The Toyota Wish was a popular MPV model that I used to frequently see on the roads, known for its spacious and practical family-oriented design. This vehicle sold exceptionally well in the Japanese and Asian markets, being produced from 2003 until its discontinuation in 2017, when it was replaced by the Toyota Sienta. It offered two engine options: a 1.8-liter and a 2.0-liter, both delivering smooth power and fuel efficiency, making long-distance drives comfortable. With a body size larger than typical sedans, it could comfortably seat seven people along with luggage, and the trunk had ample space for strollers and shopping bags. The driving experience was light and agile, with a steering wheel that wasn't heavy, making it ideal for city commuting and weekend getaways. Unfortunately, it's no longer in production, but well-maintained used models can still be found in the second-hand market, capable of lasting eight to ten years without issues. Its space design truly made it a standout family car. Overall, the Wish is a classic and practical representative in Toyota's lineup, perfect for families and friends who value flexibility and comfort.

As a frequent family traveler, the Toyota Wish holds a special place in my memory as that incredibly spacious family car that always provided comfort and peace of mind on every trip. It's actually an MPV primarily designed for families, comfortably seating seven without feeling cramped, with foldable rear seats for transporting larger luggage. The seats offer just the right firmness for long drives without fatigue, and it's quite fuel-efficient at around 8 liters per 100 kilometers, making it economical and worry-free. With its moderate height offering good visibility, it's very convenient for children to get in and out. From my years of driving experience, the Wish performs well both in urban areas and on highways, with stable handling and reliable safety systems, though the slightly higher noise level takes some getting used to. Although it's now discontinued, its successor the Sienta is a bit smaller in space, making the Wish's practical design truly missed and a top consideration for family-oriented car buyers.

Having worked in the auto repair industry for many years, I've serviced numerous Toyota Wish models. This car is indeed quite durable, positioned as a family MPV with spacious and practical interior layouts. Common issues include suspension wear or air conditioning malfunctions. Regular maintenance is essential—change the oil and inspect the electrical system. It's recommended to check the brake system every five years. The overall design is simple, with low maintenance costs. Replacing parts is affordable and easy to source.

Why Does the Car Make Abnormal Noises When Driving at Low Speed on Flat Roads?

Abnormal noises when driving at low speed on flat roads may be caused by loose left front components or damaged and deformed parts. Here is more relevant information: 1. Avoid downshifting without blipping the throttle: When downshifting, on gears with synchronizers, you can downshift without blipping the throttle by using a single clutch, but this can easily lead to component wear and premature damage. Therefore, it is recommended to use the double-clutching method with a throttle blip for downshifting, regardless of whether the vehicle has synchronizers. 2. Troubleshooting method: First, lift the vehicle and manually check whether the tires are loose, whether the steering linkage ball joints and tie rod gaps of the left front wheel meet the standards, whether the lower control arm is damaged or deformed, whether the left front shock absorber is leaking or failing, and whether the half-shaft dust boot seal is damaged or leaking. After confirming and eliminating these issues one by one, you can clearly identify the source of the problem. Using the direct assembly replacement method will provide better assurance.

What is the rumbling sound when the Sagitar accelerates?

When the FAW-Volkswagen Sagitar makes a buzzing sound while accelerating, it indicates that the engine oil level is insufficient and needs to be replenished immediately. The abnormal noise will disappear once the oil reaches the normal level. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Acceleration Time: During the 0-100 km/h acceleration test of the Sagitar, the result was 10.18 seconds. Similar to previous dual-clutch transmissions, the protection program does not allow the engine to start at high RPMs during the initial acceleration phase, so the power is not fully released in the beginning. There is no wheel spin or lifting of the front end, ensuring a smooth start. 2. Transmission: Due to the transmission intervention program, the power output is not optimal at the start, and the RPM does not rise quickly. However, the gear shifting speed is indeed impressive, with responsive reactions and no significant time wasted. The power remains ample in the mid-to-late stages. The 1.4T low-power version is nearly 2 seconds faster, so the Sagitar does not have a significant advantage in the 0-100 km/h acceleration competition.

What are the impacts of a flood-damaged car?

Flood-damaged cars are prone to damage in components such as circuits, electrical systems, and precision instruments. Here is more relevant information: 1. Impact of engine flooding: When the water level during wading is higher than the engine air intake, water can directly enter the cylinders, forming a mixture of air and water. Air is compressible, but water is not. This means that when the crankshaft pushes the connecting rod to compress the piston, the water cannot be compressed, causing the connecting rod to deform and bend due to the resistance of the water. If the owner attempts to restart the vehicle after the engine stalls due to water ingress, the immense reverse force can cause the bent connecting rod to rub against the cylinder block, instantly rupturing the engine block, resulting in exorbitant repair costs. 2. Impact on interior: When the interior is submerged in water, such as when the water level rises above the doors, the vehicle's interior is likely to get wet. Rainwater is not clean and contains many impurities. The post-flood car interior becomes a highly humid greenhouse environment, which is ideal for mold growth. If the vehicle is not dried promptly, mold can quickly ruin the fabric and leather materials inside the car.

What are the considerations when purchasing a second-hand parking space?

Considerations when purchasing a second-hand parking space include checking whether a property certificate can be processed, noting that civil air defense garages are prohibited from being sold, understanding that provident fund loans cannot be used to purchase parking spaces, and ensuring that relevant parking space details are written into the contract. Below is a detailed introduction regarding second-hand car transactions: 1. Overview: The main contents of second-hand car transactions include preliminary evaluation work, technical condition assessment, consignment, replacement services, price evaluation, and transaction practices. The main procedures involve vehicle-related formalities, maintenance and repair procedures, and tax-related formalities. 2. Relevant background: On May 10, 2021, the Ministry of Public Security held a press conference to announce 12 convenience measures for deepening the reform of "delegating power, improving regulation, and upgrading services" in public security traffic management and "doing practical things for the people." The Ministry of Public Security, in conjunction with the Ministry of Commerce and the State Taxation Administration, will implement the "cross-province general handling" of second-hand car transaction registrations for small non-operational passenger vehicles.

Why Did GAC Trumpchi GS7 Discontinue Production?

GAC Trumpchi GS7 was discontinued for the following reasons: 1. Internal Competition Between Sibling Models: First, the pricing strategy of the GS7 was problematic. Given the minimal differences in configuration, consumers naturally gravitated toward the higher-positioned GS8. Additionally, the GS7 was only available as a 5-seater, significantly reducing its practicality compared to the 7-seat GS8. 2. Lack of Design Innovation: Many automakers cascade design elements from premium models to their mid-range or entry-level offerings, and the Trumpchi GS7 clearly fell victim to this approach. Apart from its slightly smaller dimensions, the GS7's design was virtually indistinguishable from the GS8, resulting in a lack of novelty between the two. The scaled-down proportions also meant the GS7 failed to exude the commanding presence of its larger sibling, making it appear notably less impressive in person. 3. Overconfident Pricing Strategy: The top-tier GS7's price point overlapped with mid-range variants of the Honda CR-V 1.5T. In terms of brand reputation and technological prowess, the CR-V held undeniable advantages over the GS7. When pitted against established joint-venture competitors in its segment, the GS7 essentially had no compelling selling points.

What are the impacts of a car being flooded?

When a car is flooded, it can cause the following adverse effects: 1. Damage to vulnerable parts: Circuits, electrical components, precision instruments, thermal and sound insulation materials, and oils are highly susceptible to damage. 2. Damage to valuable components, leading to expensive repairs: The engine, transmission, computer system, audio equipment, wiring, airbags, steering system, etc., may be damaged, and subsequent repairs are generally costly. 3. Electronic system malfunctions: Modern vehicles are typically composed of numerous electronic devices, which lack professional waterproofing, especially in urban SUVs where the electronic wiring is essentially the same as in ordinary sedans without any waterproof treatment. 4. Short circuits in electronic modules: After water exposure or flooding, the engine's related electronic modules are highly prone to short circuits. The vehicle's control computer, which acts like the brain of the car, is usually located in the engine compartment and is mostly given simple dust-proof treatment. When soaked by rainwater, the vehicle's central computer and wiring on the body are highly likely to short circuit. If these modules malfunction, it can range from a single function failure to severe vehicle damage or even a fire caused by the short circuit.
