today had a drive for the first time in a imported toyota hilux vigo 2006 model 3.0d4d, it was really odd as i had some expectations it being a hyped car in our culture.
first of all wanted to ask it has no air-conditioning??? the space of the ac button was blank, it did had a hot and cold dial which did absolutely nothing, no heat just normal cold air, no matter where you put the air distribution dial air only blew thorugh front vents and not to windscreen, the screen kept fogging up badly and without air-conditioning or air directed to windshield it was poor.
another thing why does the engine sound so much, i have driven a 2005 prado 3.0d4d same engine but that was absolutely quiet, moreover this car had its abs warning lamp on as well.
but biggest question is how can a rather expensive car which is hyped up here not have airconditioning?? or does it have and i am missing something? any aftermarket workaround?
P.S i know indus vigo have ac button on dashboard and no such problem, but with people saying indus quality sucks and thai is better how can this be? and i dont think the 3.0d4d engine faired well here, but that could also be due to poor maintainece of this car.
