1998 Daihatsu Terios review from Honduras
"Amazing little set of wheels, bad dealer"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The dealer checked the ignition timing endless times but it kept overheating the ignition coils(three pairs already have been replaced), in order to keep a proper operation of the engine the ignition time is set at three degrees b.d.t.
Dealer had no idea how to fix it; any help with my problem will be really appreciated.
General comments?
Pretty decent car for city drives, parking spaces are no trouble.
You need to keep attention at high speeds, try changing to 16 inch wheels and 245/50/16 tires, it is a great improvement in look as well as in performance.
