man…hehehe
the fastest car was an altima V6
maybe in the future i will drive the FX50S

my sis was plannig to buy the FX35 but now as can be seen the fuel consumption of the 50 is the same as the 35 2008 model in highways and less by 1 mile per gallon in city driving. and many people when they knew that, changed from 35 to 50S.. so my sis is thinking of changing too from 35 to 50S..and the price difference is not that much if we consider the differences between them.

man, 5.2 is too fast.
The fastest car ever i have driven is 2003 v8 caprice. It takes a second more than the fx50, but still 6.3 seconds is too fast for me to control the car in public streets…
By the way, what is the fastest car that you drove!?

No supercharger in the Jeep SRT-8. Just a big honkin’ Hemi. And yes, it is faster than any FX.

hi man^^^
actually i dont
the SRT can make it in 5 or less
the FX50S can make it in 5.2 or more a bit???
i think the SRT has a supercharger, am I right???
at least it can go with them also the cayenne turbo but of course the FX will be behind ….but at least a 5 liters car can go with 4.8 twin turbo charged and a jeep supercharged is a very big thing.

Waiting from your reply.

Yes, the oil issue is only for turbodiesels.

The engine oil level stays the same.

Turns out it’s a common problem with the new Land Cruiser.

OMG>>the driveshaft???
this is strange…its OK
about OMRAH “rabna yatqabbal menak”
about the paint…if he is the manager!! then for sure he could afford paying the 1200 instead of this stupid fault. i think with this 1200 DHS U can do a lot. Next time dont stand like this. they need U(they need UR money), U dont need them…

hi thatsit(mohamad), i went for ALOMRAH in last 2 weeks.

The shaft is a connecting between the gearbox and the rear differential. And i think its possible from toyota to call all LC’s owners to check with their cars. The guy told me 4 persons complained about this in just this month.

The 1200 Dhs paint protection polish is the way from alfutaim to take easy money from foolish guys like me, well at that time i could go to the manager and he might help me alot but i didnt want to make problems with that guy, he might loose his job or make him pay the money. i dont want to be thd reason of making anyone sad even if i am pissed of.

Hi Mash. Well thank you that told me before to check with the workshop about the strange sound when i stop my LC. The problem was with the shaft as the guy told me and they changed it with new one that costs 8200 Dhs for free. he told that 4 2008 LCs had the same problem.
Something else. The guy offered me to make a paint protection polish by 1200, of course i said no. But they did it although i sayed no. I am realy pissed off ,But since i am a gay and i affraid too much i paid this 1200 Dhs like a jackass people or worse.
