my 2005 innova diesel MT is over 125K km and still fine. no major works. just the tires, shocks, and brake friction pads.
i have had good experience with a 2011 pre-owned innova diesel AT with over 90K km when i bought it.
no "defect" stands out, whether inborn or acquired.
just the usual wear and tear, i.e., tires.
of course, i know that the previous owner took the usual care of it.

The involved engot driver Masyado kase malakas yung arangkada ng montero kaya akala ng iba my SUA, yung 3.2 na montero ko hirap na hirap i drive ng Mother ko at sumisibat bigla at dun na nalilito yung iba sa aggressive na arangkada ng Monty kung hihigpitan lang ang pag kuha ng drivers license sa pinas hindi Lang Sua kuno accident ang maiiwasan natin. .

I have driven a 2.5 A/T Innova before. It was sprightly. Masigla siya. Although we were only two persons on board. Not sure what would it be if it were a whole caboodle.
Toyota’s move to use a 2.8 engine in the current innova was unusual. The reason according to a Toyota PH executive is because we like to carry the whole family during our trips. Well he also said that the engine is “detuned” (so it won’t overpower its bigger brother, the fortuner)

in the highway, the old 2.5 AT had a lower rpm at constant 80 kph, than the MT version.
but in the city, sa MT nako. the AT has a higher shifting rpm compared to it.
in my combined driving, the AT gives me at most, 9-9.5 km/li, while the MT gives me at least 11 km/li.
Dito ako na bad trip sa 2012 2.5 M/T Innova namin. 100kph nasa 2.7K yung reading ng Rpm [emoji30] [emoji30] kaya pag pa 140kph halos pa 4K na yung Rpm
Pero yung 2.8 na manual naka test drive ako hindi ko ma kontrol pag nka Power mode, Impressive. Malayo sa previous [emoji122] [emoji106][emoji846]

Since I've been reminded that it is a TGP article, here it is for reference.

I prefer the AT of the last gen vs the MT coz it had more torque. The MT had to work harder to climb steep grades.
IIRC the current gen Innova with MT also has the engine detuned a bit for torque.
