your car will also do the same hence maintaining the distance while in traffic jam.

Unlike many cars with two airbags, VW Golf has 11 airbags hence giving the driver more guarantee if the car roles or is involved in an accident. The torque by the car is unmatched thanks to its DSG 7 speed gearbox powered by its turbo engine. In spite of the power you are guaranteed with fuel economy that comes with its 1200cc engine compounded by its bluemotion technology that auto stop the car in traffic jams.

Difference between Smart Stop Axio and normal Axio

Toyota Axio new shape whose production started towards the end of 2012 comes with both old normal key-button start technology and a new smart stop technology. The difference between the two versions is that whereas the Smart stop Axio auto switch off the engine when you press the break peddle and switches it on when you release, the normal engine will remain running until you switch off the engine. Advantage of the Smart stop Axio is that you save fuel as at every stop in traffic the car ensures its engine is off meaning if your car is on Taxi business you are guaranteed of fuel efficiency especially if you have a driver who does not mind living the engine running throughout on traffic jam. Buy one from us and enjoy fuel efficiency that you have never experienced before. To order one contact 0721598505, email: sales@tdsmotors.co.ke or visit our homepage for photos

Honda Fit Hybrid 2014 review

Have you calculated the amount of money you use in fueling your car the whole year in Nairobi? If not try doing or keeping records of the fuel you use in one month and you will realise that the amount that goes to servicing your car or to buy spares if there is any is  very small compared to the amount used to fuel your car. 

The above should drive someone to think critically about how he/she should salvage that pocket from the cost of fuel in Kenya. Owning an hybrid car is one of the ways one needs to consider if the cost of fuel expenditure is to be achieved in one’s budget. Many countries in Europe, America etc have embraced hybrid and electric cars as a means of cutting cost of emissions as well as keeping money in their pockets while driving around. 

I once drove Honda fit 1500 hybrid from Nairobi to Githunguri then Ruiru and back to Nairobi and the fuel gauge was still reading high. I had fueled it with Kshs 1000. That is and indication that with 1000/= one can drive for more than 50 kms without refueling. If one fuels a non-hybrid car with the same amount of money then he/she must refuel on the way because non-hybrid and hybrid cars cannot compare in terms of fuel consumption.

Falacy

There is a widespread rumours especially in Kenya that hybrid cars are non lasting and that their batteries are very expensive. It is very sad to note the persons who spread the rumours have never owned hybrid cars. Many of the people who purport to know the said cars are quack mechanics who have never gone to mechanical engineering class and are not aware of the changes that are going on globally. A cell of a hybrid battery costs as little as 2700 shillings just like the plug sparks. Some batteries are costly and one cannot claim to attribute that to the reason we should not embrace technology. A gear box for a fielder is, for instance costing Kshs 85000 and one does not replace it often unless it fails. The same applies to hybrid battery; they do not get depleted easily as people think.

The cars go through a thorough research on parts before they are put in use. Our mechanics are just finding them when the cars have already been used and are having good track records. Change is inevitable and you are not the first one to use hybrid cars. Going some years back is that Kenyans refused to buy automatic gear cars because mechanics were advising them not to buy alas the world did not listen to their misinformation.

Buy hybrid fielder, Hybrid, Honda fit etc and see and enjoy the benefits of the new world order. Do not be let behind with the static generation.
